Lots of analytical draft analysis comes with a lot of uncertainty due to small sample sizes and the league changing over time. Hence I thought of a method to compute the value of draft picks intrinsically. Here it is:

I don't want to be too dramatic and heroize Mahomes too much, but beyond this it can be noted that he received snaps to his feet all night and in a do-or-die drive his other receiver ran 10 yards backwards to set up 2nd&13 instead of 2nd&short. Unreal.

I'm not sure what to make of the fact the 49ers chose the much worse quarterback in 2005 and yet they've made it to the Super Bowl more often than the Packers since then. Having an elite QB *can* be bad when it masks organisational deficiencies, because you never bottom out.
