Gridiron Experts Early 30 Fantasy Forecast

Here at Grid-X, we not only give out our rankings, we also show you how we reached our decisions on how to grade each player. The following is a brief description on each of the categories we used to rank these players on a scale of 0-3:

  1. Weapons: Surrounding players to help put up big numbers
  2. System: A good understanding of the offensive system being run
  3. O-Line: How much time does the quarterback have, and history of giving up sacks
  4. Game Breaker: History of big fantasy games, or asked to just manage the game
  5. Injuries: Any nagging injuries or history of getting hurt
  6. X-Factor: Division / Strength of Schedule / Contract year for any of his receivers
