Alright, so I wanted to get a jump on my fantasy football league this year. You know, actually do some research instead of just picking names I recognize on draft day. So, I set out to find the top fantasy football players for 2023. Here’s how I did it, step-by-step, and what I found out. Hopefully this saves some of y’all some time and headaches!
Step 1: Started with The Basic
First, I just did a simple search. Nothing fancy, just typed in “top fantasy football players 2023.” I figured that would give me a general overview of the big names to look out for.
Step 2: Checked Many Websites
I didn’t just stick with the first result, though. I opened up a bunch of different websites, like, you know, the big sports sites, fantasy football blogs, and so on. I wanted to see if there was a general agreement on who the top players were.
Step 3: Made My Own Notes
As I was going through these sites, I started making my own list. I jotted down the names that kept popping up, and I also made some notes about why they were considered top players. Was it because of their past performance? A new team? A change in their role? That kind of stuff.
Step 4: Looked at Player Positon
Of course, I had to pay attention to what position each player played. I needed to know which quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends were expected to be the best. I basically broke my list down into those categories.
Step 5: Watched for Injury Issues
This is something I’ve been burned by in the past. It’s really important to check for recent injuries or anything that might make a player less reliable. So I did some extra digging on anyone who had injury concerns.
Step 6: Draft Strategy Time!
Finally, I began using this information to think about my draft strategy. I realized who I was going to pick as first, second and third, and so on.
It was really a whole process of checking, making my own notes and researching.
