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 …
I took part in another Fantasy Football writer’s league mock draft this week, this time as part of the RotoExperts group. This 2012 Mock Draft team came out pretty good, in my opinion, although I had to practice what I preach in the early going. (The draft is part of the RotoExperts.com 2012 NFL Xclusive …
Opening arguments: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, all summer, I’ve been admonishing the masses against taking Arian Foster first overall. But in my recent mock drafts, I’ve never had to practice what I preach – until Monday night in a MyFantasyLeague.com mock draft. I had to go ahead and take Ray Rice first overall …
Fantasy Football owners that take their trade seriously understand the correlation between 2012 Fantasy player values to 2012 Offensive Line Rankings. A good running back usually only is as good as his offensive line allows (unlike what Barry Sanders’ career tells you). So I did some digging and found three sites that did lots of …
In the first two parts of this RB dropoffs series, we discussed when to expect a RB dropoff to occur, and we highlighted the dropoff numbers for Fantasy RBs from the 1990s and 2000s. We have made it to part three and it is now time to examine the running backs currently in the league. …
I love a good infographic -- especially ones that talk about beer or football! But this one I thought was pretty clever of the folks at CreditScore.net. Although, I do have a few comments about their ... comments. History: Much like Fantasy Baseball, the history of Fantasy Football's creation is pretty debated. I'm fine with their …
In an effort to dissect the world of Fantasy running backs, I will be writing a four-part series on how the position has been used over the past three decades. I will look at when feature running backs start their decline and if there is a “career carries” threshold, besides just age, that could predict …
The MyFantasyLeague.com MFL 10s mock draft is officially behind us now, after about a week or so of drafting. I’m happy with my roster, but there are certainly spots that I feel I got ganked just before my pick. This is my review of my team, with some highlights and lowlights. You can also go …
With basketball and hockey officially over, and baseball entering its midseason months, people begin to look for some Fantasy Football advice as they begin to think about their drafts. But a lot of times, offseason news slips through the cracks, and you might have missed a piece of news that would otherwise readjust your personal …
Another day and a few more rounds have flown by in the MFL 10s, the MyFantasyLeague.com Fantasy Football Mock Draft I was invited to earlier this week. This is a PPR league with three starting wide receivers, as well as a flex position, that includes RB, WR and TE. From my own perspective, I knew …
