Fantasy playoffs are here, people, and, if you are the lucky few who will be seeing postseason action, I send my congratulations. It is win-or-go-home time. While I am always an advocate of starting your studs, sometimes those guys can get hurt and leave fantasy owners scrambling for players. If that scenario ...Published on: 7th December, 2009
Anybody get burned by the DeAngelo Williams scratch yesterday? Hopefully fantasy owners of DWill had Jonathan Stewart ready, as he had a good showing in Williams’ absence. The good thing for fantasy owners was that there was some forewarning. Williams did not practice all week and was looking awfully doubtful to ...Published on: 4th December, 2009
Working near Cleveland, I deal with a lot of Browns fans on a daily basis. They are a pretty resilient group for the most part, but these certainly are trying times for the Dawg Pound. One Browns fan gave me a piece of advice yesterday for this weekend’s Browns-Chargers game: Start ...Published on: 4th December, 2009
Welcome back, I hope everyone had a superb Thanksgiving holiday. We had two weeks of games to sift through since the last published Rookie Report . There were some solid performers, but I believe two rookies are head and shoulders above the rest. 1. Percy Harvin, WR, Vikings Harvin has proven his critics ...Published on: 18th November, 2009
In continuation of trade deadline advice week here at The Hazean, today's fantasy football trade feature focuses on a few players with tasty playoff schedules. In case you were wondering, yesterday's feature highlighted eight handcuffs fantasy owners should target via the waiver wire or trade market this week. For those of you ...Published on: 16th November, 2009
Vindication, thy name is the waiver wire! Hopefully our advice was heeded last week and you added Ladell Betts or Jamaal Charles to your roster. Both guys finished the day with more than 100 yards rushing and one touchdown. Not too bad for a plug-and-play in my opinion. There was a myriad ...Published on: 13th November, 2009
You know it is a down year when the rookie rankings are headed up by a guy who did not even play last weekend. Sure, this year’s class has had its moments. Mark Sanchez looked like like a star at the start of the year. Knowshon Moreno took the reins in ...Published on: 11th November, 2009
The starting roster scramble is about to begin in earnest for fantasy football owners. With more teams observing bye weeks of the 2009 NFL regular season this weekend, fantasy owners will spend precious team management time plugging holes in rosters left by idle players . Complicating matters for several owners are injuries ...Published on: 11th November, 2009
Perhaps I overlooked one other emerging running-back-by-committee last week, because clearly Ahmad Bradshaw has worked his way into a significant portion of the Giants’ running game. In Sunday’s loss to the Chargers, Bradshaw carried the ball 14 times to lead all Giants running backs in carries. Jacobs carried 11 times while ...Published on: 6th November, 2009
Time again to take a look at how the fantasy rankings have shaken out with another quarter of the season in the books. Now at the midway point in the NFL schedule fantasy owners are getting a better idea of which players are for real and which may have been fantasy ...
