Fantasy Football 2011 Projections Review
The left column is the projections I made on 08/03/11 on Suicidefantasyfootball.com. The right column is the actual rankings at the end of the 2011 NFL regular season.
As you can see my divisional champions went 2 for 8.
As for positional fantasy finishes, I was off…big time. I did semi-decent with QBs and RBs, but when it comes to WRs, TEs, Ks, and DEFs, I was way way off, not getting anyone in the top 5 right.
Since it was so early into the pre-season, injuries were the death of me. We had not learned about Peyton’s 3rd neck surgery yet. Who knew Jamaal Charles would be out for the season so quick. For the WRs, I projected which teams would have stud WRs, however projecting the right WR on the team was my Achille’s heel.
