Value rankings

The 100 players and prospects with the most modeled surplus value.

Leaguewide board

Top 100 by surplus value

Model value, not a consensus list. Stars on market-rate deals rank low here by design: their salary absorbs most of their projected value. Values count 2027 on and discount future seasons 10% a year; pending free agents are left out.
