Market edge
Draft edge lives in disagreement: players the room drafts later than they should go, and names the room reaches for. This board measures the gap between the market's ADP and the on-court results — the raw material of every steal.

Read the board
- Pick a direction
'Biggest steals' (the default) surfaces players the market drafted well after where they finished; 'Biggest reaches' flips it.
- Read the columns
Our rank is our forward projection. The season-rank column is where he actually finished. ADP is the market's draft price on your platform. Edge = ADP minus his finish: green means the room got him cheap, red means it overpaid.
- Mind the 'Read' and the gems
The Read column is our one-line interpretation of each gap, and a green 'gem' chip marks startable players the market barely rosters — waiver material hiding in a draft tool.
The offseason caveat, in plain terms
Right now the board says it plainly at the top: 2026-27 preseason ADP doesn't exist yet, so the edge is computed against last season's ADP and last season's finish — a historical read on how the market missed, not our live call on this year's draft. The moment platforms open 2026-27 mock drafts (late August / early September), this board switches to the real market and becomes a live weapon. Until then, treat it as a study of the market's habits.
- Rookies and returners don't appear — a row needs both an ADP and a real finish to measure a gap.
- The ADP column follows your active league's platform — the market you actually draft against, not a blended average.
