Average Magazine Rank
|
|
Posted 8/2 by Clayton Gray, Exclusive to Footballguys.com
|
Below, you will find the average rankings from seven popular fantasy football
magazines (designated in the tables as "a" through "g". We
offer these compiled magazine rankings as a guide, but obviously not to tell you
what player to draft. Instead, use these rankings as a tool to help you spy on
the magazine drafters in your league. Also, note that we do not tell you where
a player is ranked in a specific magazine as we feel it to be unethical to provide
paid content from other services.
If there is a player/team that you consider a sleeper, these rankings can help
you judge his proper draft position. If a player/team is highly rated by the
magazines, the average magazine drafter will likely take them early. Conversely,
if a player/team is rated low by the magazines, the average magazine drafter
will likely not take them early.
You will also see the 'Hi' rank and 'Lo' rank. If the Hi and Lo are close,
then you can expect that ranking to be fairly predictable. However, if there
is a big difference between these values, it probably will be hard to determine
where this player will actually be taken in your draft. If you really want them,
you may have to take them fairly early.
