Fantasy Football Rankings and Strategy - A Different Take
2007-08-26 18:06:00
Every year I try to prepare a new fantasy football draft strategy that is tailored for the unique circumstances that come with each new season. But I always try to keep a few fundamental rules at the forefront of my draft strategy. One of those rules is to remember that fantasy games are won by winning your weekly matchup with another opponent.......not by scoring the most points in a season. This is an important distinction to make, and one that should affect your draft strategy. It is also an essential point that many fantasy football experts fail to recognize or emphasize. I've seen many teams outscore the league by dozens of points but still fail to place in the top 3.That being said, I try to design my fantasy football team in such a way that gives me an advantage over my opponents at every position on my team. I look at my entire fantasy lineup across the board and try to put together a team that has a top 5 player at every position.........even TE, kicker and defense. I know

Looking for the best fantasy football defense to draft for you team? Check out this free fantasy football defense report and adjust your draft sheet accordingly.Rank Team1 Ravens - Lost Adalius Thomas, but they are still the best in the NFL.2 Bears - May lean more towards 2-deep zone, which could affect turnovers.3 Patriots - The Raven's loss is the Patriot's gain......Thomas should improve the D.4 Chargers - Led league in sacks last year.....but lost a lot of coaching.5 Jaguars - Should be healthier and stingier this year.6 Broncos - Addition of Dre Bly should help.7 Dolphins - Will Joey Porter make a difference........the verdict is out.8 Vikings - Great at stopping the run.9 Eagles - If Kearse returns to health, this D will be solid.10 Panthers - A new DB's coach could improve the Panthers secondary.

Move Andre Johnson up Your Fantasy Football Draft Board
2007-08-26 06:58:00
Andre Johnson quietly racked up over a 100 receptions last year for the Houston Texans with David Carr at QB. This year, the Texans upgraded their QB position with Matt Schaub, former backup to Michael Vick. Schaub should provide more consistency than Carr at the QB position, which should translate into a huge fantasy football season for WR Andre Johnson.Schaub has looked sharp in the preasons completing 12 of 16 passes for 109 yards against the Dallas Cowboys in his 3rd preseason game.

Brandon Jacobs - A Third Round Steal?
2007-08-25 17:19:00
Brandon Jacobs is scheduled to receive 20 to 25 carries a game this year for the New York Giants. At 265 pounds and 4.4 speed, Jacobs has the talent to become an elite fantasy football stud running back this year. The Giants have always produced good rushing yardage with Tiki Barber carrying the ball. If the O-line continues to open holes, Jacobs could produce Larry Johnson type numbers with his skill set.Jacobs is a legitimate second round pick in your fantasy football draft. If you see him hanging there in the third, consider him a steal.

Travis Henry Expected to Be Healthy Week 1
2007-08-25 07:31:00
Those of you itching to draft Travis Henry and watch what he does with the Denver O-line can breath a sigh of relief. Henry sprained a knee in last week in a preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys, but expected to be ready in time to start in your fantasy football lineup in week 1.Henry has been steadily moving up many fantasy draft boards and is a legitimate late 1st round pick at running back. Denver has not had a one-back system for years and has always been frustrating for fantasy owners. Although the O-line is dominant, Denver has been known to switch running backs from week to week.Coach Mike Shanahan has been hinting that Travis Henry will receive the majority of carries at RB this year. If that is true, then look for Henry to improve greatly upon the solid fantasy football season he had last year for the Titans.

FF Sleeper - Wes Welker
2007-08-24 15:38:00
New England Patriots WR Wes Welker has a great opportunity to accomplish what Brandon Stokely did for the Indianapolis Colts 2 years ago as a WR3............1000 yards receiving. The speedy Welker had a great breakout season last year with the Dolphins catching 67 footballs for 687 yards and a touchdown.This year he will have the field wide open with Randy Moss and Donte Stallworth covering the ends. Look for Welker to open up frequently in the middle. Welker may not be an every week fantasy football starter, but he is a great player to have on the bench and may prove to be a consistent weekly threat with Tom Brady throwing to him.

