BunnysBastatrds 1,933 Posted August 21, 2009 Link Before the first weekend of the NFL season, the fantasy owner selects the player he wishes to insure — let's say it's his top pick, Peyton Manning of Indianapolis. He then enters his league entry fee ($250 for this scenario, though FSI offers claims up to $1,000), transaction fees ($0), and money spent on additional expenses, like magazines and online subscriptions ($15). FSI then determines the cost of the policy based on those numbers, with every top-50 player — from the chronically-injured Steven Jackson of the St. Louis Rams to the Atlanta Falcons' relatively sturdy Michael Turner. In this case, insuring Mr. Manning for a 15-game fantasy season would cost $29.87. For just under $30, an owner who loses Mr. Manning to injury for 10 of his 15 fantasy games would recoup the entire $265 he spent on his fantasy team from FSI. And he could still replace the star quarterback with a waiver-wire pickup and salvage the season anyway. via Would you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bryce_paradyce 0 Posted August 23, 2009 Thinking of using this as a bet not a hedge against my own team. I tend to avoid injury prone players. What about laying down $105 to win $1,000 on K Warner? Who else would you think is most likely to go down for the season? SJax, Portis or B Jacobs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
