Co-design methods attempt to close this gap, but each uses a model generator written for a single platform or lack the use of real-world data to suggest that designs are plausible. We present Draft, a parametric generation tool whose generalized engine compiles any parametric tree of serial chains into a simulation-ready MJCF model, without CAD. It allows engineers to explore design tradeoffs through easily adjustable models and evaluate how changes influence controller performance. Draft grounds the free parameters of each design using trends fitted to a survey of $114$ actuators and $49$ published robot descriptions, so that a generated robot is anchored to real-world hardware. We validate those trends wholistically by building twins of four off-the-shelf robots, whose masses agree to $1.10\times$ geometric mean fold error. Finally, we demonstrate how Draft exposes design tradeoffs by evaluating three quadrupeds through a two-stage reinforcement learning curriculum.
