2025 Season
SEASON HIGHLIGHTS
- Introduced Benchmark One, an 18-team guillotine league with IDP. Funded by the $5 trophy fee since our trophy manufacturer was affected by tariffs, the cash prize of $120 was winner-take-all.
- New managers. 1 new manager & 1 returned from hiatus after 13 years.
- Buy-ins, payouts, and penalties increased. This is the first season that every Comp manager preferred a $100 buy-in.
- New draft formats. Comp managers were able to select snake draft positions before the draft, and One managers drafted autodrafted teams.
- Major changes. 5 point passing TDs. Week 14 Can't Cut List.
- Minor changes. DST return yards. "Loan trades" banned.

🫡 Comeback Manager of the Year
R.J.
The defending champ started the season at 11th, and fell as low as 12th in week 4, but finished the season in 4th place after going on a 9-win streak.
Prime Highlights
- Eugene won his first Prime championship, defeating Bryan 257.09–222.89 in week 17. Eugene was the 3rd highest scoring team in the regular season, with the 8th hardest schedule. A manager who plays both leagues, he won Comp's 2024 season and fielded a strong roster for most of One's inaugural season.
- Jeff's hard schedule. His 3067.01 points against were the most in the available 2021–2025 records: 61.88 more than last season's high and 116.51 more than the next hardest schedule. He scored the 8th most points but finished last.
- Bryan's regular-season dominance. Never lower than 3rd in the standings all season, Bryan was in 1st from weeks 3 to 14—the longest first-place run in the available 2021–2025 records.
- Gabe missed the playoffs after five straight appearances. The 2020 and 2022 Benchmark champion had qualified every season from 2020–2024, including co-managed teams with Mary in 2023 and 2024.
- 18 trades for the entire season. 2 more than last season. Still fewer than the 30 completed Prime trades in 2022.
- Week 11 was a photo finish. Chris beat Ian by 1.60, Eugene beat Gabe by 1.67, and Reinier beat Anthony by 4.45. Three of the season's four closest regular-season matchups happened in the same week.
- Week 7 carnage. The two biggest Prime matchup margins of 2025 happened together: Eugene beat David by 108.98 and R.J. beat Reinier by 101.15. David's 115.66 was also the regular-season low.
- 11% of starting FAAB remained in the tracker's closing balance. In 2024, 11.75%. In 2023, 5.375%. These percentages use the 200-credit starting budget per manager. The 268 recorded Vickrey settlements through December 25 returned 2832 of 4966 winning-bid credits (57.03%), leaving 2134 actually paid.

COMP
🏅 Winner
Cory
Runner-up: Reinier
🐣 Baluser
Matt L.
Runner-up: Hayden
🫡 Comeback Manager of the Year
James
Started the season in 12th place and spent a month near the bottom before making a run as high as 3rd place by week 8. He fell outside the playoff places in week 13 and finished 8th, avoiding the bottom-two final-placement penalties despite four weekly low-score penalties.
Honorable mention to Cory, who started the season in 10th place and won it all. But he was only in 10th for a single week.
Comp Highlights
- Cory's stealth championship. An honorable-mention “comeback” case in his own right: he started the season in 10th place (for just one week) and still won it all. Cory never had the highest weekly score during the regular season, while appearing in the week's closest matchup 5 times and winning 4. His 287.03 in week 15 was the highest scheduled-game score of the full season.
- Reinier’s stat-sheet MVP season. Reinier basically owned the superlatives page: most points (3111.19), most weekly payouts (4 top-score weeks), largest matchup margin of victory (+98.24 on Matt L. in Week 5), most median wins (10), best waiver manager (33 waiver transactions), most active (100 transactions in the regular-season tracker snapshot), and Dealmaker (6 trades).
- Mary’s second-half inferno. The hottest streak of the year: a 12-win run from Weeks 9–14, plus the league lead in matchup wins (11). She also nailed the season’s ultimate squeaker: smallest matchup margin of victory (+0.39 over Mark in Week 2)—and still found time for a 95.63-point demolition of Matt L. (Week 10), one of the biggest blowouts of the season.
- Hayden’s median madness. Hayden somehow captured both ends of the median spectrum: the largest sixth–seventh scoring gap (43.15 in week 5, a Comp record across 2022–2025) and the smallest gap (a 0.01 edge over Matt L. in week 4). Also: zero trades, joining the season-long trade freeze.
- Matt L.’s monopoly of negative superlatives. The Baluser had a brutal full-house of lows: fewest points (2493.79), fewest matchup wins (3), fewest median wins (3), and least active (1 transaction). He faced the 4th-hardest schedule, with 2908.30 points against.
- Only 8 trades for the entire season. Same number as 2024. In 2023 there were 9 trades. In 2022 there were 13 trades. 7 managers completed zero trades (Gabe, Hayden, James, Kevin, Kyle, Mark, Mary), while Reinier and Eugene did basically all the dealing (Reinier 6; Eugene 4).
- Chris’s split verdict. Chris finished with nine median wins but just five head-to-head wins. His scores beat 93 of 154 possible opponent scores, yet he faced Comp's toughest actual schedule at 2991.81 points against. He still reached the playoffs as the sixth seed.
- 29.5% of starting FAAB remained in the tracker's closing balance. In 2024, 17.04%. In 2023, 11.83%. These percentages use the 200-credit starting budget per manager. The 209 recorded Vickrey settlements through December 25 returned 3194 of 4885 winning-bid credits (65.38%), leaving 1691 actually paid.

