Testimonials
“You guys were already the best going into 2008. But when you merged with footballinjuries.com and had access to the best injury and inside information, and then when you added Greg Cosell, a legit NFL scout with decades of experience and access to coaching tape, well, let’s just say it’s embarrassing how much better you are than EVERY other fantasy site on the web.”
F. Sweeney
“You led the charge over everyone on the web – and I mean everyone – when it came to Eddie Royal – and you were correct.”
C. Higgins
“The draft plan rules. Year after year that's all I need to really get ready for the draft. It never fails, follow the draft plan and you will have strong foundation for a successful season.”
R. Gallaher
“You really have something for everyone. If you’re into the numbers, you have a ton of articles and features that are numbers based. If you’re more of a hardcore football guy (or girl), you are by far the best in terms of your pure football coverage. If you just want news and injuries, you are the best. Strategy? You are also the best. IDP, podcasts, message boards, expert chats…you have something for everyone and have it ALL covered.”
L. Larsen
“I’ve been with you for 10 years and this was definitely your best season yet. The preseason guidance was eerily accurate as were your weekly projections. You’ve always been very good, but this year you were lights out.”
G. Masur
“The podcasts (Matchup with Greg Cosell, Sat. Preview and Sunday Review) tripled the value I got out of my subscription fee. Any questions I had regarding the tough lineup decisions were answered in the Saturday podcast. The Matchup podcast with Mr. Cosell was AWESOME.”
J. Bailey
“You injury reporting this year was amazing. Obviously that was due to the merger with footballinjuries.com. What a great move that was because it was obvious early on that you actually had some background and sources with your reporting, not just pure speculation as most other sites pass along.”
R. Shields
”The Sunday Content is a huge help. I don't have to listen through bad jokes from the TV guys to get who is and who isn't starting. Not to mention the fantasy impact of the injuries. AWESOME!”
T. Jones
“Your PPR draft strategy was right on. By getting players like Kurt Warner, Chris Johnson, and Dwayne Bowe later in the draft I was able to go 14-1. I'm in a competitive 12 team league and since subscribing I've finished 3rd, 1st, 2nd, and 1st this year. Won more than $2500 the last 3 years, well worth the subscription.”
G. Achimov
“I was racking my brain for two weeks about my draft spot, #8. Then, like a gift from the heavens, you did your “bottom feeding” article for those drafting at the bottom of Round One. I followed your plan of action to a tee and that is exactly why I drafted Calvin Johnson and Brandon Marshall in the 3rd and 4th. I also held off on a QB as suggested and got Jay Cutler. I also got Matt Forte and Steve Slaton based solely on your advice. The plan was so good, that I didn’t even need Larry Johnson, my #2 pick. Thanks for a dream season!”
D. Swain
“The draft tool was a key because it really helps with organization during a busy draft. This helped me steal Chris Johnson in all leagues and Kurt Warner in two of three. I used my winnings in five leagues to buy a home theater to watch the games next year . . . I had some money left over.”
J. Scholler
“I guess the one negative of your website which really is a positive is that you guys are too good. My teams were so deep based on your suggestions that lineup decisions were extremely difficult each and every week.”
D. Ravie
“When Darren McFadden had that monster game in week 2 I thought maybe you guys were wrong about him. But no, he was to be avoided…great call!”
R. Peterson
“I originally subscribed to save time and energy searching the web for my fill of free content and quickly came to acknowledge that the cost of the site more than pays for itself. Not only is all the info you could want in one place but the analysis is top notch.”
A. Fahrer
“Let me begin by saying that I LOVE the site, and all the hard work you do. I've been a member for a couple of years now, and the content it top notch. You were on point when it counted this year...THE DRAFT. Thanks to your draft content, I was able to assemble the most dominate, yet consistent team in the history of my league. Let's just say, when you’re in a PPR league and draft Andre Johnson, Steve Smith, Brandon Marshall (keeper), Frank Gore, Steve Slaton, and Thomas Jones you’re not going to lose many games.”
J .Robertson
“This year
I won it all, and the main reasons were my drafting Eddie Royal
and Chris Johnson in the middle and late rounds, which I
never would have done except for FantasyGuru. So thank you, thank
you, thank you for making people think I am smart.”
Rich Albert
“Just a quick
note of appreciation to you all. This is my third year to subscribe
and I've won my 10 team league championship in back to back years!
I also won my 12 team league last year and finished 3rd this year.
In the last two years, these winnings have grossed me $2625! Both
leagues are very competitive and without this site, I know I
couldn't have had this type of success. Feel free to use this
endorsement in any way.”
Rob Bittinger
“I just wanted to let you know that your site is the best. Nobody had the foresight to see Kurt Warner would beat out Matt Leinart, but you guys were all over it.”
Scott Cole
“I wanted to thank you guys again this year. I think the merger with Adam's service (footballinjuries.com) was great and I think we all benefited from that. You guys are continually improving the service each year and you guys truly do care about what the subscribers think about the service.”
