Get your quarterback early. Wait…what? Didn’t I write an entire book on the late-round quarterback strategy? I did. But in my book, I also pointed out that you need to understand your scoring structure before you make any draft decisions. For instance, if your league favors quarterbacks with 6 points per touchdown pass, then you […]
The 32 Teams in 32 Days series is complete. And, in hindsight, I really hope the articles on each team aren’t in front of you on draft day. After all, when I wrote about the Lions on July 8th, I was much higher on a guy like Jahvid Best than I am now. But, looking […]
You know that feeling when you lose your wallet? You spend 5 or 10 minutes looking through your house, hoping it will show up in the most obscure places possible. And that sensation in your stomach – it’s nothing short of awful. You think the absolute worst. You have ideas in your head that don’t […]
If you’ve read my blog over this inaugural month, I hope you’ve noticed that I like looking at historical numbers. My book, The Late Round Quarterback, deciphers past numbers in order to provide a well-developed fantasy football strategy that can help both pre- and post-draft. It’s not all that fair to look at the previous […]
Eli Manning, like many other NFL quarterbacks, had his best statistical season last year. Finishing with nearly 5,000 yards, the two-time Super Bowl winning quarterback was able to make fantasy stars out of his top two receivers. One of those players was second-year undrafted receiver Victor Cruz, who came out of nowhere to finish 4th […]
Mike Brown finally gave in. He traded Carson Palmer to Oakland. 2011 marked the year that the Carson Palmer era began in Oakland. It wasn’t the prettiest quarterback performance we’d ever seen. But to be fair, he didn’t have OTAs, a training camp, or a pre-season. So should we really conclude his value by looking […]
Everyone wants to get Rodgers this season because his 2011 campaign was so spectacular. But we can’t look at Aaron Rodgers’ season last year and simply conclude that it was far and away the best we’d ever seen. Yes, he scored the most points ever from a fantasy quarterback, but that’s all relative. I’ve been […]
Each season, fantasy owners and experts like to make generalizations about players that make little logical sense. They’ll compare two completely separate instances in order to come up with ill-informed conclusions. They’ll say things like, “this quarterback is bad, and so this wide receiver can’t be good.” The same is happening this year. We’ve got […]
Mark Sanchez silently posted the 10th most fantasy points at the quarterback position last season. And then the Jets signed Tim Tebow. There’s not a lot of depth on offense for this year’s Jets team. They’ve got a new offensive coordinater in Tony Sparano, and it’s going to be interesting to see how he uses […]
The Browns will have a new look offense in 2012. It appears as though the Colt McCoy era is over. Well, I guess I shouldn’t call it an era – that makes it sound like it was long. Brandon Weeden is expected to be the starter in Cleveland this season. In an AFC North division […]
