The NFL draft is just around the corner, so it’s time for me to begin talking dynasty. This offseason I’m going to start with 14 players who are on the rise, that as a dynasty owner you should consider making a move for before it’s too late. This week I’m going AFC red with seven...

I have to say, it's difficult to work on a weekly IDP sleepers series when you're in the midst of two dynasty startup drafts with industry peers, especially when the lineup for each includes at least seven defensive-player spots. On the one hand, my first obligation must be to (both of) my readers...

On the TV are 300 guys who spent the past three months carefully changing their hand positioning to shave 7 hundredths of a second off their 40-yard dashes. The defenders are trying to show everyone that they can "flip their hips" and that they have a good "bubble." All we really...

So, the past couple of years I did a series in which I looked ahead to the next season and picked one relatively deep potential IDP sleeper per team. The first time around, I actually made it through every team. Last year, though, I inadvertently raised the question of how many installments you actually...

About a week ago, I gave some early reaction to a mock draft hosted by Razzball's Chet Gresham , so I think it's fitting to take a look back now on the completed exercise. The primary lesson here, was that I won't be using CouchManagers.com anytime soon. The price (free) was certainly right...

I know, I know, you're probably tired of hearing about it, especially if you're a Packers or Cardinals fan. However, I have to say that the NFL has not been real clear in it's recent explanation of the "tuck rule" not applying to this situation, and their denial of an infraction...

Free money, it’s a thing of beauty. Add in a live fantasy draft against three savvy experts during the most exciting time of the NFL season, and you literally have must see and do free entertainment. And in the end if you’re intelligence is a grade above the experts and your peers you will...

Because of the uncertainty that surrounds playing time in Week 17, I cut this position in half from the number I usually rank. Of course, dropping from 32 to 16 doesn't take nearly enough guesswork out. -- Brett Favre owners still playing should be happy that the team has something real (No. 2 playoff...

If this week is a crapshoot for choosing offensive starters (and it is), that rings even more true for selecting a fantasy defense. At least at quarterback, you only have to guess whether an individual will play or sit. On defense, you have to wonder about a group of 11 starters, as well as the key members...

Like I said last week at the top of my Start 'Em/Bench 'Em Report , I don't believe this is the time of year to reach too deep for fantasy starters. In most cases, you got to your league title match because of either a pretty solid roster overall or a few really good players and some decent...

Let's begin with what you won't find here: You will not see the names of every player worth starting in fantasy leagues for the coming week, nor will you read the names of every unworthy guy. It would be a waste of my time and yours to tell you to start Peyton Manning and to leave Maurice Stovall...
