This mock draft was held in the summer of 2012, but if you want a NEWER version, then check out our 1-Man, 5-Round, 2014 Fantasy Football Mock Draft that we did this year. The year is 2014. The revolution of the cyborgs has been averted and human civilization can return to rebuilding the canopy over …
For the past five or six months, we’ve been looking at generally the same rankings for Fantasy Football running backs. While the NFL Draft and free agency changed a few things, we still had a very good idea of what we thought the veterans were going to produce in 2012. Training camps have begun though, …
Athletes always talk about the “pop” they hear when they tear an ACL. I’d imagine it’s like hearing, “You’re fired!” from Donald Trump on The Apprentice, or “Honey, we need to talk,” from your significant other. You get that feeling in your stomach when, just for a split second, you sincerely believe your life is …
Several players are making a lot of noise these days in Fantasy Baseball circles that were once afterthoughts not too long ago. They were brought over in baseball trade deadline deals that seemed to be one-sided (solid veteran for questionable youngster), but later on became one-sided the other way. Just like the recent deal with …
Fantasy Football. Those two words have almost become synonymous with NFL Sunday. From now until the NFL’s opening kickoff, millions of people will be conducting research, ranking players, holding fantasy drafts and coming up with witty team names. America, you’re officially obsessed with Fantasy Football. But it wasn’t always like this. As technology has evolved …
Sometimes it’s helpful to go back over the trades, transactions and injury news over the past few months, just to refresh our minds before getting ramped up for the Fantasy Football season. So here’s a quick review of the NFL offseason as training camps begin. Try not to sing the A-B-C song as you go …
A little over a decade ago, I had a “draft pick draft” with a bunch of other Fantasy Football writers. That’s right, we drafted Fantasy Football draft picks. RotoExperts.com’s Scott Engel, with CBSSports.com at the time, still mocks me for it when I go on his Sirius/XM Fantasy Football radio show. “Hey Gonos, I want …
The term “sleeper” signifies many things, including a hibernating bear, Uncle Gus after Thanksgiving, the nerdy chick that is a makeover away from hotness, and a player that could see significantly increased Fantasy value compared to last season, making him one of a few 2012 Fantasy sleepers. We’re going to talk about hot nerdy chicks! …
You knew it was too good to be true. Marshawn Lynch’s arrest on suspicion of a DUI Saturday just screwed up the first two rounds of Fantasy drafts – and training camps haven’t even started yet. A possible Marshawn Lynch suspension just threw a wrench in our midsummer Fantasy plans. I need a drink. Now …
500 pennies can change your Fantasy draft strategy for the better. I promise. So simple, yet so underutilized. Don’t draft your quarterback early – yet more than three-quarters of us do it every year. Hell, I did it last week, taking Cam Newton with the 3.01 pick in a writers’ mock draft. For Last week, …
In the first part of this look at when you should draft Calvin Johnson, we examined his 2011 season a little closer. We found that while he was great overall, he had some weak spots in the middle of the season. Were those weak spots enough to scare us away from drafting him in the …
It would be a mistake for us not to value Calvin Johnson as the best receiver in Fantasy Football. After all, he was a solid 44 pointsbetter than the second-best receiver last season, using standard scoring. And there’s a reason his nickname is Megatron: his body of work is out of this world. But let’s …
