Contest updates and evening links

Lots of winners to announce today. Last week I ran three different FFLibrarian weekly contests with 365FantasySports.com so I've got three winners:
1. Freeroll contest where you pick two from each offensive skill position: ziggy64
2. Late games challenge where you only pick from players in the late Sunday and Monday night games: Fantazzle
3. Points cap challenge where you pick your players within a points budget : Zrayed

Nicely done, all. Try your hand at the weekly contests if you haven't already - this week I'm just doing two - the pick two freeroll and the points cap. Click here and use the 6book password to participate.


In the 96-team monster FFLibrarian league the top 5 point scorers across all 6 conferences were:
  1. Steel Vipers - 187.75 points
  2. HitNRun - 165.05 points
  3. Blue Boy Bed & Breakfast - 140.65 points
  4. denverdelinquents - 137.15 points
  5. 3rd String Wannabe's - 135.50 points
Finally, a few links to wrap things up:

Potlicker - I think I would go with either Breaston or T.O. Perhaps I'm being to optimistic about T.O. (and I do definitely have him benched in one of my leagues) so maybe Breaston is your best bet despite having so many other Cardinals. I think Caldwell is a little too inconsistent for me so go Breaston and hope for a scorefest in the air!

Anon - I'd go Hasselbeck but neither one is a bad start. HBeck just has lots more potential.

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,...
