McGuire taking on increased work load. Early in the year before Parker's minutes started winding down they were taking turns as "A" and "B" defender, with the other defending a little wider. With Parker gone I can see McGuire taking this role full time whilst on the field

So does McGuire slot into the 13 then?

hoping Ma'u keeps his CTR DP and Cartwright keeps his HLF next season. Can't go wrong stocking up on second rowers, says I.

I really appreciate the responses. I only asked cause I thought Milch was sounding needy.

Well if we need more questions who benefits if Greg Bird gets the axe?

@Milchcow, do you have a statsheet with everything from this year yet, or waiting for conclusion of the finals to release it?

@No Worries - I know some guys have said Glenn and Gillett. However I am on the Jai Arrow boat, he played there in Round 19 when C. Parker and Gillett were out. (Glenn played that week as well.) He looks like he has been groomed for the position and big minutes. Gillett is great but imo Broncos are better keeping him as a more offensive threat.

@Garden Chair - Statistically Cowboys outperformed the Sharks offensively (By 4 points) and defensively (By 49 points). So from that it would look like the Cowboys will be more on the offensive, when it comes down to Ponga, Bowen and Barba. Bowen has outscored Barba 4/7 times this week when they both played. Bowen also outscored Ponga last week who was in his debut game. (So I would go Bowen, but it does comedown to who you think will win the game.)

@ Bluetige - He played 21 games this year giving him an average of 43 points a game. 11 games at CTR, 9 games at FB, and 1 game off the Bench.

From memory MF Paasi was slotting in at Lock in place of Bird throughout the year but his bump in minutes never translated into large amounts. So regarding Paasi

RRound 7 - Paasi started at lock for 50 minutes (5 minutes more than previous week), while Bird was out. (Taia/James jumped from 60 minutes to 80 minutes.)

Round 15 - Paasi started at lock for 42 minutes.

Round 20 - Paasi started at lock for 38 minutes (James/Douglas increased minutes from previous week.)

So hypothetically if Greg Bird wasn't there next year. Paasi would end up starting, but it wouldn't change his value. When Bird wasn't there the time was spread across their forward pack. Resulting in minor bumps in minutes, but nothing significant.

I can put this year's stats up if you want. Not now because I'm on my phone, but next time I'm on my PC I'll post a link.

I would love it, it would make scrawling through all the information I am trying to a lot easier. Plus I am digging the super, incredibly early fantasy questions.

Ah yeah

I was hoping for James to be there with Douglas and Wallace starting props

Sorry if these gifs are annoying people.

Just reiterating the voting for NFL Fantasy Fanatic Awards.

Also don't stress too much about the Thread 51, Page 51 party. It will give us something to shoot for next year.

Anything to keep the thread ticking over.

There's a few of us that want to get to the end of this thread.

Thanks Random, that's some handy info right there, enough to know if he comes priced anywhere near a 43 ave then look at the better options.

Here's the 2016 stats sheet.

http://www.mediafire.com/download/5dks6icv6339m1d/2016_Prozone_stats.xlsx

Should be up to date for stats for up to finals week 2. 
Have to clean up a few things which I'll get to over the off season. 

But any requests, or if you notice any bugs please let me know.

There are bonus sheets in there for scores for the big daily fantasy platforms (they are missing 'missed goals' for any platform that has them as that stats isn't published in fantasy stats)

Also all the round data is collated in an 'all rounds' sheet at the end, which is a more convenient format if you want to use pivot tables. If you don't know how to do pivot tables, spend 5 minutes googling, its not really that hard , and you can show off your nerd skills by knowing how to use them.

At some point over summer I'll start work on the 2017 team planner - so any features you want please shout out and I'll see if I can put it in.

So an insanely early look at some players.

Jai Arrow - Has a 0.89PPM and looks to be ready to slot into the Lock position. (When starting he averaged 50 minutes over his two games) That would equate to an average of 44.5 points a game, while being priced at 23 points. So as long as he starts as I expect, he will be money.

Konrad Hurrell - Underpriced due to his start at the Warriors this year. He has averaged 40.7 points since being with the Titans while being priced at 32.7, so he has some value about him. Particularly if after a full preseason with the Titans and Taylor/Elgey get it together he could be more lethal.

Roger Tuivasa-Sheck - Not much to say, slow start of the year capped off with an injury. If he returns to previous form he is a steal considering his discount.

George Burgess - Another player who under performed this year. He only had 18 TB's this year and he is a guy who definitely has potential to bust open the game and cause havoc. So again one to watch. Also being averaged at 31.8 points for a guy who was scoring 50+ point games the year before.

SO uhh yeah... anyone got christmas plans?

Also Milchcow can we get previous years fantasy averages from players. Interested in knowing which guys went up the most, and went down the most this year.
