Well, because I spent so much time putting together my fantasy cheat sheet for my drafts, I thought that I’d be an absolutely terrible blogger not to share that kind of information as I’m actually quite happy with how it turned out. Its a combination of my own info and formulas as well as rankings on other sites. Please do keep in mind though, the following:

• I’m not an “expert”
• This is intended for keeper leagues and adds value for youth and “potential”
• The rankings use my own formula for “position scarcity”; meaning that the best defenseman gets a boost in rankings because there are fewer good defenseman; goalies get a huge boost since there are only 30 goalies max starting on one day
• These are not suggested draft rankings; this is how I value them, but you never want to pick a guy too far ahead of the rank you think the rest of the league puts him at (example: Alexander Radulov - I think he can be a stud, but you can probably get this guy in the 6th - 8th rounds so don’t take him too soon)

So, here it is. If you’d like in in Excel format let me know and I’ll send you a copy. If you think it sucks… well, that’s probably ’cause I’m not paid to do this and I’ve got to draw the line somewhere on spending time away from my laptop.
