2007-2008 Player Rankings

We got together four of the Cafe’s finest veterans and compiled their cheat sheets to help you prepare for your upcoming fantasy draft. To compile these rankings, each player was assigned a rank by each ranker; the lower this score compared with other players, the better. By combining these lists, we can see both individual preferences and the overall consensus among the rankers. Guards and forwards not ranked by a specific expert received a score of 65 and unranked centers received a score of 35.

Please note that this is a tool for draft preparation; it will not be updated throughout the season. Enjoy, and good luck in your drafts! Don’t be afraid to send a comment or question to the rankers. We would love to hear your feedback.
