What’s a draft hangover without me mocking your picks?
I used my aforementioned system/board to smash together everyone’s composite scores for each player they drafted. For players not on my board, I gave them a flat score of 45, which would’ve been 227th on my board. My board included all BA Handbook prospects above a 40/M, the Top 30 J15 IFAs, and the top ‘Professional Free Agents’ as they’re now known. This didn’t include MLB players almost at all, so taking MLB players(which was a separate tab on my draft sheet) didn’t help your score unfortunately, and another caveat is the system LOVED the Top 6 picks more than the rest of the draft. There was a difference of 20.70 between players 1 and 7 on my board and a difference of 20.75 for players 7-343.
But I still think that this is an interesting measure of draft success, with the qualifiers of picks made and I even threw in an ‘average pick’ to discern who draft more early than late and vice versa. And yes, I had a good draft, because this is according to the board I used(which I didn’t even follow religiously), so like if I didn’t, I’ve probably got bigger problems.
And if you like to squint, here’s all the picks:
Baby Seals- I think Fred is going to be very happy with taking Skenes there.
Ball Busters- The ‘Avg Pick’ is really all you need to see here.
Banocolates- Really liked Jeff’s middle picks. The end, not so much.
BROB’s Barnacles- When you have 20 picks, you’re going to amass some talent.
Danimals- Dan’s second round was an absolute coup. Love em all.
Fajita Eaters- I brought the bat to the draft with me to remind me why I wasn’t picking much.
G.I. Zo’s- Quality over Quantity, baby. Except Tai Peete, he sucks.
Kelly’s Heroes- Really liked JK’s haul in the first two rounds. Sammy Stafura sucks though.
Motley Shue- There’s picking early and often, and then there’s picking late and little.
Nellamaniacs- Didn’t like Nelly’s draft, and not just because of Jacob Gonzalez!
Pro Bowlers- Pat figured out how to hijack my grading. Make one good pick, drop the mic.
Rollin Goats- Very Cale draft here. Loved the Emil and Soto picks.
The Big Hurts- See Shue, Motley.
The Big Units- Carroll is finding his footing on drafting. Solid effort this year.
Tom Cats- Tom should, and will, wear this score as a badge of honor.
Your Mom- Ray took a bunch of players I liked, and now, I have to hate them.