ONE
🥇 Winner
Kyle
The last manager standing. Beat Hayden 240.72–216.74 in Week 17, with 92 points from his six defensive starters.
🪓 The Big Chop
Reinier, Mary, Cory & Raymond
Eliminated after Week 4 with cumulative totals of 578.77, 603.78, 639.21, and 645.11, respectively. Raymond’s 203.80 was Week 4’s fifth-best score, but the four-week total decided the cut. Bryan was the last manager spared, 10.53 points above the cut line.
🫡 Comeback Manager of the Year
James
Opened 18th of 18 with 135.04 in Week 1, and was still last in cumulative points among survivors after Weeks 7 and 8. Rebounded with the season’s highest score—293.40 in Week 10—and lasted until Week 14, finishing fifth overall. His final chop margin was just 2.80 points behind David.
One Highlights
- 18 managers. One survivor. One’s inaugural season combined six offensive starters with six individual defensive players. Four managers were eliminated after Week 4, followed by one elimination each week through the Week 17 final. This was a start/sit league; best ball came later.
- Defense decided the championship. Hayden’s offense outscored Kyle’s 160.74–148.72, but Kyle’s IDPs won their side 92–56. That 36-point defensive advantage delivered Kyle the title, 240.72–216.74.
- Kyle’s escape act. He opened Week 1 ranked 14th of 18, then posted the lowest surviving score in Weeks 13, 15, and 16. His Week 16 escape over Kevin came by just 4.00 points. A week later, he won the final 240.72–216.74.
- Beheaded while leading. Eugene led the surviving field four straight weeks, Weeks 2–5, and finished with the best weekly average: 209.02 over eight weeks. He entered Week 8 with the most cumulative points among 11 survivors, then was chopped with 144.87. Anthony entered Week 12 leading the remaining seven, then went out with 176.37. A season-long lead offered no protection from one bad week.
- The Bijan Robinson curse. Five rosters, five eliminations. Matt L. drafted him and was chopped in Week 7; R.J. paid $967 in FAAB to claim him before going out in Week 9. Gabe followed for $544 and a Week 10 chop, then Kevin for $202 and a Week 16 chop. Hayden paid $20 on Christmas Day, then lost the final. That was $1,733 in FAAB payments without a championship.
- IDP mattered—a lot. Defensive lineup slots supplied 43.6% of all scoring. Mary relied on them most (57.3%); Anthony least (37.9%). Myles Garrett’s 60 for Chris in Week 8 was the second-highest individual starter score in 2025 One, offense included. Kyle’s most productive starter over the season was linebacker Jordyn Brooks, with 335.08 points.
- Vickrey returned 11,153 FAAB credits. The waiver ledger’s 207 recorded settlements turned $20,832 in winning bids into $9,679 in payments, leaving 46.2% of the league’s original $18,000 FAAB unspent. James’s $606 bid on C.J. Stroud and Reinier’s $597 bid on Justin Fields both settled for $0. Matt L., Mark, Cory, and Raymond spent no FAAB. Separately, Sleeper recorded 521 completed voluntary transactions: 295 free-agent moves and 226 waiver claims. Trading was disabled.
- Kyle picked the Big Chop’s pocket. After Cory’s elimination, Kyle claimed De’Von Achane, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Aidan Hutchinson for actual Vickrey payments of $300, $230, and $143 in FAAB. All became top-five contributors to his season’s starting-lineup points. Across the season, Kyle made 25 first acquisitions within seven days of a player’s prior roster being chopped—the most in One. By the final, his starting offense included Christian McCaffrey, Ja’Marr Chase, Saquon Barkley, and Achane.
