Every trade ever made and every waiver claim that paid off. 75 executed trades, 2,193 pickups, 8 seasons. Trades sourced from the league's manual trade log; pickups + roster data from ESPN.
Career Trade Record
For every trade, we sum what each side’s players scored after the deal. Started surplus only counts points the receiver actually started (no credit for bench-hoarding); total surplus counts every point the player produced. Sorted by started surplus.

Career Pickup Score
For every successful waiver claim or free-agent add, we count the points the player scored from that week onward. Started points only counts what the picker actually played — stripping out the bench-hoarder effect (looking at you, anyone who scooped Baker Mayfield and never started him).

Worst FAAB Busts All-Time
High bid, low return. Ranked by dollars-per-point, so a $40 waiver who scored 2 points stings more than $20 for nothing.

$0–$1 Steals
Free pickups and one-buck bids that produced. Sorted by points actually started.
Came Crawling Back
The same owner picked up the same player twice in one season. Implies they dropped him in between, then changed their mind. Gap points = what he scored on someone else’s roster while he was gone.
Most Active Wheeler-Dealer
Some managers move every week. Some never move at all.
Worst Single Start/Sit Calls All-Time
One week, one roster, one regret. Delta = optimal lineup score minus actual score, computed against league slot rules (no FLEX shenanigans).
| Rk | Manager | Year · Week | Actual | Optimal | Delta |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Kyle | 2022 · W14 | 6.1 | 112.6 | +106.5 |
| 02 | Jordan | 2024 · W14 | 99.0 | 183.8 | +84.8 |

Career Bench-Burn Leaderboard
Total points each manager has left on the bench across every week with roster data. Lower is better. The optimal lineup is built against the league’s actual slot rules — none of ESPN’s stored fantasy.
Best Optimal-Lineup Streaks
Consecutive weeks where the manager started the perfect lineup — zero points left on the bench. The longest such runs in league history.
