    If Peterson gets suspended...

    Given ADP's comments yesterday and his suspension history, I won't be shocked if the NFL decides to suspend him. If this is the case, and Thompson remains injured, is there anyone in Washington's backfield worth owning? Who is picking up those 1st and 2nd down carries? Curious if the Redskins...

    Help posting pictures

    How on earth do I post pictures? I looked at the help page and it mentioned an uploader but I can't seem to find this upload anywhere. Thanks.

    Trends in RB Career, Finding Value

    I've done a little numerical analysis to try and find some general trends in the careers of running backs. I understand finding numerical trends can be misleading given the insane amount of variable that go into performance. I'll also admit that my sample size isn't exactly humongous. Still, I'm...

    End of the season momentum. Does it exist?

    While working on my draft prep and projections for this season, I have been collecting quite a bit of data on players from the last five seasons. I’ve always been a big believer in end-of-the-season momentum carrying forward to the next season but this year I decided to analyze it further. My...

    What defines a bust?

    How do you guys define a fantasy season as a bust? I'm particularly interested in first round busts but welcome opinions on the overall subject. I originally was thinking that finishing outside the top 10 in the player's position was a good indicator but then realized how unbalanced of an...

    The effect of contracts on player performance

    Hey all. I'm looking to do a study analyzing the effects of player contracts on performance. Specifically, I want to analyze 1) Players playing in a contract year 2) Players in their final year of their rookie deal 3) Performance in first season of new contract with same team 4) Players in...

    Ever happened to you?

    Watching the end of the MNF game tonight and Eli, who is on my team, taking a couple of kneel downs to end the game. It made him go from -9 rushing yards to -12 yards and lose a point. It didn't affect the outcome of my game but it made me wonder: has anyone lost or tied a game from this...

    Bucs Camp

    Just got back from today's Bucs camp. Couple of notes from the day: Freeman: Josh seems to really feel comfortable just two days in to camp. This kid can really wing the ball, too. He made some throws in to some really tight spots today and threw a couple of picks but looks confident. Was...

    Ocho to Pats?

    Rumors of Ocho signing with the Pats are floating around. Any chance of him pulling a Moss and reviving his career there? Yes he's three years older than Moss was when he went to the Pats. Would have to be a MAJOR boost to his value either way though. May not be a bad move by Cincy either...

    VY to MIA?

    League sources are reporting that VY is their second choice behind Orton. With Orton taking snaps with the first team and Denver apparently playing hardball here, seems like a very real possibility since VY will be a UFA this afternoon. Who win/loses here? Obviously quite a different player...

    How big of a boost for ADP in PPR

    Now that Captain Checkkdown appears to be going to Minnesota, how much of a boost could this be for ADP? Could easily see this being big for him in that not only will he most likely be getting more looks in the passing game, but teams won't be able to stack the box as much like they wouldv'e...

    Collection of blogs

    Rotoworld does a great job of compiling all the NFL teams local newspapers which makes for a nice way to get injury news and trends going on in camp. The problem I'm finding is that almost all of the articles I find are so biased and make every running back sound like they're gonna run for 1500...

    Minnesota Play Calling

    You've got one of the best weapons in the NFL in ADP and you only give him 12 carries, and only 3 carries in the second half?! Against the 26th ranked rushing defense?! Being a Green Bay fan I love watching the Vikings lose like that but as an ADP owner this really bothers me. Twice in the...

    Cutler signs 2 Year, $30M extension

    Rotoworld Surprised by this at all? FWIW Orton's making less than a mil a year (but will be making much more than that next year if he keeps up his current level of play).

    Why I think the Wildcat COULD be here for a while

    Look, I'm not saying that the Wildcat is going to be around for years to come, or that even if it does, it's because of this, but just hear me out. Go back to 1900-the 1940's. NFL offenses are running the single wing formation and the power running game is dominating the way offenses are ran...

    Percy in for a breakout?

    Haven't seen anyone comment on it so i though I'd ask what you all think. He's going against the Lions who just gave u 6 TDs through the air and I think we all know Percy is capable of breaking off the big one. But nowhere have I seen him mentioned as a starting option for fantasy teams. Just...

    Antwaan Randle El

    He put up decent numbers against a very stout Giants D. Where would you guys rank him moving forward to next week vs. STL? Any value beyond that, too?
