RotoExperts basically offers the same things we do, and I'll be doing much of the same things I do over there that I did here. The kicker is that I now have a staff of 37 to work with instead of a staff of seven. I have two masters of business operations out there making deals, and I'll be working in tandem with Scott Engel and a couple of other managers to help everything run smoothly.
I'll contribute my "Gawron's Grids" rankings, projections, cheat sheets, and schedule analysis to RotoExperts, and they're chock full of great audio and video broadcasting content, which will expand even more. They also cover other sports like NHL, NASCAR, MMA, golf, and more. I will spend the next several months tidying up the form (aesthetics) and function (organization, layout, navigation) of the RotoExperts website. And finally, I'll get to implement a statistical player database, starting with the 2011 baseball draft kit, which I've wanted to do at RotoCommunity but never had the chance, as I was the CEO, COO, Editor in Chief, and webmaster, and web developer all in one. I'll still do a lot of that at RotoExperts, but I'll have LOTS of help.
I'm excited, and you should be too! So head on over to the new RotoExperts, and enjoy the ride with us!
Sincerely,
Dave Gawron

SURVIVOR POOL PICKS - WEEK SIX
Posted by: ThePME
on Oct 27, 2010
LAST WEEK
- Straight Up - 8-6 (58-45 on season)
- Against Spread - 11-3 (59-41-3 on season)
- Over/Under - 5-9 (54-47-2 on season)
Taking a break from the long winded diatribes this week. I'm still too busy complimenting myself after a glorious 11-3 week.
Expect a split between the favorites and underdogs in Week 8 -- every home team is favored. They can't all be winners. Life doesn't work like that.

Below, we take a look at players that you usually start that you may want to sit this week and vice versa. We avoid mentioning the obvious. If a player you'd usually start is facing the Browns, of course you still start him. We attempt to focus on the players you might have questions about. See our WEEKLY RANKINGS for the full picture.

We base our weekly rankings on the strength of opposing defenses overall, individual match-ups, and expected game situations (shoot-out vs. field-goal battle vs. blowout). They're based on the WCOFF/NFFC PPR scoring systems. Hopefully, for the most part, just looking at the rankings helps you figure out who to sit or start. We set the projections early in the week and then comb through them and make any necessary edits on Friday.
