For those curious, this is a great video highlighting why these drinks are beyond fucked (and DANGEROUS) to sell with no restrictions - https://t.co/OBz0mfPSFp

It’s crazy how much emphasis they put on helmet-to-helmet hits that year, and this is a textbook example of one. But let’s be real we’re never getting that call against the Chiefs… especially not in the playoffs.
What is the hit rate on first-round WRs?
If the Browns don’t take a WR at No. 6, they can just take one at No. 24, right?
I went back and charted all the WRs taken in the first round of the NFL Draft since 2016 (the last decade). How many of them were hits?
For this study, a player is considered a “hit” if he became his team’s WR1 within the first 3 seasons and/or received a contract extension.
Here’s what I found.
Hit Rates (42 total WRs drafted in the 1st round):
🔸Total 1st Round: 17 of 42 for 40.5%
🔸Top-10 Pick: 9 of 12 for 75.0%
🔸Picks 11-20: 3 of 11 for 27.3%
🔸Picks 21-32: 5 of 19 for 26.3%
The difference in odds to “hit” on a WR between picking one at 6 and picking one at 24 drops from 75.0% to 26.3%.
The odds decrease by 65%!
That’s why the Browns need to take Carnell Tate at No. 6.
