Update: He hasn't blown it yet!
Cleveland has made it through Training Camp without being a massive disappointment yet. Despite his high volatility, he only shifted one point, and that was towards the positive. Great job Cleveland! Everyone is watching!
Cleveland Brown was a steal just like Felix Perkins last season . Both were passed up early in the first round by the best owners in the game, but yet they managed to beat all the odds that were stacked against them as statically there is less than one of these players each draft. The chances are 1 in 2500..... of landing these types of players . To do it two drafts in a row in the hardest league speaks volumes about GM raymattison21. As that number is astronomical !
Both players have above 96 volatility , a scary number for most scouts, but fearless "old naggy" once again struck gold.
This is nothing new for teams that run under "old naggy" as he has done this before in mfn one when he first joined that league. Hitting on hall of famers CB Waldron and RB Quinn in successive drafts. Both ridiculously high in volatility and overall. Still, same result.
Wait there's more he also hit on his first draft pick ever a 1.7 LB with volatility nearing 100. The best part was those three picks were all selected without the volatility rating being shown yet.
"Old naggy" has stated his drafting secrets in the forums many times, but it seems to fall on deaf ears as many others routinely bust on early picks with high volatility . In these posts he has hinted towards the players current ratings in combination with their volatility actually creates a "tell" of whether a player will generally trend up or down.
Some will call all this rubbish and just dumb luck, but GM raymattison21 hopes jdb is looking at the volatility rating and how it is used as "old naggy " has claimed drafting is too safe in general, and hopes volatility ratings will change throughout a players career .
Until then this third person evaluation finishes with a "happy drafting everyone" and "good luck"!
