Front Office Build Profile

A factual owner/coach-era snapshot from recorded draft capital, auction-market, contract-origin, and transaction records. It is not a reconstructed cap ledger.

Draft-First BuilderDraft Capital AccumulatorHigh-Activity OperatorQB Investor

Draft-First Builder. The recorded draft pattern is the clearest build path: surplus selections, premium first-round capital, or repeated extra-pick seasons outweigh normal auction activity.

Draft capital24 picks+7 versus 17 normal allotment · #1 in SRL.
First-round capital14 picks+7 versus 7 normal first-round slots.
Draft Capital Pattern5 extra-pick season(s)+7 selection surplus · +7 first-round surplus.

Draft-capital measures show completed selections versus the normal scheduled allotment. Historic original-pick ownership is incomplete, so this profile does not claim a total for “picks acquired by trade.”
