Week 16 Consensus Start/Sit List

We survived our first flight with our little dude flying from my family down to my husband's family - it helped that the flight was only about 1.5 hours long and bless the kind people in front of us who told us that we all did very well. Clearly they blocked out the many cries coming from our tiny man. But now we're waiting for the rest of the family to arrive so I've got some time to get your consensus start/sit list up for you. For those celebrating Christmas today, hope it has been a merry one!

QB
Start: David Garrard, Tim Tebow (even as a Denver fan it pains me to type that a bit...not sure I'd trust Tebow this week)
Sit: Eli Manning, Mark Sanchez, Ben Roethlisberger

RB
Start: LeGarrette Blount, BJGE, Ryan Torain, Ronnie Brown, Marshawn Lynch
Sit: LT, Brandon Jacobs, Peyton Hillis

WR
Start: Vincent Jackson, Kenny Britt, Mike Williams
Sit: Chad Ochocinco, Johnny Knox, Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes

TE
Start: Kevin Boss, Owen Daniels, Rob Gronkowski
Sit: not a ton of consensus but since I feel like I ought to give you something during Championship Week! So there's no love out there for Celek, Keller, Fasano, Pettigrew, Zach Miller, or Watson.

DST
Start: Cowboys, Eagles, Ravens, Chargers
Sit: Falcons

K
Start: David Buehler, Josh Brown
Sit: Nick Folk

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...

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...

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,...
