		<description>Thanks for the complement. This kind of analysis is probably even more appropriate for football because there are more positions and the scoring system is usually simplier (points). I did try it once with fantasy football a couple of years ago and found pretty much what you said, RBs and TEs get the bump, while you can wait a while to pick a QB. However, that led me to draft Todd Heap and Kellen Winslow (it was a 2 TE starter league) way too high in the same year they both got hurt. Sometimes uncertainly can overwhelm good intentions and planning.</description>

		<description>This is really intriguing stuff.  If I understood the nature of statistics as comprehensively as you do, I&#039;d like to see if you could apply the same theory to fantasy football.  Is it worth it to overvalue a tight end like Antonio Gates simply because he is the best at his position?  Is there really statistical validity to the theory to draft running backs early on and wait on wide receivers/quarterbacks?  It&#039;s definetly interesting to consider using this model.</description>
