Player ranking page with "category punting" toggle #30

This idea would probably be best as its own page.

Based on each player's rating, it would be useful to see who the best players are so far in the season based on average Z score across each category. I believe this is what Yahoo does internally with their "average rank" metric. However, when roster building, it is especially valuable to know a player's ranking when only accounting for certain categories.

For example, if I am building my team such that I am "punting" turnovers, then it would be great for me to see how each player ranks without the turnover category factoring into the Z-score. Maybe someone on waivers is ranked 150th on the season, but 40th when removing turnovers. Or maybe I am punting both turnovers AND FG...

I am imagining a simple 1 through 300 sorted list of each player and their corresponding mean Z score. Then, a toggle menu where I can choose to punt 0 or several categories and reload the list to reflect that toggle.
