THREAD: Let's take a look at the WR from the 2018 & 2019 classes that fit into our range of 6'0-6'2. Take a look at the parameters in my pinned tweet for what makes a 'Hit' at the 80% mark. WR we will look at:

Dante Pettis-18
DJ Moore-18
Calvin Ridley-18
AJ Brown-19
JJAW-19
Dante Pettis

Highly contested player heading into his 2nd year. Clearly has been a total flop. In my data, he comes up short in a few areas: BMI 24.99, Yd Dom 18.2%, and Adj Age Hit Rate. In rookie drafts of 2018, Dante Pettis would have received a big ❌ from me.
DJ Moore

He checked all the boxes for our categories. You dont need me to tell you he's a stud. The point is to show how our process is effective. Moore's closest comp as a prospect would have been Amari Cooper. Which has pretty much come to fruition. HERE'S THE KICKER!! cont...
If you take all of our normal parameters for 6'0-6'2 WR, but increase the BMI to > 28.05 (Moore has 28.48), there is a 100% hit rate on a WR1 season (top 12). Those WR include:
D. Adams
Juju Smith-Schuster
Michael Crabtree
Hakeem Nicks
D. Hopkins
Dez Bryant
Andre Johnson
AJ Brown
Calvin Ridley

Obviously a stud. He meets all of our criteria for a 'hit' at the 80% mark. The only gripe for Ridley is that he comes in low on our BMI parameters at 25.4. (min 25.25) You could classify him as a minor outlier in that regard but fits clearly into our range.
AJ Brown

Basically everything that was said for DJ Moore - reiterate it here for AJ Brown. You dont need me to tell you he is a top notch dynasty asset regardless of position. But coming out, he checked all of our parameters with flying colors.. cont
Like DJ Moore, AJ Brown was a prime candidate for the WR1 range due to the elevated BMI and he has already achieved that mark. A comp for AJ Brown would have been Andre Johnson or Dez Bryant. Not bad company to be held with.
JJ Arcega-Whiteside

JJAW we would have had as an ❌ and he was not one of our parameters 'misses' based on the list I gave in the initial thread (5 guys). But JJAW came extremely close and I am not afraid to say I probably would have been willing to take a chance on him. cont..
JJAW hits all requirements except for the Adjusted Age Hit Rate which he comes in just shy of the >20.5% mark. One issue is we did not get a 40 time from him. There is a chance he would have ran outside the 4.6 requirement. Closest comp is Chad Jackson from UF '06.
In Conclusion, our 8 step process would have had a 100% success rate on each of these WR from 2018-2019. Stay tuned as we will look at other WR height ranges and dive into the 2021 rookie WR.
