Every
fantasy season starts the same way: the Draft. Whether you
participate in a traditional or auction-style draft, the core of
your fantasy team comes from your ability to draft effectively.
Everyone prepares for the draft differently: some spend hours
researching information from multiple sources, some print out one of
the many draft lists available on the internet and follow it
blindly, and some just fly by the seat of their pants. Whatever your
degree of preparation, the end result is usually a list (whether
printed or just mental) of rankings or dollar amounts for players
from which you fill out your roster during the draft. The problem
with the lists most people use is that they are usually a direct
reproduction of someone else’s opinion, informed or otherwise. They
end up relying solely on the rankings of so-called “fantasy
experts,” yet have no idea how they came up with them. By using
these lists, they are, in essence, trusting someone else to draft
their team.
Some even choose to invest in so-called “premium content” for
which they pay large sums of money to get “fantasy expert’s” draft
rankings, dollar values, and so-called “fantasy projections” based
on their scoring system. Is there anything more worthless than
fantasy projections? Can anyone really see into the future at what a
player will do in any given game, let alone for the entire year? No
one who publishes any fantasy sports information has a crystal ball.
Given the same information, we all have an equal chance of guessing
correctly how well or poorly a player will perform. Why pay someone
else when it’s so easy to become your own fantasy expert?
We feel there is a better way to prepare for your draft. This
site was developed for two purposes. The first is to serve as a
central source for people looking for free fantasy content on the
internet. We research and identify sites that contain not only
thorough fantasy research but also rankings and dollar values from
which to prepare for your draft FOR FREE. The second is to enhance
the fun of draft preparation by giving everyone the ability to
create their own draft rankings. We often hear friends say, "I don't
have time to do all that work.” That’s understandable, and in some
cases, published cheat sheets from web sites and magazines work out
fine. However, once you take the time to develop player rankings of
your own, you will find that the results are worth the extra effort.
Our Fantasy Ranker is a simple, easy-to-use, powerful tool that
integrates fantasy information from dozens of sources and enables you to personalize you draft preparation
and dominate your draft by using the best rankings possible: YOUR
OWN.
We at Ranker Sports feel confident you will find the
information provided helpful and will be completely satisfied with
the benefits of investing in our Fantasy Ranker. We look forward to
earning your business. Happy Drafting.
