Free agency caused a lot of ups and downs for many players in the league. This article contains ten NFL players who's fantasy football value is on the rise since free agency. Keep an eye out for them in your fantasy football draft. Ray Rice, Bal The Raven's traded away their goal line running back, Willis McGahee. McGahee has been vulturing touchdowns from Rice for years. Willis leaving should greatly improve Rice's touchdown numbers. Then the Ravens signed All-Pro fullback Vonta Leach to a three-year deal, presumably removing Le'Ron McClain...

A great tool that is a common feature if your draft is hosted online is the watch list. A watch list is just a way to keep your eyes on any free agents your thinking about, and all in the same spot. I use this feature commonly, usually I will fill the list with players who I think have a chance of breaking out. The list is mostly filled with running backs and receivers because it is uncommon for a player to break out at any other position although a few will make the list through the season. These are the type of players you should see as free...

Carolina is one of few teams in the NFL that possess multiple starting caliber running backs. Both Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams have the talent to be three down backs in the NFL. This off-season DeAngelo Williams was a free agent. The Panthers have plenty of holes on offense and it would make a lot of sense to let Williams sign with another team. They could use that cap room at any other position but running back. Instead of letting Williams leave they resign him with a 5 year 43 million dollar contract. In my opinion, not the best move...

Free agency after the lockout was fast and exciting. So far on day one teams were only able to sign there own free agents and begin negotiating with other teams and free agents. There were tons of deals negotiated that should be signed on Thursday. On day one the talk of the day was quarterbacks. A most the smaller moves were made but the big names have yet to be moved. In this article I'm going to overview all the team changes for relevant fantasy football players so far. These moves aren't considered official until Thursday. This post will be...

Also I have been working on a big project so stay tuned...

 Word is in that the end of the lockout is near. The owners have voted to put a conditional end to the lockout. 31 voted to end the lockout while only the Raiders abstained on July 21st, 2011. Now the true end to the lockout is pending the approval of the players as well as the reformation of the NFLPA (NFL Players Association) and some general legal work. The plan they laid out should have the players back into their facilities on Saturday, July 23nd, 2011. On that day teams will be able to begin resigning or waiving their own free agents...

Fantasy football players have a lot of unusual tips, one that you might have come across is the theory that wide receivers are most likely to break out in their third season. If you've been playing fantasy football for a while now then you probably already know this rule because it is fairly common. No one has ever statistically proven it or anything it just seems to be a trend every year. The theory is that the receivers take about 2 years to get used to the higher competition and how much attention to detail their route running really takes....

Jeremy Maclin is a number 2 wide receiver with the potential to put up stats like a number 1 receiver. He doesn't have all the glamor that DeSean Jackson has but last year Maclin outscored Jackson in fantasy points. Of course Jackson played two less games than Maclin but that is another advantage Maclin has over Jackson. Jackson is known to be injury prone while injuries have never been a problem with Maclin. This year I believe that Maclin will end up within the top 10 wide receivers in the NFL. I have seen him ranked as low as 18 while browsing...

 Sleepers are crucial to success in fantasy football. You need to find undervalued players before your league mates do. These players can be used as starters, depth, or for trades. If you can collect enough solid players in the late rounds of the draft and free agency (often called waiver wire pick ups) throughout the season then you will win your fantasy football league. This article will contain strategies you can deploy to find your own fantasy football sleepers. When your new to fantasy you might find yourself a little confused about how...
Strength of schedule is calculated by taking the 2011 schedule and adding up all of each teams opponents wins and losses. This won't account for any improvements or declines by a team from the 2010 to 2011 season so it is by no means a guarantee of success but it can be useful for fantasy football. Just because the Cardinals have the easiest schedule doesn't mean you should draft a ton of Cardinals because, lets be honest, the Cardinals aren't that great. Strength of schedule can be used as a form of tie breaker. Figure out which teams have easy...

In this article I will be expanding on my previous article Fantasy Football Sleepers 2011 so be sure to read that article before you get started with this one. In this list I am only going to include 3 more fantasy football sleepers. Sleepers, as I told you in my previous article, are cruicial to your success in fantasy football. They are undervalued players who will out preform their ADP (average draft pick). Last year you could have picked Arian Foster in the middle rounds. If you did draft Foster last year then you had the biggest sleeper...

Have you ever found yourself scrambling for time when its your turn in the late rounds of a fantasy draft and you don't know who to draft? If so then your problem could be that you haven't practiced drafting. Just like anything else in life, practice makes perfect. Mock drafts will help you to recognize what round you need to take your target quarterback, or when the tight end run is going to happen so you aren't left with a mediocre tight end. In fantasy football mock drafts are the perfect practice. Mock drafts should be done at least a few...

There is a lot of rave going on this year about ranking Michael Vick for fantasy football in 2011. Some people say he is number one overall. But other people claim they would never draft him. The question on a lot of fantasy football owners minds is should I draft Michael Vick? His points per game last season was amazing. He put up spectacular numbers in only twelve games last season. Sure that all sounds great but he is also known to be an extremely risky player. Throughout the rest of this article I am going to explain why Michael Vick is scary...

This article contains fantasy football predictions and projections for Mike Williams (Tampa Bay) in the 2011 season. Mike Williams had an extraordinary rookie debut on a young Tampa Bay offense. This offense features Josh Freeman who is now entering his third season and LeGarrette Blount who is entering his second season this year. Both players are extremely young and talented. Freeman played ten games in his rookie season in 2009 and managed to rack up 1,855 yards and 10 touchdowns, he also threw 18 interceptions. It wasn't the best season....

Every year, fantasy football has a few busts. Last year there was Ryan Mathews, Shonn Greene, and Michael Crabtree to name a few. A bust is when any fantasy player under preforms the fantasy rank they were given during the off season. On this list I will include busts from all positions that I think are most likely to bust this season. It is somewhat of a do not draft list. The number next to the players name is simply for organization and isn't any sort of a ranking system. I strongly recommend that you read my rankings and sleepers as well (links...

Fantasy leagues are won and lost in the late rounds of the draft. I remember my first season of fantasy football when I was about 12 years old. I thought I knew a lot of football but I was proven sorely wrong when after doing no research at all I found myself dropping tons of my mid-late round picks to pick up free agents by mid season. By that point I got into it and was doing tons of research and totally obsessed so I ended up doing fair in an inactive league. The most important things in fantasy if you want to be successful are to do your pre-draft...

Welcome to my fantasy football analysis blog, this is Kevin. For a little background information I have been playing fantasy football for about 10 years now which isn't so much compared to some people, but I am obsessed with fantasy football and I like to think I have a high win percentage in my leagues :).
