  • Life Of A First Time Fantasy Football Owner
    By: sanjai singania | - When a friend of mine asked me to join his Fantasy Football League, I figured what the heck all I do on Sundays is watch NFL games anyway.A couple of weeks later I received the confirmation email to go online and register my team name and set up my account before the fantasy league draft. Once I set up my account I noticed that you could actually rank the players in order that you wanted on your team. It seemed easy; I went through found players that are usually good playmakers, but after the ...

  • Life Of A First Time Fantasy Football Owner
    By: Monty Mazyck | - When I signed up for a fantasy football league the first time, I wasn't sure what to expect. I knew a lot about football and players from different teams around the league in general, but I had always cheered for certain players that I liked, and wished other players would just run into the goal post during games like Terrell Owens.

  • 2009 Dallas Cowboys Fantasy Football Preview
    By: oaklandraiderscentral.com | - For the 3rd straight year under the leadership of Wade Phillips and Tony Romo the Cowboys were a train wreck of an organization and failed to live up to their pre-season Super Bowl hype. In 2006 it was the botched snap against the Seahawks in Seattle. In 2007, the errant end zone pass thrown by Romo spelled their doom and last year the team failed to qualify for the playoffs outright by getting blown out by the Philadelphia Eagles 44-6 during the last week of the regular season in a winner g ...

  • 2009 Denver Broncos Fantasy Football Preview
    By: oaklandraiderscentral.com | - Ahhh where should I start with the Josh McDipshit led Denver Broncos. Anyone who has been a reader of my articles knows that this is what I call McDaniels and it has such a nice ring to it that I just can't stop. It's an addiction and I fully admit it but who can blame me? I mean seriously who comes in during their first year and runs a Pro Bowl QB out of town which is exactly what McDipshit did with Jay Cutler who is now in Chicago? For the life of me I can't see how Joshy Poo thought he was be ...

  • My Top 40 Fantasy Qb's For 2009
    By: oaklandraiderscentral.com | - Well, training camps have opened people and fantasy drafts are rapidly approaching. With that in mind I will be compiling MY rankings of the top 40 QB's, 50 RB's, 50 WR's, 30 TE, and all the DST units. I will not be ranking kickers simply because there is no point. I will be starting off with QB's.

    What signal callers should you target for your fantasy team heading into 2009? Is Tom Terrific 100??Well, the research is done (and I must say A LOT of research) and here are my top 40 ...

  • 2009 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Fantasy Football Preview
    By: oaklandraiderscentral.com | - The Bucs completely fell apart down the stretch in 2008 culminating with a devastating 31-24 loss to the Oakland Raiders at home on the last week of the season to miss the playoffs. Were there some strong ramifications after the loss? You bet as Tampa fired Head Coach and former Raider Head Coach Jon Gruden who led the team to unthinkable heights in 2002 when the Buc's destroyed the Raiders 48-21 in Super Bowl XXXVII. Replacing Gruden will be 32 year old Raheem Morris who takes the position afte ...

  • 2009 Ny Giants Fantasy Football Preview
    By: oaklandraiderscentral.com | - The NY Giants failed in their attempt to repeat as Super Bowl champions falling to the Philadelphia Eagles 23-11 in the Divisional Playoff. The loss of Plaxico Burress who accidentally shot himself in the leg with an unregistered gun and was subsequently suspended and released clearly contributed to the Giants downfall. The Giants never had the deep threat after Burress's departure as Dominick Hixon, and Steve Smith failed miserably to fill his shoes. What do the Giants have in store for fantasy ...

  • 2009 Washington Redskins Fantasy Preview
    By: oaklandraiderscentral.com | - The 2008 Washington Redskins finished a disappointing 8-8 failing to qualify for the postseason. Following an off season where the team bolstered the defense with the signing of DT Albert Haynesworth and also saw the flirtation with Mark Sanchez and Jay Cutler the Redskins head into 2009. What will the Skins offer fantasy owners for the upcoming season? Lets examine this now.

