2008 Patriots: Fantasy Focus

Posted 08-17-2008 at 12:38 PM by bdub2112

It's almost time for my Fantasy Football draft. Up until last season, Patriot players were less than stellar fantasy players because the key to the Patriots success was the sum of the parts as opposed to individual statistics. Last season however, three Patriots burst out onto the Fantasy scene in a big way (Brady, Moss, and Welker). Here's how I see all the potential Patriot draftees performing this season (fantasy wise).

Tom Brady: It would be unreasonable for anyone to expect the...

2008 Power Rankings: The Top 5

Posted 08-12-2008 at 09:31 PM by bdub2112
Updated 08-16-2008 at 03:15 PM by bdub2112

With the opening week of the 2008 NFL season fast approaching I think it only makes sense to delve into who I see as the top 5 contenders and explain why each one belongs where they do. So let's start with #5.

5. Pittsburgh Steelers - While the Steelers offseason was less than super successful, smashmouth football gets higher marks from me than flash and finesse. The loss of Alan Faneca, maybe the best guard in football, to the Jets is a pretty big loss. Rookie running back Rashard...

Adam Jones has been working hard in his first Cowboys’ training camp and his first NFL camp in over a year. He’s been insistent on going up against only Owens and Crayton because he wants to show what he has against the team’s two best receivers.

It’s a good thing the Cowboys’ have so much depth at CB this year since the team’s first injury has brought down the NFC East’s best CB Terrance Newman. For some reason, without him, the position just doesn’t seem as deep as it did the day...
