However, the answer to the ‘Skins offensive woes could be right under their nose. Read more

Ranking 2008 Rookie WRs

Surprisingly, St. Louis’ Donnie Avery was the first WR selected in the 2008 NFL Draft. The speedy route runner from the University of Houston came out of nowhere to become the 33rd overall pick. Just because he was the first pass catcher taken, doesn’t mean it’ll translate to the stat column in 2008. Limas Sweed, however, was the ninth pass catcher taken, and his fantasy value is looking pretty solid heading into 2008. Each season there’s at least one rookie WR who steps up his game and becomes fantasy worthy in his first season, and believe it or not, there is a rhyme or reason to predicting which one it’ll be.

Top Dynasty League Rookie Prospects

Since the completion of the 2008 NFL Draft, the number one question that I’ve been asked by fantasy owners is - “how do you rank this year’s rookies for dynasty drafts?” Obviously, this is a very different question than asking - “which rookies will have the best statistical seasons in 2008?” Read more

Some Holes Are Still Wide Open

While many teams filled various needs during the NFL Draft, and others added depth to positions of strength, fantasy owners were hoping for a few things - the Houston Texans to draft a legit starting RB to replace Ahman Green, the Titans to take a stud WR in round one, the Cowboys to draft a solid future WR prospect and the Bears to take a decent signal caller.
