Alright, guys, so I’ve been diving deep into fantasy football lately, trying to get a leg up on the competition for my upcoming draft. It’s always a scramble to figure out who’s gonna be a stud and who’s gonna be a dud, so I figured I’d share my process for checking out the latest rankings. It’s not rocket science, but it definitely helps!
Getting Started: Finding Reputable Sources
First things first, I needed to find some rankings I could actually trust. There’s a ton of junk out there, so I usually stick to a few reliable sources. I typically start checking them.
Digging into the Rankings
Once I’ve got my sources, I start really digging in. Here’s what my process usually looks like:
- Look at overall rankings: I start by getting a general sense of the top players. Who are the consensus top 10? Top 20? This gives me a basic framework.
- Check positional rankings: Then I break it down by position. Who are the top QBs? RBs? WRs? TEs? This is crucial because you need to know the relative value of each position.
- Compare across sources: I don’t just rely on one set of rankings. I compare what different experts are saying. Are they all in agreement on certain players? Are there any major discrepancies? That’s where you can find some real value.
My Personal Process
- Taking NotesI began to take down notes, jotting down things.
- Making coffeeThen I began drinking coffee and make my own little adjustments. I’ve got my own biases and gut feelings, so I tweak the rankings based on my personal preferences and league settings.
Putting It All Together
After all that, I started to make my own cheat sheet. It’s basically a combination of all the expert rankings, with my own notes and adjustments. This is what I’ll take with me to my draft, and it’s what I’ll use to make my picks.
So yeah, that’s my process for staying on top of the latest fantasy football rankings. It’s not perfect, but it’s worked pretty well for me over the years. Hopefully, it helps you out too! Good luck with your drafts, everyone!
