HOW WE ARRIVED AT OUR RANKINGS: The sources for our projections are ESPN, NFL.com and DailyDose.com's pre-season magazine 2008 statistical projections as well as Sportsline.com.
Stats used for WRs are: Receiving TDs (6 pts), Receiving YDs (1 pt / 10 yds), Rushing YDs (1 pt / 10 yds), Rushing TDs (6 pts) and Fumbles Lost (-2 pts).
So, for example, if one of the sources projected 1000 yards receiving (100 pts), 10 receiving TDs (60 pts), 100 yards rushing (10 pts), 1 rushing TD (6 pts) and 1 Fumble Lost (-2) for a WR in 2008, then the projection from that source for that WR would be 174 points (100 + 60 + 10 + 6 + (-2)).
The process is repeated for each source and for every player. The theory is taking several expert opinions into consideration will result in a more meaningful projection.
Our average projection is simply an average of the values from all 4 sources. The High and Low represent the highest and lowest value included in the overall calculation. The range is the difference between the High and Low and is a measure of risk. The greater the range, the larger the difference in expectations for the fantasy player determined by the experts.
* Only ESPN projected stats for Doug Gabriel.
