Following the 2011 draft order equation research and based off the Final 2016 Brothers Keeper fantasy football season final standings, regular season winning percentage, and regular season total points scored (see the box above), the upcoming 2016 draft order needs to be computed.
Note that the league no longer utilizes a consolation/loser bracket for calculation. Thus the four teams that did not make the playoffs keep their season ending rank for the calculation and draft order. The equation matched perfectly this rule for the 2017 draft order. The 3 factor draft order calculation is as follows; here's the link to the Google Doc version of the spreadsheet):
So here's the final (commissioner approved) draft order for the upcoming 2017 Brothers Keeper 11 season:
1. Legion (M Peltonen)
2. Yer X-MOM (P Smith)
3. Forever Tide (M Mohler)
4. Rmmm's Golden Eagle (D Pilcher)
5. Holy Smoke (R Johnson)
6. Sloppybutt (M R Smith)
7. Game of Pwns (R C Smith)
8. Yankinfowlsandfeline (J Smith)
9. Ghost (B Garner)
10. Points On the Bench (D Kessler)
Remember: In order to create league parity we want the worst team drafting first as it is the most advantageous draft position to draft from to better their team (see the research here). League parity creates more competition. We are regularly seeing new teams compete for playoff spots very late into the regular season. It's all about making it to the championship bracket!
Post-Keeper Pre-Draft Sheet

The following spreadsheet is available for use for the draft (and for download). The draft order and keeper values all need to be verified by you. The spreadsheet should be pretty firm however. If you see any errors please notify the League Commissioner or League Historian for an inquiry.
