Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
i make my own cheat sheet based on the results from the previous year. I pull the data from yahoo within my league so my scoring totals are accurate. Then i add in rookies, and i tweak the depth chart. then sort by team, add in bye weeks and a comment column. It's already done minus the depth of the players, which is fluid. comments i add based on the people i follow around the country via twitter. bleacher report had a great article a few days ago on the 30 'must follow' football personalities.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
If you had to pick a redskins RB as a starter, who would you take?
(based on what we know now)

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
Right now you'd have to go with Royster. TH still sitting out, Helu nursing an achilles injury... but I'd probably avoid taking any of the Skins backs.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
Since T. Davis, you should never draft a Shanahan back. They are picked up in free agency to fill in for bye weeks. Too inconsistent.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
I will heartily endorse this even though I hate telling anyone that. I had hoped it was just a small pub that no one used.
I tend to think their projections and player rankings are the best out there year in and year out. I use my own projections but I do it by position and then put the names in. I use FFI for the rankings. |

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
I love my WR's but hate my RB's lol.
WR: C. Johnson, W. Welker, Jordy Nelson (Reserves nothing to write home about: L. Robinson, Oakland's third string - whatever his name is lol). RB's: Marshawn Lynch, Stevan Ridley & Pierre Thomas (Reserve: S. Vereen) TE: Gates, QB: Ryan, with Fitzpatrick in reserve, DEF: Chicago, K: Hansen Wanted Bradshaw or Gore as my 2nd back but both stolen either the pick ahead of me (Bradshaw) or 2 picks ahead (Gore). Instead of Bradshaw I took Nelson (4th Round) but should have grabbed Gore, even if Nelson had been gone by my next pick. In the 5th, with Gore gone, I picked Gates. Would have felt better with Gore, Nelson/Bowe (who was still on the Board at my 5th pick so would have gotten either Bowe or Nelson as a 3rd WR). Gore/Bowe > Nelson/Gates. Those two rounds were my biggest screw-up and really puts me in a hole. Gates is nice, but he will put up middle of the pack numbers and my 2nd back probably won't even do that. Grrrrr. I think this is Ryan's break out year - two great wide outs, solid TE and an aging runner mean more reliance on his arm. Doubt he will put up Rodgers numbers, but betting he will be in the neighborhood.
