TPE at time of draft: 202
TPE at time of writing: 806, 46th in the class, 5th among OLs
Stats in S29: 61 Pancakes, 2 Sacks allowed
DSFL Draft Position: Pick 32, 5 spot fall

I seem to remember Ananda Adyan going inactive for a month soon after the draft, and has not updated for a month since now. With that being said, I can't give this full marks with barely over 800 TPE. I don't think I ever interacted with Tmosura while he was active, so I can't comment on him as a user. That being said, at least Adyan got a decent chunk of TPE before leaving.

I seem to remember most people had Goat Tank, one of the biggest memes of the entire of the entire class due to his twitter account, going much higher than this. Eldorian is a very well known user, and already had connections to Orange County I believe? One thing's for sure, he more than made up for the investment, being a very prolific Defensive Tackle until position swapping, leading the S25 TPE charts for a long time until recently, and even now still being in the top 5, and 1st at his position no matter which one you count him as. Most of this first round has been filled with clear hits, and Goat Tank is no different

There's only one thing that prevents me from calling Cmon Skiuuup the best value pick of the entire draft; the fact that the entire reason he fell was due to...let's call them character concerns. As is, getting a top 20 player in terms of TPE at the meme number is extremely impressive; the last guy to be drafted in there before you was drafted 23 picks ago. He also had one of the best seasons that WR had the entire season during S29. All in all, Aircrou aside, there's absolutely nothing preventing me from calling this the biggest steal of the draft.
