This is the best article of its type I have ever read. No check that. It is the only article of its type I have ever read and it is spectacular. Thanks
Thanks Stephen – I really appreciate that.

Great series, helped me with a lot of leagues and now I’m winning!

This is absolutely incredible and I plan to use it this year for sure! Quick question…do you have a system of inflation/deflation in regards to drafting young players and older players?

Just wanted to say that, when I did have to rebuild a dynasty team many years ago, this set of articles helped out immensely. Really valuable reading! Not only would it be interesting to see if there are any updates to the strategies and thoughts, but I echo the idea of seeing how the dynasty team is doing now.
