We've got so much stuff going on these days that sometimes really useful things get buried in some obscure part of the site, and readers aren't able to take advantage of them because they don't even know these features exist.
To remedy that, I've put together a list of draft prep essentials that might not always see a link on the home page. (And I'm probably leaving out about 10 more non-obvious things that could probably go on this list, so anyone should feel free to add to it.)
Unique Content
- Corey Bertram's Offensive Line Grid - easily the most comprehensive, in-depth feature of its kind and very important if you want to know more about the offense you're buying into.
- Kyle Fisher's Strength of Schedule Article - again, ridiculously in-depth, and separates run/pass defenses.
- Podcasts - team previews and excerpts from our XM show going over draft strategy, player evaluation, etc.
- IDP cheat sheet - Ted Rossman and Jason Thomas' constantly updated defensive player list.
- Extensive IDP Notes - nearly as many of these per day as offensive player notes.
- Recent Projected Stats/Rankings Changes - a dated/timed list of every player whose ranking and projected stats have been changed this preseason.
High-Tech Innovation
- Football Draft Software - top of the line tool for managing your draft/auction in real time during the draft.
- Updated MyRotoWire Area - Easy to use, customizable interface where you can get news on exactly the players you're interested in and even have them emailed to you or texted to your cell phone among many other features.
