You hear about the sleeper lists, the bust lists, the handcuff lists and so on and so on, but really it always breaks down to this - who is going to give you the most value when your picking.  The bottom line is you need more fantasy points than your opponent and who has the […]

Clinton Portis/ Ladell Betts:  Portis has been a top 10 fantasy running back since he started in Denver.  Last year he was hurt is preseason which brought him out of the gates slowly, and then only played eight games before going down with a season ending injury.  Complete bust for every owner that drafted him, […]

I am not sure I remember a season with so many young quaterbacks looking to take over the reigns as QB1, or just as many in their second season proving they belong in fanatsy discussions, or bound for a sophmore slump.   This year that list includes - Vince Young, Jamarcus Russell, Brodie Croyle, Tavaris Jackson, Jay […]

The running back.  The most important position in fantasy football.  It gains importance not from the points that come from the position, though the backs are highly productive, but more based on the lack of available productive players at the position.  With many rosters starting at least two running backs, and some rosters have three or […]
