Just confirming if FBG isn't running the weekly Confidence pool article this year? I haven't noticed it in the content so far, so I'm guessing not. But thought perhaps its being kept elsewhere, or under another name.

Again, thanks to everyone who responded. There were a number of well qualified candidates I would have felt comfortable going with. The coaching staff has now been filled.

Thanks to those that have responded to this point. FYI, Free Agency is starting late week, which is an exciting time of year for the league. I'm hoping to have at least one strong candidate officially added to the staff in the next few days, and ideally at least two. PM or email me at...

I run a franchise in a 16 team, 32 player IDP expert league called the Hire and Fire Association for Experts (HAFAX). This league has a number of unique elements to it, the most notable being that collaborative management is encouraged, as there are positions on the team with designated sets of...

I skimmed the above, and people seem concerned that Martz never utilized a TE in the past, and that's the reason they're leery of him. Ask yourself, who has Martz had at his disposal at the TE position in the past? The talent basically peaked for him at the position with the poo poo platter of...

For a guy coming off major injury, doesn't it go without saying that he'll be sharing carries with someone else? Look around the league, how many situations are there that haven't been called "committee's"? When the term RBBC started making the rounds, it was to explain time shares and for...

Define "committee"? To me it's one of the more over-stated terms. Guys are going to share carries, whether it's 50/50 or 80/20, it can still be referred to as a committee. As for the one in Miami, it's the pre-season so nobody should be expecting thinks to shape up exactly as it appears they...

Orlando Pace plays a big part in how good Holt is going to be this year, and perhaps they just don't think he can stay healthy. Without him that passing offense is a mess. Bulger is the type of QB that needs ample protection. Without Pace, Burress' situation is significantly better. Even with...

People obviously assume he can't keep it up. His numbers are almost too outrageous to believe, especially considering how poor he was last year. Right now he would garner top tier SP value in a trade, so those acquiring him are taking all of the risk. I'm a Lee owner in a few leagues, and I'm...

Johjima has shown some minor signs of coming around. He's been quite consistent throughout his short career, so I think he's the most likely to provide you with solid Catcher play the rest of the year. If you're DL'ing Doumit and are looking for more of a short-term solution, Ianetta is probably...

Obviously he can't maintain quite this production, but he's still a borderline top 5 SS. If you can somehow upgrade into the top tier without giving up much in addition go for it, but otherwise you're likely stuck with him and a minor decline in the 2nd half. Nothing major, he's still a good...

Like him, hate him, WHO CARES! Take those sticks out of your arses if you can't find the fun in watching a play like that. Nobody is going to confuse Manny for a serious athelte anytime soon and we ALL know this, so was that action so unforgivable? That's who the guy is, a goofball who...

If you have a chance at Vladi and all you need to move is Oswalt, jump at that. You can probably flip him for a higher tier SS than Jeter, or at least get more value in return. Oswalt on name is a great pitcher, and has had a great career. that said, is stuff has diminshed to the point where...

With the way the Jets spent in FA, it's clear they want to win NOW. Thing is, Pennington is their best option to win now, but he's certainly not without his flaws. It's well publicized he's a highly accurate gamer that the team can rally behind, but that his lack of a deep arm limits the...

Their top picks have almost always come from the lines. I'd say Phil Merling would have been a good fit. Groves was also a good guess.

I was thinking the same thing. He gets taken in the top 5, he's a bust, b/c that guy needs to become at the very least a good LT. At the 19th pick, that he's become a solid RT isn't bad at all. Could be better, but certainly no bust.I'd debate Mark Clayton wasn't either. Last year was his 3rd...

If I was going to trade any of the three, it would be Barber. That said, I wouldn't do it straight up for MJD, and would want additional compensation. In a PPR it's debatable which of the two would have a better year, but MJD is obviously still in a full committee and I would think his owner is...

Dolphins At 1st overall I want Jake Long. In the 2nd I want James Hardy if he falls. Brian Brohm is my prefernce if Hardy is gone, but it's doubtful Tuna goes with the smaller Brohm, as Flacco or Henne fit the profile of what he likes in a QB better.

James Hardy won't be learning a new position like Jones did.

Some notable 1st round "reaches" of the last few years: 2007 1.05 - Levi Brown, OT, ARZ 1.09 - Ted Ginn, WR, MIA 1.16 - Justin Harrell, DT, GB Looks like Brown will be a good player, while Ginn and Harrell have yet to make an impact. Harrell especially still seems like a weak pick. 2006...
