SB Nation’s War Room gives some great advice: “Never bet against Adrian Peterson.” Also, “BBQ and Andy Reid are a match made in heaven.” I can’t say I agree with the Doug Martin hate. I’m a full believer in that department, and I love him even more when you look at the schedule he faces…… Continue reading SB Nation’s Fantasy Draft Guide 2013 advises “Never bet against Adrian Peterson”

Gronking for Rob Gronkowski Stand-ins: Replacing Gronk for the Playoffs
http://youtu.be/t0jne_g5IO4 Let’s get this straight — there is no replacing Rob Gronkowski. Contrary to popular offseason belief, he has been on pace to reproduce his miraculous 2011 season, if not exceed it.

Week 9 Pickups coming up Cecil Shorts

Believe it or not: Austin Collie, Peyton Hillis, Lance Moore and More Top Scores from Week 3

There’s nothing glamorous about pickups at this point in the season.

Braylon Edwards traded to Jets [Fantasy Impact]
Coming off the heels of allegations that he assaulted a friend of LeBron James and a Week 4 game in which Braylon Edwards caught absolutely nothing, it’s surprising to see him be swept away to the New York Jets in a trade this morning. But for the Jets, this move makes sense. They needed a…… Continue reading Braylon Edwards traded to Jets [Fantasy Impact]

Random ESPN Mock Draft: Results May Vary
Last week, in the process of participating in a mock draft with several other fantasy football writers from the Interwebs, I got stuck inside of a random ESPN draft outside of the one we were using for the official mock draft.
