A 12-team superflex mock draft highlights varying strategies for roster construction regarding the quarterback position. Participants tested three distinct build styles, ranging from early-round selections to waiting until the middle rounds to secure a starter. One approach prioritized immediate talent at the position by selecting two quarterbacks in the first two rounds. Another strategy emphasized building depth at running back and receiver before drafting the first quarterback in the seventh round. A third participant opted for a balanced roster, focusing on elite wide receivers early before adding quarterbacks in the third and sixth rounds. The league rules utilize six points for touchdowns and specific scoring adjustments for passing, rushing, and receiving yards. The roster requirements include one superflex spot to allow for flexibility in lineup construction throughout the 17-round draft.
- •Jack Capotorto drafted L. Jackson and T. Lawrence in the first two rounds.
- •Heath Cummings waited until the seventh round to select his first quarterback, C.J. Stroud.
- •Jamey Eisenberg balanced the roster by picking J. Chase and J. Jefferson before targeting Purdy in round three.
- •The 17-round draft features a starting lineup of one QB, two RB, three WR, one TE, one FLEX, and one SUPERFLEX.
