My fantasy football research has BEGUN.
In the past, I had gone solely by points with a mental modifier for average draft position, (ie, "Okay, the top 3 QBs are off the board. Even though a QB outscores every other position, the next 5 QBs are basically the same, so no need to rush to get one...especially not when past league history shows I can get a QB in a few rounds") but last year, I changed it up...I did my usual points projection (which really just consists of going to like 2 websites because one of them gives you an average of 5 other sites' projections), but I put an actual NUMBER on the value that each player is worth, based on their projected performance vs. an "average" player at the same position (average being the worst guy who would still be a starter - so 12th QB, 36th WR, etc...except Defense and Kicker, where only a top 2 D gets a positive worth, and only the top K gets positive, because they're so hard to predict and bunched so closely for points)
I won my league, so I'm doing it again this year. Got my QBs, Ds, and Kickers done already. Tight ends tomorrow, and then RBs and WRs will get done throughout the course of the week, leading to our draft on Saturday.
I'm pumped this year. I'm gonna post a smack talk video under a different wrestling persona every week, which will keep me having fun whether my team rules (in which case I can be either a bit cocky or very much a face) or sucks (in which case I can qualify and complain like a heel)
