Nice find chadlincoln ;-D

Be interested to know where they got the Cafe Rankings from, though - we have positional rankings, but I don't remember seeing a top 200 anywhere :-?

(Especially as they have the Cafe ranking Soriano at #9 overall :-o )

Edit: and Podsednik at #39 :-o :-o

2nd Edit: There's another little problem with their average column as well. They have included the Sports Fanatics rankings in the average...except the rankings from SF are by position. So Arod, Pujols, Young, Santana, etc are all ranked at #1. Nothing wrong with that, but you can't include those rankings in making an average, when all the others are overall rankings, not positional rankings.

It's still a nice resource for having different sites all listed together, but the Average isn't 100% accurate.

That is a nice list. I wonder when they posted that for the first time...it would have been helpful for my draft last weekend. Those rankings seem to be much more in line with my personal rankings and would net some great draft picks especially when contrasted with the Yahoo rankings.

Probably deserves a book mark for next year.

Also, out of curiosity....does anyone have the cafe cheat sheet from last year? I'd like to contrast them to what actually happened last year.

Why is everyone on Yahoo ranked 101? Wouldn't that throw off the ranking?

I consolidate the live draft results from Yahoo and ESPN. The only list I need.

dunno 'bout yahoo, but espn's list only goes to #240. that's not enough. i feel more prepared with 350-400 players in my spreadsheet.

i think this list is pretty decent, some oversights notwithstanding.

You need to get the ranking by each position. This way when you copy/paste to Excel, you get 300 players.

This is a PDF, right? I don't have Acrobat at work. I'll have to check it out at home, apparently...
