Today on our tour of all 32 NFL Teams Fantasy Update we check in on San Francisco, Minnesota Vikings. Mr. Number 1 Fantasy Pick Adrian Peterson and the Vikings look to solidify their QB play, and in San Francisco the fiery Mike Singletary will have the entire off season to leave his imprint on the team before the season starts. We look forward to hearing from our readers, and as usual any comments or questions will ALWAYS be answered.NFL TEAM: SAN FRANCISCO MOVES THAT MATTER: San Francisco signed Free Agent QB Damon Huard, further muddling the QB situation with QB Alex Smith, and QB Shaun Hill..... WR Bryant Johnson left for greener pastures of Detroit and in came WR Brandon Jones from the Titans, Jones should start opposite 2nd year man WR Josh Morgan....RB Deshaun Foster leaving has left the 49ers seriously thin at RB....There have been grumblings at the Niners O.T.A.... read more

We continue our tour of the NFL with our team by team Fantasy update leading all the way up to the NFL Draft. Today we stop in Miami, and Houston two teams looking to turn the corner in their respective divisions. Miami looks to build on an improbable playoff run, and Houston finally looks to break the .500 barrier. We look forward to hearing your questions and feedback. At Fantasy Brothers we ALWAYS answer your questions NFL TEAM: MIAMI DOLPHINS MOVES THAT MATTER: Miami's worst 1-15 in 07 to first 11-5 in 08 transformation was nothing short of amazing.... A healthy RB Ronnie Brown and the reintroduction of the Wildcat formation to the NFL led to the turnaround....QB Chad Pennington brought stability to the QB position though the Dolphins have already named QB Chad Henne the eventual successor to Popgun Pennington in 2010....Miami needs to address their wide receiver depth in the... read more

Editors note: QB Jeff Garcia signed with Oakland today, Garcia likely was signed as the backup and WR Laurent Robinson from Atlanta was traded to St. Louis this afternoon. Here at Fantasy Football HQ we are going to take a look around the league and conduct a Fantasy Football checkup on all 32 NFL teams. We will kick the tires, and check under the hood as we begin on our earnest goal of getting you ready for your Fantasy Football season. Its fantasy time here all year long. We welcome and encourage any questions, or comments here at Fantasy Brothers. Without further ado: NFL TEAM: Atlanta Falcons MOVES THAT MATTER: The Falcons have not made any notable moves on the offensive side of the ball as we head towards the NFL Draft.... Atlanta is looking to improve on a Cinderella like 11-5 season that was led by Rookie of the Year and former Boston College... read more

I’ve heard multiple people around the league comment that Plax is not necessarily a bad person, but he is a person that bad things have happened to. But lets clarify something. Plaxico Burress’ problems did not start with the pulling of a trigger. Plaxico’s tardiness to team meetings, work ethic, and commitment have all come into question over the last couple of seasons. As much as I dislike the guy, there is no denying his talent. We all saw how much different of a team the Giants were when Plax was on the field, and when he was off. Whether he is catching a ton of balls or not, he is a player that keeps defensive coordinators honest - and changes how opposing teams game plan for the Giants. Earth, Wind, and Fire has lost a member, and Big Boy Brandon Jacobs could suffer with no legitimate receiving threat preventing... read more

Quarterback Jay Cutler was traded to the Chicago Bears yesterday for two first round draft picks, and QB Kyle Orton. The move puts Denver in position to draft a QB at the 11 spot or trade draft picks and move up in the draft, or trade draft picks and acquire a QB from a team like Cleveland which has two to many Quarterbacks. But that is not here nor there. We are going to analyze the impact in Chicago Fantasy Brothers style. Cutler brings his rocket arm and diva like attitude to the QB desperate Bears. The good news is Cutler should win a bunch of games this year, and instantly vault the Bears into NFC Super Bowl contenders in 09. Cutler will have an above average Offensive line protecting him and a great Running Back 1 in Matt Forte to keep the opposing defenses honest. A stellar Bear's defense... read more
