Best Site for Dynasty Rankings/Articles?

Postby akpipeline23 » Thu Oct 12, 2017 9:34 am

I'm fairly new to dynasty, and I was wondering what the best sites are for dynasty rankings, tools, and smartly written articles about dynasty topics. The main ones I've really been to are DLF and FootballGuys (although their content is mostly non-dynasty) - is there anything else I should know about?

I agree with the DLF. Both the site and forum are great sources of information.

I do DLF for the dynasty specific stuff, then supplement with redraft material when in-season. Footballguys is good, I like 4for4 too. Rotoviz if you like the numbers. Also, twitter. You can get a lot by following the right people.

Definitely DLF is the go to site. I like FootballGuys too.
Don't really do many others but for me the best learning experience is playing dynasty and lurking forums.

Twitter is a really good source following the right ppl

This is literally the reason why DLF is the best. It's the only place I've ever given my money to.

Articles and rankings are useful tools, but I find that the DLF forum is the best option. Articles are all well and good, but realize that they are written from a single perspective and always with bias (we all have bias). Rankings are generally put together by a handful of individuals (hopefully) and have some value but understand that scoring systems and strategy weigh heavily. They also would be much more useful broken into tiers rather than numbers.

Most importantly, no one writing articles, doing rankings, etc is anything more than you or me. They are someone that plays the game that reached a position where some consider them an "expert". They are just a person with experience in the game and many times not even for a long period of time. They aren't privy to some kind of insider information, a special collection of stats, etc. They are just devoted fantasy owners.

On the forum there is a much larger group of owners coming from a variety of experience. Collectively this information can prove to be more useful in the "real world" of the game.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

Some of the best visuals you can find from a statistical perspective is Sharp Football stats:

PlayerProfiler.com is a great site. Matt Kelley has the most entertaining FF podcast out there, and it tends to skew more towards dynasty than redraft.
Both are 12-team 1QB PPR dynasties

QB: Hurts, Howell
RB: Mixon, Jones, Sanders, Dobbins, Akers, Roschon, Dowdle, Kelley
WR: Nuk, Godwin, Cooper, Lockett, Flowers, Chark, Collins, Hollins, Tillman, Tolbert
TE: Hockenson, Chig, Trautman
Taxi: Willis, Z. White, M. Mims, T. Palmer

QB: Lawrence $5/3, Richardson $5/5, Minshew $1/0, Jones $1/0, Heinicke $1/0, Tyrod $1/0

I agree with Skip. This forum is better than any site IMO. Sure there are plenty of writers out there who I respect and enjoy reading. Waldman, Parsons, and Pasquino from Footballguys and McDowell on DLF are some of my favorites. Playerprofiler is a nicely run metrics site, but relies way too much on metrics IMO.

As far as "experts" go, this forum is where you should be.