FF Today Risky Running Backs
2007-08-24 11:13:00
FF Today has updated a great running back rankings page that denotes RB's who pose a potential fantasy football risk. The list is as follows:Larry JohnsonClinton PortisWarrick DunnKevin JonesI think it is safe to assume that LJ will eventually be removed from this list because he has signed a long term deal with the KC Chiefs had has reported to camp.I agree that Portis, Dunn, and Jones are risks due to injuries. This also makes their backups potentially very valuable..........although still risky.Portis is expected to share more carries this year with Ladell Betts and Warrick Dunn will continue to lose ground to the explosive Jerious Norwood.Kevin Jones is sharing a backfield with ex-Broncos speedster Tatum Bell and the big back T.J. Duckett.If I were to bet on a backup with the highest upside, I would look at Falcons RB Jerious Norwood.....although the absence of Michael Vick may have a huge overall effect on the Falcons offense.Ladell Betts had a good season last year and is probab

Preseason Injury Report: Donald Driver Injures Foot
2007-08-24 06:44:00
Last nights preseason games included one potentially significant injury, as the Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver was carted off the field before half time with a foot injury. There is no word yet on the severity of the injury.Driver is coming off a great year last year with 92 catches for 1,295 yards and 8 touchdowns. This injury warrants some caution before drafting him high until more is known about the injury.

Mock Fantasy Draft Results - 5 Thoughts
2007-08-23 20:14:00
I know I've been writing a lot about mock draft fantasy results, but this time of the season its a great way to practice and prepare yourself for your upcoming live draft. Here are a few thoughts based upon some of the mock fantasy draft results that I have seen.Great Wide Receivers are still available in the third round.Running Backs once again seem to be dominating the first 20 picks.If you want an elite quarterback, don't wait until the 5th round.....its too risky.Randy Moss will most likely be a great 5th round value pick.........possibly worth the risk.Peyton Manning may be available in the second round.....a super value.

Top Tier Fantasy Football WR
2007-08-23 11:59:00
This year the top tier of fantasy football receivers looks a bit more crowded. In years past you could isolate it to 2 or 3 sure things wide receivers. This year, some are arguing for 5 or 6 top tier fantasy wide receivers.Here are the candidates:Steve Smith, Carolina PanthersMarvin Harrison, Indianapolis ColtsTorry Holt, St. Louis RamsChad Johnson, Cincinnati BengalsTerrell Owens, Dallas CowboysReggie Wayne, Indianapolis ColtsThe one thing this group has in common is that they have consistently produced great statistics every year for multiple years. And yes, Reggie Wayne meets that criteria even though he is a #2 receiver for the Colts.In the early rounds of your fantasy football draft, it is always better to go with a sure thing. Save the risk taking for the later rounds. Drafting a top tier wide receiver in the first or second rounds gives you a solid advantage at that position and great fantasy scoring that you can rely on all year long.

Is Daunte Culpepper a Good Fantasy Football Draft Pick?
2007-08-22 21:38:00
With the Oakland Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell still unsigned, it is pretty certain that Daunte Culpepper will be the starting quarterback this year...probably for most of the season. We all know that Culpepper was once rated right next to Peyton Manning for fantasy football starting quarterbacks. But last year he struggled with the Miami Dolphins, partly due to a lack of mobility. Culpepper clearly had not fully recovered from his knee injury.This year marks another fresh start for Culpepper. However, it most likely won't result in better statistics for Culpepper. Oakland's offensive line is a mess, and they lost talent when Randy Moss was traded to the New England Patriots. Keep Culpepper in mind as a deep sleeper, but don't expect much out of him in Oakland. The team is simply not good enough to perform.

