Fantasy Football Average Draft Positions That Do Not Make Sense
Markets are generally efficient. However, not every decision point in every market can be efficient or no one would ever make any profit. Fantasy football markets are often efficient (just like real-life markets) but occasionally feature price points that do not reflect reality. This could hinge on emotion, overconfidence in something repeating itself that is unlikely too, or a base misunderstanding of the principals that power fantasy football. As I continue to participate in expert "mock drafts", the FFPC Pros Vs Joes league, DRAFT Best Ball Leagues, and standard weekly-management leagues, I've noticed a group of players who are being drafted in downright quizzical positions. These players are being either over or under-drafted base on core errors by the market not understanding the value proposition that the players offer.