    The bottom line is that the Redskins brass does not believe that QB Jason Campbell is the answer. ...

I would again like to extend my condolences to the family and friends of Steve McNair. I am still in shock over what happened yesterday but the show must go on. RIP Steve, you will be missed.

    The 2008 Philadelphia Eagles will always have a special place in my heart as their DST unit was one of the primary reasons that I took the title. The Eagles were up and down all year but ...

  • Your Fantast Football Draft: Do You Need A Law Degree?
    By: Professor Wagstaff | - Here we are, just a month away from the opening of NFL camps and one of the many things with which owners need to concern themselves as they head into this years fantasy football draft is whether or not they have a tight enough grasp on how the legal system will affect some on their draft lists.

    Under normal circumstances, a player returning to the league after a year off, (usually due to injury), that has the exceptional athletic ability of a Michael Vick, could be counte ...

  • 2009 Pittsburg Steelers Fantasy Football Preview
    By: ccameo | - The Pittsburg Steelers won their 6th Super Bowl title and 2nd in 4 years in 2008 by defeating the Arizona Cardinals 27-23 in a heartstopping classic. Ben Roethlisberger rebounded from his poor showing a couple years earlier against Seattle by completing 21-30 passes for 256 yards and the game winning TD to Santonio Holmes with just seconds left. Although the Steelers capped their impressive season by winning the Super Bowl they were an inconsistent bunch all year long in terms of fantasy perform ...

  • 2009 Cleveland Browns Fantasy Football Preview
    By: ccameo | - The 2008 Cleveland Browns were a complete disaster finishing 4-12 and bringing up the rear in the AFC North. The teams meltdown cost Head Coach Romeo Crennell his job and he was subsequently replaced by one half of the Belichick deciphels that NFL Network's Jamie Dukes so eloquently refers to as "Mickey and Mouse" Eric "The Mangenious" Mangini. Mangini looks to take a team that seemed on the verge of playoff contention a couple of years ago to that very level. Let's examine the Browns fantasy ...

    By: ccameo | - Joe Flacco and the 2008 Baltimore Ravens came out of nowhere finishing 11-5 and winning 2 playoff games before finally succumbing 23-14 to the Pittsburg Steelers in the AFC Championship Game. Nobody and I mean nobody could have predicted Flacco's success as he clearly demonstrated that he has the mo-jo and leadership qualities necessary to be a success in the NFL. However, historically the Ravens have not been known to produce many fantasy studs and that was no different last year as with the ex ...

    By: ccameo | - Ahhhh my Oakland Raiders. I have been a lifelong Raider fan and it just pains me to witness what my beloved team has become. The Raiders finished 5-11 in 2008 leaving the Raider Nation with yet another year of heartache. I have written (and will continue to write) several articles about the Raiders prospects as a team heading into 2009. For the sake of this article however, I will be examining the Raiders solely from a fantasy prospective. With that in mind let's look at the fantasy potential of ...

Furthermore, the Chiefs have a new starting QB in former Patriot Matt Cassel and the three newbies will attempt to bring some excitement back to a franchise that has been doormat for years.

    By: ccameo | - 2008 represented a up and down year for the San Diego Chargers. The team started horribly then somehow rebounded to finish 8-8 and managed to steal the AFC West from the Denver Broncos by beating them 52-21 on the final week of the regular season. The Bolts then defeated Indianapolis 23-17 in the Wildcard round before finally bowing to the eventual Super Bowl Champion Pittsburg Steelers 35-24 in the Divisional Playoff. The year saw QB Phillip Rivers emerge as one of the NFL's elite and also w ...

  • Fantasy Football Trophies
    By: Mary Braun | - There are trophies for sports, there are trophies for jobs well done and there are trophies for pie eating contests. But one of the most unique trophies is the fantasy football trophy. The winner of a fantasy football trophy does not play football, in fact he may never step foot on a field. He/She is the part of a fantasy football league in which they acquire a list of real football players in the NFL. When those players win their stats are used for the fantasy football owners and then their ...

