Top Five NFL Unrestricted Free Agents: Offense
On Wednesday, I listed my top five NFL free agents on defense. The defensive crop of free agents are a bit younger (sans Darren Sharper) than the group of players available on offense. NFL Network analyst Mike Lombardi jokingly called this group “the senior tour.” However, there are some valuable young legs that teams might [...]
Could Thomas Jones Be the Next Big Name Running Back To Hit Free Agency?
After seeing huge names at the running back position like LaDainian Tomlinson and Brian Westbrook get released from their respective teams in the past few days, the next thought is geared towards who might be next. Thomas Jones, who will be 32, looks to be on his way out of New York, despite two back-to-back [...]
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 [...]
2010 NFL Divisional Round Predictions
We picked three of the four Wild Card games correctly, although our overall postseason predictions (found here) were slightly challenged with New York upsetting Cincinnati. However, we decided to stick with our gut and not stray from our winners this week. After all, hype is hype for a reason, and the Jets will fizzle out. [...]
Kevin Roberts’ Week 15 NFL Power Rankings
The story of the 2009 season continues to be about the two undefeated teams, and whether or not they will strive for perfection. There have been rumors that the Indianapolis Colts will begin to rest their starters in the next couple of weeks, which could hurt their chances for a 16-0 season. The New Orleans [...]
Don’t Kill the Messenger: Week 14 Fantasy Start/Sit Review
As it turned out last week, Pittsburgh Steelers offensive players were not a “full go”, as out Week 14 Start/Sit column suggested. The Cleveland Browns gave most of the Steelers offensive weapons fits, and a poor weather game made for ugly results in a 13-6 Cleveland victory. Which was more unlikely heading into that game; [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Dec. 9th): Steve Slaton to go on IR, Mark Sanchez and Matthew Stafford out for Week 14, and more
Steve Slaton Done For 2009 Slaton missed Week 13′s action against the Jacksonville Jaguars after experiencing numbness in his arms due to a neck injury, and after seeing specialists about the issues, has been advised to shut it down for 2009. This puts his future as the starter in doubt, and gives both Ryan Moats [...]
NFL Fantasy Start and Sit Week 14: Pittsburgh Steelers Are “All Go”
We’ve had two straight average-to-unsatisfactory weeks of our Start/Sit column, and based on our track record of solid calls and usual winning record in most weeks, quite frankly, we’re just getting annoyed. But the playoffs are quickly approaching, and now is not the time to feel sorry, give up, or cry. Read on for our [...]
Monday Night Fantasy Update: Jets vs. Dolphins
(Was last week a fluke for Sanchez and the Jets?) Monday Night Football brings the best out of most teams. Sadly, though, in recent history at least, it rarely does so for both teams competing on the same night. However, with one exceptional comeback win by the Jets back in the day of Vinny Testaverde, [...]
Fantasy Football Week 3 Review: Counting the Ways You Got Screwed
(Get yo popcorn ready?) More like get your suicide letter ready. While losing yet again in fantasy football may not actually drive you to end it all, the gut-wrenching feeling of watching your “top dogs” blow chunks certainly can bring the thought to mind. Terrell Owens was just one of the many stars who came [...]
