Long-career hit

Frankie Smith became a 9-season, 103-game NFL player after going #104. The retained-value model still ranks him 55th of 62 for Ken Herock because ATL only got 0 of those games.

His retained-value contribution score (opportunity plus quality plus recognition, with related outcomes collapsed inside each bucket) is -2.05. This is a per-pick accountability metric, separate from Ken Herock's leaderboard composite θ.

Full-career context prevents this from being labeled as a bad talent pick: the negative model score is about retained team value, not whether the draft identified an NFL-caliber player.

The walkthrough below shows which bucket carried the pick: playing time, value quality, or league honors.

Did this pick move Ken Herock's grade?

The first chart removes the time axis: every Ken Herock pick is sorted by retained contribution across opportunity, quality, and recognition. Frankie Smith totals -2.05. 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 Frankie Smith return vs. his slot?

Each mark below is one player's model value above slot. Light gray marks are slot-similar peers: DBs drafted within ±5 picks of Frankie Smith since 2010 (17 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.
