Consensus board vs. draft day: the full OT class, charted.
The Steal
Jaelyn Duncan was ranked OT10 on the consensus board (#102 overall) but lasted until pick 186, where the Tennessee Titans took him in Round 6. A 84-spot fall, the largest gap between consensus and draft day of any OT in the class. Behind him, Dawand Jones (+59) and Ryan Hayes (+22) also outlasted their rankings.
The Conviction Pick
The New York Jets took Carter Warren at pick 120, 23 spots ahead of his #143 consensus rank. That's the league's strongest disagreement with the public board at the position. Teams showed similar conviction on Wanya Morris (18 spots) and Asim Richards (17 spots).
The Cliff
After Carter Warren went at pick 120, the next OT didn't come off the board for 32 picks. That's the sharpest drop in the class.
The Spend
Teams spent 21 picks on OT, 7 of them in the first two rounds. That's below the position's average of 24 since 2018.
The Bet
The Tennessee Titans spent more draft capital on OT than any other club: picks 11 and 186, 43% of their total draft investment.
The One Who Slipped
Joey Fisher, ranked #241 on the consensus board, went undrafted through all 259 picks.
