Six "general managers" (from AvengersAsssemble.net) took part in the "Team Draft," as we went in serpentine order (1-6, then 6-1, then 1-6 and so on), each choosing any Marvel character to put on our six separate AVENGERS teams.
The general managers were Van Allen Plexico, Mark Beaulieu, Rob Clough, Joe Crowe, Scott Harris-King, and Luke Smith.

Here are the six teams we assembled during the Draft.
I drew names to determine the draft order, with the results being the order they're listed in below. (Luke drafted first, then Mark, down to me at 6, then I drafted a second time (7th) and it worked its way back up to Luke for pick 12.)
Note: One theme that emerged was to draft a villain, whom we then declared had "reformed" and become a hero, in the tradition of Hawkeye and Black Widow and Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, etc.
