Fantasy Football Brothers takes a look at the key injuries from Sundays games.  Stay tuned for updates during the week as key starting RB spots may be up for grabs in Week 4. Week 3 Injuries:   Ray Rice (RB-BAL):  Ray was injured in the fourth quarter of his game against the Cleveland Browns with a knee injury.  He had rushed 15 times for 80yds, and added another 16yds in the air with 4 receptions before he left the game.  Coach Jim Harbaugh said after the game that Rice does not have ligament damage, which is a good sign, but he is questionable for his Week 4 game against the 3-0 Steelers.  Stay tuned early in the week for updates as his test results become available.  If Rice is out for Week 4, look for Le’Ron McLain and Willis... read more

Austin jumps Andre for the 1 spot. Moss and Welker look to put up numbers vs. the Bills. Brandon Marshall should benefit from his avoidance of Revis Island. Nicks, Santans, Collie and Royal should all continue to produce. Crabtree, Bowe and Garcon are all looking to get stared. How should you sit? Who should you start? Questions about how to trade? Who to pick up off the wire? Who will continue to struggle? Who will bounce back? Try our ALL ACESS BROTHERHOOD MEMBERSHIP, where all questions are answered. Here's the Brotherhood's Week 3 WR Ranks and Write ups. 1) Miles Austin - DAL - WR Austin is unstoppable. Dallas is in disarray, but Austin's numbers have not suffered. Dez Bryant will eventually mature and steal some targets, but he's the highest scoring WR in most formats. 2) Andre Johnson - HOU... read more

UPDATED: 9/24/10 8:08 p.m. Denver RB Knowhson Moreno has already been ruled out for Sunday's game.   Friday's at the Brotherhood means only one thing. It is ranks and writeup time. We have been hard at work with our new exclusive player projection tool, and we are getting ready to roll it out real soon. We still need to figure out a name for this thing, but more on that next week. We take a look at the backs heading into week 3. It has been nuts at the running-back position. When the only back that has two one hundred yard games is Darren McFadden then you know it has really has been a squirrelly season. We have a ton of movement in our ranks this week as we are expecting the return of Beanie Wells and Michael Bush. Both... read more

Week 3 came in a huury!!   As expected, "Superman" and Antonio Gates have led the way so far.  I expect that trend to continue, but be on the lookout for the Rookies!  Aaron Hernandez aka "Double A" may be in for a big week, along with freshman Jermaine Gresham.  Double A should remain a great PPR TE option, especially with the injury to 3rd down specialist RB Kevin Faulk.  Look for Double A to recharge Brady's batteries this week against the Bills.  (Soo Cheesy I know, but I couldn't resist...)   And Gresham will have his fair share of targets with an injured 85 (ocho cinco). WEEK 3 Rankings: 1) Dallas Clark - IND - TE, at Denver Broncos, Sun 4:15 PM D. Clark aka "Superman" continues to dominate the TE's for both receptions and... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's rolls along into Week 3 of the NFL Season. This week there are alot of good matchups and we should start to see the separation of the men and the boys. There are alot of defenses that have played up and down the first two weeks, it's time for some of these teams to find an identity. Case in point the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs who have surprised defensively to begin the young season. Will it continue? or will they find themselves on the scrap heap at the end of the season? We almost did a double take as we still have the Baltimore Ravens as our top ranked team defense heading into Week 3. Ray Lewis and Co. will be salivating against a Cleveland Browns team that has no identity and is led by the worst coach in the NFL.... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's dives headfirst into Week 3 of the NFL Season. We have seen kickers keep their jobs for the most part and the turnover is less than last season. It appeared last year the Washington Redskins were going to set the record for kickers rostered in a season. This season has been steady and the kickers have performed right on par. The carousel now seems to have converted to the quarterback position in the NFL as just this week there will be new quarterbacks in Carolina, Oakland, and Buffalo. Who would have guessed Oakland and Buffalo. There are probably more but I'm supposed to be writing on kickers. Oh, if they would ever let me write on a real position? This week we stick with our guns and recommend Lawrence Tynes of the New York Giants. He should get the chances to maximize fantasy points... read more

Last week was nothing short of  crazy for the quarterback position.  Vince Young, David Garrad, Jason Campbell, Trent Edwards, Matt Morre and Derek Anderson all got yanked in favor of their back ups.  Young and Garrard will get another shot this weekend, but Campbell and the others weren't as lucky.  The immortal Bruce Gradkoski has earned the chance to lead the Raiders.  Harvard alum Ryan Fitzpatrick will take over for the Bills, and rookie 2nd round pick Jimmy Clausen will make his first NFL start for the Panthers.  If that wasn't enough, Mark Sanchez outperformed Tom Brady.  We might have stumbled upon the quarterback apocalypse of 2010. The good news is, most of these players are irrelevant to fantasy nation.   But what about the ones who are?   Week 3 will be a true test to see if some of these guys can become legitimate weekly... read more

Note To Our Readers: 1ST LOOK: Ranks are for our Brotherhood All-Access Members only.  The WR ranks are part of our free trial so that our readers can sample the 1ST LOOK: Andre's ankle injury is said to be minor, but it's just enough for Austin to unseat him at the 1 spot. Look for Welker and Moss to put up solid stats vs. the Bills. Chad Henne needs to find a way to get the ball to Brandon Marshall more often. DeMaryius Thomas came out of no where to put up solid stats in his NFL debut. Garcon and Crabtree continue to struggle. Nicks and Collie find ways to hit pay-dirt. Mark Clayton proves to be no fluke, Ocho tweets he's got a fractured rib, and Santana Moss is once again fantasy relevant. Here is the Brotherhood's 1ST LOOK WEEK 3 WR RANKS: 1) Miles... read more

  Our First Look at Tight Ends may provide you with some insight as to possible waiver wire gems.  Many of the top TE reception leaders are big names, but there are a few moving quickly up the charts that may provide you with some great opportunities going forward, especially for BYE Week fillers!   Notice that Aaron Hernandez (TE-NEP) has made the top 10 this week.  He's a little known TE who plays more like a Wide Out, and his numbers reflect just that.  His season total for Yards after the Catch (YAC) is an impressive 14.6!  He currently ranks 5th amoung TE's in Total Yards.  And with Brady looking to throw him the rock, he should do well going forward.  Another impressive TE... read more
