Draft Day is Ever So Close

My first draft of the season is coming up this Sunday. Unfortunately I will be on an airplane during the draft and a friend is going to draft on my behalf. I trust this guy immensely but have furiously been creating an overall ranking and positional rankings for my buddy to refer to during the draft. I'm thinking that I will probably post those rankings sometime next week after I am back in town. So if you're interested, keep your eyes peeled for those rankings in about a week.

Until then I give you FFToolbox's updated rankings for both offense, team defenses, and individual defensive players. It's the whole kit and caboodle, my friends. The Huddle also just updated their draft kit yesterday and while some of their content isn't free, a good chunk of it is. The Huddle also has an interesting article that provides some draft strategy insight called Drafting from the Basement for those of us who end up without one of the top picks.

In other fantasy news, check out Fanball.com's Running the Wrong Way for the latest on Tennessee's RB melee and its fantasy implications. Or CBS Sportsline's Skinny's Much Changed for Titans' White. [photo: US Presswire]

Is your head spinning with rankings, names, and numbers? If you need a little bit of a breather from all this current fantasy talk, read Peter King's My All-Future Team where he lists some of his favorite players for his 2012 fantasy team. Then again, if you need a breather from fantasy football info, I think you're in the wrong place.

Sorry you can't be at the draft! Look forward to smacking you around this season. In a fantasy football playful way. Not a guy beating up a girl way. Have a safe trip!
Librarian...what is your email, I have lots of questions and you seem to do a good job with the research?
Christopher - my email is fflibrarian at gmail.com - I'll keep my eyes open for an e-mail from you...and hope I can be of help.

Labor Day FF links

Happy long weekend! Here's hoping most of you are free to enjoy the 3-day weekend and the relaxation and fun that comes with it. I spent my Sunday participating in 3 fantasy football drafts scattered throughout the day and night, but I think I've finally wrapped up my drafts for the year. So like many of you I'm now turning my attention to the Week 1 games! But before we get to some player rankings and prep for Week 1, I want to make sure that all you experts out there are aware of the upcoming deadline for the annual accuracy contest that I run with the Fantasy Sports Trade Association. I compare preseason positional rankings from experts to the final outcome of the fantasy season to see which site had the most accurate preseason rankings, and this year's deadline is fast approaching: September 9th by kickoff. Check out the info on the FSTA site for more details and be sure to e-mail me your submissions. Now, onto Week 1! First up, let's get to some of this

2010 Week 2 consensus start/sit

Greetings and happy weekend. I've got this week's consensus start/sit for you which is a tally of all the start/sit votes that players received in the various start/sit articles that I linked to earlier in the week. So while these aren't my personal recommendations, I do think knowing what the consensus is could be of help when making lineup decisions...so enjoy! Note: the players are listed in no particular order. QB Start: Michael Vick, Kyle Orton, Matt Ryan, Jason Campbell Sit: David Garrard, Alex Smith, Jay Cutler, Vince Young, Carson Palmer RB Start: LeSean McCoy, Darren McFadden, Ahmad Bradshaw, Brandon Jackson Sit: Tim Hightower, C.J. Spiller, Beanie Wells, Ronnie Brown WR Start: Santana Moss, Legedu Naanee, Malcolm Floyd, Mike Williams (TB), Dez Bryant Sit: Randy Moss, Michael Crabtree TE Start: Chris Cooley, Todd Heap, John Carlson, Jermichael Finley Sit: Jermaine Gresham, Owen Daniels, Tony Scheffler, Jeremy Shockey, Bo Scaife Kicker Start: La

Start/Sit Week 4 and a smattering of rankings

It's been awhile, my fantasy football friends. I have lofty intentions of getting several posts up here each week, but life is busy and I will do my best. So in the intervening 6 years since I've posted regularly on here, our family added another child (now there are 3!), moved back to Boulder for a sabbatical year and then returned to Knoxville, and we have basically been chugging along like many of the rest of you. My two boys (who turn 12 and 9 soon) are in a fantasy football league for the first time this year with their buddies, which ostensibly is the just the dads (and mom!) playing one another of course. But my oldest is taking it super seriously and what kind of Fantasy Football Librarian would I be if I didn't step up my game for him? So I'm back - and am interested in the fantasy landscape - lots of the same awesome sites out there, but many new ones as well. I'll try to incorporate a mix. Please be sure to let me know if my 2006 ways aren't working i
