Fantasy Football Brother's welcomes owner's to what is the second round in most league's playoff system. The owner's that had the nice, comfy bye weeks are now on alert. There is nothing better than knocking one of these team's off their soapbox. If you are one of the lucky who was watching from the sidelines last week or spent the day of football with your significant other not paying attention to the games, you've been warned. You will be hunted by lower seed teams and we here at Fantasy Football Brother's are the secret weapon. Now, last week was again dominated by Rob Gronkowski who set the TD record for TE's and proved that he is simply a mismatch. He's also a hard man to bring down as evidenced by the Redskins tackling last week. He is again the top ranked TE going into Denver this week. Many... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's takes our final look at the tight end position for Week 9. There wasn't a whole lot of movement up and down the ranks, besides us still probably overvaluing Jermichael Finley. Jimmy Graham nabs the top spot, it's getting to be pretty common to see his name there now days and we are running out of Jimmy Graham pictures. Jason Witten gets the #2 slot and let's hope the Cowboy's offense looks sharper than it did last week vs. the Philadelphia Eagles. It can't get any worse, right? There was a Brent Celek (Brotherhood favorite) sighting last week, but the Brother's love the potential of Jake Ballard. While watching tape of Jake Ballard in the lab, Bill wondered if there was anyone who plays the game more stiff than Ballard. I retorted that he has a great set of hands and... read more

My boss came to me the other day and said why would you tout yourself to subscribers we already have who can see the First Look Series. He said the point is to try and get new subscribers who can reap the benefits of all our hard work and research. So, this is basically what was written in the First Look. If you are already one of our loyal reader's, we thank you and hope the season is going well: The tight end position possibly gets Antonio Gates back this week, but we remain cautiously optimistic. The position saw the full return of Aaron Hernandez in Week 6 and he didn't disappoint. Jimmy Graham continues to be a beast and while we don't like to gloat, it's safe to say, "We told you so." Here's what we said about Graham in our Draft Kit: 6) Jimmy... read more

The NFL is said to be a passing league. Fantasy Football Brother's has said that before the saying became a cliche. We will go a step further. The NFL is again becoming a tight end league. As NFL offenses continue to spread the field, the tight end position offers the best chance for teams to create mismatches in the middle of the field. NFL teams and offensive coordinatoors are starting to utilize this as defenses try to keep up. In truth, they can't. One reason they can't is because these guys are athletic freaks that linebackers can't keep up with and corners can't out muscle them for position. Rob Gronkowski holds on to the top spot. A big reason why is that the Jets are reeling and their linebacker play has been less than disappointing. In short, there is no one to cover Gronkowski in the middle... read more

It's Week 4 in the NFL and Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at the rankings in our First Look Series. The list this week is led by the Packers' Jermichael Finley who had 3 TD's last week and looks to build on that production going forward. We had the Saints' Jimmy Graham in the top spot last week and he didn't disappoint fantasy owner's. Speaking of disappointment, Antonio Gates owner's were feeling the loss, hopefully you found a good replacement for his production, say the Steelers' Heath Miller or the Bills' Scott Chandler. Fantasy owner's should continue to monitor the status of the Charger's Antonio Gates heading into the week. This Friday these ranks will be solidified for Week 4. Here are the First Look Ranks: 1) Jermichael Finley - GRE - TE, vs. Denver Broncos, Sun 4:15 PM 2) Rob Gronkowski - NEP - TE, at Oakland Raiders, Sun 4:15 PM 3)... read more

The tight end position has turned into one of the deepest positions in the NFL.

When another owner wastes his pick on a TE, it just means somebody you like or need will... read more
