New paper from Phillip Maymin http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm? ... id=2428156
Similar to work released earlier this year but not immediately clear how much is new. I dont recall seeing a consensus win metric blend before.

Is it that every team would have same set of players still available for model pick as was case in real life?

First sentence of page 4 bears on this, I believe.

So the most undervalued pick would be picked by all teams above actual pick til the point where he is no longer undervalued. The perfectly modeled draft?
