It’s been another ugly week. After there wasn’t much to do on the waiver wire in Week 1 and 2, I was disappointed that we really didn’t get any more talent bubbling up the top for Week 3. I wouldn’t bet an eyebrow on any of these guys. If you didn’t get Marlon Brown last…… Continue reading Week 3 Pickups: Eddie Royal takes the crown

Everybody’s got a Wes Welker
http://youtu.be/yioJTLumWlc He’s quick. He’s nimble. He’s the envy of every team in the NFL, which is why every team in the NFL has got to get their hands on one. Wes Welker is no longer just one NFL wide receiver recovering from a knee injury using Playboy-endorsed rehabbing techniques. No, he is more than one…… Continue reading Everybody’s got a Wes Welker
Foolish Thoughts: Eagles pigeon-holed, Titans Patrionized and Saints crush Giants
When things get back to normal, they also have to get weird. In the same week that Drew Brees blows apart the Giants like they read their defensive playbook to him as a bedtime story, Tom Brady returns to dominance in a frozen tundra that kept the Titans quarterbacks, both of them, for throwing for…… Continue reading Foolish Thoughts: Eagles pigeon-holed, Titans Patrionized and Saints crush Giants
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

For now, Brandon Marshall’s not set to miss games once the regular season begins, but Pro Football Talk’s Mike…… Continue reading Brandon Marshall suspended for rest of preseason
Foolish Thoughts: Broncos, Bills and Bears! Bowe, my!
Let’s be honest. You can’t believe anything you hear in the preseason. Head coaches sound more like head cheerleaders. Rookies will all become superstars. Offensive coordinators experiment with plays that could radically change their offense for the better, and trainers expect everyone back at full speed by the first week of the regular season. It…… Continue reading Foolish Thoughts: Broncos, Bills and Bears! Bowe, my!
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
Maybe that’s why Brandon Marshall wanted out of Denver
According to a recent AP report, the Denver Broncos are priming Eddie Royal to be one of the featured weapons of their offense this season. Josh McDaniels even hopes that Royal might one day be mentioned in the “same breath” as Wes Welker. With so much praise for his receiver counterpart, could hints of this…… Continue reading Maybe that’s why Brandon Marshall wanted out of Denver
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. After the first couple of picks, which I made as quick reactions since I…… Continue reading Random ESPN Mock Draft: Results May Vary
