Ktulu, I think you'd have to have a table for each position, or groups of positions. What I mean is, I'd say that for some positions, range is critical and fielding % is not, where at others the opposite is true.

As for my ranking opinions, I don't know. I pretty much look at a player and think, does he have the minimum range and fielding % I want at that position? And I usually base those judgements off what is available in the league, so say if a league mainly has crappy 2B, well then my minimum will be lower. If the guy doen't fit that minimum, I then ask if I can get one that does but isn't too much of a downgrade offensively. So, the point is, it's not just those defensive ratings that you need to take into account, but their offensive stats, the supply, a number of things.

Same here. Range factors are garbage.
