Case of the Mondays: Week 10 Waiver Wire Adds and Fantasy Recap
I hate the COM’s that start with injury. I don’t care how sinister a fantasy owner you are, nobody wants the elite stars of the league to go down. Monday, we may have lost Aaron Rodgers for significant time, tests still to come. Oh and if you think Rodgers owners are the only ones who should be hurting, ummm nope. Jordy Nelson, James Jones, and Jarrett Boykin owners should be in the dumps as well. All of those players will take significant hits should Rodgers miss the rest of this
Fantasy Football Sleepers – 2013
Beauty, cells, and sofas; all famous sleepers. While not directly related in context, that is the very theme of this article ahead, finding the next famous sleeper. Many people have different ideas of what a sleeper is so I always like to give a quick frame of reference on mine before I begin. A sleeper is a back up or at minimum a later round pick. Despite never starting, I do not consider David Wilson a sleeper because he has a 3rd round ADP or the equivalent of a terrible
Same Face, New Place 2014
With each new season comes the unwavering reality of players finding new situations. In the salary cap era, it is very difficult for any team, both good and bad, to remain the same from year to year. The important thing for us as fantasy football freakazoids, is to identify which movers will be shakers and which movers will be stankers. Here is a guide to some of the more important moves from this NFL offseason! QBs Matt Schaub (Hou-Oak) - Schaub wore out his welcome last year in Houston thanks in large
Lions, Tigers and…Jaguars?
With their starting running back out having only amassed a poor 20 fantasy points on the season and their defense ranking 30th overall, the Jacksonville boys finally decided to show up. I am sure that no one saw both Denard and Allen Robinson coming, and if you really like to live on the edge you might have went with Storm Johnson at the flex, though I hope you didn’t. Hopefully you didn’t partner him with Alfred Morris or a Ben Tate or any one carrying the ball for the Bengals

Seahawks Seahawks: No Huddle The Seahawks have scored 57 of their 98 points in the last six quarters of football, the change to the no huddle offense the primary catalyst for this offensive explosion. This small sample of football has created some optimism that Seattle has found a working formula on offense. Â I was listening to the FieldGulls/KJR 12th man podcast last week and Scott Enyeart brought up a less talked about, but pertinent observation about the win in New York; he was impressed by the conditioning of the Seahawks and their

Observations from a 20-Team Draft I’m running a 20-team league through Yahoo this year with friends of mine. I feel like they are a decent gauge for the fantasy football community, as their knowledge range varies pretty evenly from addicts like myself and a few others to casual football fans. With that in mind, I decided to go back over the draft from Saturday night and pick out a couple of selections that stood out to me for one reason or another. The league has mostly standard scoring with .5 PPR. Reaches Michael

Same Face, New Place - Peyton Manning Alright folks let’s cut to the chase. This is the man we want to know about. This is the man who needs to bounce back and prove, to us all, that he can outperform the best in the league. The bar has been set high. I mean The Discount Double Check was one heck of a commercial. And if there was any debate, the sequel with BJ Raji was even better. Not only did Aaron Rodgers step into Peyton’s MVP shoes, but he stepped

Fantasy Football - Peyton Chooses Broncos The NFL world was shaken today with Peyton Manning making the decision to go play quarterback for the Denver Broncos, a decision that, if healthy, instantly lifts that passing game and should bring more consistent fantasy numbers to others in that offense. But before jumping on the Manning bandwagon, temper your expectations on Peyton for a new team as there are many differences between the Colts with Manning the “Gun Slinger†and what could be his new role as Manning the “Game Managerâ€. The Colts with
Fantasy Football Sleepers
Ok so let’s define this shall we. Everyone has a sleeper category and many people mean different things. Here at FFBLife and in my eyes I look at a sleeper as follows: A guy with abundantly more potential to blow up than his fellows. Make sense? It’s a guy who has one way or another caught my eye through some combination of talent and/or possible opportunity. If you are going to take a shot on a guy at the end of your roster, what’s the point of looking for a guy who
