The Top-10 is filled with favorable match-ups. The Green Bay/Detroit game will leave fantasy owners quite thankful. The aerial statistics that will be accumulated in that game could break holiday game day records. There is no receiver hotter than Jordy Nelson. He plays opposite an elite talent, while being on the catching end of the league's best arm. His receiver tree has all the branches. He can move the chains, stretch the field, and most importantly - find pay dirt. Expect bounce-back weeks for Greg Jennings and Calvin Johnson who found themselves out shined by their supporting cast in Week 11. Roddy White appeared to return to relevance last week. The Falcon receiver has been an overall disappointment, providing labile stats throughout the season. With Julio Jones nagging injury struggles - White will step up when it counts.

This is an updated version of my quarterback ranks and write ups.  I included each players average draft position or ADP, to give you a better idea of were each of these players is being drafted.  Hopefully it helps you form a solid draft strategy that will enable you to maximize value for every pick. I've been preaching the importance of owning a solid signal caller in my articles for years.  It's the engine that runs your team. This is the reason why I always recommend stacking your roster with as many top signal callers as possible.  By stacking as many chips as you can in your favor, you are giving yourself better odds. With those better odds you have a greater probability of winning.  Lucky for us, there is more talent at this position than there has been in years.  If you miss out... read more

2011 Draft Kit QB Ranks & Write Ups

Fantasy Football Brothers begins our Free Draft Kit roll out. We know we have released our draft kit a little later than previous years and there is a reason for that. Due to the lockout and free agency frenzy we decided to wait and see how it all shook out. We know everyone's time is limited so why make our readers read a bunch of different versions of our draft kit and waste your time. Or do what we did and wait ten days after the dust has settled a little bit and give you the reader a much more informed look at fantasy nation. The NFL is a quarterback driven league.  Over the years the game has evolved and transformed from a run heavy game to a pass heavy game. The NFL is also more passer friendly than ever... read more

With the quarterback, running back, and tight end positions appearing deeper than ever, landing an elite wide receiver is essential. There is a clear-cut Top 8, but then the questions start flying. If you find yourself quivering over selecting a questionable running back in the middle to late first round, a stud wide-out may be the way to go. With a youth movement at the quarterback position, and the tight end pool deepening - solid prospects are falling to the later rounds. Running back has become the easiest position in all of fantasy to fill. Stud pass-catchers are an endangered species. Be sure to draft one before they're extinct. Calvin, Fitz, and VJack are on the rise. Jennings and Wayne on the fall.

2011 Draft Kit WR Ranks & Write Ups

Posted by in Fantasy Advice,Free Draft Kit,Projections,Ranks,Wide Receivers on Aug 15th 2011 and last modified on Sep 3rd 2011. (Print This)

1) Andre Johnson - HOU - WR No surprises here. Johnson deserves the No. 1 spot. Owners may opt for Roddy White or Calvin Johnson with A.J. coming off of an injury riddled season, but Johnson combines the physical tools of Megatron, with the consistency of White. Kevin Walter and Jacoby Jones have failed to provide Johnson with a legitimate wing-man, but the return of Owen Daniels and Houston’s ground game should diffuse defensive attention. We expect a clean bill of health and one of his most dominating seasons to date. If you find yourself hesitating over a running back in the mid to late slots in round 1, Johnson is a low-risk/high-reward pick. Draft him without concern. 2) Roddy White - ATL - WR: It’s hard to rank anyone... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's welcomes you to the end of the road. If you have made it here, congratulations, pat yourself on the back and tell everyone you know that you are in the championship game. Okay, skip that last part, because frankly, no one cares but you and us. The truth is if you made it this far, relish the feeling, because it's almost like the SuperBowl in that teams just don't go back regularly. Not everyone can be the New England Patriots or Pittsburgh Steelers, there has to be a doormat team every year. Look at the Carolina Panthers, they went to a SuperBowl and I don't think they will be going back for a long, long time. The same can be said about the Seattle Seahawks, they once went to the big... read more

Week 15: Player Projections (Playoff Edition)

Posted by in Projections on Dec 16th 2010 and last modified on Dec 18th 2010. (Print This)

Week 14 has come and gone and for many of us it was an extreme disappointment. The fact that Jay Feely, a kicker, a kicker for Pete's sake outscored Aaron Rodgers and Adrian Peterson combined is a complete travesty. It was another weird chapter in the NFL Season, but in fantasy terms it stayed true to the story that has played out all year. What do I mean you ask? I mean if you had a lineup of Aaron Rodgers, Adrian Peterson, Arian Foster, Greg Jennings, Brandon Lloyd, Jacob Tamme, Mason Crosby, and any defense, you probably lost out to a chump that had Jason Campbell, Tim Hightower, Ryan Torain, Santana Moss, Derrick Mason, Jason Witten, Jay Feely, and any defense. It was that type of week and it's one I would like to forget. Unfortunately, I can't. I can't stand the fact... read more

Week 14: Player Projections

Posted by in Projections on Dec 8th 2010 and last modified on Dec 9th 2010. (Print This)

Fantasy Football Brother's rolls into the playoffs after a long season that was beyond crazy. We all need to take a quick breath to collect ourselves, then it's time to get back to work. This is where all your hard work as an owner pays off. This is why we play the game, whether for pride or for the love of money, it's what we do from here on out that matters. The one notable thing about doing the player projections is noticing how many player's in the NFL are hurt and of those players how many are fantasy stars. Fantasy owner's who have had their "studs" go down will have to rely on the waiver wire, which is why we are here. We have recommended player's throughout the season that have helped owner's get through injuries. It's what we do and we love... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's rolls into Week 13 and we present our player projections. There are many notable names missing due to injury and if you have Vincent Jackson or Frank Gore, you'll see they are not included in the projections this week. Which leads me to Jackson. How many owner's had him in their starting lineup after being patient with him all year? All season long he took up a roster spot, yet we stuck by him hoping to eventually cash in on the promise of having him back come fantasy playoffs. Now, his calf injury will set him back some and I have to wonder if he is really injured or if this is just a big F.U. to general manager A.J. Smith? Either way if you started Jackson last week, you came up disappointed, myself included. Frank Gore on the other hand was... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's heads into Week 12 and we hope everyone had a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. The slate of games was pretty decent and the best game of the night belonged to the Cowboys and Saints. It will be interesting to see if the Cowboys mail it in for the rest of the season or if they decide to play the role of spoiler. If you haven't taken advantage of our services now is the time as we head towards the fantasy playoffs. You don't want to sacrifice all of your league's riches because you didn't want to pay the price of a six pack at the store. Well some might, but for most of us it's what keeps the better half at bay for another year. The fact that you can show him/her that money can actually be made is priceless. Buy... read more
