I’m 0-3 in one league, and I can’t stand it. So I’ll be all over the wires this week. You stand to benefit from my helpful or misguided research. Obviously, we had an eventful weekend of football. Or whatever you call the sport the replacement refs are now calling for us. Unfortunately for us all,…… Continue reading Week 4 Pickups: The One With All the Vikings

Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups: Are you who we thought you were?
It was an unusual Week 1, but at least with surprises comes a list of potential pickups to improve our fantasy teams. Below I’ve listed some players you might consider claiming this week if they are not owned in your leagues. I’ve listed them in the order of preference, but I’ve also guesstimated what percentage…… Continue reading Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups: Are you who we thought you were?
Robert Turbin, Austin Collie, and More Players Who Should Be Owned in Week 1
http://youtu.be/t45ECPDWIRc I thought I’d let Cecil Lammey kick off this year’s waiver wire discussion with this video for Footballguys TV. To give you a little more to work with, here’s my list of players who should be on more rosters to start the season. Quarterbacks Jake Locker, QB, Titans — What’s not to like…… Continue reading Robert Turbin, Austin Collie, and More Players Who Should Be Owned in Week 1
My Much-Too-Late 2011 Fantasy Football Sleepers and Value Picks List
I’ve been a slacker this season when it comes to posting my sleepers and value picks. I tweeted about quite a few of them throughout the offseason and preseason, but if you weren’t following me there, you might have missed out. On the plus side, the majority of my true sleepers are low on the…… Continue reading My Much-Too-Late 2011 Fantasy Football Sleepers and Value Picks List
On the Waiver Wire: Brian Westbrook LIVES, Week 13 Pickups, and a Massive Collection of Advice to Get Your Team Right for the Fantasy Football Playoffs
I hate handcuffing. I always feel like handcuffs are a waste of a roster spot, and I’d rather have a starting running back from another team than carry a guy who doesn’t play just in case my starter goes down. The backups are rarely as good or as big a part of the offense as…… Continue reading On the Waiver Wire: Brian Westbrook LIVES, Week 13 Pickups, and a Massive Collection of Advice to Get Your Team Right for the Fantasy Football Playoffs
On the Waiver Wire for Week 8: Matthew Stafford, Ryan Fitzpatrick, and Jon Kitna are the quarterbacks you seek
The pain continues. We lost a lot of good men out there. If you were already struggling to replace Jermichael Finley (like me) or fill the hole left by Dallas Clark (like me), I hope that you weren’t also relying on Tony Romo (again…like me) who is now out for the rest of the fantasy…… Continue reading On the Waiver Wire for Week 8: Matthew Stafford, Ryan Fitzpatrick, and Jon Kitna are the quarterbacks you seek
Believe it or not: Austin Collie, Peyton Hillis, Lance Moore and More Top Scores from Week 3
Austin Collie, WR, Colts: 12 catches for 171 yards, 2 TDs Believe It: This was not the stat line Reggie Wayne owners wanted to see, but without Pierre Garcon, Peyton Manning locked onto Collie while Dallas Clark and Reggie Wayne got most of the attention from the Denver defense. I don’t expect Collie to get…… Continue reading Believe it or not: Austin Collie, Peyton Hillis, Lance Moore and More Top Scores from Week 3
Believe it or not: Arian Foster, Hakeem Nicks and More Top Scorers from Week 1
If you played against Arian Foster this week, you lost. This rule applies to Peyton Manning. But what should we expect in Week 2? Arian Foster: 231 yards, 3 TDs, 1 pass for 7 yards Believe It – Foster came up big in Week 1 for the owners who jumped on his sleeper bandwagon. This…… Continue reading Believe it or not: Arian Foster, Hakeem Nicks and More Top Scorers from Week 1
On the Wire: Week 7 Pickups, Drops and Names to Know by Now
In what was largely a return to form for the fantasy football community, several names you probably already know popped back on the scene. Some we’ve talked about before, some we’ve neglected to mention since the preseason. Regardless, if they’ve been dropped or otherwise abandoned to the free agent pool, these guys are worth a…… Continue reading On the Wire: Week 7 Pickups, Drops and Names to Know by Now
On the Wire: Week 6 Pickups, Sleepers and Bye Week Saviors
He did it. I can’t believe he did it. Braylon Edwards, of stone hands fame, caught almost everything that came his way in his debut with the Jets on Monday night. It’s possible to argue that he was robbed of a second touchdown on the night when a circus catch down the sideline got reviewed…… Continue reading On the Wire: Week 6 Pickups, Sleepers and Bye Week Saviors
