We will not distribute or make available submitted player projections until the close of NFL's regular season on December 30, 2007. After December 30, 2007,
we will prepare and publish the relative ratings of all of the player projections according to the scoring system below:
Scoring
At the close of the regular season, we will evaluate each player's value as determined by the past season's statistics according to the
method described in our guide for evaluating players in a fantasy points league. We will
evaluate players according to a ten team league, using a standard Yahoo public league team format
(QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, K, DEF, Bench, Bench, Bench, Bench, Bench, Bench) and scoring format (specific point allocations
here). We will evaluate
based on a player's aggregate statistics for the season - not on a per game basis. As described in our guide, we will measure each player's value as the number
of points generated over the best "waiver wire player" in that player's classification. For specific details see the player valuation section of our guide.
In this way, we will assign each player a single numerical value based
on their importance in a standard fantasy football league. We will repeat this process for each submitted or collected set of player projections, assessing
a single value to each player according to that set of projections. Each set of player projections will be evaluated by determining the difference between
each player value as determined by the projection and as determined by the season's actual results. The score for the set of player projections will be
the sum of the squares of these differences. The projections with the smallest sums will be the top ranked projections, published on this website.
We're looking forward to the season starting up, and getting back to watching some football! When it's all over though, we'll sift through the projections and see who did the best job
at predicting the season. We have some pretty strong sites in this contest, and we're looking forward to getting to the results! Direct any questions regarding the submission, scoring, or rules of this competition to
