Fantasy Football Index Magazine Review

Fantasy Football Index Strategy Guide
Fantasy Football Index

Summary: If you love the mathematical side of fantasy football, Fantasy Football Index is for you. It scored high based on its outstanding stats section and fantasy analysis. It was notably off due to a confusing player detail section. But overall, Index continues to succeed as an insight read.

Positives: Fantasy Football Index had the best expert consensus rankings of all magazines reviewed. It also had a superb mock draft and outstanding fantasy analysis and articles.

Negatives: The player detail section, while containing excellent analysis, did not feature any statistics or projections of any kind. While the players were ranked within and without tiers, there was no actual ranking number next to the player name, which makes the section harder to use.

Overall Score: 80 Very Good
