Pick 1.05 puts the elite tier directly in California’s hands.

California enters the Rollmerican Football League draft from the fifth slot in an eight-team room. The opening pick lands inside the elite player tier, but the unusual scoring system prevents the front office from simply following a mainstream board.

Passing touchdowns are worth 12 points, rushing and receiving touchdowns are worth 12, and yardage arrives in larger chunks than conventional formats. Touchdown access is not a tiebreaker here. It is the foundation of the price.

The first objective is value at 1.05. The second is remaining flexible when the board returns at 2.12 and 3.21.
