It's NCAA basketball tournament time, and The Fake Basketball is once again providing cheat sheets:
From The Fake Basketball team: "Much like last season, we are bringing you a wide array of tools and information to help you with any of your NCAA Tournament Fantasy needs. Our Customizable Bracket and Rankings Excel has no peer on the market for your March Madness draft needs, but there's so much more: brackets, bracket analysis, individual player rankings, draft strategy, sleepers, locks, injuries, play-in round analysis, you name it, we have it in our comprehensive Tourney Package."
Registration is now open for our college basketball tournament fantasy leagues. Our offering provides a means to play fantasy sports during the classic March NCAA tournament and is one of our more popular fantasy games. We offer a number of different formats for this game but the most popular is the standard player pool approach where the further your players advance, the more points your fantasy tournament team scores. Some leagues make things more interesting by limiting the number of players that you can select from a given team. Others put restrictions on the number of players that can be drafted from each seed. Create your league now and enjoy the tournament like never before!
Over the years, we've received a number of requests from commissioners to be able to view email addresses from users in their leagues. Due to our privacy policy, we've avoided providing direct access - however, we did create custom league pages where new users were warned that joining that league would expose their email address to the commissioner (and they could choose to either join the league or not).
To simplify the process, we've added a new league setting called 'Require Managers To Share Email Addresses' that commissioners can set to 'Yes' when they create their league. Once set, potential league members will be prompted with the following warning: 'The commissioner for this league requires that they can see the email address associated with each league member. Please confirm that you still want to join this league?'. At that time, users can choose to 'Join' or 'Leave' the league.
...
Following a number of user requests, we've enhanced our salary cap add/drop process by adding a shadow interface where players can be added and dropped without impacting moves. As changes are made, a running total of 'Pending Moves' (player adds) is shown, along with a warning that pending changes must be saved. Once player changes are made that fit under the salary cap and contain your desired players, select the 'Save' button - only then will new player additions count against your total number of moves. If you wish to cancel all player changes, select the 'Discard' button (no moves will be counted).
Please note the following:
- This change will only be made available for salary cap leagues that limit the number of free agent moves and allow unlimited player selection.
- This change will be made active starting with the college basketball tournament in March.

“There are no sites out there that support short term or playoff rotos - so I was thinking, why not create our own?” – and with that simple email in March 2008, the initial concept of what would become Fantasy Postseason was born.
We were just a few guys who had been friends for years, loved sports, and loved fantasy sports. Unfortunately for us, there were no fantasy sites out there that did anything for the postseason (our favorite time of year to play it). To make things worse, the time and effort involved to track everything manually was growing exponentially by the year, and was putting one of our favorite pastimes in serious jeopardy. In lieu of scrapping it forever, we decided at that critical moment to automate it, and wound up creating a site of our own.
The months that followed were intense, but by September 2008, FantasyPostseason.com was somehow up and running, and ready to roll for the MLB Playoffs. Our first users...

We're through three rounds of postseason fantasy football (PFF) and there are some surprising names at the top of the leading scorers list (using standard scoring). Of course, by the end of the Superbowl we expect to see some more Patriots and Eagles scattered throughout this list.

