What this view shows
Every Super Bowl roster from the last 15 seasons (2011 to 2025) was analyzed for how its 20 core starters were acquired and what they cost. This view measures the current roster against that championship pattern. It is a lens on team building, not a grade on players or on the team.

What a slot is

The 20-slot core is the primary starter at every core position: QB, RB, WR1, WR2, TE, LT, LG, C, RG, RT on offense and EDGE1, EDGE2, DT1, DT2, LB1, LB2, CB1, CB2, S1, S2 on defense. The primary is the player with the most snaps in the last completed season at that position group for this team.

Acquisition badges

The channel by which the player joined the team, and the cost tier within that channel.

Draft R1 top-10 First-round pick, top 10 overall.
Draft R1 mid First-round pick, 11-20 overall.
Draft R1 late First-round pick, 21-32 overall.
Draft Day 2 Rounds 2 or 3.
Draft Day 3 Rounds 4 through 7.
UDFA Undrafted free agent, signed by this team out of college.
FA Premium Signed via free agency at 90th percentile pay or above for his position in his signing year.
FA Middle Signed via free agency in the middle band (34th to 89th percentile).
FA Low Signed via free agency at 33rd percentile pay or below, including veteran minimums.
Trade Acquired in trade. (Cost tier reflects outbound assets when known.)
Other Waiver claim, practice-squad promotion, or a classification the data does not cover.
Rollup: Ultra-Expensive and Low-Cost

Each slot rolls up into one of three cost buckets that match the Contender Shape scorecard:

Ultra R1 top-10 draft picks, FA Premium signings, and Trade Big returns.
Low Day 3 draft picks, UDFA, FA Low signings, and Trade Small returns.
MIDDLE (no badge) Everything in between: R1 mid/late, Day 2, FA Middle, Trade Mid.
Homegrown

A slot is Homegrown when the player was Drafted or signed as a UDFA by this same team. Traded and FA acquisitions are not Homegrown even if they later re-signed with the team.

Homegrown
Fit and slot Data Confidence

Fit is the existing Scheme Fit score plus its Data Confidence tier (High/Medium/Low). It measures how well a player matches this team's scheme and staff, not how good the player is. Data Confidence reflects how much scoreable data we have on the player, not talent -- rookies and players with limited NFL usage start Low and rise as data arrives.

Slot Data Confidence is HIGH only when the seated player is the true prior-season snap leader for that position group. Every LOW slot carries a reason in plain English (departed, no snap data, tied leaders, seated elsewhere, side inferred, etc.).

What the colors mean. Green, yellow, and red on the scorecard rows measure alignment with the championship pattern, not player quality. A yellow Homegrown row means the team drafts less than championship rosters averaged, not that any specific player is bad. A red pairing row means the two starters at that position do not match the one-premium-plus-one-bargain championship pattern, not that either starter is bad.
