Travis Hunter — football, CB/WR, Jacksonville Jaguars, age 22. One of 82 entries, each scored on four separate axes rather than given a single grade.

Accessibility lands mid-table at 60. The obvious cards have moved, but there are still parallels and lesser versions priced sensibly if you're willing to hunt. That hunting is where the actual work of this one sits.

Card upside (78) sits above the breakout score (60), which is the rarer shape. It means the cards look primed to react even though the step up in performance is less certain — usually because market size, playing style or an existing collector base is doing work the stat line isn't.

Set against the 14 football breakout picks scored here, its breakout of 60 ranks 11th of 14, card upside 78 ranks 10th, accessibility 60 ranks 7th, and risk 55 is the 12th-lowest. The closest thing to it on the numbers is Shedeur Sanders, which scores 62 and 78 on the same two axes — if you're weighing one against the other, the difference is in the reasoning rather than the scores.

The window is about six months. Long enough that one bad month doesn't settle it, short enough that you're betting on a specific stretch rather than a career. Six-month positions are where people most often forget they set a deadline.

Risk at 55 is the middle of the range: real ways to fail, none of them exotic. A role change, a slow start, or the hobby simply deciding to care about something else for a while.

How to read these four numbers

Every entry gets four separate scores instead of one grade, because a single grade hides the thing you needed. Full explanation in the guide: how to spot a breakout before the cards move.
