My Fantasy Football League, Week 1: “Approaching the Draft”

Over the years, I have come to less and less emphasis on the draft. As a purveyor of fantasy football news, I often exit drafts thinking I have outdone my counterparts. I usually pick up starters know one else even knows, pass on players slated for down seasons, and adjust my fantasy football projections for [...]

Johnson & Owens are both Draft-worthy

The 2010 Fantasy Football season is upon us, and I know the first thing on your mind is: “Where do I draft both Terrell Owens and Chad Johnson?” I’m just kidding. However, even though drafting Owens and Johnson isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you’re thinking about your fantasy football draft, it [...]

Prediction: Marshall headed for a down 2010

As we enter the 2010 fantasy football season, everybody is concerned about ranking this player here and ranking that player there. Quite frankly, that’s all we do in August; “fantasy football rankings.” One thing that irks me about fantasy football rankings, however, is when people get things way wrong! Of course, I’m not perfect either, [...]

Terrell Owens is coming! Terrell Owens is coming!

That’s right, fantasy football players! You thought you could get rid of him, but the future Hall of Famer, and one time fantasy football one-man wrecking crew will be on a draft board near you! But can T.O. really help your fantasy football team? I was amazed at the number of people who think Owens’ [...]

This is the fourth year of TheSportsWatchers.com Fantasy Football section, and in each of the previous three we have suggested that you draft a running back in the first round and a running back in the second round—often known as “going running back, running back.” However, the 2010 fantasy football season presents several problems to [...]

Top 5 Defenses in Fantasy Football – 2010

When it comes to drafting defenses and special teams, the process shouldn’t be all that different from drafting kickers. In fact, I could even make an argument that drafting a kicker before picking a defense could be to your advantage in your 2010 fantasy football draft given that a kicker’s production doesn’t fluctuate from season [...]

Top 5 Tight Ends in Fantasy Football – 2010

Last year, unless you had Vernon Davis, Dallas Clark or Antonio Gates, your tight end position probably did very little to give you an advantage over your fantasy football opponent. Davis, Clark and Gates were all very close in terms of fantasy points, with the range for all three equaling a whopping 12 points, which [...]

Preseason WR Rankings: #10 DeSean Jackson

DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia Eagles Wide Receiver Ranking: #10 – DeSean Jackson was the man in Philadelphia last season. If not for him, who knows how horribly the Eagles season could have went. While the Eagles offense was sputtering like an old hoopty, DeSean Jackson was busy leading the league in scores of 50 yards or [...]

Preseason WR Rankings: #9 Mike Wallace

Mike Wallace, Pittsburgh Steelers Wide Receiver Ranking: #9 – Bye, bye, Santonio Holmes, and hello Mr. Wallace! There’s an easy way to explain why the Pittsburgh Steelers got rid of Santonio Holmes so quickly—Mike Wallace made him expendable. Don’t get me wrong, Santonio emerged as a #1 wide receiver in 2009, and if I had [...]

Preseason WR Rankings: #8 Calvin Johnson

Calvin Johnson, Detroit Lions Wide Receiver Ranking: #8 – I love numbers! Those of you that read our main site, TheSportsWatchers.com, or especially our regular fantasy football posts are aware of that.
