Randy Moss returned to the Minnesota Vikings yesterday as the latest victim of the Patriot Way, the “get out while we can still get draft picks for you” way. After all, there is no “pay” in Patriot…err, wait, that doesn’t seem right. While there is no “I” in team, there are two in Belichick. Above all,…… Continue reading What Randy Moss trade to Minnesota means for fantasy owners, a collection of thoughts from around the Web

The Favre Effect: Brett Favre’s fantasy impact on Vikings
It’s easy to hate Brett Favre right now. In fact, it’s encouraged. Just as we were about to lock in Sage Rosenfels as the starting quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings, Favre decides to show up after the toils of training camp and sign a contract for, you know, whatever the Vikings could find in the…… Continue reading The Favre Effect: Brett Favre’s fantasy impact on Vikings
Fantasy Draft Day Pick or Pass: Top 36 Wide Receivers by ADP
Just as I broke down the running back average draft position with my “pick or pass” ranking style and noted which players might be worth skipping over in your draft rankings, I’m doing the same with wide receivers. Unlike running backs, many of the top receivers are worth a pick at their current draft stock,…… Continue reading Fantasy Draft Day Pick or Pass: Top 36 Wide Receivers by ADP
Brett Favre stays retired: What Good are Favre-less Vikings
Brett Favre isn’t going to save the Purple People Eaters and their Purple Jesus. So what? Favre wasn’t going to have a large fantasy impact on the team this season anyway. To prove my point, let’s take a look at all the purple players affected in this one. Adrian Peterson, RB Well, it would have…… Continue reading Brett Favre stays retired: What Good are Favre-less Vikings
A Six-pack of Quarterbacks to Remember in 2009 for Dynasty Teams, Keepers and Sleepers
As the NFL draft approaches, we all get a little antsy for football season to start. We start salivating over the latest and greatest rookie talent and their the flashy 40-yard dash times, and we forget about all the players from last year’s draft, the ones we talked up to our buddies every Saturday watching…… Continue reading A Six-pack of Quarterbacks to Remember in 2009 for Dynasty Teams, Keepers and Sleepers
Wild Card Weekend, Part 2: Sunday’s Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
After a day’s worth of exciting, close games, Sunday is all about defense. The Ravens, Dolphins, Eagles and Vikings have all made a habit of getting after the quarterback and stopping the run. In a playoff setting, I don’t think we see a lot of points today unless the Vikings or Eagles blow it open.…… Continue reading Wild Card Weekend, Part 2: Sunday’s Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
Week 14 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
You’re obviously starting your studs at this point. For many of you, it’s the playoffs. For others, it’s the last week before the playoffs (and you should hate that your championship game is in Week 17, where anything goes). This week, whether you are in the playoffs are about to be, is a critical one.…… Continue reading Week 14 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
Foolish Thoughts on Week 13: Tell me when it’s over
What was happened to the NFL this weekend? After the miserable Tennessee Titans clobbering of the Detroit Lions and the Dallas Cowboys butchering of the Seattle Seahawks, I thought at leas the Thursday Night Football matchup of the Philadelphia Eagles and the Arizona Cardinals might be mildly interesting. Of course, I thought it would be…… Continue reading Foolish Thoughts on Week 13: Tell me when it’s over

A lot of the action already went down on Thursday, but there are still a few sneaky starts and player concerns this week. Here are a few players that might help or hurt you in staking your claim for a playoff spot on this fine Sunday.

Week 11 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
I didn’t rush to publish the starts and sits before Thursday Night Football because I wasn’t planning on mentioning any of Jets or Patriots this week. It’s times like these that you should follow me on twitter for any news updates or sit/start recommendations you might need. Last night, I expected a defensive slugfest with…… Continue reading Week 11 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