A. Holewienko
“I can say, unequivocally, that this is the best fantasy resource out there. Your insights into drafting players/ranking players/and picking up players is far superior to anything else out there.”
L. Hampel
“Wow. What a great year. Your "stay away" picks were almost spot on and in many cases are more important that your insight on who to choose. (I stayed away from Rams and Seahawks in particular, and that was huge).”
E. Arnold
“As always, your material is exceptional, timely and usually very accurate. I was able to have an incredible draft to build my team with a solid foundation and then added the missing pieces, with your advice, via waiver claims as the season progressed. Extremely satisfied customer since 2001!”
J. Stewart
“The upside to subscribing to FantasyGuru.com is that it helps me win most of my leagues. The downside is that since my teams usually sit atop the standings I'm almost always at or near the bottom of our waiver order.”
R. Saviano
“Your service provides the best information and most timely information I've found available and I'm always looking. I've subscribed to other services only to cancel my subscription and ask for a refund because they don't come close to being the "best" service they all claim they are...fantasy guru is the only site that can claim to be the "best".
S. Myers
“I was a footballinjuries.com subscriber and have loved the merger. Having guys like Matt Forte and Chris Johnson on my roster and not Darren McFadden helped me finish strong. There is no doubt your service is well worth the cost. I would most likely be losing money if I wasn't a subscriber.”
B. Nybakken
“I have been participating in fantasy leagues since 1985, and this year your site really nailed it! Especially on rookie running backs! Great Job!”
J. Zander
“Your preseason "late draft pick strategy" article was on the money for me.......LenDale White-Jay Cutler- Eddie Royal (with my last round pick on draft night). Stack money!”
J. Gerndt
“During the 2006 and 2007 NFL seasons, I subscribed to five different FFL sites to test which was the best. None of my teams made the playoffs during those years, the first two year dry spell for me since 1998. In 2008, I subscribed to only one site...Fantasy Guru.com. Three of my four teams made the playoffs and I won one league crown. Fantasy Guru is THE best!”
D. Hardin
“Your up-to-the-minute article on Kurt Warner, how he would start the year ahead of Matt Leinart, allowed me draft him with the 2nd to last pick in the draft. When Braylon Edwards and Marques Coston went belly-up, well at least Edwards, I used Warner for a trade to get Steve Smith. Excellent. Your advice on taking Jay Cutler was outstanding. I got him in the 7th round and rode him to the Championship.”
M. Kenney
“I can honestly say that with the help of the folks from FantasyGuru.com I was able to cash in 75% of the leagues I participated in this year. I can not imagine any other site providing as much detailed accurate content as you guys do, nor will I be making the effort to find out. I plan on being a subscriber for life.”
J. Taylor
“Every single year, for seven years, my winnings have exceeded my entry fees by more than 100% based on my weekly use of FantasyGuru ... I use no other fantasy guidance sites.”
T. Giske
“Fantasy Guru is my only paid source of fantasy sports information now, and will continue to be for many years to come. I think the advice, columns, tools and strategy that you offer gives any serious fantasy player what he or she will need to put together their best team possible each and every week. Keep up the tedious work, it's the best.”
F. Matchett
“You made it very clear that you LOVED Calvin Johnson this year over and over again on the site this summer and that is exactly why I drafted him, so thank you.”
D. Bates
“Best source of information on the internet regarding fantasy football, bar none. The pulse of the league, as it relates to fantasy and injuries that impact the weekly results, is found on FantasyGuru.com. John and Adam are trusted sources, and they are dialed in 24/7. Case in point, early last summer, while all of the so-called 'experts' were proclaiming that Darren McFadden would be the next Adrian Peterson, John and Adam were super high on guys like Chris Johnson and Matt Forte. Their service has put my keeper league team, heading into our 16th season, in very favorable position to contend year in, year out, with great calls on guys like Adrian Peterson before his rookie year and the Johnson’s - Andre, Calvin, and Chris. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Andrew Nichols
“The merger (with Footballinjuries.com) was a great success, the injury stuff was wonderful and really filled in the only weakness this site used to have, yet I wouldn't say it was weak in the past. I'm to the point now that I've just give up reading any other sites (ESPN, CBS, Yahoo, etc.)...they basically are a waste of my time when compared to your content”.
B. Lancaster
“The best compliment I can give for the site, is every year when the new year begins, you guys make the improvements to the site I didn't even know I wanted. The footballinjuries.com merger and Adam Caplan's insight was awesome. Greg Cosell gave a peek gave us a film lesson that could only be outdone by Ron Jaworski. I love getting the guru emails about a trade or injury and then having someone or some web site tell me the same thing hours later. I wish I had began listening to the podcasts earlier in the year, because when you've read and heard all of the information and it's time to make a decision, it amazing how much easier I'm able to process the massive amounts of information just by hearing a couple of experts have a conversation about each game or team. You guys aren't charging nearly enough.”
C. Swan
“Your site allowed me to pick up players literally the week before they blew up, such as Ryan Torain, Shaun Hill, Sage Rosenfels, Pierre Thomas and a few others. People saw me pick them up and they wondered why I would grab them and bench them, then I started them the next week and they blew up.”
