The 2009 NFL Draft kicks off Saturday at 4 P.M. All eyes here at Fantasy Brothers will be watching the draft, or as we like to call it having Christmas in July. Every player selected can have an impact in 09, and the Brotherhood will already be adding these players into our Free Draft Kit. We are always scouting who could potentially affect your fantasy draft, and your fantasy team come September, and beyond. Any questions or comments for us here at Fantasy Brothers are always welcomed.... # TEAM BILL ROB PAUL SHAUN 1 DETROIT QB MATT STAFFORD QB MATT STAFFORD QB MATT STAFFORD QB MATT STAFFORD 2 ST.

The combine has ended, players are prepping for their Pro Days on their respected campuses, and the picture of the draft is starting to play out through free agency. Let's take a look at the new mock and see who has risen' and fallen' down the board. 1.) Detroit-Matthew Stafford, QB, Georgia-The Lions appear committed to taking a quarterback now that Jon Kitna is in Dallas and Dan Orlovsky is in Houston. They have cleared room for this pick and Stafford now becomes the clear cut favorite. While I think the Lions would be wise to go in another direction, such as offensive tackle, I can't see them going into the season with Drew Stanton as the only backup to Daunte Culpepper. 2.) St. Louis-Jason Smith, OT, Baylor-I have said it before in other mocks, Orlando Pace is nearing the end, and the offensive line is a major concern due to age and... read more

The tour of all 32 NFL teams continues today with visits with two playoff teams in 08. Our first stop brings us to the Super Bowl runner ups the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals are still dealing with the huge distraction that is WR Anquan Boldin.  In Baltimore the Ravens look to rebuild on the defensive side of the ball. The defection of their Defensive Coordinator, and players favorite Rex Ryan and LB Bart Scott could effect the entire team. At Fantasy Brothers we look forward to hearing  your questions and comments. NFL TEAM: ARIZONA CARDINALS MOVES THAT MATTER: The Cards resigned QB Kurt Warner after briefly flirting with San Francisco.... Warner returns to a team that has some questions on the offensive side of the ball.... The biggest question continues to be the status of WR Anquan Boldin..... Boldin pouted in the NFC championship game and was more concerned about his... read more

The 2009 NFL Draft is getting close, and with the combine on February 18th, more questions will be answered, such as "Just how fast is Michael Crabtree?" While we expect more players to rise and fall with forty and shuttle times, along with bench press reps and vertical measurements, we do expect the picture to become a little less blurry as teams start to focus in on needs, as seven of the first ten teams are in a rebuilding phase. Remember there are "sexy" picks and there are needs, ask Matt Millen what a "sexy" pick is and he will say it is why he doesn't have a job. 1.) Detroit-Jason Smith, OT, Baylor-Smith moves into the top spot as he has the athleticism and the quick feet to take on NFL pass rushers. He is a converted tight end who is ahead of the curve on his run blocking as well as... read more