Chris Brown to Start at RB for the Tennessee Titans?
2007-08-22 12:15:00
Rotoworld is reporting that Chris Brown is likely to be named the starting running back for the Tennessee Titans .Chris Brown had respectable fantasy football numbers a couple of years ago for the Titans. If he does start, he could be a great player to have deep on your bench. However, those of you planning on drafting LenDale White may want to show some caution.If Chris Brown is still around in the late rounds of your fantasy football draft, don't feel bad taking a chance on him.

5 Keys to Winning Your Fantasy Football League
2007-08-21 22:52:00
What is the key to winning your fantasy football league? Here are 5 keys that have served me well through the years.Luck - There is no way around this one. You can be the most well-researched, savvy, hard-working fantasy football player in the world.........but if your first 2 picks go down for the season in week 1, you probably won't win your fantasy football league.Know your players - If you don't know who is out there, you'll have no chance of filling your team with the best possible fantasy football players. Read as many articles as you can and scan the player rankings on Yahoo. Get to know a players stats.Know your key players backups - Handcuffing your most important players with their backups on your bench can literally save your fantasy football season. I learned this a few years back when I kept Larry Johnson on my bench all season to go with a 1st round pick of Priest Holmes. LJ filled right in and kept me going.Be quick on the Waiver Wire - Hesitating to pick up a good pl

LJ Signs - Fantasy Football Players Sigh in Relief
2007-08-21 16:03:00
Larry Johnson, super-stud running back for the Kansas City Chiefs, signed a 5 year extension for 45 million dollars according to Espn fantasy football. This ends a 25-day holdout and puts one of fantasy's greatest scorers back on the field. For those of you with high picks who were hesitant to draft Larry Johnson........draft away. Expect at least 1,500 yards if LJ has a down year.

Should you draft Carson Palmer in the 2nd round?
2007-08-21 11:27:00
After Peyton Manning, the QB position in fantasy football becomes slightly less clear. It looks like Carson Palmer is poised to take over the #2 spot this year now that he has had plenty of time to recover from a knee injury.ESPN fantasy football projects Palmer at around 4000 yards and 30 touchdowns.These are great numbers, but when you can get a Drew Brees, Tom Brady, Donovan McNabb, or Marc Bulger a round or 2 later, is Palmer worthy of a projected round 2 choice.I would argue that you are better off waiting on QB until the 4th round. Spend your 2nd and 3rd round choices on a more rare commodity like a #2 RB or a #1 WR. You'll get more value out of your picks without loosing much at the QB spot. Remember, its a fantasy football team. You need all of your players to do well.


Fantasy Football Draft Strategy By Position - 1st Pick
2007-08-21 06:51:00
Each position in a fantasy football draft requires a tailored strategy in order to maximize the most value out of the draft position. This series will take a look at each pick in the draft and suggest a pick strategy to follow. First up......the first pick. Here is a suggested board.Running BackWide ReceiverRunning BackQuarterbackTight EndWide ReceiverRunning BackRunning BackWide ReceiverWide ReceiverObviously a running back is going to be the first pick in the draft (LaDainian Tomlinson) nearly every year. The second pick in this position can be used on an elite WR like a Torry Holt or possibly a Marvin Harrison. By waiting until the 3rd round to pick your second RB, you get a receiver upgrade without losing much talent at that second RB position. You can still get an elite quarterback in the 4th round like a Mark Bulger or Drew Brees and then get an early jump on a consistent tight end like Cooley. Most of the mid-round WR's have very similar stats so you can get a respectable guy i

Will Cadillac Williams Return to Rookie Form?
2007-08-21 06:32:00
Ken Daube at ESPN fantasy football is predicting that Cadillac Williams has a good chance of returning to his rookie form. Here are his predictions:300 carries, 1,140 yards rushing, six touchdowns, 25 catches and 145 yards receivingHe argues that RB's usually see a decline in yards per carry in their second year, and then bounce back in their third year. He also thinks that Jeff Garcia will significantly improve the QB play for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.I think that Daube makes a solid case, however, I'm not usually one to take fantasy football risks by a players potential to improve. I wouldn't take Cadillac before the 5th round, but most likely he'll be gone by then. I would rather spend my hard earned early round picks on proven players and then take chances later in the draft.Espn currently has Carnell Williams ranked as the 29th overall pick in the fantasy football draft and the 21st RB.

