I plan on subscribing to Footballguys.Going to go way out on a limb here and guess that a majority of the people reading this are going to have footballguys as one of their pay subscriptions (those who have any at all).
It’s the only one I still subscribe to. Plenty of free stuff out there, but Joe deserves some support for keeping this place running imo.
Thanks for all the informations!profootballfocus.com, they do a really good job of spotting waiver pickups 2-3 weeks before they become fantasy stars. very good site. their DFS stuff helps the fantasy owners set lineups. if you can't choose between two guys, check their DFS listings and write ups..if they're fading player x and pushing all-in on the player y, I'm starting player y.. you can do this with a number of DFS sites, I just feel like they have the best stats and the best data of anyone out there.
Tony Holm's Fantasysharks.com been around forever. always has a great site information
Thehuddle.com - David M Dorey is a god .this is one of the very best, reaasonably priced outfits there is..
fantasypros.com
fantasyindex.com has a lot of good info, cheap prices, I like the training camp/preseason weekly write-ups and in-season analysis is very good. I've been using them since 1992 or so.
footballguys draft dominator is a great tool lets you focus on the draft while keeping tabs on whats happening, who has been drafted, who you *should* grab next,etc. best thing is it keeps the draft record of every pick so you know who pick who and in what round ( finds draft tendencies to exploit)
DD is solid. Waldman swings for the fences and strikes out, a LOT. but others on the staff are really good.
I like to subscribe to a number of sites and kind of average out the ideas, some like player X, some dislike him, some have a wait-n-approach on same player. I like to hear all sides and go from there. kind of what fantasypros.com does.
youtube.com has a lot of good FREE information too. Fantasy headliners is a channel I've been watching lately , they're pretty damn good from what I can tell. have a look at their recent lists of RBs to own, RBs that you do not want to draft.very informative stuff!
fantasyfootballers are OK, they seem to spend a lot of time talking about fringe players like rex burkhead, I don't get it.but their shows are funny and informative..has a kind of schticky greenberg/golic thing going on with the studio, sort of played out/tired look since everyone has 45 bobble head miniatures in front of a giant microphone ala greeny.but they're decent I guess..
I'm looking to go a similar direction.My subscriptions

thanks for the tip on Rotopass...didn't know about that and I pay at least that much for a couple sites already. Since I already paid for this seasons sites it's something I will take not of next year.Rotopass is probably the best bang for your buck depending on you price range. $75 for Footballguys, Rotowire, Rotoviz, Rosterwatch, ESPN+, and Football Outsiders. I've had it for a few years and I'm pretty satisfied.
Don’t like the Dynasty Nerds at all. I do subscribe to DLF, they are the only site I will give $$$ to. I only play dynasty leagues and for the $$$, they are head and shoulders above any site that focuses on dynasty football.anyone subscribe to dynasty nerds?
This is my 2nd year subscribing to DLF. I love that they have content (and a forum) specifically for salary cap/contract leagues. Plus they have devy rankings 2/3 years out.Don’t like the Dynasty Nerds at all. I do subscribe to DLF, they are the only site I will give $$$ to.

I did this one year and found that I didn't use most of the sites except Footballguys. I also had issues accessing some of the sites but that may have been user error.Rotopass is probably the best bang for your buck depending on you price range. $75 for Footballguys, Rotowire, Rotoviz, Rosterwatch, ESPN+, and Football Outsiders.

Second for me, but my subscription is free this yearThis will be the first year since 2004 that I won't be a paying customer of FBG's.
After further review, I am going to just renew my FBG subscription. I was unimpressed with I saw from a few of the other pay sites I looked at and don't think they can come close to delivering the value I've been receiving here. The grass isn't always greener.Second for me, but my subscription is free this year
At the end of the day, however, if you're on a budget FBG has the draft kings $10 deal and I believe DLF has the same deal (or PFF I cant remember who I saw)
Anyone ever use Rotoviz?
FBG is good value in general. I have my gripes with some of the content. i would prefer an "a-la carte" option and would probably only choose like 4 thingsAfter further review, I am going to just renew my FBG subscription.

I was always a fan of Hansen. He's a good analyst.To me I follow the info of certain individuals and seem to get more from podcasts and twitter these days. I also used to use Fantasy Guru but more for John Hansen and Graham Barfield who have both moved on. Between using google, youtube, twitter you can track down what you need without paying
This!If you need raw advanced stats PFF ELITE is the answer, a little expensive though.
Yes...very very informative. They were the originators of the Zero RB theory.Second for me, but my subscription is free this year

This is what I am thinking. I have never gone this late into a year without being a member of a site. I'm having trouble justifying paying for the information. It's kind of like the transition to free porn on the internet back in the day. I don't even want to know the ranks anymore. I just want to gather the info and put my own ranks together. I feel there is too much group think when it comes to rankings.To me I follow the info of certain individuals and seem to get more from podcasts and twitter these days.
