Fantays football tip

The fantasy football season in most leagues is at the halfway point. As I look back at my season and stress over what I've done right and wrong there are some valuable lessons to be learned. I've struggled almost every week with making roster moves and starting the most effective people. Because of this agony I have developed the ultimate formula for whom to start on any given week.

The very first thing, before any kind of analysis can be done, you have to know how your league is scored. More specifically you need to know how your league scores receptions and yardage. For example, in my league we get 1 point for every catch (WR, RB, TE) and .1 points for every yard.

This single stat is huge for making a draft strategy and then again for whom to start.

The second most important stat is learning who gets the most attempts and then who gets the most attempts in the red zone. This allows for very specific analysis of your players in the most important game time situations.

Taking in these three stats will make sure you have the most effective team playing each week. Fantasy football is a game of numbers and intuition. We all know it is impossible to predict each week who is going to have the best game, but this formula makes sure you have the best chance at garnering big points.
