What is the most valuable pick in the 2015 NFL draft?

Everyone has talked about the value of picks in terms of pure player production, but there is another obvious metric that few people talk about: money.

With the NFL setting a slotted salary system that pretty much gives no deviation for pay any more, it has become really easy to see which picks out preform their contracts. Well, it is even more obvious now because the financial scientists at Overthecap.com came up with a incredibly detailed report about it which you can find here.

In case you want the brief version just about the Tennessee Titans, this is what they say is the most valuable pick in the draft:

"The biggest benefit to drafting in the NFL is the top of the second round.  This is somewhat expected as the NFL put a relatively large devaluation between the end of the 1^st and start of 2^nd round despite there being little difference in performance.  The top four picks in the second round are expected to give a team about $1.65 million per year in benefits."

That is good news for the Tennessee Titans who (everyone should know by know) own the top pick of day two of the 2015 NFL Draft.

I encourage you to read this piece in full because it describes just how undervalued of a pick the 33rd pick in the draft is and it lends some value to the argument that it is one of the most coveted picks in the draft.
