My Keeper League

One of my fantasy leagues is a keeper league and I need to decide in the next 36 hours which players I should keep and which I should ditch for our 4 round draft next week. I can cut up to 4 players or none at all. Our league requires that I keep my 4 IDPs to keep the FA pool rich with offensive talent...so I need to keep my IDPs listed at the end. Here's my team:

QB Marc Bulger
QB Jay Cutler
RB Rudi Johnson
RB Willis McGahee
RB Maurice Jones-Drew
WR Javon Walker
WR Donald Driver
WR Marques Colston
WR Terry Glenn
WR Bernard Berrian
WR Matt Jones
TE Tony Gonzalez
TE Tony Scheffler
K Robbie Gould
DL Julius Peppers (Car)
DB Antonie Winfield (Min)
DL Bart Scott (Bal)
DL Cato June (TB)

It's a 10-team, 6 points for Pa or Ru TD, 0.1 points/reception, 0.2 points/completion, 1 point per 15 yards rushing, 1 point per 12 yards receiving, and 1 point per 37 yards passing. Our starting lineup is 1 QB, 3 WRs, 2 RBs, 1 TE, 1 K, 2 Ds, 2 DLs - and 6 bench spots.

I'm thinking of dropping Matt Jones to pick up a rookie RB and dropping Tony Scheffler to try and get someone like Greg Olsen, Anthony Gonzalez or Laurent Robinson. Thoughts?

A hiatus

Update:  It is with a very heavy heart that I tell you all that yesterday, August 30th, I delivered our stillborn daughter, Caroline Mary. This has been an almost surreal and definitely heartbreaking experience and I appreciate the support in each and every one of your notes. Caroline will be honored and loved always. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your thoughts and prayers - they mean the world to our family. I have been a very poor blogger this month and feel I owe you all an explanation, particularly as this is crunch time for draft prep. I hope this is not too personal of a look into my life since I know most of you are just here for the football. I am nearly 18 weeks pregnant and we have learned that our baby (a little girl!) has triploidy, a chromosomal abnormality that means she has three copies of every chromosome instead of the normal two. The doctors have explained that it's a completely random occurrence and fairly rare that she has made it this far along, but tha...

2014 Average Position Rankings spreadsheet

Friends, I've got a first draft of the 2014 Average Position Rankings spreadsheet up here as a google doc. If you're new to this annual spreadsheet or need a refresher, here's the scoop. I take the top 200 or so overall rankings that are freely offered by a handful of sites and I average out their rankings for each player. I also take the standard deviation to see how a player's rankings differ among experts, and add that in as another component to give you a sense of how much consensus there is on a player. I drew from the following sites this year: FFToolbox, CBSSports.com (both Jamey and Dave), ESPN, FFCalc's ADP, The Fake Football, The Football Girl, NFL.com, DavidGonos.com, SI, Yahoo, FantasyPros.com, and RealTime Fantasy Sports. All offered roughly a top 200 overall ranking and you can see each site's ranking (gathered 8/20/14) in the second tab on the spreadsheet. You'll see that I really haven't fleshed it out a ton yet - I still have to ge...

Guest post: WRs with a stellar SOS

Greetings, FFers and welcome to the start of a long weekend. To celebrate I have two posts for you today. Later in the day I'll have some links to get you through the weekend but first up, I thought I'd post a little something new to FFLibrarian. This summer I'll be rolling out a series of articles from Cris who has his own site that I've linked to several times since last fall - it's definitely a bit of a departure from my usual linking here on FFLibrarian so I'd love your feedback. Feel free to leave comments for either Cris or me in the comments section or via e-mail . Below you'll see an excerpt from his recommendations for wide receivers that you might want to consider based on a strength of schedule (SOS) that is his combination of fantasy points against, average draft position, and yards per attempt. Note the special emphasis here on the fantasy playoffs, Weeks 14-16. If you'd like to read the rest of Cris' rankings for team wide receivers,...
