Explanation of the stars after each pick:Ā Each one of my picks isĀ ranked for the day on a scale of one to five stars. The more stars that a pick receives represents the more confident I am in that selection. Picks that I give five stars (āāāāā) are players that you almostĀ have to own and I have no reservations about owning at their price.Ā Players that get four stars (āāāā) are players that I think are strong picks to build your roster around. Ā Three-star players (āāā) are middle-of-the-road solid picks who are fairly reliable to produce a good game. Picks receiving two stars (āā) are high-risk, high-reward players who do offer enough upside to be in my picks, but also have a significant risk factor that makes them dangerous. Ā One star (ā) players are picks that are the best option around that price point, but who I donāt think are great options. Ā I would take any one-star player over any option not in my picks, but they arenāt picks I would build my roster around.
As part of my new star-studded coverage, my plan is to track the points-per-dollar return from each of the categories in the coming month and report how many fantasy points are returned for each star-level of picks. If you have any feedback on the new star system or any other formatting changes that would be helpful to you, feel free to reach out on Twitter or in the comments section at the bottom of the page.
