Calijah Kancey
6' 1" 281 pounds
NFL.com prospect grade = 6.39
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/calijah-kancey/32004b41-4e04-6143-5a2e-df476a2bfc64

As for that article's attempt to compare
Calijah to Aaron Donald, far-fetched, just
a hope, not likely to be fulfilled as Aaron
has played like one of the greatest draft
picks of all time:

Aaron Donald career stats
6' 1" 280 pounds,
13th pick of 2014 draft
PFR AV agerage = 138/9 = 15.33
Career low 2022 PFR AV 8,
only played 11 games,
pro bowl every year,
all-pro every year 2015 to 2021
https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/D/DonaAa00.htm

Aaron Donald 2014 nfl.com prospect grade = 5.90
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/aaron-donald/3200444f-4e13-4977-da01-4e2f082de38b

Obviously, nfl.com drastically under-
rated Aaron Donald who, based on
how he has performed should have
been graded at somewhere between
7.5 and 8.0.

nfl.com prospect grades*

8.0 The perfect prospect
7.3-7.5 Perennial All-Pro
7.0-7.1 Pro Bowl talent
6.7-6.9 Year 1 starter
6.5-6.6 Boom-or-bust potential
6.40-6.49 Will become good starter within 2 years
6.30-6.39 Will eventually be plus starter
6.20-6.29 Will eventually be average starter
6.10-6.19 Good backup with the potential to develop into starter
6.0-6.09 Traits or talent to be above-average backup
5.80-5.99 Average backup or special-teamer
5.60-5.69 Candidate for bottom of roster or practice squad
5.50-5.59 Priority undrafted free agent
No grade Grade not yet available

*Grades before 2014 were on a different grading system

What that system was? I've been unable
to find nfl.com prospect grades prior to
2014.
