My question: how different were the rankings of teams by firstPickAbility from your actual first pick lists?

The first pick ranking and our draft list are usually very close. We usually switch our pick list on pairwise qualitative comparisons, but no team jumps from 6th to first.
However, there's usually bigger distinctions among the teams in that pool than in the 2nd pick pool. That's where we've been happy with the initial list we get out of our scouting app. We do move teams up and down quite a bit on that list, but we find hidden gems, and we can confirm or deny some of our qualitative impressions with the data we have.
