2011 Draft Kit QB Ranks & Write Ups

Posted by in Fantasy Advice,Projections,Quarterbacks,Rank,Ranks on Aug 26th 2011 and last modified on Sep 3rd 2011. (Print This)

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

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

Rain, Snow or Shine!  You can always count on Brady.

Brady was almost unstoppable in the snow against the Bears on Sunday.  He should be the clear cut favorite to win the MVP award this season. Rodgers going down with a concussion was an absolute killer for fantasy teams.  If you somehow managed to pull out a win despite his lack of production you should probably look in a different direction this week.  As of this moment he is doubtful to face the Patriots.  If you did survive Week 14 and are in need of a solid signal caller this week you should consider Jon Kitna and Jason Campbell.  Both players are at home and have favorable match ups.  Vick threw for 270 yards Sunday night against the Cowboys.  A whopping 210 of them went to DeSean Jackson.  Vicks agilityhas allowed him to remain in the pocket long enough to let his receivers get free and break... read more

Week 14: QB Ranks and Writeups(Fantasy Playoff Edition)

Peyton Manning proved yet again how important it is to have an elite signal caller leading your team.  After Thursday nights outing Peyton owner's have the luxury of heading into Sunday with a comfortable lead. Again, it's why we preach the importance of drafting or trading for a top quarterback.  We know we can rely on Vick, Brady, Rivers, Rodgers and Brees, but what about all the others?  After these five signal callers can we really trust anyone.  This week Kyle Orton and Joe Flacco make solid starts but that doesn't mean they don't come with question marks. How will the coaching change in Denver affect Orton and the offense? Can we expect more Knowshon Moreno? In Baltimore will Flacco continue to air it out against a bad Texans secondary? Or will the Ravens lean on Ray Rice... 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

1st Look: Week 14 QB Ranks

Look for Rodgers to bounce back in a big way against the Bills

The fantasy playoffs kick off this week!  Your playoffs hopes will most likely be tied to your signal callers performance over the next few weeks.  Yes you need a well balanced offense and three or four studs, but the fact remains, you'll only go as far as your quarterback will take you.  One sub par performance could very well sink your team along with your playoff hopes.  I know Eli Manning and Kyle Orton probably hurt a lot of teams last week.  They absolutely killed me in more than one league.  It's why I constantly preach the importance of having an elite signal caller.  If you own one of the top six quarterbacks in these rankings there is a very good chance you'll go deep into your playoffs and probably take home a title.  If you aren't fortunate enough to own one of the top six it doesn't... 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

Week 13 is upon us.  In 99% of fantasy leagues week 13 symbolizes the final week before playoffs begin.  If you haven't locked up a playoff spot yet and enter the week needing a win, you'll be sure to have a few sleepless nights.  Just remember when your lying in bed steering up at your ceiling.  The anticipation and sleepless nights are why we play and love the game.  Would you rather be the owner who's out of the hunt, but sleeps like a baby?  Me neither.  If your still fighting for a playoff spot enjoy the moment.  Don't over think roster moves this week.  Now isn't the time to get cute.  Start your studs and stick to whats worked all year.  One poor decision can end your season and leave you kicking yourself until next year.  That's a long time to have a pit in... 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
