How to pick players from each position? (1 Viewer)

[lilmink]

I have my players from each position down to like 4 guys minimum that I like alot for GPP and then a set of guys I like for cash games as well. How should i narrow down these even more? Im looking for less variance in my lineups and I having trouble from here. Any advice?

Re-evaluate your players without touchdowns.

Touches = consistent production.

RB touches leads to more consistency.

WR targets (and TEs) lead to more consistency.

dig into the defensive matchup of each

Thank you both very much.

I have been trying to use:

Fantasy points allowed/game ranking to help pick out easier matchups at the position.

Looking at the over/under for the game

Looking at the targets/game for a team. For gpp looking to see if a player is trending up/might be getting more due to injury.

Using Home RBs and Away WRs (I would assume most are from the underdog team when away)

Picking stacks where both the Qb/target has crossover of multiple categories above. Ie Eli goes against the #8 for Qb pts/game and #3 for Wr pts/game, is in one of the higher o/u games of the week, and is the underdog.

Usually I narrow a list down to a handful of guys at each position and go from there.

I really liked this article by Dodds, but it was written based on last year's figures so it's out of date. I'm trying to tweak the values to make it work for this year. Just started today.
