These are actual people in the NFL....and each of them wound up in the Top 25 of their position for Week 7. Do you see why ranking players is so difficult. Some of them you never even knew existed! With that, here's my updated Chart on how I'm doing as a Ranker:
POSITION | WEEK 4 | WEEK 5 *** | WEEK 6 | WEEK 7 |
QUARTERBACK | 248 / 9.9 | 278 / 11.2 | 240 / 9.6 | 308 / 12.3 |
RUNNING BACK | 836 / 16.72 | 1112 / 22.24 | 632 /12.64 | 771 / 15.42 |
WIDE RECEIVER | 1502 / 30.4 | 1373 / 27.46 | 1335 / 26.7 | 1047 / 20.94 |
TIGHT END | 165 / 8.25 | 254 / 12.7 | 252 / 12.6 | 251 / 12.55 |
*** = I picked names out of a hat.
The scores reflected are total points and # of spots, on the average, I was wrong about any individual player. To get my points, I rank the Top 20 QBs, Top 20 RBs and WRs, and the Top 25 TEs. Then, I find the difference of where they finished for the week (on ESPN scoring) compared to where I ranked them. If I did not have them in the Top 20, 50, 25 and they finished there, I take the next available spot, 21,51 or 26 and add the difference to my score.
ANSWERS: Jackie Battle - Chiefs, Marcell Reese - Raiders, Riley Cooper - Eagles
Now, that you've seen my cool new blog tricks (like the chart?), let's talk about our.....
HAIL MARYS
Each week, on the podcast, we make a bold statement about something we think might happen in the upcoming games. They are intended to be bold, and they are intended to be something that would be shocking if it really came true. Well, before the season started, way before it started in some cases, we would make these Hail Marys about the upcoming year and looking back, it's quite comical. So, we thought, at the half-way point of the fantasy year it might be kind of cool to look at some of the things we said. You'll laugh at some...and be amazed at the wisdoom God has given us on others.......

3) Ryan Grant will have his best fantasy season ever!

5) Anthony Gonzalez will be the #2 WR in Indy!
