The following is a list of the “Political Players” in the 2017 AKleg Fantasy League as determined by the team managers during the league draft.
Each manager submitted a ranked list of eighty political players. Some managers chose to use the sample draft list instead of generating their own list and those selections were not counted towards any statistical data.
“Draft Score” is a measure of how sought after a player was in the draft. Draft Score is determined by assigning 80 points to players who appear first on a manager’s draft list and 1 point for those who appear last. For example, if a player appears on two draft lists in the second position, they would be given a Draft Score of 158.
“Times Picked” is an indication of how many league managers included a particular player on their draft list. The most any player could receive is 32 Times Picked because there were eight managers who used the sample draft list to determine their teams.
