CFB Draft Review 2026

The B1G West Memorial FFL draft of August 30: 170 picks, 10 teams, graded with the same numbers the live board ran on draft night โ€” every player's projection and value over replacement under this league's own scoring (two starting QBs, 6-point passing TDs), plus Yahoo's pooled ADP for what the market thought. The full snake grid is on the league dashboard; how these rosters rank now, and all season, is on the league power rankings.

Steal of the draft
Gunner Stockton โ€” Mike Locksley

This board's #25 lasted to pick 131 (round 14), +106 spots past his value and worth 76 points over replacement.

Biggest reach
Ryan Wingo โ€” Noah's Nice Team

Taken at pick 26, 93 spots ahead of this board's #119 and 71 ahead of his ADP.

Late-round find
Jayden Maiava โ€” Cameron's Choice Team

Round 10, pick 97, and still worth 82 points over replacement โ€” the most value taken in the double-digit rounds.

Yahoo Team Grades

What Yahoo said the moment the draft ended (2026-08-30), kept as-is for the record: its letter grades, its power score for every roster, and the season it projected.

GordStats vs Yahoo

The same ten rosters, both verdicts. The two disagree because Yahoo prices every league the same and this one is not priced like the average league; ฮ” is how many spots higher GordStats ranks the roster. The biggest argument is Max's Majestic Team: Yahoo's #9, this board's #2 โ€” the gap is what two starting quarterbacks and 6-point passing touchdowns are worth. It goes the other way on I Stand With Diggs: Yahoo's #2, only #8 here.
