About Me

I'm a 27-year-old fantasy football enthusiast originally from Detroit and now living in Chicago. Yes, I am a Lions fan, and yes it does suck. Why do you think I have so much time to spend on fantasy football? I'm going on my 5th season of fantasy football this year and became the proud owner of some hardware last season. I was also recently hired to be the Senior Writer at FantasyCrowd.com.

NFL News & Notes Week 1

Carolina- picked up A.J. Feely, probably wanted Jeff Garcia too after the way Delhomme played last week.

Chicago- Brian Urlacher is out for the year after dislocating his wrist. Cutler was real bad last week, I expect him to get better just not this week verse the Steelers and not as much as I expected. In case you missed the game he didn't really seem to be clicking with his receivers.

Denver- will continue to rotate running backs with Moreno and Buckhalter splitting a majority of the carries per offensive coordinator Mike McCoy. It will probably take a few outstanding games from one of the other to gain no.1 status per fftoolbox.

Detroit- nothing really of note just that they are really bad and playing Adrian Peterson this week. If you own him you may not even need to start anybody else.

Kansas City- Matt Cassell is still questionable for week 2 per head coach Todd Haley.

Indianapolis- Anthony Gonzalez is out 2-6 weeks...keep your eye on Pierre Garcon. If he is available on the waiver wire I would give him a good look. The Colts are supposedly very high on him and Austin Collie which is why they are still not interested in Marvin Harrison. Btw, Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark owners should benefit from this injury...I have both of them in our Fantasy Crowd Elite League :).

New Orleans- Pierre Thomas says he will be ready to go this week. Thomas' return will not diminish the amount of snaps that Reggie Bush sees per head coach Payton, however Pierre may still be splitting carries with Mike Bell, keep your eye on this if you own either of them.

Oakland- looked pretty good on Monday night if you weren't able to catch the game. Looks like both Darren McFadden and Michael Bush will be fantasy relevant this year. They were playing good physical football and running the ball up the gut nicely verse the Chargers. Also, Russell threw the ball a lot to Zach Miller. If you were patient and waited on him in your draft congratulations, he may very well be a pro-bowler this year and will get a lot of receptions.

Philadelphia- picked up Jeff Garcia who filled in nicely for McNabb in 06'. Great move for them, pretty much means Vick will be limited to a specialty role...bet he wishes he signed with someobody else now. Also that guy that the playboy playmate Kendra Wilkinson is married to Hank Baskett was cut to make room Garcia.

San Diego- LT will not practice Wednesday and will be a game-time decision due to sprained ankle.

Tampa Bay- Antonio Bryant will play despite knee soreness although I must say even though he is in a contract year it doesn't look like he will be able to match what he did last year in my opinion as long as Leftwich is starting. I thought he played well for Pittsburgh last year when he got a chance but he did not seem very accurate or to be throwing the ball with any touch against Dallas.
