The NFL Draft is structured in a way that that should allow less successful Squads to bridge the gap with more successful Squads. There is a direct benefit associated to losing and the worst Squads have the earliest opportunities to draft top collegiate prospects. In an effort to quantify that benefit and project where top prospects will land in Upcoming month’s draft, Every of the Division’s 32 Squads is ranked by Points values, which were determined by the trade value chart arranged by Sportsline’s R.J. White.
It should come as no surprise that there is a higher Points value associated with the earliest picks and, therefore, the rankings skew in that direction very Prompt. One way to think about this exercise is that a Club’s ranking by points value should be equal to their position in the Primary Stage. For example, the Pittsburgh Steelers Picking No. 20 overall, so their points value ranking should, in theory, also be No. 20.
