C·pick 15
Drafted by SF · Auburn
1968
Forrest Blue, 49ers, 1968. The only center in the top 18 of the entire 1967–present chart. The C column above pick 18 is white space — Mike Pouncey (#15, 2011, classified here as G), Frank Ragnow (#20, 2018), Creed Humphrey (#63, 2021), and the rest land lower. Teams almost never spend a high pick on the snapper.
No rarity score — the model compares each pick to its predictions for earlier seasons, and drafts from 1967–1969 sit before that runway is long enough.
Each year's estimate uses only that year's draft and the years before it — no peeking ahead. The line smooths across neighboring picks and seasons so a single oddball draft doesn't dominate. The shaded band is the model's 90% uncertainty range.
