Probably even more of an issue than just the scoring (e.g. QB TDs), are the factors of scarcity and team needs. Basically, what positions are getting gobbled up in YOUR draft and what needs YOU still have left on your team as the draft unfolds are the driving forces of when you'll take certain positions.<br /><br />Positions lists are the way to go. Overall lists do help though, when coupled with ADP data, to give you an idea of how your draft may go in terms of when certain player tiers in different positions are taken off the board.<br /><br />Anyway, just a long-winded way of agreeing with the last comment.Dave - FantasyPros.comhttp://www.FantasyPros.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34425107.post-90434762864293615342010-08-16T17:34:49.634-04:002010-08-16T17:34:49.634-04:00Long time subscriber, first time poster here.
I&#...Long time subscriber, first time poster here.<br /><br />I've written a couple articles for Fantasy Guru (www.fantasyguru.com) talking about the problems with draft position and best player lists... and it might be a good idea to consider for your next compilation.<br /><br />Probably the most glaring flaw is that player rankings, without cosidering scoring systems, are incomplete. For instance, if your leauge gives 6 pts for a passing TD vs. 4 pts it's a serious bump to QB value. How could a site psosibly account for that when assembling a list? Is Aaron Rodgers REALLY less valuable than Frank Gore in that scoring system?<br /><br />I'll stop there so I don't sound like I'm pumping my own material. But it should be enough to make us pause and ask if there's a better way to rank players.H00KemH02NSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34425107.post-48732882753733897192010-08-16T09:23:53.135-04:002010-08-16T09:23:53.135-04:00in all of your charts and grafts... would it be di...in all of your charts and grafts... would it be difficult to find the most accurate people at predicting out comes minus the top 50? if you really DO win championships with your late round picks this would be interesting to see. i feel like I've seen something like this on here... but not from you? -potlickerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
