The purpose of this post is to examine:
How much draft capital has been invested in different position groups over the last 10 years? Are there trends in investment? Sources:
Draft history Draft pick values Here I looked at results for the 2010-2019 drafts, covering the last 10 years. To value draft capital, I focused on the Chase Stuart model, but I report the Jimmy Johnson model results below as well.
What I’ve been reading:

What the nerds mean when the say running backs don’t matter…and other great bits.
