@ETMcgee, you hit the nail on the head. These rankings really seem to be geared towards H2H and the strategy of punting specific categories. The Howard and Blake Griffin rankings are clear examples of this. These guys are brutal for roto and bad for H2H in my opinion too.

Agree that Anthony Davis should not be listed at SF. He’s listed as PF on both Yahoo & ESPN.

Also, agree that Batum is way underrated in these rankings. All the pieces are in place for a full break-out season and I would aggressively rank him #4 and would not argue if someone took him over Carmelo.

I typically won’t be the guy to come in and hate on another’s work, but I am having a hard time not doing so with this list. i’ll typically agree with a lot and disagree with some, but these rankings are pretty bad in my opinion. I don’t know if these rankings are designed for h2h owners, but the way you seem to discount %s and TOs leads me to believe these rankings are not for the roto players.

You have a lot of older players who are already declining in the top 10, and i’m not sure anthony davis should really be considered a SF.

Also, I don’t agree at all with batum being outside the top 10 (with the players you ranked). He outperformed almost all the SF in the 5-10 range last year (+ carmelo), and that was while not starting part of the year, playing with the probably worst PG combo in the league (felton & crawford, neither of which would pass him the ball), and playing on a team that fired a coach mid-season. after the wallace trade he was pretty awesome (before he was shut down), and he was outperforming wallace even when wallace was the starter. He will finally be able to average closer to 35 minutes/game and doesn’t have to worry about being taken out of the game so an over-paid veteran gets extra minutes.
