Rating and Ranking the Accuracy of Fantasy Football Projection Sites

There is a very good female fantasy football blogger by the name of Sara Holladay at http://www.fflibrarian.com/. After each season she does the major task of evaluating the most accurate fantasy football projections on the internet. This past Thursday she posted her story on this year's results along with rationale on how she ranks the sites.

This year CBSSports.com won the overall category.

Here's her published results of the last three seasons at the NYTimes Fifth Down Blog:
2007
2008
2009

For other contest winners in the 2009 Fantasy Sports Trade Association (F. S. T. A.) see http://www.fsta.org/blog/fsta-in-the-news/fsta-2009-awards-winners-announced

Now, I'm not real sure of what the best way to rank all the fantasy football projections would be for the most accurate rankings, but it can't hurt to look at how someone else has done it especially if you don't have the time to sit down with all the information for yourself.

May your fantasy football seasons become better and better with information like this.

8/19/10 UPDATE: Now she has begun to collate her yearly rankings from her dead laptop's hard drive into a multiyear assessment of the accuracy of fantasy projections for each position. See the later post: FFLibrarian's Multi-year Accuracy Results
