NFL Week 3: Five Things to Watch For
The first two weeks of the NFL season have been nothing short of exciting and informative, both from a fantasy and “real-life” spectrum. We’ve seen a ton of close games, prime-time performances worthy of being shown under the lights, and enough stud fantasy production to make us feel “okay” about how we drafted before the [...]
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 the rest of [...]
Fantasy Risers: Julian Edelman
Eat your heart out, Wes Welker. With the Patriots usual slot-man unexpectedly inactive for Sunday’s match-up with the New York Jets, Tom Brady found himself confiding in a rookie receiver. And I mean really confiding. How’s sixteen targets, for ya? Welker could only salivate over all the possibilities from the sideline. You give Welker 16 [...]
NFL Week 1 Preview: Five Things To Watch For
You’re done picking the games, placing bets, analyzing players, and drafting your fantasy team. Or, at least you should be. But either way, the only thing keeping you from the start of the 2009 season is a long Wednesday and a droning Thursday. Because Thursday night, after seven, all of the planning, bar-talking, know-it-all conversation, [...]

Drew Brees (pictured) doesn’t even have to be on the list. But a better example there is not. [...]
Five possible destinations for Michael Vick
So the ankle bracelet is now off Michael Vick and teams will start training camp as soon as next week. That doesn’t make it easy for Vick to find a new team. Apparently, he has been staying in-shape despite an 18-month stay in prison and an additional two months under house arrest. Vick has also [...]

The Kansas City Chiefs have locked up quarterback Matt Cassel in a long-term deal today, according to the Kansas City Star. ESPN senior football writer John Clayton reported that Cassel agreed to a six-yeal deal worth $63 million, with $28 million guaranteed and will earn over $10 million a season.

Fantasy Football Tier Rankigs: Wide Receivers
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 the first tier [...]
Fantasy Football Preview: NFC Wide Receivers
One of the most difficult things to guess is a team’s starting receiving line-up, especially this early in the season. Rookies can gain huge strides due to injuries or poor performances from veterans, while lackluster efforts from the corps can cause the front office to panic and sign someone off the street, or even try [...]
