These rankings reflect my own crazy formula, tweaked yearly, that calculates the offensive and defensive value of a player's card and assigns a number to it.  I like good steal ratings and good running ratings.  All BP ratings were at 1-10.  And, if I had any TREASURY monies this year, you probably wouldn't be seeing this list :-).
