Big Brother winners your fantasy team would have cut

Nov 13, 2026 · 3 min read

Picture it: week 8, your roster is bleeding, and you're staring at a houseguest who's never won HOH and keeps landing on the block. Drop them? Under our scoring, five Big Brother winners were exactly that player.

We scored BB2 through BB28 with our league rules and ranked every winner on Game Score, the points from the weekly game (HOH, veto, nominations, block survival) before the jury, finale and AFP bonuses kick in. These are the five lowest.

	Winner	Season	Game Score	Game rank in their season	Final fantasy total
1	Ashley Hollis	BB27	1	7th of 17	38
2	Dr. Will Kirby	BB2	2	3rd of 12	32
3	Jordan Lloyd	BB11	5	6th of 13	40
4	Maggie Ausburn	BB6	6	5th of 14	34
5	Lisa Donahue	BB3	8	2nd of 12	51

Every one of them still finished #1 in their season on the full fantasy total. The weekly game said "cut". The endgame said "you just won your league".

Ashley Hollis, BB27: one point in 13 weeks

Ashley's weekly fantasy line reads like a stock that never moved: three trips to the block, a replacement nomination, two Block Buster losses, no HOH. Her one veto was spent saving herself. Net Game Score: 1. Then the endgame: jury (+5), Final HOH (+5), six jury votes (+12), the win (+15).

That's the "social stealth" game in one number. Under our scoring, it's the lowest Game Score of any winner from BB2 to BB28, and the biggest endgame share (97%).

Dr. Will, BB2: the original

BB2 had no veto, so the comp side of fantasy was thin for everyone, and Will's line is all nominations and survivals: four times on the block, four times safe, zero HOH wins in our grids. Game Score 2. He still ranked 3rd in his season on Game Score, because in BB2 the weekly game paid almost nobody (the top Game Score that season was 11).

Jordan Lloyd, BB11: survivor, not slayer

Jordan's fantasy story is the block. She was nominated four times, three of them as a replacement nominee, and survived every eviction vote she faced. In our scoring, each replacement nomination costs −3 and each survival pays +2, so her weekly line kept going backwards and climbing back. One HOH, one veto, Game Score 5, then a jury, Final HOH and win worth 35.

Maggie Ausburn, BB6: the steady hand

Four nominations, three survivals, one HOH and one veto: Game Score 6. Her housemate Janelle (BB6, 3rd) more than doubled that, with 13. Maggie won the season anyway, and on the full fantasy total she finished #1 in BB6.

Lisa Donahue, BB3: low score, high finish

Lisa is the outlier on this list: Game Score 8 was still the second-best in BB3. Comps paid little that season, and she did just enough (one HOH, one veto). Then BB3's 10-person jury voted 9–1 for her, which is +18 in jury votes alone.

What about Taylor Hale?

Earlier versions of this list had BB24 winner Taylor Hale in the bottom five. After we reconciled the season grids, her Game Score came out at 9: two HOH wins, five nominations, and five block survivals, two of them without a single vote against her. She's 6th lowest, just off the list. And she more than made up for it at the end: eight jury votes and America's Favorite on top of the win.

The draft lesson

The winners on this list share one thing: they kept surviving. None of them were comp machines, but every one of them reached the jury, and in our scoring that's where the money is. If your pick is a low-key player who keeps escaping the block, the flat line isn't a red flag. It might be the setup.
