Publisher's League Draft Results
Latest expert's draft round by round results helps give current fantasy draft trends
August is Fantasy Football Draft month to be sure. This past Saturday I took part in the Publisher's Challenge League sponsored by Fantasy Football Impact. There are 10 sites with a representative expert that were included. Here they are (in order of draft position):
Fantasy Football Blog - Thomas Harkins
Fantasy Football Impact - George Barber
Razzball - Sky Seymour
Eat Drink and Sleeper Football - Kevin Hanson
Rotoexperts - Thomas McFeeley
Gridiron Experts - Mike Rodriguez
Fantasy Insights - Dish Adams
Fantasy Football Starters - Russ Bliss
Fantasy Sharks - Jim Bukowski
Gridiron Guru - Matt DiAntonio
The league is set up like a basic free Yahoo league with their basic non-ppr scoring. 15 round draft, start 1 QB, 2 RB's, 3 WR's, 1 TE, 1 K, and 1 D/ST; 6 from any position on the bench. Knowing what the results were may be of use to you as you look at what draft trends are currently.
Here is what happened round by round:
