Unless you’ve been living in a cave for the past few months, you’ve probably noticed that the NFL has had its share of high profile player movement during the offseason. Even though some guy named Tebow stole most of the headlines, there were 258 OTHER players that switched teams. That doesn’t even count another 191 guys that are still on the market as free agents.
Needless to say, that’s a lot of player movement, which no doubt has fantasy implications. Fortunately, we’ve crafted a handy 2012 NFL Team Changes Summary to help you keep track of the roster changes. In addition to showing old/new teams, the table also displays each player’s current Expert Consensus Rank (ECR™) as well as their ADP. The data is fully sortable as well so you can easily hone in on the most important team changes.
In just a few seconds, for instance, it’s simple to see where the high profile player movement has occurred. You can quickly find out that the biggest changes by position were the following:
