Look at teams depth charts and who's performing well in preseason, everyone will know all about the RB's the best positions to find a sleeper at is you're 3rd or 4th WR or a TE.

Thank you. I know I could just Google fantasy football and see what I get. I just didn't want to waste my time on sites that weren't very credible.

Guys, she wants cheatsheets.....nothing wrong with that. (Mecca, she didn't need a clinic on the subject, sheesh.)

My faves....

http://www.footballdiehards.com/

That one is cool 'cause you can load your league's scoring settings and it will put players in the appropriate order.

http://www.kffl.com/

This one is pretty good, it tiers the players so if you can't decide which player to draft, take the higher tiered one.

Oh, and you're gonna want to draft kickers early and often. Don't get rattled if everone else starts grabbing RB's first, you can pick them up in later rounds.;)

Thanks. I'm thinking about my kicker in the fourth round. QB, WR, TE, K.
I already know that the QB I'm dropping won't be available when I get to pick. We can see each others' teams and know pretty much who everyone's going to keep. Out of Barber, Westbrook, and Palmer, the one I don't keep will be gone in the second pick. I've already been told...lol.

I was being facetious about the kicker thing..... I won't even draft a kicker in my live league, I wait until week 1 and pick one off waivers after depth charts are shaken out. I actually didn't even draft a defense last year, I just picked up a different one each week based on matchups. I won that league, too.

Picked up a couple of good magazines today. Getting pretty pumped.

I thought all women drafted based on the color of the uniforms

My favorite color is blue. That's why I'm a Chiefs fan.

I would also highly recommend www.pigskinsanity.com for week to week questions. It is run at least in part by Mile High Mania and has several very knowledgeable players who are more than willing to answer questions when you have them.

Last year I did all the work myself, and got first place in my league. I copied/pasted stats of the best 20 at each position into Excel, and did the FF scoring calculations based on the previous season. It didn't take all that long, and since I hadn't played in a few years, it gave me a good idea of how to draft. I came up with a pretty good draft board, and was able to see the point differences between positions.

But, a few good/lucky decisions, like Ryan Grant, helped.... oh, and Peyton Manning throwing to Randy Moss. :)

I'm sorry but spending money on magazines is a waste,first off their deadline was 2 months ago so those rankings etc. are well behind current news(i.e. I'll bet you most if not all still have Favre retired) and secondly they're written by football fans just like us so when it comes down to it it's nothing more than a matter of opinion.

Hope I didn't piss on your parade and good luck but if you want to be the best at FF just remember it's alot of luck and alot of going with your gut and not some geek writing an article.

And fantasy football sites are made by whom? The same geeks who write the articles, but also know how to host a website. No pissing on my parade. One could have someone ranked 3rd, wile another has that same player ranked 9th. I know it's a matter of opinion, but they're just guides. I'm making my own lists.

And yes, they are outdated.

One good thing is that it lists what the bye weeks are next to the players. I won't have a laptop with me when I draft, so that's less writing I'll have to do.

Oh I know who the sites are by that's why I'm saying why waste money on a magazine,and as for those bye weeks I noticed earlier you were checking out FFToday,so why not just go to their list of bye weeks and print it?
