Robot skips Kittle, Kane carries a seventy-two point hole at tight end

Thirteen drafts since 2012 and Kane had never picked earlier than third; the reward was the one back nobody had to argue about, 316.3 points and right where the market had him. The best thing left behind him was Christian McCaffrey at 293.0 points, which settles it.

Wilson went three spots earlier than the market had him at 192.4 points while George Pickens sat at 217.2 points until pick 38 and Breece Hall at 223.6 points until 33. Wilson is now the lead receiver here, 11th of sixteen among this league's WR1s, where the best is 291.0 points.

The best runner left on the board at 225.0 points, two spots after the market wanted him, and he turned into the second-best flex in the league. The one unambiguously good decision Kane made after round one.

The robot's only appearance before round 10, and it spent the pick on a rookie listed Questionable at 145.5 points with Harold Fannin Jr. (158.0 points, gone at 80) and George Kittle (155.0 points, gone at 83) both on the board. Every tight end complaint that follows starts here.

Ferguson is the man who has to start at tight end, 129.0 points and 15th of sixteen among this league's TE1s, where the best is 201.0 points. The pick landed a spot off market and is defensible on its own; the hole was dug thirty picks earlier.

A quarterback rebuilding a knee, listed Questionable on draft day, taken three spots ahead of the market at 303.7 points, with Brock Purdy at 310.8 points still sitting there until 106. Mahomes starts here 11th of sixteen among the league's QB1s, where the best is 370.0 points.

Goff at 293.1 points against Mahomes at 303.7 points is the hedge the round-seven pick demanded, bought one spot behind market. The last pick a human made all night, and it was the right one.

This is where the humans left the building: every remaining pick was autodrafted. Last year the robot made all fourteen for Kane, so six of fourteen counts as progress, and its opening act was the third-best defence in the league at 124.5 points.

An autodrafted third-string back listed Questionable at 83.9 points whose entire case rests on Omarion Hampton getting hurt, and Hampton is not on this roster. Terrance Ferguson at 105.0 points went eleven picks later to somebody awake.

The robot handed Kane the kicker the defending champion named his team after, Maciuba having won 2025 as Cairlos Santanos. Santos comes in 11th of sixteen among this league's K1s at 143.0 points, where the best is 171.5.

The draft closed on a gadget slot receiver at 74.1 points, the only player Kane owns that CBS declined to project at all. AJ Barner at 103.0 points and Chig Okonkwo at 100.5 points went undrafted by all sixteen teams, which is a hard sight next to a tight end room ranked 15th of sixteen.
