It would seem that for some we are entering into unlucky week 13. For most of us we are a week away from the start of our playoff runs. The things that have unfolded in week 12, make week 13 a potential make or break week. Not necessarily because of wins and losses but because of who plays where. Not since week 1 of the NFL season has there been this many unknowns heading into a week let alone a week before the playoffs starts. (Playoffs!?!) Frank Gore reportedly has a broken hip and will be out for the season. Nice news to wake up to this morning if you are a Gore owner. Brian Westbrook becomes a must own in every league, as does Anthony Dixon. Westbrook has the potential to allow an owner to steal a league title.... read more

Editor's Note: Fantasy Football Brothers Will Be Releasing Ranks On Wednesday, With An Injury/News Updated Version On Friday. The Week of Thanksgiving is my favorite week of the year (No Offense Christmas.) There is plenty to celebrate between family,friends,football and food. Though you can easily have too much of three out of those four things, you can never have too much football. Before getting down to business, I would just like to share my thanks and appreciation of a few things. I am extremely grateful for all of my fellow Fantasy Brothers. They have absolutely busted their asses this year to make this site, one of the best kept secrets in Fantasy Football. I am grateful for my family and of course my lovely,beautiful girlfriend who not only supports me, but puts up with the 9 month... read more

Every Friday we unleash our final ranks of the week. We add thoughts and  insights to go along with any other concerns to help you the reader dominate your league. Every season we talk about the days when a Running back could tote the rock 300 times or more in a season. Since the 2007 season there have been 6 running backs or less that have had 300 or more carries. 2007  there were 6 RBs with 300+, 2008 5 RBs and 2009 6 RBs. What is my point you ask? As of right now there are ten backs that if things stay on course, could have  300 or more carries. Here are the projected carry totals for the aforementioned ten backs. Adrian Peterson 350, Chris Johnson 347, Steven Jackson 341, Frank Gore... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's continues our march towards the fantasy playoffs. The season is in full swing and we aren't any closer to having an answer who the top teams in the NFL are. Last week yielded no helpful hints, as the Dallas Cowboys continue their slide and aren't even worthy of being called America's team. Wade Phillips days are numbered as the Cowboys are getting flushed down the proverbial toilet of the NFC East. They were manhandled by the Jacksonville Jaguars and David Garrard in Week 8. The Detroit Lions showed that they are headed in the right direction as a franchise against the now embroiled Donovan McNabb who was yanked in favor of Rex Grossman to run the two minute drill because McNabb is out of shape. Mike Shanahan has brought this on himself and attracted unwanted attention by making a dumb... read more

The Brotherhood takes a look at the Week 7 Projections. Hopefully everyone is taking advantage of the Eight Ball to make those hard to decide lineup questions, on top of asking the Brother's any questions you might have concerning fantasy football The injury bug has taken a bite out of fantasy rosters in Week 7 and this is where solid roster depth comes into play. We might have to rethink that whole depth doesn't win fantasy championships after this week. The defensive players have been hit hard by fines due to concussions and certain players such as the Steeler's James Harrison are said to be mulling retirement. While we don't buy into that, defensive guys have come out and said they won't change the way they play and will deal with the fines brought down by the NFL. The NFL is going to act like they care in... read more

2010 has been a little different from previous years.  Usually we have a good idea of what we can expect from teams and players around the fourth week of the season.  This year has been a little different.  Heading into week 6 there are no undefeated teams remaining and we have witnessed an uncanny amount of player movement.  Hopefully, things have settled down and we can finally get a better idea of what we can expect going forward. Due to the uncertainty surrounding some of these players, this weeks waiver wire could be loaded with guys who have the opportunity to make a substantial impact on your team.  It may look like some of these players are obvious names, but they're not.  Some high impact players could be available on your leagues waiver wire.  One or two of these players... read more

A top 200 ranking is an essential tool that every fantasy owner should use to help dominate their draft.  It helps owners gauge a players overall value instead of his positional value.  As usual, we went a little bit deeper and ranked the top 240 players.  We feel it was important to rank every player that could become relevant at some point during the season.  I left out defenses and kickers because my colleague Rob has already covered them extensively in his positional write ups.  We will continue to update these rankings as the season approaches. Top 240 1) Chris Johnson - TEN - RB 2) Adrian Peterson - MIN - RB 3) Maurice Jones-Drew - JAC - RB 4) Ray Rice - BAL - RB 5) Frank Gore - SFO - RB 6) Andre Johnson - HOU - WR 7) Aaron Rodgers - GRE - QB 8) Michael Turner - ATL - RB 9) Drew Brees - NOR -... read more

The Brotherhood has been hard at work with our draft kit roll out. Last week we ranked all of the RBs and this is our combined ranks.

We will be updating our positional ranks early and often as we head towards the start of the season.  And as a note to the reader, even though there are some injuries already, we are not going to move the players up and down the ranks due to a minor injury.  *Asterisks Are Next... read more
