Week Seven Reaches

Note: Players are in no particular order. Quarterback None that would qualify as reaches. Running Back Laurence Maroney vs. Tampa Bay – We know he’s not a good back, but the Buccaneer run defense is almost non-competitive. If you were ever going to start Maroney, this would be the matchup to do so as your #3 RB. BenJarvus Green-Ellis vs. Tampa Bay – This game should be a blowout and Green-Ellis could pile up the carries in the second half when the game is out of reach. He’s a more decisive runner than Maroney, so start him as your #3 RB. Jonathan Stewart vs. Buffalo – The Bills are very small in their front-seven and the Panthers have one of the NFL’s biggest offensive lines. Stewart has been up and down this season, but he should be way up in this game. Start him as your #3 RB as the coaches continue to call running plays so they can get it out of QB Jake Delomme’s hands.

    I spent most of today updating our keeper rankings on the site, taking into account all the free agent and player movement activity. It’s an extremely tedious and time-consuming process, especially when there’s significant movement, but that’s not really my point here today. One of my points is how the QB position in dire straights. It’s [...] […]

  • Fantasy Football Glossary of Terms March 12, 2010
    I’ve been meaning to do this for a while, and while things are heating up, it’s still really early, so I’m trying to bang out some “evergreen” content before things really get hot. We posted a guide to creating and running an Auction League this week (check the bottom left column on the subscriber homepage), [...] […]

  • Free Agency Thoughts March 9, 2010
    It’s been a fairly quiet and pretty anticlimactic free agent period so far.
