Sorry for the corny title, but getting my kid ready for our first real Halloween together has me completely brain washed. To appease the guys that are thinking, “why is this dude talking about kids and Halloween on a fantasy football website?” I decided to use a photo that’s a little more football related. Fair trade, right?

A popular cut of our consensus rankings is a version where you take the Top 5 position experts and use their consensus rankings for each respective position. We’re working on ways to make this popular customization faster to do on your own, but I thought I’d go ahead and run the cheat sheet for you. Consider it my Halloween treat. So, if you’re a believer of “position specialists” take a look at these rankings.
