What I like to do every now and then is show how consistent or inconsistent players really are. As we all know, fantasy football is primarily a head to head matchup game and thus if your team isn't producing consistently high point totals, you are not going to win. Thus, digging deeper behind the scenes to uncover which players may not have the highest point totals at the end of the year but do post a good baseline of points every week can really help you out.
Next up are the wide receivers. We know that point per reception leagues are all of the rage these days and make up over half of all fantasy league formats. Thus, the most important factor in determining a receivers consistency is the amount of catches they have on a regular basis. If you build your WR corps around players that are always catching the football, you'll rack up a nice steady point total each and every week.
Here is a breakdown of how the top 40 WR's fared last season by the amount of receptions they hauled in each game.
