Wrap-Up of Fantasy Football Start Sit
In a word: Accountability
Our weekly "Wrap-Up" column is part of FootballDocs In-season content. All of FootballDocs In-season content is 100% free.
It's Tuesday, and that means it is time to face the music and/or toot our
horn as we do a wrap-up on our fantasy football start sit advice from who to start in the previous week -- both good and bad. In
fact, every wrap-up is kept and posted below as a permanent public record of
our fantasy football start sit calls and how good or bad those calls on who to start were. Why?
Three reasons:
1. Accountability.
2. Confidence in our analysis and recommendations.
3. Because the Docs take winning every bit as seriously as you do.
Thank you for visiting and welcome to FootballDocs Fantasy Football - "Where the geeks meet the gridiron."
Wrap Up of Fantasy Football Start Sit
NFL Week 1
Tuesday, September 15, 2009
If you are looking for headline players on this list (i.e. Adrian Peterson, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, etc.), you won't find them. Anyone can recommend these clear fantasy football
studs with good results, but is that really helping anyone? After starting your studs, use our Fantasy Football Start Sit column, where we recommend players that are not clear studs in an
effort to help put your team over the top. Also be sure to check our Fantasy Football Weekly Rankings, where we rank the top players at each offensive skill position each week to further help you
with those critical start sit decisions.
