"Best Player Available" and Positional Value do not have to be mutually exclusive. So many fail to understand this. Think outside the box.
You can develop a scoring system that takes into account:
- Roster Need (Go 80 deep by position and depth)
- Positional value (ranking against others of the same position and type)
- Measurables (combine stats, height/weight, hand size)
- Talent (body of work, performance, stats, accomplishments)
- Risk (injury, off the field)
- Intelligence (football IQ, general IQ)
- Intangibles (leadership, personality, work ethic)
Grade each prospect. Grade each FA. Update your grades regularly. Compare with those you trust. Combine grades......
AND BOOM.
You have a formula to determine the "Best Player Available."
