Schwartz had a strong pro-day performance, posting an elite 40-yard dash time around 4.3 seconds.

For weight and 40 time, I’m using the numbers from his pro day, with a 0.03-second penalty added to the 40 time to reflect the uncertainty of pro-day timed measurements.
I also matched the prospect’s market share of total team yards and touchdowns to past draft prospects.įor Schwartz's draft position, I’m using an estimate based on the mock data collected at. All of these data points come from the prospect’s best collegiate season. The metrics for PCA are: rushing attempts per game, rushing yards per game, rushing touchdowns per game, receptions per game and market share of team receptions. I found the closest statistically comparable players by the euclidean distance between the players' principle components, listed in the top 10 below. The rest of the matching features were transformed by principal component analysis (PCA). For undrafted players, I assigned a numerical draft position of 300. Then, I filtered the total universe of past prospects by those who had draft positions, weight and 40 times within a 10th percentile in either direction of Anthony Schwartz. First, I converted all the most statistically relevant stats and measurables to percentiles based on the thousands of prospects who have entered the NFL since 2006 at each position. The comps below were derived from a two-step process. Without the NFL Scouting Combine this season, the important measurables like weight and 40-yard dash will be reported through the various pro days that will be taking place over the next few weeks. In this analysis, I will use some of our advanced stats for comparison but primarily rely on traditional stats to go back further to compare the 2021 prospects to draft classes going back to 2006. PFF data scientist Eric Eager has done tremendous work building college-to-pro projections, which are built off the robust college data we’ve collected since 2014 and have been applied to exercises like building an “Analytics” Mock.

This will be the first in a series of articles comparing the 2021 draft prospects to prior years and picking out the most similar comps with a clearly delineated and quantifiable method. Comparing current NFL draft prospects to those of years past is standard procedure in draft evaluation, though most comparisons are built on the memory recall and subjective opinion of the particular evaluator.
