Analyzing undefeated fantasy teams also gives a new way for owners to appreciate Manning, the top scorer in fantasy (even though he did put up an unexpected down game against Jacksonville in Week 6).
Forget about top draft picks Adrian Peterson,Cheap Jerseys Store, Doug Martin and Arian Foster — guys taken in middle to late rounds or even off the waiver wire have ended up on more 6-0 fantasy teams.
In CBS leagues, 8.2 percent of teams with Manning are undefeated at 6-0,Dallas Cowboys Jersey White, and only 0.3 percent are 0-6 — you'd almost have to try to lose to be winless with him.
Being undefeated this fantasy season has little to do with early-round draft strategy.
The other players most frequently on 6-0 teams: Wes Welker,Air Max 97 Scontate, Jordy Nelson and Reggie Bush, along with the Chiefs and Seahawks defenses. Plus Matt Prater,Cheap Shoes Australia Online, Denver's kicker.
According to data compiled by CBS Sports,Wholesale Authentic Jerseys, only two of the top 12 players most often on 6-0 fantasy teams were first-round draft picks in 12-team leagues — Jamaal Charles and LeSean McCoy. Two others, Peyton Manning and Jimmy Graham, were taken on average in the second round.
But 4.8 percent of CBS fantasy teams with DeSean Jackson are unbeaten — the 26th wide receiver off draft boards,Kanken Backpack Uk, according to FantasyPros.com. So are 3.8 percent of teams with Knowshon Moreno — an early-season waiver pick playing as one of fantasy's top running backs despite owners clinging to hope that Montee Ball will somehow take over as the Broncos' starter.
The list underscores a common lesson in fantasy — it's as much about finding value as seeking out top performers. Bush and Nelson aren't the absolute best at their positions, but they're returning much more than many players taken earlier. |
