Two more guys to get now

1. Jeremy Maclin (WR, Phi) - Our Adam Caplan is at practice, and he says Kevin Curtis looks bad. Maclin's still a work in progress, but don't be surprised at all if he's starting and being targeted often later in the season. He's very talented. Heck, I like him THIS WEEK against the Bucs. 2. Hakeem Nicks (WR, NYG) - Those who guessed Manningham over Sims-Walker two weeks ago guessed wrong, and they may not even have a starter in Manningham. Manningham is flashy, but they drafted Nicks for a reason, and Nicks looks pretty good. He has good size and ...

In a keeper or dynasty league? Get Malcolm Floyd

Every once in a while, I have an epiphany on a player, and often I'm correct with the idea. I have one right now with Malcolm Floyd, who is currently toiling and being wasted behind Chris Chambers in SD. Floyd is a free agent in 2010, and if there is a new collective bargaining deal struck, he will be unrestricted. This guy can play. He has very good size at 6'5" and he can run extremely well. He's great and making contested catches and jumping to get the ball at its highest point from a defender. He's obviously unproven as a ...

Dr. D checking in on injuries

I received an e-mail with some injury thoughts on some current guys from our Dr. D, our resident physician and fantasy freak. He had some good insight on some of these injured players, so I thought I'd share. Anthony Gonzalez/Felix Jones - Like with what I said last year about Sidney Rice, the recovery for these injuries is completely variable.  Some athletes start feeling "right" within a few weeks,and others take a very long time to get their proprioception (or position sense) back to normal.  If I had to guess, I would say that Gonzalez would be ...

  • Sirius Business: More T.O. and the Pats’ Passing Game August 3, 2010
    Of course, mere hours after I posted the last Sirius Business, WR Terrell Owens officially signed with Cincinnati, rendering most of what I wrote completely out of style. So naturally, we invited our good friend Joe Reedy back to Sirius XM Fantasy Football discuss what impact T.O. has had in his first week as a [...] […]
