Information Synthesis in the NFL Draft

Information Synthesis in the NFL Draft

Apr. 14, 2023

How do sport management professionals adjust when their many data sources (data analytics, scouting reports, college performance etc.) do not align? Bradley Baker developed an activity for students in his class, Introduction to Sports Analytics, to develop data strategies for this situation. 

The activity simulates the experience of preparing for the National Football League (NFL) draft, and is a resource for all educators in sports management who are teaching students how to make decisions using various types of data.
