I have been analyzing and writing about fantasy football since June. I had written about my fantasy team last year, however I was not as into the analytical and strategy side as I currently am. The fantasy draft season is almost over and I have decided to compile links to my various articles on one page.
These numbers are based off of fantasy
points from last year. I obtained the stats I used to make my
calculations from fftoolbox.com .
- Top 5 QB's =386.66 QB's 5-10=288.24
- Point difference of 98.42
- Top 12=323.05 13-24=203.225
- Point Difference 119.82
- Top 5 RB's= 264.58 RB's 5-10=195.08
- Point difference of 69.5
- Top 12=221.88 13-24=163.1
- Point Difference of 58.78
- Top 5 WR=218.48 5-10=178.44
- Point Difference=40.04
- Top 12=192.15 Next 12=145.57
- Point Difference= 46.57
- Top 5 TE=165.92 5-10=116.26
- Point Difference=49.66
- Top 12=134.65 13-24=81.76
- Point Difference=52.89
These numbers could be replicated using
Yahoo's Points, ESPN's Points, really any point system unless it was
horribly balanced. These numbers are the foundation of how I draft.
The key to these numbers is the point differences. It is important to
have a solid all around team. Ideally you would have the best player
at every position. That is simply not possible. Point differences
give us plenty of essential information that can help with forming
strategies. These numbers are why I will personally not draft a WR in
the second round of a fantasy draft, the only exception for me is
Calvin Johnson. These numbers are why I believe it is key to have a
elite quarterback. These numbers are why I believe you need two
solid running backs, with the hopes of having one in the top 10. These
numbers are why I believe Rob Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham warrant
early round selections.
