Relying on a glut of pass attempts is by no means a rock solid strategy in selecting your fantasy signal caller. It’s an unstable predictor of fake football success that’ll give you moderate to severe ulcers. Game plans change, some game scenarios dictate run-heavy approaches, and quarterbacks who throw 40 times a game face defenses […]

What’s the opposite of Rich Gannon, the borderline journeyman signal caller with an adequate arm and a penchant for reading coverage schemes and taking what the defense gives him? Jay Cutler. Cutler, blessed with a canon where his right arm should be, has never seen coverage he didn’t like. He seems to think – much

Your thoughts on Chicago Bears skill position players and what they might do for your 2013 fake football squad can probably be summed up in a single word, or grunt, or barely audible noise: Meh.

How good can Wes Welker, the veritable and aptly named Slot Machine, be in the Denver Broncos’ well-oiled offense?

Reggie Bush, a day after it was reported that the Detroit Lions were offering him a three-down gig, signed in the Motor City, simultaneously becoming a potential cold-blooded PPR killing machine while submarining the fantasy value of Mikel Leshoure. Bush, who wasn’t exactly used as a workhorse back in Miami – receiving 12 carries or

Don your radiation suits. It may be the only way to protect yourself against the fantasy community’s reaction to Percy Harvin’s transfer to the Great Northwest, where he’ll catch passes from and eventually complain about Russell Wilson. Beyond being a malignant locker room tumor and a diva no longer in training, Harvin is an exceedingly