  • Fantasy Football And Other Sport Trophies
    By: Gen Wright | - Trophies have come to symbolize recognition of a job well done. All sports are competitive and while we emphasize that winning isn't everything, the winning team that worked so hard to achieve that goal should receive accolades. Often times trophies are awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners and some go as far as 5th. It is nice to receive a trophy in one of those categories and if you don't receive one, to aspire to that for the next season.

    By: ccameo | - The Tennessee Titans came of age in 2008 posting a 13-3 record and claiming the AFC South title knocking the Indianapolis Colts off of their perch. However, the season failed to end the way the Titans hoped as they were defeated 13-10 by the Baltimore Ravens in the Divisional Playoffs. The end of my fantasy season was far more favorable than the Titans as I claimed my 2nd Super Bowl title in 10 years. One of the big reasons I was celebrating around Christmas time when other owners were cryin ...

The team finished with a disappointing 5-11 record after losing in the Divisional Playoffs in 2007 at the hands of the New England Patriots. What went wrong? Maybe a better question is what didn't go wrong? For starters, the offensive line was in complete shambles due to various injuries and the misery climaxed with the shooting of Richard Collier who was left paralyzed from the waist down as a result. T ...

  • 2009 Indianapolis Colts Fantasy Football Preview
    By: ccameo | - The year 2008 was kind of a down year for the Indianapolis Colts. For the 6th time in his career Peyton Manning was one and done in the playoffs losing 23-17 to the San Diego Chargers in the Wildcard round. Moreover, last year was somewhat of an off year for Manning statistically despite winning his 3rd league MVP award and I witnessed firsthand what it is like to have a QB that is trying to shake the rust off after having off season knee injury. Manning heated up later in the year but unfor ...

    By: ccameo | - The Houston Texans represent a virgin regarding the NFL Playoffs since their inception into the league in 2002. Head Coach Gary Kubiak and Texans fans have reason to believe that will change in 2008 and quite frankly I am on the bandwagon as well. The team has developing skill positions and a defense that has been built around DE Mario Williams (remember when everybody ridiculed the Texans for taking Williams over Reggie Bush?????) and now features first round draft pick LB Brian Cushing out o ...

  • Analysing The Fantasy Football Impact From The 2009 Draft
    By: ccameo | - 2008 represented a tremendous year for rookies in terms of fantasy football. I know because I rode 2 of them (Chris Johnson and Matt Forte) to a league championship. What will the draft class of 2009 have in store for fantasy owners come this fall? Personally, I don't believe that this years class is talented as last years but time will tell. The following represent my preliminary takes regarding the 2009 draft class:

    By: ccameo | - The Miami Dolphins came out of nowhere in 2009 to win the AFC East before succumbing to the Baltimore Ravens in the first roundof the playoffs. The two main factors for the dramatic turnaroundnd rest with the acquisition of QB Chad Pennington who was released by the NY Jets after the team signed Brett Favre and the rise of the Wildcat formation that proved to catch several team (ie New England) off guard. In terms of fantasy though the Dolphins really don't have much in the way of players who ...

The Jets were a major player in last weekends draft by moving up to the 5th spot via the Cleveland Browns and former coach Eric Mangini in order to select their QB of the future Mark Sanchez. With the selection of Sanchez, the Jets now have taken six quarterbacks in the first round in their 50-year history. Joe Namath was taken higher than anyo ...

I easily could have been one those owners because I would have selected Brady myself. I had the 5th pick in my draft and it was going to be either Brady or Peyton Manning with that pick ...

  • Fantasy Football "€" Draft Or Auction?
    By: Bill Parsons MFS | - Tradition has a lot to do with it, and the answer that many draft fans will give for not changing is that the draft works fine. That is perfectly true, but the auction also works fine, and also better. It is fairer and also a lot more interesting, and demands more thought when buying players because it introduces the concept of spend capping. You all start with the same pot to spend, and have to balance your stud players with the rest.
