2008 Player
Rankings and Projections
Why are rankings sometimes different
than the projections?
The rankings are based on the projections, the reward and the risk factor. For
example, Ryan Grant is projected to have more points than Maurice Jones-Drew but
Jones-Drew is a much safer pick and I would still select him before Grant even though
Grant is more likely to have better statistics.
What are risk and reward?
The risk factor is an indicator of how much lower a player could finish in the
end of season rankings and the reward factor is an indicator of how much higher he could
finish in the rankings. For example a low risk and low reward player could be a player who
has little upside because his number of touchdowns or carries will be limited but who has
been known to be consistant, pretty durable and has an offensive line with pretty good
depth.
