Losman, JaMarcus Russell, Jon Gruden, Larry Fitzgerald, Matt Cassel, Matt Ryan, Michael Turner, Mike Holmgren, Mike Sherman, Percy Harvin, Steve Mariucci

Chris Henry Sustains "Life Threatening" Injuries Henry has reportedly sustained injuries to his head and is in critical condition. Henry apparently was involved in a domestic dispute and jumped into a moving pick-up truck, and then somehow fell out of the back of the truck. There is no clear report on his ... Continue Reading

NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 7th) Braylon Edwards a Jet, Michael Crabtree a 49er and more

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Wednesday, October 7th 2009. Under Fantasy Football, NFL Tags: Braylon Edwards, Brian Westbrook, Cleveland Browns, Donovan McNabb, Dwayne Bowe, Eli Manning, Jamal Lewis, Jerome Harrison, Kansas City Chiefs, Michael Crabtree, New York Giants, New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, Rashard Mendenhall, San Francicsco 49ers, Willie Parker

Braylon Edwards Traded to New York Jets The Browns ridded of the under-performing Edwards for Chansi Stuckey and two draft picks. This immediately causes caution for Derek Anderson's value, but should make Mohamed Massaquoi's value soar. Edwards, on the other hand, should develop into a fine down-field weapon for Mark Sanchez, but ... Continue Reading

NFL Fantasy Game-Day Decision: Kevin Smith Starting, Wes Welker is Active, and more

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Sunday, October 4th 2009. Under Fantasy Football, NFL Tags: Bob Sanders, Chicago Bears, Clinton Portis, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions, Dwayne Bowe, Dwight Freeney, Indianapolis Colts, Julian Edelman, Julius Jones, Kansas City Chiefs, Kevin Smith, Ladell Betts, Marion Barber, New England Patriots, New York Giants, Seattle Seahawks, Seneca Wallace, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tashard Choice, Washington Redskins, Wes Welker

(Barber should see less action than Tashard Choice.) Dwight Freeney Back For Colts, Bob Sanders Still Out This could mean that Julius Jones could still have a great fantasy day without Sanders around, but Freeney's presence bot makes Seneca Wallace a shaky bye week fill-in, and also hurts Seattle's overall pass offense. Indy ... Continue Reading

NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 3rd) James Davis Done For Season, Willie Parker Out For Sunday, and more

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Saturday, October 3rd 2009. Under Fantasy Football, Featured, NFL Tags: Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Derrick Mason, Dwayne Bowe, Felix Jones, Jamal Lewis, James Davis, Jerome Harrison, Julian Edelman, Kansas City Chiefs, Marion Barber, Mewelde Moore, New England Patriots, Pittsburgh Steelers, Randy Moss, Rashard Mendenhall, Tashard Choice, Wes Welker, Willie Parker

Cleveland's James Davis Out For Season This is big, unexpected news, as the rookie looked very sharp in pre-season, and was on the verge of getting more carries. With Davis gone, however, Jerome Harrison (above) will step-in as the full-time starter until Jamal Lewis is fully healthy, and Lewis's age and ineffectiveness ... Continue Reading

NFL Quick Hits (October 1): Turf toe troubles Steelers’ Parker, Chargers’ Tomlinson practices, Seahawks’ Hasselbeck likely out for Week 4, and more

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Thursday, October 1st 2009. Under NFL Tags: Carnell Williams, Cleveland Browns, Derrick Ward, Detroit Lions, Dwayne Bowe, Jamal Lewis, Jerome Harrison, Julian Edelman, Kansas City Chiefs, Kevin Smith, LaDainian Tomlinson, Matt Hasselbeck, Maurice Morris, New England Patriots, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Diego Chargers, Seattle Seahawks, Seneca Wallace, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Wes Welker, Willie Parker

Willie Parker "Iffy" With Turf Toe One decent game, and everyone gets up in a whirl over Parker's foot. While he "seems" to be back on track, this injury could either keep him out of week four, or also slow him down. If he plays, he's sure to split carries with both ... Continue Reading

NFL Quick Hits (September 29): Colts’ Freeney out 2-3 weeks, knee to sideline Cowboys RB Jones, San Fran’s Gore out for three weeks, and more

Dwight Freeney Out 2-3 Weeks For Colts Freeney hurt his quad in Sunday night's win over the Cardinals, and will almost surely miss the next two games, but should make it back for week seven after Indianpolis's bye. This puts added pressure on Robert Mathis, as the Colts had already been dealing ... Continue Reading

NFL Week 3 Fantasy Game-Day Decisions

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Sunday, September 27th 2009. Under Fantasy Football, NFL Tags: Brian Westbrook, Clinton Portis, Dwayne Bowe, lesean mccoy, New England Patriots, Randy Moss, Wes Welker

Randy Moss a Go, Wes Welker a No Just like last week, be sure to get Welker out of your line-up immediately and sub-in either Julian Edelman or another decent option. Jonny Knox or Mario Manningham, or even Kevin Walter could be good plays in place of Welker, as well. Brian Westbrook Out ... Continue Reading

NFL Quick Hits (September 26): LT Out, Derrick Ward to Start, and more

Derrick Ward to Start Over Carnell Wiliams This is awesome news for anyone who drafted Ward and was holding out hope that he'd start to get more carries. Congratulations, your wish has been granted. Williams, owners, yours has not. As expected, Cadillac's knee is acting up again, which doesn't bode well for ... Continue Reading

Fantasy Football: Third-Year Wide Receivers

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Tuesday, July 28th 2009. Under Fantasy Football, NFL Tags: Anthony Gonzalez, Calvin Johnson, Chansi Stuckey, Dwayne Bowe, Dwayne Jarrett, James Jones, Jason Hill, Johnnie Lee Higgins, Laurent Robinson, Mike Walker, Robert Meachem, Sidney Rice, Steve Breaston, steve smith, Ted Ginn

Everyone knows the old cliche' about wide receivers. They don't always make an immediate impact as rookies, and despite having natural talent, usually take a while to carve a niche with their team. About three years, to be exact. Not everyone can be Randy Moss and bust out 17 touchdowns in their ... Continue Reading

Houshmandzadeh, Tampa Bay Buccaners, Ted Ginn, Torry Holt, Vincent Jackson, Washington Redskins, Wes Welker

In several mock drafts, Larry Fitzgerald, Randy Moss, and Andre Johnson have taken turns being the first receiver off the board, and all three have found themselves drafted in the first round on at least a few occasions. But those are easy calls. It's difficult to assess talent and environment, and after ... Continue Reading
