It's obvious in Baalke's case. A good portion of his decision making favors the LB and RB positions early, with T mixed in there. While other positions such as WR (0.0%) and DT (0.0%) are considered an afterthought. This is a good base to gauge which way Baalke will more than likely lean in the draft next month.

So, when he does something like, pass up on a WR at 17 or a DT at 17 in favor of an OT, EDGE or CB it shouldn't surprise anybody. Or, when he waits until day 3 to select a WR, it shouldn't surprise anybody. It especially shouldn't surprise anybody if he selects another RB in RD3. 

It clearly tells you that...

Agreed, the data on the top teams where their gms made 35+ picks probably gives some merit.  Especially if there is a definitive outlier like the Rams and WRs.

I commented on his data just now. Maybe he'll redo it or make an adjustment. There's no way between Baalke's five years as a 49er and his three years here as a Jaguar that he's only had 12 selections within the top 100 to be utilized as a General Manager. The math doesn't math there.

I am already at 14 picks within the top 100 for Baalke in just San Francisco before 2015. So, yeah, that guy's math is [BLEEP] pretty much. Missing a good chunk of Baalke's history.
