    Dynasty trading strategy

    I've played FF for years and years, but I'm relatively new to dynasty. This is NOT "what do you think of my trade offer" post, since I don't have any specific trade offers going. It's more a general, theoretical strategy question. I'm having trouble figuring out/getting a good feel for how to...

    Lineup requirements: How many starters at a position are too many?

    My current 14 team league (currently 1QB / 2RB / 3WR / 1TE / 1K / 1DEF) is considering adding 1 or even 2 RB/WR/TE flex starters. I'm wondering if that's just fine or if perhaps it's too many RBs and/or too many WRs for NFL player depth, but I'm also trying to figure out more generally, for...

    Brett Favre - How much will he play today?

    ESPN just reported that Driver, Jennings, and Donald Lee are ALL out. Not a good sign for Favre. On the other hand, are they really going to stick fragile Aaron Rodgers in there? How long do you see Favre playing in today's game?

    David/Joe/FBG experts/fellow sharks - Top 250 Forward

    I realize the FOX Colorado report isn't confirmed by the team, but IF LJ is in fact out for the season with a broken foot, where exactly do Priest & Kolby Smith now fit in in the top 250 forward?

    5 minute drill - new eps not showing up on ITunes?

    First, I realize that the show can be viewed or downloaded on the FBG site, so it's not like one can't get them, but is there some reason the new episodes aren't showing up on ITunes? I've got it subscribed to there for automatic download of new episodes, but the new eps aren't there.

    Bryant Johnson (WR-ARI)

    I realize that the Steelers are a tough matchup, but with Anquan Boldin doubtful and Bryant Johnson expected to replace him in the starting lineup, why is Johnson ranked so low? I wasn't expecting him to be top-10 or anything, but he's not even in the top 75 WRs for the week. I haven't seen...

    Raider Defense - What's up with FBG rankings for them?

    It's natural to see a lot of variation in the rankings, and I know some positions are harder to predict than others. Having said that, looking at the FBG expert rankings, I'm puzzled by the huge variation when it comes to the Raiders D. Some seem to view the Raiders as a top tier defense (3rd...

    How good is Darren Sproles? ... with Michael Turner hurt ...

    Okay, first, we don't know yet the severity of Turner's ankle injury. But Turner was one of the top (if not the top) pure handcuffs in the league. He's no LT if LT goes down, but Turner would still be a top tier RB. Frankly, I just haven't seen enough of Darren Sproles to get a good feel for...

    Dodds' Perfect Draft - 14 Teams

    David - I know you guys are swamped trying to get out all the great content for us, but do you have any idea when the 14 team perfect draft article is going to hit the website? Thanks in advance!

    The Upside of Danger

    Great article by Colin Dowling about going for high risk / high reward players over other safer picks of equal value ... I won't get into subscriber content here by talking about Colin's specific player picks, but who are YOUR picks for high risk / high reward players that you are considering...

    14 (or larger) Team League -- Draft Strategy

    I'm anxiously awaiting David's 14-team version of the perfect draft, but in the meantime, I thought I'd try to start a little discussion here. Most of the draft strategy is focused on the standard 12 teamers (which is understandable given that it's the most common), but quite a few of us are in...

    Anybody starting Colston? If so, who are you starting him over?

    He's currently listed as a game-time decision, so we won't know until tonight if he's actually playing ... but I'm thinking about taking a chance on him in a couple of different leagues, in one I may be starting him over Santana Moss. Who are you starting Colston over? Or, if you're not...

    Waiver Wire Gems - Week 12 edition

    McNabb - out for the season Backup = Garcia ... Consensus seems to be he's not going to be worth a great deal going forward unless you just really need a body and don't have anyone else. Lamont Jordan - out in 1st half, injury status unclear Backup - Huggy Bear Fargas ... had 19 rushes for 52...

    Reuben Droughns, Jerome Harrison, Jason Wright

    Any Cleveland homers or anyone else have an idea about whether Droughns will be healthy enough to take the majority of snaps Sunday against Pitt? If he's still hurt, will it be mostly Wright, mostly Harrison, a useless 50-50 split between the two, etc?

    Tatum Bell -- sell quickly, or possible buy low candidate now?

    FBG maxim - every player has value ... the question is what that value is right now. The problem is that, in statistical terms, the range of likely outcomes for Tatum is so much wider than for most players. Mike Bell could take over and never look back, leaving Tatum completely worthless ...

    Michael Robinson RB-SF (2 TDs this week) - What's your call?

    Gore went out hurt after fumbling on the goal line again this season. Robinson scored 2 TDs and gained some decent yardage, albeit in arguably garbage time aganst the Eagles. What's your call -- value of Robinson going forward?

    Lamont Jordan -- His value going forward

    PROS - Jordan doesn't have a Maroney/Jerome Harrison/Lendale White player that's a real challenge for the #1 RB role - The first 2 games were against tough defenses ... the rest of the schedule promises to be somewhat easier - As laughable as it is, Art Shell did "write something down" about...

    Vikings WRs

    Troy Williamson - 12 targets, 4 catches for 77 yards - while not quite Johnson's only target, the clear favorite by far, at least tonight. He got open a lot, but dropped a few big ones. Having said that, right now he still looks like he might be the only viable player for fantasy purposes. If...

    Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

    Who are you considering picking up, and why? A lot of this obviously depends upon the number of teams and roster sizes in your leagues, but I'll start the ball rolling with a couple possibilities based on the early Sunday games ... Marques Colston, TE/WR (depending on which website hosts your...

    Keeper league - best free site to host?

    Some buddies of mine and I are trying to figure out the best site to host a keeper league with an online draft. The keeper rules allow you to keep up to 3 players, but you have to give up a draft pick 3 rounds higher than the spot he was originally drafted in ... so this isn't the type of...
