FANTASY FOOTBALL- HEAD START

It is never too early to start planning for the up and coming football season. There are a couple of things to keep in the back of your head though. First, there are not many rookies that make a big impact right away. There are the occasional Petersons out there but even then you can grab them later or trade for them after a slow start. What you really want to focus on is having the best team out there in your first playoff game. Plan your draft around whenever your playoffs start. Don't worry about the second week of the playoffs. Your main focus needs to be on week one of the playoffs, being that most of your league will make them anyways. This is where most people fail. Let’s face it, out of a twelve team league; at least eight teams make it. If you plan and strategize say for week 13 when the playoffs start, (not all start then) your team should be looking good anyways. Play your studs, but on that first playoff week, BAM. That’s when it all counts. Using this concept, you will not fail. Only way to fail is that you will just have a terrible draft, and even then you can bail yourself out with free agent pick ups thru out the regular season.

fantasy football views

I've been a fantasy football member now for 5 years. Won several championships. Went to free (expert) sites. Even paid money for (expert) sites. Are they worth it? Do you get your monies worth or is it better to just do it on your own?
What I have found these so called experts may not want you to know.
Drafting- I found very important because some think their teams are set in stone, and alot of times they want way to much for players. So it is important to have a good draft. Paid experts can help but free sites come in very handy too.
Advise from experts-I find its hit and miss. They actually convinced me to trade away A. Peterson from the Vikings and Edwards from the Browns while they were hot. Bad move. They were hot all year.
My advise- Your going to hit and miss on your own. If your a beginner maybe its wise to join some free sites but paid sites I will no longer recommend to anyone. There a few, free sites I like.
