I hate the uncertainty surrounding whether or not he'll play tonight. Furthermore, I just don't trust him a whole lot anyway for whatever reason tonight. My patience is wearing thin for him, so I'm trying to decide whether to go ahead and pick someone else up (a noon/3pm starter) and stick...

I took Cam Newton with draft pick 09.08 and sitting atop my league at 4-0. Truth be told, Peyton Manning fell to me at 03.08, so I always planned on Cam being my backup should Peyton's neck injury flare up mid-season. Never expected him to be starting for me in week 1. I'm from Alabama, so I...

Can anyone answer this for us please?? I've got both Gronk and Hernandez, but can admit that I'm clueless when it comes to what type of defense Miami plays. Thank you fellas.

Introduce me to a bookie that will accept $6800 wagers on prop bets and I'll buy you a new car this time next year. :goodposting:

Not with prop bets, these are where you will usually find the value, and don't apply to the usual contrarian strategy.On the spread and game total, I'd wholeheartedly agree with you. But with these player props, they are usually based on season averages rather than trends, and the linesmakers...

Interesting total/prop bet. The last two weeks he's had 27 completions each time. But prior to that he's rarely gotten to 20. If you take his average for the season, 19, and then average that with the Arizona Defense's avg completions allowed, 23, you can see how they came up with 21.5...

I'm totally screwed as well. I didn't plan ahead and watch the WW last week like I should have, and snoozed on Sunday while another guy picked up Alex Smith.The only serviceable QB's on my WW are Stafford, Bulger, and Delhomme. I've got a couple trade offers out there for Garrard and Alex...

I've been saying this since the end of last year. There's no doubt in my mind that the Titans will take Tebow next year. Even moreso now that they're looking at a Top 5 draft pick. Tebow is not some mental midget like Vince Young that will score a -14 on the Wunderlich test. He's a sharp guy...

I had all but decided to take him with 1.05...6 pts per passing TD and my league takes QB's really early...there's not much left after the 5th round most years. What to do? His shoulder injury looks more serious than most people think. Take a stud RB with 1.05 instead and wait to scoop...

It looks like he accidentally re-posted his previous article from a couple weeks ago.Mr. Dodds, did you accidentally post the old article rather than one of the new ones?

Seconded.The 12-team PPR Perfect Draft Article is the main reason I subscribe. Take all week if necessary, I draft Sunday the 30th! ;)

Anyone know what his schedule is like?

Last year:QB 1: Brees: 421QB 12: Thigpen: 279[142 point difference]RB 1: DeAngelo: 297RB 12: Leon Wash.: 217[79 point difference]I would think this supports my strategy? Am I missing something?

I've been reading this site for 2 years, long time lurker, first time poster.Almost every VBD article has been committed to memory at this point. So that's exactly my point: All TD's are 6 points in my league...but the 'conventional wisdom' of most on this board is based on passing TD's being...

The dreaded #5 spot here as well! lol My draft is Saturday the 29th. My league scores as follows: *All TD's 6 pts*, 12 teams, 0.5 ppr. Everything I've looked at, Draft Dominator included, suggests that I'd be crazy not to take Brady if he falls to me at #5. The GREAT thing is that most...