Here are the Fantasy Postseason staff rankings of the Top 10 WRs for postseason long leagues:
1. Brandin Cooks - NE - Up and down throughout the year, but is the WR1 on the team favored to win the Superbowl.
2. Michael Thomas - NO - Over 100 catches on the year and dominated the Panthers this year in their regular season matchup.
3. Antonio Brown - PIT - He would be the top ranked receiver, but he's coming off a calf tear and who knows what he'll be able to do on the field.
4. Stefon Diggs - MIN - Receiving touchdowns in last three games for the Vikings. Their WR1 on a team that could be playing the Superbowl at home.
5. Adam Thielen - MIN - He's had some monster games this year - expect another in the posteason. 91 catches on the year with a ridiculous 14 YPC average.
6. Juju Smith-Schuster - PIT - If Brown can't return, Smith-Schuster will put up big numers. He finished the Week 17 win over the Browns with 143 yards and a...
Here are the Fantasy Postseason staff rankings of the Top 12 RBs for postseason long leagues:
1. Le'Veon Bell - PIT - Bell's YPG averages are down in both the pass and run game. But he's been a stud in the playoffs and we expect him to play at least 2 games.
2. Dion Lewis - NE - We all know that we can't trust a Patriots RB in fantasy right? Lewis has bucked the trend and has been consistently getting touches. With over 30 touches per game in the last two games, Lewis is primed to hold down the backfield during the Pats postseason run.
3. Todd Gurley - LAR - Breakout season for this Georgia back. Problem is they have a tough first round matchup vs the defending NFC champs and they could only play 1 game.
4. Jay Ajayi - PHI - Expect Foles to hand the ball off a lot to Ajayi. The Eagles lost their offensive leader when Wentz went down but they still have home field throughout the NFC playoffs.
5. Latavius Murray - MIN - Murray is...
Here are the Fantasy Postseason staff rankings of the Top 12 QBs for the postseason:
1. Tom Brady - NE - Brady's output has slumped a bit towards the end of the season, but he leads the team with the best chance to win the Superbowl (again).
2. Ben Roethlisberger - PIT - Pittsburgh should play 2 games. The question is whether or not PIT can break the curse and beat NE in Foxborough.
3. Case Keenum - MIN - FiveThirtyEight.com gives the Vikings a 33% chance of playing at home for the Superbowl and Keenum has been efficient this season with 22 TD against 7 INTs.
4. Drew Brees - NO - Brees had a strong run game to lean upon this year and that is evidenced by his 270 YPG passing average (lowest since 2005). The Saints are a solid team, with a twin rushing attack of Kamara and Ingram, but will need to win a few games on the road to get to the Superbowl.
5. Alex Smith - KC - The Chiefs should play 2 games and Alex Smith is having a strong year. While they lost...
Looking for a different type of fantasy league format for the NFL Playoffs? Try a 'Pick One From All Teams' format in which only one player is selected from each of the 12 teams that qualified for the playoffs. Instead of having players get scavenged from a team everyone expects to make the Super Bowl (i.e. Patriots), you can force managers to expand their horizons and pick a player from every team, even ones with zero hope of reaching the promised land.
In your Fantasy Postseason league setup, switch 'Limit Players Per Postseason Team' to Yes, and set the value equal to 1. Set your positions (QB, RB, WR, TE, K, DEF, etc.) to total 12. If there are a large number of managers in your league, adjust '# Of Managers That Can Own Each Player' to a number greater than one. When drafting, each manager must satisfy all of your league's position requirements, but can only do so with one player from each playoff...
Here's a review of the top 20 ranked players by average draft position (ADP). No surprises near the top, but you'll see Philadelphia (#1 NFC seed) and Minnesota (#2 NFC seed) are getting no respect. Losing Wentz is certainly a real issue for the Eagles - but according to FiveThirtyEight, the Vikings are favored to come out of the NFC and have a 19% chance of winning the Superbowl. The Saints players are probably getting more love than they deserved too; per FiveThirtyEight's projections, they only have a 11% chance to make the Superbowl.
1. Tom Brady QB NE (ADP: 1.60)
2. Todd Gurley RB LAR (ADP: 2.51)
3. Le'Veon Bell RB PIT (ADP:3.84)
4. Ben Roethlisberger QB PIT (ADP: 5.48)
5. Alvin Kamara RB NO (ADP: 7.10)
6. Drew Brees QB NO (ADP: 9.47)
7. Kareem Hunt RB KC (ADP: 10.25)
8. Rob Gronkowski TE NO (ADP: 10.43)
9. Jared Goff QB LAR (ADP: 11.75)
10. Mark Ingram RB NO (ADP: 13.60)
11. Alex Smith QB KC (ADP: 14.17)
12. Leonard Fournette RB...
There are a number of ways you can set up your postseason fantasy football league. This blog post will introduce you to the most popular formats, and also guide you through the required setup. As a reminder, our leagues are fully customizable, so commissioners are encouraged to review the league setup options to determine the best setup for their particular league. For questions, feel free to reach out to admin@fantasypostseason.com, as we're always available to review league setup questions.
Elimination Player Pool
This traditional survivor pool format is probably the simplest way to play postseason fantasy football. Managers enter their own teams and their team is frozen throughout the postseason. This is a 'set it and forget it' type of league. No trades or free agency is allowed. As teams are eliminated, the players on those fantasy teams are eliminated as well. In order to implement this league format, use the following...
Join our free NFL postseason fantasy contest. For each round of the NFL playoffs, set your roster with any player that you want. However, you can only use that player once throughout the entire playoffs, so pick wisely. The top 4 contestants win prizes, including an Amazon Echo to the first place finisher.
