DraftSeason story
2025 · Commissioner's Premier Cup VII
The receiver strength did not carry over to RB
EmIvyM began with TE in round 2, then a receiver and running back in round 3, but the returns were uneven. Jaxon Smith-Njigba supplied 240.9 lineup points in 13 starts; Omarion Hampton supplied 66 in five. Across weeks 1-14, including acquisitions, WR led the league at 13.2 points per start versus the peer median of 10.8, while RB averaged 11.4 versus 14.3. Six drafted backs did not produce the receiver group's positional strength.

The draft allocation and the realized position output are separate observations. Injury and availability effects are not separated; low realized scoring is not a decision-quality grade.
Supporting facts
- Whole draft: 1 TE, 5 WR, 6 RB, 1 QB, 1 DEF, 1 K.
- Round 3, pick 35: Omarion Hampton; 5 original-spell starts / 66 points; all own starts 5 / 66 including later reacquisitions.
- Round 5, pick 52: RJ Harvey; 5 original-spell starts / 55.4 points; all own starts 5 / 55.4 including later reacquisitions.
- Round 8, pick 95: J.K. Dobbins; 9 original-spell starts / 96.6 points; all own starts 9 / 96.6 including later reacquisitions.
- Round 9, pick 106: Cam Skattebo; 5 original-spell starts / 79.8 points; all own starts 5 / 79.8 including later reacquisitions.
- Round 10, pick 111: Tank Bigsby; 0 original-spell starts / 0 points; all own starts 0 / 0 including later reacquisitions.
- Round 12, pick 143: Ray Davis; 0 original-spell starts / 0 points; all own starts 0 / 0 including later reacquisitions.
- Fixed RB slots: 319.2 points, 28 occupied starts and 28 opportunities. Drafted-player totals may include FLEX; the slot comparison does not.
- Other managers' median points per occupied RB start: 14.3; this manager: 11.4. The season slot result includes later acquisitions, not only the named draft picks.
- Jaxon Smith-Njigba: round 3, pick 34; 13 original-draft-spell starts / 240.9 points. All-own starts, including later reacquisitions: 13 / 240.9 points.
- Omarion Hampton: round 3, pick 35; 5 original-draft-spell starts / 66 points. All-own starts, including later reacquisitions: 5 / 66 points.
- RB fixed slots, 2025 weeks 1-14: 319.2 points / 28 occupied starts in 28 opportunities; stored rate 11.4, other-11 manager median 14.3. Rates in the body round the underlying points/start ratio. Full-season slots include acquisitions and exclude FLEX.
- WR fixed slots, 2025 weeks 1-14: 554.7 points / 42 occupied starts in 42 opportunities; stored rate 13.21, other-11 manager median 10.81. Rates in the body round the underlying points/start ratio. Full-season slots include acquisitions and exclude FLEX.
- Drafted-player contributions can include FLEX and stop at first departure unless explicitly described as all-own; they are not the numerator for fixed-position output. Allocation and realized scoring do not establish causes or decision quality.
- Rationale: The draft had no round-1 selection, began with Brock Bowers in round 2 and included six RBs. Contrasting contributions and full positional rates is not a causal draft grade.
- 1 starts (8.5 known points) have uncertain acquisition origin.
Comparison and window
Other 11 managers in this 2025 league, complete weeks 1–14, points per occupied RB start. No other season or format is pooled.
