Preseason Week 2 wrap-up

Hope you all found some time in your weekend to watch a little preseason action, but if not, you've come to the right place. I've got several recaps for you and a handful of drafting advice.

Speaking of drafts, many of you know that I run a big, 72-team, 6 conference FFLibrarian Monster League made up of FFLibrarian readers. Two of the conferences (conf 5 and 6) are conducting slow, e-mail drafts and the results of their drafts are unfolding here.

In case you missed it, I've been working on the annual average position rankings spreadsheet and I'm in clean-up mode for the document to make it hopefully even more helpful. When I've got the edits in, look for another post here with the excel version. For now, here's the google docs version

Hello FFL,
I am new to Fantasy Football and am starting my second year in a dynasty league (my husband needed a manager for one that did not want to play again...their team was bad).
There are a lot of weird rules I am not completely sure of yet, but for the most part we can keep the majority of our players.
After talking to my husband he said I have ok starting wide receivers, but no "depth". And, all by one of my running backs are horrible. The only good news appears to be my Quaterbacks since I have an Aaron Rodgers and Andrew Luck.
Anywho, sorry for the rambling message, but I would really like your opinion on your top 15 wide receivers and running backs that are new to the league or maybe other teams would not have.
Thank you so much for your help,
Tina

some of the links on this post point to the same articles ?
Tina, sounds like you're in need of some rookie rankings. Try Dynasty League Football's Top 50 Rookie Rankings: http://dynastyleaguefootball.com/rankings/top-50-dynasty-rookie-rankings/

Anon, thanks for the heads up on the repeat links. I do that every once in awhile when I'm not paying enough attention. They should be corrected now!

OK, thoughts please. I am trying to decide on my keeper - Jamaal Charles who would be my second round pick or Jimmy Graham who would be my seventh round pick (I still cannot believe I got him in the seventh round last year.)

And huge congratulations on Baby Number 2! I know I am a bit late on the news, but so happy for you.

I want to pick your brain too....
I have a team in a 12 team PPR keeper league. I can keep 3. I have Arian Foster, Ray Rice, Alfred Morris and Brandon Marshall. Who should I keep?
My daughters both go to Univ of Tenn and are very reliable if you ever need a baby sitter! Go Vols!
For making a successful team we should be known a lot of things. The next most important thing you can do to ensure success in fantasy sports is RESEARCH. fantasy football bye weeks

I had no idea the team will be so powerful with just so little changes.

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

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...