B. Pierson
“This is by far the best fantasy football subscription site that I have ever used. The attention to detail here is second to none. Finding a site that has quality and in depth coverage of IDPs is really hard to find, and this site delivers big time in that regard. I don't think it would be possible to find a site with better quality and content than Fantasy Guru.”
T. Attridge
“I love the podcasts because they give me context. Sometimes text can be misleading, but hearing the tone and emotion of your analysis has given me confidence each week that I am making the best lineup decisions possible.”
T. Higgins
“I am just finishing up an undefeated season in my league, won every head to head matchup and need just a few more points from Forte and Jennings to wrap up the Super Bowl, unbelievable. Definitely giving credit to you. Your pre-draft information helped me decide on a few choices that i was wavering on and all worked out great (Frank Gore, Greg Jennings, Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall, Owen Daniels, etc.). In season advice and content was great as well, always timely.
M. McDonald
“Won my second championship in three years in using your service. You guys were dead on about pre-season sleepers Chris Johnson and Steve Slaton. Keep up the great work!”
D. Strickland
“Excellent site! My first year and I was in the playoffs in all 3 of my leagues, and I won two of them. My subscription has paid for itself 10 times over! The tools that analyze rosters and trades are a huge help and the rankings are more accurate than any of the other services I subscribe to.”
B. Towey
“Big fan of the service. Won regular season (again) and am in the championships this weekend. Big props as usual for helping me find and appreciate guys like Lance Moore and Eddie Royal this year.”
C. Curran
“Thanks for adding the Cosell podcasts. They have a wealth of information. I used more information from you guys this year than ever before, probably because my team started 0-5. The good news is I went 9-1 after that and am in the championship game this week, despite losing my QB (Romo) right in the middle of the streak.”
A. Kubat
“All in all you guys were very good this year. I definitely feel like the most prepared/knowledgeable person in my draft and in my league. You guys nailed several reaches and your game day calls have been pretty on point the whole season.”
J. Boyle
“Looks like I will win $27,500 as the Champion of the National Fantasy Football Championship (NFFC) Ultimate League pending the outcome of today's games. Fantasy Guru was my #1 source of information this season, and clearly the most thorough and accurate of all online sources.”
Paul Clein
“The thing about the site that continues to impress is the amount and depth of info available and the professional way it is presented. You can never get enough information on your guys and there is an endless amount of information available. Each year I have become a smarter, more prepared owner. It might sound odd but the information becomes more valuable the more you learn. There are many layers to the info available. The beginner and expert can access the site and feel good about his/her chances. The best fantasy football site on the net - no question.”
B. Doby
“FantasyGuru.com is hands down the best
fantasy website in the business. Their attention to detail is
unmatched. They do what most do NOT, and that is actually watch the
games instead of just spewing out numbers.”
B. Kropp
“As a first timer here at Fantasyguru.com, I was totally impressed at what you had to offer. I have used many pay subscriptions from your competitors. FantasyGuru kicks royal ass compared to them. I'm in three money leagues. 2 out of the three I made the playoffs!!! My keeper league I went 14-0, and I took your knowledge and applied it to my draft. Matt Forte, Chris Johnson, Tim Hightower and Eddie Royal were the rookies I took a chance on. They have come through for me big time throughout the season. Awesome product guys!”
R. Duvall
“I have never used a pay FF site before this year because I assumed that I did enough research on my own. Needles to say that this year is the first year I am in considerable money, winning two of my three leagues. I feel foolish for waiting so long to see the light.”
J. Dunlop
“I have been with guru for years and I take your advice and ratings above all others. Believe me, I scour the internet every week for advice and your site is totally, totally the best, overall. I cannot imagine the pressure you guys feel every week to come up with the best ratings. You guys are Rock stars. I am from the 80's and I rarely use that as a compliment. In case you didn't know, it means you're the best.”
G. Engen
“From early August to late August I watched as you guys went from lukewarm on Steve Slaton to burning hot, on fire. I took notice, and took him in all four of my leagues. Great call.”
J. Munhall
“This is documented and can be used. I believe in John Hansen. I am in 20 leagues! I am in 19 championship games this week. The only league I didn't make it to championship...I wasn't at the draft....the best player nominated to me was Ahman Green...thru drop adds....I STILL MADE PLAYOFFS. Everything I claim can be documented. Want my log-ins?”
Harry Tiyler
“I participate in two leagues. I'm a prohibitive favorite in the finals of one league and am a lively dog the semi's of the other. I doubt I would be in either spot without the constant flow or reliable and timely information you folks provide. For me, the most valuable part of the service is the vast amount of information your staff is able to generate, analyze, and synthesize in a timely fashion. I'm a very busy professional person and have an actual social life as well. There's no way I could gather and absorb this much info on my own...not if I want to keep my job.”
G. Knapp
“Please continue the Bottom-Feeder article that you wrote last summer. I had the 12th pick in one of my leagues and I built a power-house of a team using your article as a guide for my draft strategy.’
David Ravie
