Week 16 Pickups
Posted on 21 Dec 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Hopefully you’re still in the playoffs. I am. Aaron Hernandez (Available in 39% of leagues) Hernandez takes on the Bills this week who rank in the bottom three of the league in points given up to tight ends, and however spontaneous the tight end situation is for New England, Hernandez is the safest play between him and teammate Rob Gronkowski. Marshawn Lynch (Available in 59% of leagues) Th...

McFadden, Stewart lead Week 15′s Start’em or Sit’em
Posted on 16 Dec 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Start’em in Week 15 Darren McFadden (vs. Denver) There’s something about McFadden exposing horrendous rush defenses and then playing doormat to average to good ones. Against defenses ranked 1st to 15th, Run DMF has TOTALED just 61 fantasy points — six games for an average of just over 10 — but against the bottom half of the league, he has totaled 131 fantasy points — five ...

Playoff Pickups
Posted on 14 Dec 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Kenny Britt (Available in 61% of leagues) I only like Britt if Kerry Collins is starting. As for rookie, Rusty Smith? Well, he couldn’t throw in the towel, let alone the football. Collins is a season veteran who knows how to get the ball to his playmakers and before Britt went down he had seven touchdowns in seven games. Britt has two matchups left out of three that find him against two of th...

Week 14: Start’em or Sit’em
Posted on 9 Dec 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Quick Tips for the rest of the season, including playoffs: 1) Weather, weather, weather. If you have Tom Brady (@ Chicago), Jay Cutler (vs. New England; 31st pass defense), Peyton Hillis (@ Buffalo; 32nd rush defense), etc., you have to monitor the weather. There's a 50% chance of snow in Chicago and an 80% chance of snow in Buffalo. 2) If a team has a lead they can't lose divisionally, it may ...

Week 14 (and beyond) Pickups
Posted on 7 Dec 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Brian Westbrook (available in 29% of leagues) Don’t take a lot out of the shellacking the 49ers took on the road against Green Bay. Being behind a large percentage of the time, Westbrook wasn’t used too often, but with matchups against Seattle, St. Louis, and Arizona, the savvy veteran should produce. James Starks (available in 93% of leagues) Who? — I know, right? But don’t hate ...

Week 13: Start’em or Sit’em
Posted on 2 Dec 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
If the playoffs started today (NFL, not fantasy), three out of the four games on Wildcard Weekend would have the visiting team favored. For the NFC, No. 5 New Orleans would travel to No. 4 St. Louis. For the AFC, No. 6 Pittsburgh would travel to No. 3 Kansas City and No. 5 New England would travel to No. 4 Jacksonville. Through all of this, should division winners be guaranteed a home playoff g...

Week 12: Feelin’ Hot, Hot, Hot…or Not, Not, Not
Posted on 30 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Playoff time is just around the corner and, at times, it can be better to start one player who’s on a hot streak, rather than just a big name. Since Week 8 (excluding bye weeks), here’s who’s hot & who’s not: Who’s Hot Dwayne Bowe. It’s very simple: No receiver has had more yards or touchdowns in the past five weeks than Bowe (40 catches, 544 yards, 9 TD). Only two other wideout...

Week 12: Start’em or Sit’em
Posted on 24 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
It’s a short week, so let’s just get to the good stuff. Start’em in Week 12 Kevin Boss (vs. Jacksonville) No Steve Smith, no Hakeem Nicks and Boss – the Giants’ leading receiver per yards per reception (15.1) – takes on the NFL’s 28th worst pass defense in the Jaguars. Mario Manningham (vs. Jacksonville) The Giants’ No. 1 receiver for the next three weeks Danny Woodhead (@ Det...

As ‘Favre’ as it should go
Posted on 23 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Should the soap opera in Minnesota continue with Brett Favre as lead actor? It’s irrational, self-absorbed and utterly upsetting, even for the fans sake, to keep Favre under center for the remainder of the season. In Sunday’s 31-3 laugher against rival Green Bay one bright spot was that wide receiver Sidney Rice was activated off the PUP (physically unable to perform) list and led the Vikin...

Week 11 Start’em or Sit’em
Posted on 18 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
20 Bold Predictions for the rest of the season: 1) David Garrard will finish as a top 10 fantasy quarterback. (Right now he’s 16th.) 2) Brett Favre will not finish out the season as the Vikings’ starting quarterback. 3) The San Diego Chargers will win their division. (I guess that’s not so bold.) 4) Matt Ryan won’t lose a game at home…even throu...

Week 11 (and beyond) Pickups
Posted on 16 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Week 10 (and beyond) pickups: Quarterbacks Sam Bradford (available in 57% of leagues) Back-to-back 15-point performances have Bradford in a good position against the Atlanta Falcons this week (23rd against the pass) and the Arizona Cardinals (27th against the pass) in Week 13. Colt McCoy (available in 93% of leagues) The Browns are hot as of late and playing against Jacksonville this week (29th...

NFL Week 10, The Midseason: Some Like It Hot
Posted on 11 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Fantasy football, like the midseason period for NFL organizations can be a stressful time to make difficult choices. Whether to pickup Minnesota’s Sidney Rice, Tennessee’s Nate Washington or even Arizona’s LaRod Stevens-Howling can be equally as contemplative for NFL owners and coaches as they have to deal with their own dilemmas. Dallas’ Jerry Jones didn’t seem to have that tough a t...
