Front Office Ledger

Every general manager, judged on the whole body of work — what they drafted, traded, signed, worked off the buyout market, waived, kept or let walk, and whether it all converted to winning.

Ranked by how many genuine stars each executive drafted — real careers, not late-round noise.

Gingeball front-office ledger — every general manager's body of work across the draft, trades, and free agency, 1990-2026. Franchise-eras before front-office records begin are left unattributed, never guessed. Generated 2026-07-08. FA channel injury-aware (injured-star signings un-dinged on talent-when-healthy). Adds a buyout-market channel (which execs land useful bought-out vets) and a waiver channel (who waived players who produced elsewhere); coverage through Feb 2019 (recent buyout market is a v1.2 pull). Adds an outcome channel: did each exec’s assembled roster value convert to playoff titles over their tenure (through 2015). Adds a sequence channel: downstream value a GM’s originating moves set off through multi-hop asset chains (decay 0.5/hop — the originator retains half its credit per subsequent independent decision).
