Ginn Jr. will take another step in 2009Last year really helped Ginn's fantasy value coming into this season. Mainly because he now has a capable quarterback and rock solid supporting cast around him.The third season in a receivers carrier is usually the year he breaks out and truly establishes himself in the NFL. While Ted has not posted more then two touchdowns in a single year, one has to believe he will go past that number this season.Good supporting CastWith a running game people have... Read Full Story
Playing the Spoiler Role in 2009In this years draft you will see teams probably draft Thomas Jones in the first 5 rounds. You may even see teams take a stab at back up runner Leon Washington. But you would be a wise fantasy owner to pay attention to 3rd round rook runner Shonn Greene.Greene had a very good junior year at Iowa posting 307 carries, 1.850 yards and 20 touchdowns. For this season the key stat in those numbers is the 20 touchdowns. Shonn's playing weight is 235 pounds, this si... Read Full Story
Sproles to Back up LT in 2009While Darren is a great special teams player, he will never be a feature runner for an entire season. The man is just too small and fragile to carry that kind of load in the NFL. But he will be and excellent runner to come into games and give LT a breather during the season.Beyond giving LT some rest, look for Sproles to handle the mop up work, at the end of blow outs. San Diego is a classic one year great and next year average team, that means they are due for a ... Read Full Story
Matt Ryan and the Rise of the FalconsComing into the 2008 season I thought the Falcons were at team headed in the right direction. With key acquisitions in running back Michael Turner and 1st round pick quarterback Matt Ryan.Little did I realize what a major impact both of those players would have on this team right away. No doubt Ryan's progression was helped by having a dominant running game, but he was also greatly helped by true No.1 wide receiver Roddy White.No.84 proved in 2007 he c... Read Full Story
Congratulations Bear Fans this is your No.1 Receiver......Again!Maybe I should give the Bears a pass for not getting a solid receiver in free agency, because the got Jay Cutler. But if I did that I would be a nice guy and that's not my style.Don't get me wrong Bear fans, you see I'm a San Fransisco Giants fan and I know what it's like when ownership won't help the team. The SF Giants are probably the worst hitting team ever and it's understandable when the only talent ... Read Full Story
Clinton and the Redskins OffenseClinton Portis looked like he was on his way to an MVP season in the first half of the year. But then injury's hampered his success and both he and the Redskins fell out of sight in 2008.While Portis has never really been the explosive runner as he was in Denver, he has been a very solid feature runner for Washington.Quarterback Jason Campbell took another step forward in his progression and Santana Moss came back to life. Throw in Chirs Cooley and the Reds... Read Full Story
Can DeSean Score Touchdowns?Action Jackson would of had 4 total touchdowns for the season, if he had not celebrated early against the Cowboys, on a long catch from McNabb. But instead DeSean maid a foolish error on national tv and only had 3 touchdowns (not counting special teams) in 2008.Now if you are in a league that gets credit for the touchdowns he scores in special teams your gold with this receiver. But if you are in leagues that don't give credit to his dazzling punt returns his 3 tou... Read Full Story
Tony Romo Loses His No.1 ReceiverRomo and the Cowboys did not live up to their lofty expectation a year ago. In fact Dallas did not even make a trip to the playoffs in 2008.When the off-season came many fingers were pointed at Terrell Owens being the main reason the Cowboys struggled. Common belief in the media was that Owens was a big bad bully and always cried for the football.Because of this Romo maid poor decisions and tried to force the ball to No.81 more often then he should have.While...

Sage needs to cut down on the mistakesI want to like Rosenfels for his run and gun style of play but the man just makes too many mistakes.Rosenfels can go out and make some great plays and then make a horrible one, like the fumble against the Colts in the 4th quarter. In that contest, Sage for all intents and purpose was trying to make a John Elway super bowl type of play to get a first down. Only problem was he went air born, got hit by three guys and fumbled the ball. One of the Colts defen... Read Full Story
Mark Clayton is Ready to Make a Fantasy ImpactLast season started out very slow for Mark as he had a rookie quarterback under center in Baltimore. No.89 also found himself as the second receiver in the offense again, behind Derrick Mason.This year look for Clayton to take another step on his way to being a solid fantasy receiver.For one the Ravens finally have a legit quarterback in Joe Flacco. Joe will become a better passer (especially touchdowns) every year from here on out.Derrick Mason i... Read Full Story