Top 5 Fantasy Football 2 Running Back Systems

Two-back systems have become more of the norm than the exception in the NFL. Some of these systems are so successful that you can't go wrong with either player. Others are not so lucrative. Here are the top 5 two running back systems in the NFL.Reggie Bush and Deuce McAllisterFred Taylor and Maurice Jones-DrewClinton Portis and Ladell BettsJulius Jones and Marion BarberDeShaun Foster and DeAngelo WilliamsA dark horse for 2 back system of the year is Warrick Dunn and Jerious Norwood. It remains to be seen how much time will be split between these two, but I would predict that both players see plenty of carries.

Their 12 team draft stayed pretty close to the popular draft boards except for a few exceptions.Jones-Drew went #9 overall.....a bit early I think.Rudi Johnson dropped to the 16th overall pick....a steal.Peyton Manning lasted to the end of the second round.Reggie Wayne was the 4th overall WR taken.Brandon Jacobs lasted until round 3.Brees, Bulger, and Brady lasted until round 5.According to Rotoworld, QB's typically go later in industry league drafts and I would agree. Be careful waiting until round 5 for a QB in your draft.

Joseph Addai Moving up the RB Rankings
2007-08-29 06:30:00
In the draft boards that I watch, Joseph Addai has been moving steadily up the charts. I saw him as low as 6th earlier in the preseason. Now he seems to be a consistent #4 pick in the fantasy draft behind either Larry Johnson or Frank Gore.I think its difficult to go wrong with any of these guys, but Addai will have lots of scoring opportunities in the Colts offense. He clearly plays on the better teams than LF and FG, and he is so far young and injury free.I think that Joseph Addai is now a legitimate #3 pick in the draft and a safe choice at that spot in the first round.

Overvalued and Undervalued FFL RB's
2007-08-28 19:35:00
TJ Thomas of FFtoday published an article this week discussing overvalued and undervalued running backs. They are as follows:Overvalued :Larry JohnsonMaurice Jones-DrewMarshawn LynchUndervaluedTravis HenryCarnell "Cadillac" WilliamsDeuce McAllisterI agree with most of these but disagree with a couple. I understand that the Chiefs offensive line is in a state of transision, but I disagree that having Damon Huard at QB will have a huge effect on the running game. Huard led the Chiefs through the first 10 weeks of the season last year before Trent Green returned and did pretty well. Look for a slight decline from LJ, but nothing to panic about.ESPN's Matthew Berry lists Maurice Jones-Drew as one of the players he loves and says he will have a monster year. I tend to lean more toward's Berry's analysis than Thomas....although I do get skeptical when the hype gets too high on a player. However, Jones-Drew is a huge talent and will have some huge fantasy football games this year.Finally, T


Westbrook is Good...But How Many Games is he Good For?
2007-08-28 15:28:00
Every year I am tempted to draft the electric RB/WR Brian Westbrook, but I am always scared away by his frequent trips to the injury list. Last year, Westbrook played an impressive 15 games and put up great numbers (1217 rush yards, 77 receptions, 11 TDs).But will he be able to do it for another year? He has had some knee swelling and missed some practice in the preseason, but all signs point to a relatively healthy Westbrook for the season opener.I've always thought of Westbrook as a big gamble pick, and I don't like to take gambles early in the draft. He's good enough to singlehandedly win games for you, but he can also ruin your season in an instant with an injury.Depending on your order in the draft, you may not even have to deal with the Westbrook dilemma. But if you do and you decide to pick Westbrook, then make sure to play it safe with your next pick. A team full of risky players could have an early exit in the fantasy football playoffs.
