Normally we are against this sort of thing – for years we ignored an overall list since we think it distracts owners from reacting to the draft vibrations and trends.
That being said, in prepping our CFO Drew Smith’s efforts in the industry expert league, the Fantasy College Football Invitational (FCFI), it is good to know where everyone else is coming from, sorta like Sun Tzu challenges us to know thy enemy better than we know our friends.
Sooner QB Landry Jones grades out as the top QB projection in the BCS Conferences (Icon SMI)
On that note, I took Drew’s Projections of Fantasy Points per Game (see the outputs on our Cheatsheet Customizer), and calculated a very crude VORP or “Value Over Replacement player” for the unique 18-owner, all-FBS, 2Q-2R-2W-1TE format of the FCFI.
But to make it our own, we have renamed it the Talent Excess Budgeted Over Walkon – yes it is the TEBOW indicator!
The addition of the second QB makes that position quite a bit more valuable since we now measure QB1 versus QB37 instead of QB19, likewise WR appears much less valuable since one must only start two rather than traditional three (or for TEBOW, WR37 is now the baseline rather than WR55).
We ran the digits, sorted by TEBOW and the following is the Top 70 (QB Heavy!) as we see it for the FCFI Draft going on RIGHT NOW! Read the rest of this entry →
Vince Mullins and Drew Smith introduce our most comprehensive rankings for fantasy college football for 2011!
You will learn why Oklahoma State WR Justin Blackmon and Oklahoma WR Ryan Broyles deserve to be the first players taken overall, and why you can wait on QBs until after your RB and WR starting lineup is filled.
You can argue whether Justin Blackmon (Icon SMI) or Ryan Broyles deserves the top WR ranking - what should not be debated is that these are the top 2 picks of 2010 fantasy college football!
CFO (Chief Fantasy Officer) Drew Smith updates this constantly with news (follow him on Twitter @fcbdrew for his updates) – for a frame of reference here are links to his Aug 9 preseason positional rankings:
Now for a quick peek at my all-FBS Top 144 College Fantasy Football running backs of 2011. I have already heard that my Top 20 is a lot different than the other sites, so I like that. Projections and Customizer coming soon.
