The Top Five Picks, Why What and When
Having one of the top picks in your fantasy football draft is a privilege, not a right. This season having the first pick seems to be a more difficult decision than falling at the number two spot. But with names out there such as Adrian Peterson, Chris Johnson, Drew Brees and Maurice Jones-Drew, many people [...]
Top 50 Players for the 2010 Season
It’s that time of year, knuckleheads. Fantasy football is back! You’ve surely got questions, so we here at Fantasy Knuckleheads have the answers! Since setting up fictional league settings and projecting their stats and point totals bores me, I’ll be making my top 50 list based on a combination of 2009 stats, 2010 projected stats, [...]
Baltimore Ravens Lose Starting CB Domonique Foxworth For Season
Reports out of Baltimore late Friday evening are that cornerback Domonique Foxworth has a torn ACL and will miss the 2010 season. Foxworth, penciled in as one of the Ravens starting corners, reportedly suffered the injury during Thursday’s practice. The Ravens have a banged up secondary already. Ed Reed had hip surgery during the off [...]
Fantasy Analysis: 2010 Offensive Line Rankings
Believe it or not there is one player in fantasy football even less respected than the kicker, and that’s the offensive line. Though we do not draft these gridiron warriors, their impact on our fantasy teams may be a revelation for some. Most fantasy owners have no clue which teams boast the best offensive lines [...]
LeBron Shames – James snubs Cleveland for hot Miami nights, Loyalty absent in sports
At Fantasy Knuckleheads we generally focus solely on the fantasy side of sports, but every once in a while there is a story that goes deeper fantasy or the sport itself. For our take on the fantasy angle, read our report on the LeBron James trade and its fantasy implications. ◆ ◆ ◆ [...]
Fantasy Football Sleeper Chester Taylor
Chester Taylor has always had some median value in PPR (points per reception) leagues, as a pass-catching option out of the backfield for the Minnesota Vikings. He was targeted by Brett Favre 59 times in 2010, and turned that into 44 receptions. That’s a respectable 75% conversion ratio. Alas he had only two touchdowns to [...]
Houston Texans Fantasy Projections
If you ask Jeff Van Gundy about the Houston Texans he will tell you three things: he has season tickets, they will win the Super Bowl, and that Matt Schaub is the greatest quarterback in the NFL and if you disagree… he will latch onto you like he’s, well, himself, and you’re Alonzo Mourning’s leg. [...]
New England Patriots Fantasy Projections
In 2009, a lot of excuses were made for the Patriots failing to make it deep into the playoffs. There was Tom’s knee, Wes’s knee, Randy’s beard, Gisele Bundchen (understandable), and Maroney’s impeccable ball security (yes, that’s sarcasm), but in 2010 no amount of excuses will suffice. The Patriots are as talented as ever and [...]
Baltimore Ravens Fantasy Projections
Updated 8/25/2010 With their 34-14 trouncing of the New England Patriots in the opening round of the 2009 NFL Playoffs, the sixth-seeded Baltimore Ravens ensured that they would not be bet against for the remainder of the playoffs. After their untimely and unfortunate loss to the eventual Super Bowl losing Colts the next round, the [...]
Fantasy Football 2010 Rookie QB Impact
While there are a number of rookies from this April’s NFL draft that should prove to have fantasy value headed into the 2010 season, none of them are likely to be quarterbacks. Of the four big name QBs that were picked up in the draft only four have a reasonable likelihood of doing anything at [...]
Fantasy Football 2010 Rookie TE Impact
The tight end depth in the NFL in terms of decent fantasy production is pretty solid. Most leagues only require one TE, and unless you’re in an extremely deep league, you’re bound to get a serviceable one. If you check our 2010 TE Rankings you’ll see the top two tiers go 14 players deep. That [...]
Cincinnati Bengals Fantasy Projections
This will certainly be an interesting season for the team formerly known as the Bungles. After a tumultuous year with the tragic loss of Chris Henry, Chad Ochocinco’s “Dancing with the Stars” theatrics, and Carson Palmer playing like he was back in college for a while and then forgetting how to play altogether, I am [...]
Buffalo Bills Fantasy Projections
Well, where to begin with the neglected and forgotten basement dwellers of the AFC East. In 2009 they struggled on offense, defense, special teams, cheerleading, stadium vendoring, etc. The Bills offseason needs were numerous and remained primarily unaddressed through both the draft and free agency, as if they are trying to slip into obscurity before [...]
