    I had planned to do something like that, but work got extremely busy the last two days.
    I am sure several guys drafting would have used lists like this, however it was mentioned earlier in the thread that most projections try to bring teams as close to 8-8 as possible.

    And if the dobberites are all using different ranking systems.. then this calculation should accumulate the results of the different ones used.

    For a mass-popular sport like football, yes - there are no "smarter" projections than Vegas, as they need to make their dollar through their own accuracy.
    I'd be pretty certain that my picks would win a sum of 4-teams from any betting agency.
    A couple teams fell very nicely to me that were ranked 2-3 spots higher on a bettors list.

    You are taking Bengals and Chargers right? Yes, cause my eyes were getting big hoping you let them slip once more! haha

    I just need GB to get 13 wins, Houston 10 wins, NYG 9-10 wins, and SF to muster up 5-6 wins.. Then I might have a chance!!
