Henry at FourPointPlay posted the result of his Self Esteem League’s four-hour draft day. It’s very descriptive and fun to read. The quote, pick and pass of each round is also highlighted, along with odds on each team’s chances of winning.
Erik at Points in the Paint is offering his keen insights into rotisserie and head-to-head fantasy formats, with sample rosters included.
Matt Buser recently posted parts one and two of his great head-to-head guide at busersports.com. If you’re into roto scoring, he’s got primers for each position on his site, too.
Patrick at Give Me The Rock is starting to tick off his top 10 fantasy players at each position and has already covered point guards and shooting guards.
Yours truly has already posted his top 10 fantasy players at each position in 2009-10 at Dimemag.com: point guards, shooting guards, small forwards, power forwards and centers. I’ve already had a change of heart on some of those rankings, but on the whole I firmly stand behind them. There are valid disagreements and perspectives in the comments – read them and let me know what you think.
