A Myguru Enhancement

Just wanted to chime and let people know that now, when you login to Myguru now or view projections, leaders, etc. The information should be broken down by team now, as opposed to last year, when your players from your various teams were all grouped together. So for example, when you go to projections, and toggle through your pre-inputted teams, only the players on the current team you are viewing should be highlighted (in yellow/organge). This is a nice enhancement and was one of the top things requested this year.

Funny plug for me and the site today on Sirius/XM NFL Radio

I'm listening to Sirius/XM NFL Radio Channel 124 with my boy Adam Schein, and Solomon Wilcots, who  I also know and worked with at NFL Network for a year. Some guy calls up and asks them a fantasy question, and Schein and Wilcots proceed to give me and the site an incredible but also funny plug. It's funny because of Schein's style, which is boisterous to say the least. Take a listen using the link below. fantasyguru.com on sirius

Another mock expert draft today

I have yet another mock expert draft today for another magazine, so I'll be posting the results as they occur. This is a 12-team draft, and it's NOT a PPR league. I draft 10th, so it will be interesting to see if it's viable for my to stick with the WR-WR plan drafting that late; it sure was in a PPR draft earlier this month. 3:16: Wow, first two picks Chris Johnson and Randy Moss. Surprised they were both there, can't ask for more than that picking 12th. Calvin was temping, but Moss has Brady. Big difference. 3:26: Not an easy call with ...

It’s time to talk Favre

You may have noticed that we have yet to rank and project stats for QB Brett Favre - but this week we took a step in that direction by finally downgrading Viking QB Sage Rosenfels, who we have projected to beat Tarvaris Jackson out. That was the first step in adjusting for Favre, and we may soon have to go all the way and right the following: Brett Favre (QB, Min) On a personal level, I've been a Viking fan since I was about seven years old, which is odd because I lived in Brooklyn, NY, and right around the time I ...

Podcast Talking Points

We're doing a fresh podcast on Thursday morning with myself, Adam Caplan, and Greg Cosell, and since this is a quiet time of the year, I thought we'd break down some of the key issues fantasy owners need to think about heading into camp and the 2009 season. I'm throwing them out there now in case anyone reads this before 10am tomorrow and has any other topcis for discussion. Wells vs. Hightower - How do the players compare? Raven Running Game - What do they want to do, and do they want to change anything about it from last year, and how ...

  • Thoughts on Various Players-Running Backs June 29, 2009
    Here’s the next round of random thoughts, this time on running backs: Felix Jones/Dallas Cowboys - Did you realize he had a 8.9 per average on his 30 carries before he got hurt. I know that’s a limited amount of work, but watching him last season it was easy to see how special he was in [...]

  • Early Thoughts on Various Players-Quarterbacks June 23, 2009
    I’ll be posting random thoughts by position leading up to the start of training camps in late July:    Quarterback    Aaron Rodgers/Green Bay Packers - Did you realize he threw for 28 TDs and totaled 32 TDs (4 rushing TDs) last season? Think about it. He did most of that on a bad right shoulder. Amazing. And all [...]
