2012 Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Rankings (Pre-Draft top 20)

1. Calvin Johnson (DET): Megatron only faces 5 teams worthy of shutting him down in 2012 which means plenty of scoring opportunities. His chemistry with Matt Stafford has grown with each season and he was nearly a lock for 2 scores per game last year. This season, he will be facing the likes of the [...]

Maybe the most obvious statement made this week…trade Brandon Marshall. It’s simple and to the point. You know if you own him, this isn’t the first time you thought of such an idea. After week one, you were probably regretting drafting or keeping him on a weekly basis. Personally speaking, I’ll confess I kept Brandon [...]

Trade Brandon Marshall Immediately

Week 16 Start/Sit Special Thursday Edition—Panthers/Steelers

In last week’s Thursday start/sit column, I complained about how these Thursday night games stink a majority of the time. Well, this matchup is even worse as we, the viewing public, are supposed to watch the wretched Carolina Panthers attempt to hang with the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are looking for a bounce-back win. There are [...]

Studs, Duds and Fantasy Football–Week 15

It’s Monday, we’re in the fantasy playoffs; time to review. Top Performer At one point Mike Vick had 1 fantasy point in the 2nd quarter and things didn’t look like they were going the get any better. In fact, I was in a bar with a concerned Vick owner who was losing his mind. Here [...]

Studs, Duds and Fantasy Football–Week 10

One more week of NFL action is in the books, and one more week of confusion continues. Steelers were the best team, then they get handled by the Patriots, the Bears were (and I think still are) inept, and then they handle the disappointing Vikings; as I’ve said in practically every intro to this weekly [...]

Start these Guys and Sit those Dudes: Week 6

Last week I had some of my best predictions yet. As Jay-Z states so eloquently, “Men lie, women lie, but numbers don’t.” Here are those numbers. I recommended Hakeem Nicks who had 25 fantasy points, Falcons defense that racked up 19, and I recommended Flacco who had a cool 15. Even Better were my sit [...]

What We Learned in Fantasy Football from Week 3

Wow, what an exciting week, and even more interesting slate of games if you had the guts to start Cleveland RB Peyton Hillis against the Ravens. There is a lot that we can learn after Week 3. We are 1/6 of the way through the season and we can start following trends that are developing. [...]
