Pro Football Prospectus

Pro Football Prospectus

Pro Football Prospectus is a book series, with a new edition published each year. It reviews the previous NFL season and previews the upcoming season. Its brand of statistical analysis sets it apart from the annual magazines that cover the same territory, and it has become increasingly popular with fantasy football players.

The series is a spinoff of the popular Baseball Prospectus brand. The PFP series was created by Sean Lahman in 2002, and with his team of writers he produced the first three editions. Aaron Schatz and his Football Outsiders took over the series in 2005.
