College week continues here at Fantasy Football Brothers with a look at the receivers. Next week Fantasy Football Brothers begins rolling out its highly anticipated FREE Draft Kit. Stay Tuned....... The wide receivers in the college ranks have boom or bust written all over them. One thing you know already is that Oklahoma States' Bryant is a star in the making who will put up astronomical numbers. He is special. After the top 30 the rankings get a little dicey as I stated before, the list becomes cluttered with guys who could finish with 700-900 yards and 6-10 touchdowns. It is important to look for guys who are returning to their roles and are also working with the same quarterback and coaching staff as last year. Freshmen (rookie) receivers are like their NFL counterparts, not many produce at high levels, it is a huge adjustment from high school football. Become a Fan on Facebook Dez... read more

We continue our preview of the college ranks with the second part of our College Fantasy Football Draft Kit. The Running Backs take a back seat to quarterbacks in the world of college fantasy football, but make no mistake they are just as important. There is alot of value in the college backs this year and the rankings show it. This is a very talented group of runners and many possess the needed skills to take it to the next level. James Starks of Buffalo is our top ranked fantasy college back, at 6'2",215lbs. he blends power and speed and displays good hands out of the backfield. He now becomes the focal point of the Bulls offensive attack with the graduation of record setting quarterback Drew Willy. The Pac-10 is loaded this year as four are in the top thirteen and three backs are in the top six. If you do not play college fantasy football, these rankings... read more

If you play in a college fantasy league or you are just getting into one, just know this, draft a quarterback with your first round pick, and you are ahead of the game. College quarterbacks dominate the fantasy scoring as witnessed last year as 8 of the top 10 points leaders were signal callers. It is a different game in the college landscape of fantasy football, unlike the NFL where running backs hold court, in this kingdom, quarterbacks are kings.

Talent and stature were the original characteristics that spawned correlations between the two undeniably gifted wide-outs. But as time has passed, we've seen that they have even more in common than originally thought: BIG mouths, with an unavoidable attraction for trouble. The Wide Receiver position is a primadonna... read more
This week the Brotherhood took a tour through the NFC East. Arguably the toughest division in football the NFC East is the only division that hosts four legitimate playoff contenders. It is also the only Division that will see all four teams starting running backs ranked in the top 14. Fantasy hopes will be resting on these running backs shoulders throughout the year. With teams going with more of a committee approach, it is crucial to know who will be backing up or splitting carries. This list is a breakdown of each teams depth and what should be expected out of each player.
