Fantasy Football is a fantasy sports game based on statistical results generated by the National Football League and/or college football players and teams. Leagues are organized with a set group of "owners" that compete in weekly head-to-head or cumulative points systems. Leagues hold a draft or auction before the start of the season to form rosters, and just like in real football, owners can make trades with other owners for players, and sign and waive players. The last few weeks of the season are generally used for playoffs to help determine the league champion.
Fantasy football has become increasingly popular in recent years. Networks such as NBC, ESPN, CBS and others have used this increased popularity to create web pages based on fantasy football.
This page will provide information on statistics of top football players, as well as provide links for some of the best pages to visit to learn more about fantasy football. There are books and videos that can help you build your fantasy team, and also connections to other Mahalo pages about fantasy football, as well as how to create a fantasy football league. All of this information put together will help you put together a new fantasy football league, or improve your team in your already existing league.
In addition, this page will give some rankings of players for the upcoming season. Although every league is different, and the scoring system is different in each league, an owner in a league can be fairly confident that the players listed below are probably going to be top performers in the upcoming year. This likelihood comes from their performance in recent years in the NFL, as well as what team they’re on, what players are around him on the team, what coaching system is used, etc. However, a fantasy football owner should take care to figure out the scoring system of his/her league to determine which players should be picked first.
