Love the new format of the Roto Top 100. A definite rival for Dobber's guide (though I'm sure Dobber would scoff at having so many pictures in the guide).

So far the articles have been amazing lots of opinions and facts to think about come draft day. Starting on the team analysis tomorrow!

My favorite article so far is Pengwin's on drafting D late, but I may be slightly biased since it matches my personal philosophy. He uses a Hit BS league as an example but I would argue it holds in a standard league as well. Draft D for peripheral stats and take the 10-15 less points that a big name D provide.

Its like reading a whole new Dobber guide with a variance of opinions on selected players from each team. Great read indeed.

I'm really impressed of the effort everyone has put in. It really is like a second guide. Well done!

I have one comment/suggestion though:

For the team section - it's really good to see so many contributors. However I wonder if it's worth having a bit of consistency, especially focusing on the roto angle. Since this is a roto guide and not 'the' guide, perhaps for each team there should be core/template of sections/themes discussed from a roto perspective, and then a bit at the end for their own take/perspective generally. At the moment it's pretty random and sometimes they're talking about the team in general and then at the end I wonder: 'what about roto'?

Thoughts?
