Have been brushing up on some great Adam Harstad articles on dynasty. Came across this one http://subscribers.footballguys.com/apps/article.php?article=HarstadDiT3 about consistency. I think that he understates his case. If it is true that the majority of fantasy games are not close, an average performance does not help much. As a thought experiment, let's assume the typical margin of a game is 20 points. A consistent player with the same points per game (say 15) that scores 15 every week like clockwork, will rarely make a difference in the outcome. But a player that scores 30 half the time and 0 half the time (to use an extreme example) will rarely cost you the game when he has an off day, but will win it for you when he has a good day. Maybe "difference making potential" is far better than consistency (aka consistent mediocrity).
