As the trade deadline approaches, a necessary exercise that
all GMs must engage in involves the consideration of which players will be kept
for next season and which are effectively spare parts. And as some teams look
to trim some fat which can be used as effective energy storage for other less
fortunate squads, it seemed worthwhile to take a look at production by position
and determine what types of assets are truly available at different stages of
the draft.
Incidental to this objective, I’ve used this opportunity to also (a) compare each team’s ownership (potential keeper value) by position, and (b) demonstrate which GMs drafted particularly effectively.

There’s no real magic to this analysis, and I’m really going
to leave it to you guys to draw whatever conclusions you wish heading into our
final week before trade deadline. I can’t always lead you down the garden path
to the "solution" to your problems…
