Different formats will impact whether a player is startable or not, especially an unconventional player such as Tim Tebow or Vince Young in year's past. In this particular format, he is not and hence the low ranking.

I don't watch that much college football so most of my rookie "scouting" comes from reading sportline.com's draft bios, nfl.com bio's, and whatever else I can find that seems insightful on the web. I find it very difficult to rank WRs outside the top 50 to 55. There are just so many relatively...

Made a few changes to the QB rankings. At some point, I'd like to update the WR rankings as well as I'm struggling with where to rank Cruz, Nelson, and Brown. Mike Williams is probably a bit overrated as well. He probably should be ranked towards the bottom of that tier.

Yeah, that must be where the difference is. So your 18.7 ppg would be more accurate then. Even taking out Henne and Skelton, that still only jumps him to either 16th or 17th among QBs in ppg. That's not starter level in a 12 team dynasty league. When you account for the fact that he's...

I feel that Manning and Big Ben have largely shown what they're capable of doing in the NFL. Both are guys you can start at QB in fantasy but it's also going to give you a slight disadvantage at the position most weeks.Bradford was worthless in fantasy this year but I think it's way to early to...

The primarily reason I don't have Young ranked higher is because I don't think he has fantasy WR1 upside whereas I think guys like Baldwin, Collie, or Torrey Smith might (or at least have flashed more upside then Young). Of course, it could be my (mis)perception that he is very similar to DeSean...

This a a great question IMO. One of the things I found very difficult was where to rank secondary WRs, specifically: Victor Cruz, Jordy Nelson, and Antonio Brown.I feel like I could be underrating all three quite a bit. Jordy Nelson - looking at it statistics (which are very impressive), two...

I double checked this and in my league he finished as the #19 among QB in total fantasy points and #21 among QB in fantasy ppg.(or #19 in ppg if you take out Henne (who you probably should) and Skelton)

Murray struggled with injuries in college, this year in the preseason, and then suffered a season ending injury. He appears to be a top 10 talent but I downgrade both of them because you can't really count on them. McFadden is ranked slightly higher to a better body of work.

I didn't put a ton of effort into the TEs beyond the top 15 or 20. In my opinion, it's a bit of crapshoot with a lot of decent prospects out there. I wouldn't really consider the guys I ranked to be much better fantasy prospects then him.

Aside from touchdowns, he had a pretty good rookie for a receiver: 61 catches, 709 receiving yards, and 2 TDs. He was viewed as a high risk/high reward player going into the draft and I don't really see any reason to move him from his preseason ranking. I'm pretty quick in moving a receiver...

He had two great games and then got hurt. He certainly has the talent to be a beast but I also feel there are major concerns regarding his work ethic. I don't feel like there is much distance between him, Michael Crabtree, Mike Williams, and Jordy Nelson. Each has their own warts and reasons...

Yeah this is one of things I don't feel particularly secure about in my rankings. Truth be told, he and Josh Freeman probably deserve to be ranked a tier lower. I'd still take either one over a guy like Eli because of age and Eli's total body of work.

Under my league settings he has been #11 in 2011, #17 in 2010 (7th in ppg), #9 in 2009, #18 in 2008, and #4 in 2007. He's a serviceable option but I feel the sample size is large enough to know that he probably isn't going to win you fantasy games like some of the guys above him can.
