Columns show selecting teams in first-selection order. Multiple picks in one round stay together; replay follows overall pick order. Original ownership, where recorded, appears separately in the report cards.

Complete manager report cards

Every selection is listed below, without replay or hover. Year-one points minus the average for nearby overall picks (±6 slots) in completed seasons gives “vs slot.” Baselines pool in-scope leagues separately for redraft, startup, and rookie drafts. A letter grade requires at least five graded teams. Team grades rank average points above or below slot within this draft: A/B/C/D/F in 20% bands; tied averages share the best rank in their tie. Imports and incomplete scoring seasons receive no grade.
