There were alot of talented runners to leave the college ranks last year, but that doesn't mean the cupboard is bare by any means. There is a solid mix of productive runners and backs looking to start making their mark on the college game. That means the depth of talent in this year's class will provide fantasy owner's the chance to build a stable of backs or wait and build their team around other areas that don't provide as much talent down the rankings (wide receiver). It would be wise for fantasy owner's to build their team around the quarterback-wide receiver positions first as a top notch signal caller is invaluable and the wide receiver class is somewhat thin this season. The running back position offers value all the way down the rankings. The truth is a talented back like Jacquizz Rodgers is not that different from a... read more
The 2010 NFL Draft is right around the corner, well not really, but to diehard football fans' it is. There are some changes to the format for the draft and while I may not agree with it, I can see why the NFL is doing it. The NFL Draft has evolved into a huge event and has become a rite of passage in April. The format for the 75th NFL Draft is as follows: Thursday, April 22, 2010>7:30 p.m.--11:00 p.m.< Friday, April 23, 2010>6:30 p.m.--11:00 p.m.< Saturday, April 24, 2010>10:00 a.m.--6:00 p.m.< My hope is that the new plan backfires on the NFL and viewership suffers, then maybe they will move it back to the original format where friends can make a weekend out of it. Anyways, enough from me, let's get to the mock. This mock draft includes juniors who I think... read more

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
