I believe this is the final tweak that I will be making to the #Bulletprospectprocess for WR's and can settle on this for the long term.
Lets take a spin through the classes for WR's drafted from rounds 1-3 starting in 2010.
Lets dive in.

Possible Grades are:
Transcendent > Generational > Bulletproof > Coinflip > Maybe > Bust.
Inputs - Draft Capital, MS of Receiving Yards, Yards/Team Pass Attempt, draft age, early declare, BOA, and in rare instances athleticism. These grades apply zero context.
Here is 2010.

I mentioned earlier that these grades include zero context. I actually thought that Jalen Reagor was a better prospect than the 'model' claimed because he had one of the worst catchable pass rates I can recall seeing his final year of college.
I manually adjusted him to BPP.

Laviska Shenault had a strange circumstance that prevented him from hitting the BPP tier as well. So I manually adjusted him to BPP
When Laviska missed games, one of the other WRs dominated to an absurd level compared to the rest of that WR's season. I felt it skewed the stats

I also let Jerry Jeudy's subpar production slide based on him playing in one of the most draft capital heavy WR rooms in CFB history.
I gave him the bump and not Ruggs because Jeudy ACTUALLY produced.... Ruggs did not. That was a big distinction for me.

From 2003 - 2017 the current hit rates at each grade are:
BPP+ - 25/31 = 81%
Coinflip - 28/63 = 44%
Maybe - 8/34 = 24%
Bust - 5/59 = 8%

This was a thread testing the process if you are curious. The last tweak wasnt covered in it, but I think it should give you an idea how we got here. haha https://twitter.com/DFBeanCounter/status/1307190353234067458?s=20
