Teams like the San Francisco 49ers, despite being draft-deviant for the past five years, haven't shown a direct link between draft 'reachiness' and team success.
Only a few draft picks, like Dre Greenlaw, have significantly impacted the 49ers' success, indicating that being 'reachy' may not always lead to benefits for the team.
The example of the Rams, who have been deviating from consensus boards in their draft picks, requires a deeper analysis to understand if such 'reaching' has actually contributed to their success.
Reconstructing the 'reaches' made by teams like the Rams year by year is essential to evaluate the impact of deviating from consensus boards in the NFL draft.
