1ST LOOK: Week 3 WR Ranks

Posted by in 1st Look,Fantasy Advice,Rank,Ranks,Wide Receivers on Sep 20th 2011 and last modified on Sep 23rd 2011. (Print This)

Faith RewardedWEEK 2 STUDS: Jeremy Maclin:  13 receptions, 171 receiving yards, 2 TDs. We advertised Maclin as a more complete receiver than DeSean Jackson. On Sunday night - he made that quite evident. Maclin carried much concern come draft day, but should repay those who overlooked the risk. Illness will not deprive you of talent. He’ll be a stud moving forward. Vincent Jackson: 10 receptions, 172 receiving yards, 2 TDs.  The Patriots completely shut down Antonio Gates and forced Malcom Floyd out of the game with an injury. Jackson picked up the slack posting stellar stats after a Week 1 flop. Opposing defenses will continue to have to pick their poison in terms of which Charger play-maker they attempt to stop. Miles Austin: 9 receptions, 143 receiving yards, 3 TDs. We've seen both Austin and Dez perform incredibly already this season. If this offense can ever get healthy, the sky is the limit. Dez... read more

Week 2: WR Ranks

Posted by in Fantasy Advice on Sep 16th 2011 (Print This)

Mike Wallace has voiced that he is on a quest to reach 2,000 receiving yards in 2011. The young speedster has set the bar quite high for himself - but the third-year flier has good reason. He averaged 19.4 yards per catch in his rookie season, only to trump it in 2010 with a 21 YPC stat. He's topped 100 yards in seven out of his last ten regular season starts.  He's matured from simply a deep-threat, to an all-over-the-field talent. He does not attract the attention of the prototypical beast receivers, but don't underestimate 4.33 speed combined with a quarterback who loves to throw it deep. 2,000 is unrealistic, but 1,500 is no reach! (For all you Snapple fact nerds out there, his real name is: BURNell Michael Wallace - He should burn the Seahawks secondary on Sunday as the Steelers look for redemption). Calvin Johnson tops our list but Andre and... 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. Last-minute stat projections and ranks are here... 1) Andre Johnson - HOU - WR RUSH ATT RUSH YDS RUSH TD REC REC YDS REC TD 0 0 0 101 1468 10 No surprises here. Johnson deserves... read more

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

Week 17 WR Ranks

Posted by in Fantasy Advice,Ranks,Wide Receivers on Dec 30th 2010 and last modified on Jan 2nd 2011. (Print This)

Week 17 Super Bowls pose many problems. There will be few rosters that  are at 100%. With some team's playoff paths already determined, certain studs may see the sidelines. Fear not, for there is always a silver lining. True, Jeremy Maclin and DeSean Jackson may fail to produce, but the door is open for Jason Avant to see more snaps. Other intriguing names include Jerome Simpson, Andre Caldwell, Michael Crabtree, Danario Alexander, Blair White and Jason Hill. If Andre Johnson can't go, look for Jacoby Jones to step up once again. Reggie Wayne tops the list as Indy has been playing playoff games for weeks now. Expect Mario Manningham to produce with both Steve Smith and Hakeem Nicks on the sidelines. The Giants still have a shot at the playoffs. Manningham will be their best aerial weapon. 1) Reggie Wayne - IND - WR, vs. Tennessee Titans,... read more

2010 July WR Ranks

Posted by in Fantasy Advice,Ranks,Wide Receivers on Jul 6th 2010 and last modified on Jul 15th 2010. (Print This)

The Brotherhood continues to preach that Fantasy titles are won with a strong WR corps. Andre Johnson is the definitive Number One, but the rest of the top 10 is up for grabs. In a deep league? Here's 100-plus pass-catching options heading into the 2010 season. 1) Andre Johnson - HOU - WR Stands alone at the top. The definitive No. 1. 2) Miles Austin - DAL - WR The Dallas offense should be as explosive as ever. From 09 sleeper to top 5 prospect. A full season as the starter should reward fantasy owners with elite stats. 3) .Brandon Marshall - MIA - WR Marshall could very well win the reception title and turn Miami away from their wild-cat ways. 4) Randy Moss - NEP - WR Welker may start the season on the PUP list. Brady's in a contract year. Moss will... read more

292 Yards in His Last Two Outings. Will Gore keep it up vs. the Bears on Thursday Night?

The Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers are the first teams to grace us with Thursday night football.  Both teams are looking to rebound after suffering loses last Sunday.  They have similar styles of play so this should be a good one.  The Bears come into the game with a 4-4 record, 3 games behind the Vikings and tied with the Packers in the NFC North.  The 49ers enter the contest at 3-5.  They are currently second in the weak NFC West only trailing Arizona by two games.  Heading into the season both of these teams were known for having a run first system.  They each have solid every down running backs but lack elite play makers at the wide receiver position.  However, as the season has progressed both... read more

WR Draft Kit – Ranks and Write Ups

Posted by in Fantasy Advice,Free Draft Kit,Wide Receivers on Aug 12th 2009 and last modified on Aug 24th 2009. (Print This)

Wide Receiver week rolls on as our player profiles and projections are released. Elite route-runners have infiltrated the first round and dominate the 2cnd and third. The position is topped with stud performers, but the talent pool dries quickly. The First Round was once completely dominated by backs. Times have changed. The RBBC has super-saturated the position leaving few true workhorses and increasing wide receiver stock. With the majority of teams moving to a time-share style of running the ball, the quantity of runners has sky-rocketed, but the quality has been compromised. Every-down backs are a dying breed. With the second half of the first round being filled with an abundance of risky running back plays, ‘09 mock trends suggest that many are opting to go with a top-notch WR. Running back is an injury prone position, and is now one of the easiest roster spots to fill.  Most leagues have adopted some... read more
