Football and Fantasy Links (1 Viewer)

Everyone,

As part of the redesign, we have a very good way to show a ton of links against a lot of different categories. Our goal is to have the best set of links for football/fantasy football anywhere on the internet.

Here are the categories we currently are tagging sites / pages to:

Free Sites

Pay Sites

Football Links

General Football Sites

News and Rumors

NFL Draft Information

Average Draft Info

Mock Drafts

Draft Kits

Blogs

College Info

Rankings and Projections

NFL Official Sites

Forums

Tickets & Stadiums

League Management

High Stakes Leagues

Contests

Showcase Leagues

Scores, Standings and Transactions

Stats and Player Pages

Fantasy Trophies, Logos, Apparel

Podcasts and Radio Shows

Fan Sites

Individual Teams (32 different categories)

Miscellaneous

What I need to know though are what links do you guys routinely use (The more obscure the better)? I am also interested in any additional categories that you think we need.

I know FBG has a great news blog. But the only other site I frequent as much as FBG is the Hotwire

It gives you basically every tidbit of info as soon as it happens. I toggle back and forth between the wire and here all day long at work.

In the spirit of news blogs, they have a pretty nice page at http://www.fantasymojo.com . The news page streams in 9 feeds from various sites in a nice dashboard / control panel setup.
 
any fantasy football site worth their salt, should have a link to a site that provides stats, such as stats.com ( they have a free page with information SO good its probably the best in the business). pro-football-reference.com is oustanding. since pro-football-refenrece.com is free, why not see if you can build a program on your site that render information gained from their databases, and all you do is provide free advertising for them on FBG's. this program should allow you to do player comparisons, extract X amount of years worth of data, and so on..

Stats.com's site, show ridiculous granularity. For instance, you can drill down to a RB's success rushing to the left, middle,right, on 1st down thru 4th down, or by month, home or away, VS. NFC/AFC, within division,outside division, on grass, on field turf ( or astroturf), 1st half of season or second half, fisrt half of games, or second half, 1st quarter thru 4th quarter, etc..

perhaps you can speak with either of these stats services about using their information? even if you put in in the members area on FBG's, as an added perk for buying a membership, that would be great.

must include profootballtalk.com.

In fact, you guys should become partners. The two sites mix well in my daily diet.

 
I would like to see an entire section devoted to the blogs from local beat writers for each team, if possible. Example would be here in Detroit, we have three beat writers, the two from the local papers, the Detroit News, and Detroit Free Press, and Tom Kowalksi, who blogs for mlive.com. I find those, especially the latter, to be extremely helpful. To have them all in one place under each teams name would be great.

If it is there and I missed it, then disregard.

on your League Hosts list I dont see a link to EFSports.

one of the better sites around for team specific discussions(GB and NFC North) is the PackerChatters site....

Tex

 
Best Texans site I know of:

http://www.houstonprofootball.com/

Direct link to their salary cap page which is excellent:

http://www.houstonprofootball.com/cap.html

Other team salary cap pages I've bookmarked over the years:

http://www.patscap.com/

http://www.geocities.com/eaglescap/

http://weblog.signonsandiego.com/sports/ch..._tracker_1.html

NFLPA salary database, which you can get to if you know the URL but they don't have a link on the front page anymore:

http://www.nflpa.org/Resources/ActivePlayerSearch.aspx

Good Salary cap FAQ:

http://www.askthecommish.com/salarycap/faq.asp

NFL draft history:

http://www.drafthistory.com/

NFL draft pick value chart (though I would just add your own copy to FBG as draft coverage content if you haven't already)

http://www.nfldraftblitz.com/pick_value_chart.htm

 
THIS LINK is a must on gameday. It doesn't look like much now, but on Sunday morning they have the latest forecast laid out for you for every outdoor stadium all on that one page, without having to click on a link for every city.
 
Here's one someone listed last year, it lists the network TV games during the season for those without Direct Ticket:

The Jets Stream -- Daily News writer Rich Cimini - have only been reasding since early April, but seems to have some good insight.

Fantasy Football Journal Small staff, but lots of info, podcasts, rankings and editorial type columns.

The Boys Blog Someone here turned me onto this one a while ago - good Cowboys info.

NFL Rants and Raves - general NFL podcast and occasional blog - they also have a Fantasy show but it's way to early to tell if it's going to bring anything new to the table. But I like the regular podcast - it's entertaining.

Aside from the obvious Big Guns (FBG, KFFL, ect) the above is where I go throughout the week for both research and entertainment value.

ps -- they are all free....

this post should be stuck at the top of page until you get them all in place.
:thumbup:I'd like to easily be able to come back here to write down new names - until you guys finished posting them all in the links section, of course.

:thumbup: This is without question the BEST source for NFL information that there is. Frank Cooney covers it all and only gets first hand information. You can find some of their stuff free around the net but direct from them their is a small monthly/yearly fee. This is one of those thing that I could not live without. I stumbled on this many years ago and actually kept it secret for some time. I felt there info was that good. Lots of comments from coaches and players about other players etc. All in all the best NFL teams coverage on the net. Players coaches and lots of TV commentators read this religously. This is a must get for any NFL/FF lover, they cover it all and have reporters in every NFL city working teams on a dialy basis. NFL Team Reports year around but in season for sure. Check them out!
