Okay, here’s my attempt at a blog post, following your instructions and example:
Alright, so I dove headfirst into prepping for my 2024 fantasy football season. I gotta say, figuring out rankings is always a beast, but this year felt extra wild. Started off like I always do, with a big ol’ cup of coffee and a blank spreadsheet. My mission? To craft my own personalized NFL Fantasy Football 2024 Rankings.
Step 1: The Data Dump
First, I needed data, and lots of it. I hit up a few of my go-to sites that spew out stats like there’s no tomorrow. I grabbed projections for player points, yards, touchdowns – the whole nine yards. I basically copy-pasted everything into my spreadsheet, creating this massive, messy data dump.
Step 2: Sorting the Mess
Next up, I had to organize this chaos. I spent a good chunk of time sorting players by position (QBs, RBs, WRs, TEs, you know the drill). Then, within each position, I started comparing their projected stats. This is where the real fun began – trying to figure out which numbers actually mattered most.
Step 3: My Secret Sauce (It’s Not That Secret)
Now, everyone has their own “secret sauce” for rankings, right? Mine is pretty simple: I weigh projected points the heaviest, but I also factor in things like consistency (how often they put up good numbers) and upside (their potential to explode for huge games).I also made some minor manual changes myself.
Step 4: The Eye Test
After crunching the numbers, I did what I call the “eye test.” I went through the list, player by player, and asked myself, “Does this feel right?” Sometimes, the numbers might say one thing, but my gut tells me something else. Maybe I think a player is due for a breakout year, or maybe I’m worried about an injury. Those gut feelings? I listened to ’em.
Step 5: The Tiers
Once I had a rough ranking order, I started grouping players into tiers. This helps me visualize the value drops within each position. Like, I might have five quarterbacks in my top tier, meaning I’d be happy with any of them as my starter.
For exmple:
- Tier 1: Superstars that’ll carry your team.
- Tier2: Solid start,reliable productors.
- Tier3: Little bit of the risk,but high upside.
Step 6: Constant Tweaking
Finally, I know these rankings aren’t set in stone. I’ll be tweaking them all the way up until draft day. New information comes out, players get injured, and my opinions change. It’s a never-ending process, but that’s part of the fun!
So, That’s it. That’s my whole process from start to * this helps you in some way. Good luck, and may your fantasy team dominate this year!
