I’ve created my own proprietary formula (seen below in the 2nd post) for ranking various position groups based on their grades and other inputs. The formula is a work in progress from year to year (though I like it right now). Results not guaranteed.
Rankings are most reliable within position groups (Bigs, Wings, Point Guards), but can be used to make decisions between positions as well.
The ratings have been centered on 0 (for this year and every year going forward), with 0 being a fairly average player.
