Re: AFC Championship Game

After watching the Jets terrorize the Pat's O-line last week, I'd have to think Rex Ryan will have some nice blitz packages for the Steelers' beat-up O-line. I could see Big Ben getting hit all day in this game. Revis has been playing out of his mind for the last month too. But with Polamalu playing...

Re: Terrell Thomas

Thomas is not a top 10 DB for me, and I think he's a sell-high guy right now. I'd much rather have a play-making Safety that'll get you 80-90 solo tackles over the top CB. Don't get me wrong - Thomas is good, but I'd much rather have someone like Eric Berry, LaRon Landry, TJ Ward, or Tyvon Branch. ...

Trade for Garrard or Brady?

I've lost Romo, Henne got benched, and Campbell is on bye so I need a QB for this week. I'm 5-4 with the 3rd most points scored and I like my chances to make the playoffs. I've been offered: Tom Brady for Cedric Benson and a 2011 3rd round pick and David Garrard for Fred Jackson and a 2011 4th round...

Re: Finley Out?

From Rotoworld: Jermichael Finley's timetable to return from knee surgery is actually more like 6-10 weeks , not the 3-6 weeks as originally reported, according to the National Football Post's Brad Biggs. It sounds like the surgery included a full meniscus repair, as opposed to a routine "scope...

UNC - Austin dismissed, Quinn/Little ineligible

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=5673405

All from the agent scandal, wow...

Think it will have any effect on their draft stock? Quinn could be a top 5 pick.

Re: Hardesty out for season?

I picked up Hillis, he's more versatile and I think he'll be on the field more. He's a good pass catching RB and will probably get goal-line carries.

Re: Hardesty out for season?

It's this type of stuff that gets me totally fed up with fantasy football and makes me wonder why I even bother. So far I've lost hardesty, avery, and Michael bush. Setting up for another fun year. Whoopie. I'm in the same boat in 1 league too. I can only hope Bush will have a strong 2nd half of th...

Hardesty out for season?

From Adam Schefter's twitter:
Early diagnosis on Browns rookie RB Montario Hardesty: torn ACL. More exams today to confirm the news, but a blow to the Browns.

There goes my 1st round pick :x

Re: Which free league service provider do you prefer?

If you are handy with HTML/CSS type stuff then you can actually create a website and host it in the ESPN LM note. I have done this for my league and it's pretty awesome, you can add pics, videos, and chat boxes. Plus you can have links leading to power rankings, game of the week, league records, and...

Re: Defence drafting stategies?

Wait until the end, team defense's change so much from year to year. If you drafted a Titans or Giants D with a high draft pick, you were looking for a new defense on waivers by Week 4 or 5. On the other hand, who pegged the Saints as a top 10 defense last season? Too fickle to waste a high pick on,...

Re: Need LB advice

I agree that Cooper and Johnson are the best for now - but keep an eye on Jamar Williams. With WLB Thomas Davis out, it will be interesting to see if the Panthers keep Beason at MLB and play Williams at WLB or if they shift Beason to WLB and play Dan Connor at MLB. If Jamar Williams gets to start, h...

Re: Need LB advice

I'd think about cutting Witherspoon, he is up there in age and has Rennie Curran (one of Spencer's mancrushes) waiting behind him. I'd also look into getting a new DE - with the retirement of Jason Ferguson, the Dolphins have moved Randy Starks to nose tackle and his production should take a hit.

Re: NBA Dynasty Rankings

I would say so, less shots for each of them now. LeBron drops, but he's still a top 3 guy for me - just not #1 anymore. Top 10 to me would be: 1. Kevin Durant 2. Chris Paul 3. LeBron James 4. Danny Granger 5. Dwight Howard 6. Carmelo Anthony 7. Deron Williams 8. Stephen Curry 9. Tyreke Evans 10. Kob...
