Building The Ideal Fantasy Football Cheat Sheet

By Timothy Johnson


There are four rules to keep in mind when deciding on a fantasy football cheat sheet. Whether you are downloading a cheat sheet or you're producing your own, the below checklist talk about the four things to consider:

1.Have Rankings Broken Out by Position Make sure you have got Position Rankings. You would like to be in a position to quickly see how many RBs, or WRs remain. This is essential primarily later during the draft. Late in the draft you're going to be drafting depending upon need. You might require a QB or perhaps an DEF and it'll become crucial that you have got those and each position broken out on their own. Needing to check through your 1 large cheat sheet for the best draft-able player in a targeted position can be a problem you don't need at draft time.

2.Have Fantasy Football Draft Rankings by Divisions Be sure to take a cheat sheet separated into tiers. This means you'll have to make sure you know where significant drop-offs are within your expectations for players and where they are very close in worth. For instance, say that you think that Matt Forte(ranked at 14) and David Wilson (ranked at 15) are close but both are significantly less valuable than Steven Jackson (ranked 13). You need to make sure that your cheat sheet accounts this. It's important to account for that since you need to be aiming for the lower end of levels instead of the highest part of the tier since that will enable you to wait until later picks to draft players just as valuable as players drafted a round or 2 earlier.

3.Have Average Draft Position (ADP) Any and all decent fantasy football cheat sheets needs to have some expected draft order. This is optional based upon the spot where you draft since many web sites have ADP available. However, in the event that you're drafting offline it's extremely important to make sure you have this information handy. This inhibits you against taking someone too soon. For instance, if you think Jimmy Graham should be a top player but he's typically drafted 23rd overall, you might as well hold off until round 2 or three to pick him. Not accounting for that is a faster way to be unsuccessful.

4.You need to have some criteria and/or strategy to let you know who to draft It's important that you approach any draft with a strategy. The most frequent and fundamental type of all these strategies is to create basic position guidelines and/or target drafting certain positions within certain rounds. For instance, I prefer to pick a TE earlier and simply wait on QBs. An illustration of the position by round plans can be planning to draft an RB in round 1, a TE in round 2, and then a WR in round three. Both of those practices are simple to test out and setting these kinds of plans early on will make your draft far less stressful and much more successful.
