The table below shows how much teams improved their average current player value from the end of the allocation draft (left column) through Week 1 of the regular season (middle column). Oklahoma head coach Hypnorhino took over the team during the late free agency period and made some moves that improved the Outlaws tremendously, raising the average current value of his players nearly 18 points.
During the preseason, teams can improve in several ways: signing key free agents, releasing young players who have "busted" and lousy players who came in at the end of the allocation draft, and the general improvement younger players will show during training camp and exhibition play
The New Jersey Generals were not far behind, as raidergreg69's youthful squad was designed to get better over time. Teams who drafted more veterans, like the Boston Breakers, improved less, as you might expect.
