Sports Illustrated Fantasy Rankings

If this has already been posted I apologize but I've been in Wyoming and Montana fishing for the past two weeks so haven't read all the threads.

JJ Arrington #16 Running Back

Fitz at #17 for WR's Boldin @ #22

Warner #24

Rackers #26

And as you would expect no listing at all at TE.

i don't have a problem with a single one of those.

Most publications have Boldin ahead of Fitzgerald.

I bet, if we had a top 10 QB, Fitz and Boldin would also be top 10.

I love Warner being #24. I've got him in just about all my FF teams. I'm going to love it when i'm in the palyoffs because my #2 Qb threw for 4500 yds and 33 tds.

depends on the scoring format. if it's more heavily weighted towards tds fitz usually has the edge. receptions it's all boldin.

Does anyone else not think that Rakers at #26 is a little out of whack (I'm assuming that means he's in 26th place of all kickers in the NFL)? That means 25 teams have a better kicker than us. I would have at least put him in the top 15.

I think the reason Fitz is rated higher than Boldin is because they think he will score more TD's. If Boldin moves back to slot WR, that is a distinct possibility.

it's not about how good he is, it's about how many points he'll score. our offense stunk last year which translates into few points. even with projecting a better offense this year we probably still don't rate in the top half of the league in scoring.

I had Mike Vanderjagt on my fantasy team last year who is considered one of the premier kickers. I had Rakers as my second kicker. Vanderjagt kicked 2 less field goals than Rakers, but he did have 59 extra points compared to only 28 for Rakers. That averages out to a 1.6 point a game difference which isn't a whole lot. That's why I was questioning Rakers being rated as #26.

1.6 pts a game can be a big deal. particularly in lower scoring leagues.

I hate fantasy football.

I hate fantasy football.

That's easy for you to say. Your whole life is a fantasy. Some of us have to live vicariously through sports figures to experience what you do. Would you begrude us this small pursuit of happiness?

In the league I was in, the average winning score was over 100 points every week. I wasn't sure whether it was football or bowling.

At least I was consistant.
