2024 Fantasy Football Almanac Now Available on Amazon.com
I’m pleased to announce the 2024 Fantasy Football Almanac and Draft Guide is now available on Amazon.com! In my quest to write the perfect fantasy football magazine, the book has once again expanded and you now have two options on how to purchase (and a third on the way).
Option 1: The 2024 Fantasy Football Almanac You Know (and hopefully love) is published, sold and distributed by Amazon. You can access that book here on Amazon here. This is the 7th year of the Almanac and I’m proud to say it’s been Amazon’s top selling book for 5 or 6 of those years thanks to you. Thank you so much. This book will continue to be supported and your updates will always be free on the book.
Option 2: I’ll be brutally honest here. Between printing, shipping, profit share and ad costs, Amazon takes about 85-90% of the money generated by the book. They do pay more than a standard publishing house so I’m not complaining. But the reality is that if I want to grow this service in the way that I want to, I need to generate revenue outside of Amazon. You’ll notice that I’ll be unveiling a new store this year with other services including an ebook version of the Almanac. This will help me sell more copies to international audiences. This is not available yet, but I should have at least a first version of the store up and running by the end of June.
Option 3: The 2024 Fantasy Football Almanac GOLD Edition this includes everything inside the Almanac with four differences. First, I moved the “Points Above Replacement” section to this book. A lot of Almanac readers are new to fantasy football and PAR was confusing more people than helping. I thought it had a better place in the Gold Edition, which is designed for more hardcore players. Don’t worry, if you buy the less expensive standard edition, I’ll still give you PAR for free in the updates. I’m grateful you’re reading the book and want to keep providing you that service.
The second difference is that I’ve expanded the team writeups to include the workshare analysis. I helped publish a sister companion book last year, but I’ve just moved all of that workshare stuff (which drives PAR) into the book. For example, if you wanted to know how often Sean McVay targets Puka Nacua and/or Cooper Kupp when both are in the lineup together, I have you covered. It also does things like project the QBs with highest percentage of rushing yardage and rushing TDs on their team. Or running backs with the highest percentage of receptions on their team. There are people that publish these type of stats, but they don’t get as granular into the use when teams are at full strength. It’s pretty cool and I’m excited about it.
The third difference is that I included a short writeup for each team that includes “What-If” injury analysis. For example, if you want to know how an injury to Christian McCaffrey would impact the 49ers offensive workshare distribution, I have thoughts. Or if you wanted to know which running back to target in waivers if Breece Hall were to be injured, I have some thoughts in there. That way, you have a record of it when a star player eventually gets injured.
Lastly, I create a short paragraph on who I’m watching. Each team discusses rookies and how I think they’ll develop, when they’ll start to play games, if I think they have a path to get onto the field and see meaningful snaps, etc. This section also includes thoughts on who I’m watching this year. If I think there’s an underreported position battle, or a potential change in offensive focus pending some training camp development, I’m letting you know.
This Gold Edition is $24.97 USD and can be purchased on Amazon (print only, no ebook). Fantasy Football Almanac Gold can be purchased here.
NOTE: If you’re anything like me, when you saw “$24.97” as the price, you may think I’m being greedy. I just want you to know that wasn’t my intent. I wanted to have the standard book priced at $14.97 as usual and then this version priced at $19.97, but Amazon print costs just made that impossible. This is another reason I want to move more commerce to my website. I doubt I’ll ever by the cheapest publication, but I really want what I do to provide you with the most value. I’ll try to figure out a way to bring that cost down in future years.
Again, thank you so much for supporting the Almanac. Many readers have been with me since my first publication in 2018 and it’s been a pleasure to create content for you through the years.

I won my league last year, and came in second the two years prior, due to your fantasy advice. I’ll happily (and just did) order the Gold Edition .
I won a league last year with Sean’s analytics, ill gladly pay whatever. 25$ in todays world is nothing for all the work you have done, thank you again.
Thanks! I do have to publish a bit earlier in the preseason but we make up for the early publish in the updates (at least I hope so). Glad you enjoyed!

I can’t believe it, I read everything you wrote, I always speed read, because I just want to know the importance things, my coworker introduce me to your book last year, I thought maybe it was too early to buy a Fantasy Football book, I will go over to Amazon and check it out.
I purchased the magazine last year for the first time. It was a very enjoyable read and it did noticeably improve my FF results.
Glad to hear it!
Well I just purchased your regular copy but now I’ve got to go look for the gold edition. I’ve been buying your magazine for the last three years and it’s helped me in all my leagues. Thanks for doing all the work and giving us all the stats.
Hi Kurt, don’t worry about buying the gold in addition to the standard. I can figure out how to get you the extra content this year. At a minimum, you can return the other book and swap them out. I’d do it for you, but I don’t control that part. Also, thank you very much!!!
Just ordered your gold edition dude keep it coming love the content!
Thanks Sam!!
Good Morning Sean,
Thanks for the heads up on your latest release, I just purchased the Gold Standard for Fantasy Football info, can’t wait to get it Friday!!
Good Luck in the new season.
I hope all is well with You and your family, as well as the rest of your work family.
All the Best,
TK
Hi Sean… I just placed my order for the Gold Edition! I searched my Amazon order history and I’ve been buying the Almanac since 2018! Good stuff! Go Lions!!!
Tom
Lions are looking good. Not sold on the defense but love that offense. Good luck this season!
Ryan, thanks for your candidness and transparency. I find your annual Almanac a “breath of fresh air” compared to the rest. It’s one of a select few resources I look forward to each season. I think it is always a fun and insightful read. The information and analysis you provide really adds to my excitement for the upcoming season. Keep doing what you do. The cost will justify itself. Thank You!
Thanks for the kind words and I hope you enjoy the gold version! I think you will. It was fun to dig into the work share a bit more.
I’m sure of it….ordered and arriving Friday just in time to kick off the weekend! 🙂
Thanks Sean, been looking and waiting for your book, can’t wait to have it in my hands. Have a good season.
My third year in a row ordering Sean’s FF Preview. Good stuff!
I bought the gold edition. Great content. The perspective is different than from typical analysts.
One note, some of the workshare tables are with the wrong teams.
Great stuff, Sean! First-time purchaser here, and I look forward to future seasons… for the 2025 edition, would love to see ratings/analysis of offensive lines, too, just a suggestion to add to a terrific product.
Sean, I love the magazine as a first-time purchaser! Ordered it from Amazon, would love to know for the future if you put it out on newsstands at Wal-Mart, grocery stores, etc.
Will you consider, for 2025, adding offensive line ratings — such as losses/additions, OL coaches, etc.
Keep up the great work!
Hi Sean, Can I have a digital edition from other place instead of Amazon? I’m having issues to buy it directly from Amazon because I’m not located in USA
Please help
