Kevin Roberts’ 2010 NFL Mock Draft 2.0
We already took a crack at the 2010 NFL Draft, but after seeing which players have officially declared, and how several prospects unfolded as the season went on, we knew we were way off. But it’s the dawning of a new NFL season, despite the playoffs still going on, as the other 28 teams not [...]
Can Romo and the red-hot Cowboys keep it up in the second half?
The way that they were playing in the first month-plus of the season, it looked like the Dallas Cowboys would be lucky to be a .500 team at season’s end, that Wade Phillips would be lucky to have his job come January 4, 2010, and that Tony Romo would have to endure criticisms about his [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 23rd) Jerricho Cotchery and Trent Edwards ruled out for Sunday, and more
(Leave Cotchery on your bench.) Jerricho Cotchery Ruled Out For Sunday Despite reports yesterday that it was looking good for Cotchery to play this week, he will miss yet another week due to a bad hamstring. The Jets just don’t want to chance it. Cotchery probably wouldn’t have been much of a factor against a [...]
Week Six Fantasy Risers: Wide Receivers
(Edwards should be owned in all leagues.) Week five was a huge week for receivers, as several formerly back-up receivers got a shot at major action and never looked back. After we saw guys like Mike Sims-Walker and Steve Smith step-up in huge ways last week, it was nice to see more young receivers step [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 13th) Miles Austin’s role to increase, Bulger starting again for Rams, and more
Dallas Says Miles Austin’s Role Will Increase I sure hope so. Austin nearly topped Roy Williams’ numbers for the season with 10 catches for 250 yards and two touchdowns. It’s evident now that Austin is ready to start, which means someone’s role will be hacked into. Roy Williams should be healthy after the Cowboys’ week [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 10th) Eli Manning still questionable, Jerricho Cotchery not a lock for Monday Night, and more
(Cotchery’s hamstring could keep him out.) Eli Manning Participates in Saturday Practice This just means he would probably play if he absolutely had to. But since the rush attack is operating smoothly, the defense is competing at an elite level, and they’re facing the Oakland Raiders, there isn’t much sense in rushing Manning back. Still, [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 8th): Seattle’s Hasselbeck to start in Week 5, Pats’ Taylor to have ankle surgery, Lions’ Stafford likely out vs. Steelers, and more
(Can Carnell finally fight off Derrick Ward?) Matt Hasselbeck Likely to Start in Week Five Hasselbeck returned to full practice and didn’t have any major problems. He reportedly looked good and is expected to start against Jacksonville’s very beatable secondary. While this news is up-lifting, he’s still a major risk, considering he failed to make [...]
Don’t Kill the Messenger: Week 4 Start and Sit Review
(Coffee wasn’t loaded with fantasy caffeine, but he did the job.) After two straight weeks of tripping over my own suggestions, we finally saw some Start and Sit success in week four. If you check out the week four preview column, hopefully you took heed of some of the suggestions. After going 4-1 in the [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 5th) Braylon Edwards Accused of Hitting Man, Eli Manning and Matthew Stafford Hurt, and more
(Is Braylon Crumbling in his contract year?) Giants’ Eli Manning May Have Plantar Fascitis This is the injury that was originally reported on Sunday. While it’s not guaranteed to make Manning miss any time, taking him out for next week’s cakewalk match-up with Oakland would be a smart decision by the coaching staff. Considering the [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 4: In a slump? A little Coffee can help
Brett Favre and Mark Sanchez further established themselves as, at the very worst, fantasy roster candidates. While normally “sure-fire” performers like Clinton Portis and Thomas Jones bombed. And what was with Willie Parker finally playing well and scoring a touchdown the very week I tell you to sit him? I swear, that guy has it [...]
