Buds Board Keepers League

I had one and panicked. I went against my list. I turned my back on my friend. What kind of a person am i? I hate myself.

I try to always go for later birthday guys

bills09 wroteCOLONI try to always go for later birthday guys

Because?

I prefer later birthdays too.

Again because? Lol! Do you think it's lucky, has some correlation to success, just a random quirk, etc.

Love it

Who would have you taken on the list?

And honestly who doesn't like drafting? Most fun part of fantasy sports imo.

I will help you next year. I usually have 2 indepth lists.

2 lists eh. So the real list and....?

I usually target BPA on my list. I dont really consider age an issue. Im okay even drafting an over ager.

I believe Lipon was an over ager and he's done well for himself

Both are real lists haha.

Ones a list comprised of all draft related magazines rankings (I take the average and rank them accordingly) the second list is a list of guys that I target. This list is usually shorter (maybe 100 prospects). I usually cross reference both lists. For example sprong was the top player on my averaged list and he's the guy I had on my personal list for pick 25. I had colin white above him on my personal list but he was lower on my other. I decided to go with the higher offensive prospect.

Thats an interesting way of doing things. I should probably give more weight to scouting report rankings, I like the averaging approach, although there are a couple guys I would refuse to let skew that data, like Button's. But I think that's a pretty good way of minimizing your own bias.

I agree. I take age under consideration when fleshing out my board, but it is far from the most important factor.

Haha button. I take one look at his list, laugh and move on.

he has no bearing over either list.

I make my board independent of any draft lists/magazines because I don't want any outside influence to influence my board. Almost everyone will have the same first 25 guys or so anyway, so consensus rankings don't really mean shit into the middle rounds bc they will vary wildly. Its simply next man up on my own personal board for me.
