Did this pick move Bob Quinn's grade?

The first chart removes the time axis: every Bob Quinn pick is sorted by retained contribution across opportunity, quality, and recognition. Kenny Golladay totals +1.80. The second chart breaks that same contribution into the seasons when the evidence arrived. Opportunity and quality can move separately, which keeps high-snap, low-AV profiles from looking cleaner than they are.

How much retained production did Kenny Golladay return vs. his slot?

Each mark below is one player's model value above slot. Light gray marks are slot-similar peers: WRs drafted within ±5 picks of Kenny Golladay since 2010 (20 players).The score is the retained production/value bucket from the pick-residual model: on-team AV plus AV-rate quality, adjusted for draft slot, position, and era. Opportunity snaps and league honors are excluded.
