How scoring works
We take each analyst's last published mock before the draft and score it against the actual Round 1 order. One rubric, every year, no adjustments after the fact.
Step 01 Final mock only
We lock in the last board each analyst published before the first
pick. No revisions, no averages.
Step 02 Score vs actual
Exact hits, player hits (wrong team), position hits, and proximity —
each worth different points.
Step 03 Trust rating
Scores normalize to a 0–100 trust number. S through D tier. Same
thresholds, every season.
