2026-27 points-league draft guide

By Our Numbers

Instead of quoting experts, this page compares where players are being drafted (FantasyPros consensus ADP) with where our own projections, scored with real league settings including double-doubles, triple-doubles, technicals and ejections, say they should go. A positive gap means the projections like the player more than the market does.

Projections say: draft earlier

The biggest gaps where our three projection boards (trebevicka23 scoring) rank a player above his ADP.

Projections say: let him slide

Players going well before their projected points finish. Many are injury discounts the projections don't price in, or category-league darlings.

Projected top-140, not in the ADP top 156

Free value in the last rounds: our projections have these players inside the top 140, but they're outside the consensus ADP top 156 (a dash means no ADP at all).

Projection rank is the average of our ESPN, Yahoo and FantasyPros boards; a player missing from a board is left out of the average. A player missing from all three is outside our top 156, so his gap shows as "≤", meaning at least that big. Projections don't account for injuries, so check the OUT tags on the draft boards.
