Overrated and Underrated Players in Yahoo!

One great way to gain advantage in your Yahoo! league is to use the sometimes wacky Yahoo! rankings to your advantage, trading overrated players for underrated ones.  To identify overrated and underrated players, you can use Basketball Monster's rankings set to your specific league settings and compare them to the Yahoo! rankings.  Of course, that can be time consuming, which is why I have compiled a list of overrated and underrated players in standard eight-category leagues for your convenience.  (I used season averages.)  I'll update this periodically.
