    How bad is Blaine Gabbert?

    He does have the 2nd highest (behind Beck) sack rate of all QBs with 100+ attempts.Through 9 starts, check these numbers out:- 2 games of 200+ yards- 0 multi-TD games- 5 of 9 under 50% completion rate- 7 of 9 under 7 yards per attemptFor comparison, take Andy Dalton through 11 starts:- 6 games...

    Reggie Bush - Take a Chance, Roll the Dice? Maybe now's the time.

    I grabbed him as a RB4 in a PPR. If everything work out, I hope he doesn't reach my lineup more than once or twice. I expect a lot of the same as NO; 4-5 rushes for ~30 yards, another 4-5 catches for ~40 yards and maybe a TD every few games. I think upside is 100-110 total yards a game and...

    FINLEY! FINLEY! FINLEY!

    Guys, I'm in a super intense high stakes big money league and am sitting at pick 1.7. CJ2K, ADP, MoJo, Burner, Frank-Go and Camarillo are already off the board. I'm having a tough time choosing between Finley and An-Jo; thoughts?

    Paging Mr. Dodds

    Love the articles, and usually follow them fairly closely. However, this is the year I will be staying away from Mr Dodds' recomended QB. I just see very little upside for a 31 year old guy that has averaged 208 yards passing and 1.09 TDs a game in the 43 games he's started the last 4 years...

    Player Spotlight: Donovan McNabb

    If he can last 16 games, I think McNabb is in for a good season. There is risk with him as your QB, and his yard will never be top-flight, but he provides a solid mid-late QB1 value. 530 Attempts 320 Completions 3816 Yards Passing 7.2 YPA 22 TDs 10 Ints 50 Rushes 200 Yards Rushing 1 TD

    Player Spotlight: Wes Welker

    I like Welker, but to think he will keep averaging 110 catches a season is a little too optimistic. 95 Receptions 1045 Yards Receiving 11.0 YPR 7 TDs

    Player Spotlight: Matt Forte

    I would expect to see a lot of the same from lat year. The carries and receptions might go down a little, but a bona-fide passing game should lead to a higher yards per carry. 300 Carries 1260 Yards Rushing 4.2 YPC 9 TDs 50 Receptions 400 Yards Receiving 8.0 YPR 2 TDs Oddly, these...

    Tyler Thigpen will finish as a Top-5 QB in 2009

    I posted this in another thread, but there are two major red-flags with Thigpen. 1. He has a 55.7% completion percentage; that puts him 29th in the league. 2. He has a 6.1 yards per attempt; good for 29th rank again. In both cases, Thigpen is sandwhiched between Marc Bulger and Matt...

    Week 14 Venting Thread

    Usually don't complain, but I have to get this one off of my chest; need some closure. Finished second in my division and the total points leader in my big $$ league ($300 entry). Struggled all week with two decisions: QB - Roethlisberger/Schaub/Hill - Our league is only 3 point TDs and no...

    Shawn Merriman admits career could be over.

    If McGahee and Culpepper could come back from their knee injuries, I don't see how Merriman could be done. Torn ACLs, ruptured tendons and bone on bone issues are things we seem to hear all the time now; how could this end his career; really does sound over dramatic. I'm not saying it isn't a...

    Marshawn Lynch at #5

    :X I like Addai better myself for the reasons stated above, but it's your team and if you like Lynch, take him. You probably won't get him in the second.

    Latest GBN Mock Draft - Three Rounder

    :( I think if Mendenhall or Stewart are there at 22 or 28, the Cowboys will take one of them. Otherwise, I think a Jamaal Charles, Ray Rice or Chris Johnson are the pick in the late second. I just don't see the Cowboys taking Jones in the first; wouldn't be good value. The big three RBs are...

    Buddy's NFL 08' 1st Round Mock

    That could really backfire if the Chiefs view Ryan as a franchise QB.

    Buddy's NFL 08' 1st Round Mock

    Really solid job; seem my comments above. Most mocks are looking very similiar right now; I gaurantee a lot will change in the next month and a half. I always look forward to Rick Gosselin's mocks because he really seems to guage the value of players better than just about any other expert out...

    Michael Turner vs Marion Barber

    I can't say much about Turner because I really haven't watched him a ton, but I have seen nearly every snap Barber has taken in the NFL. For some highlights: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgnOrrE9Zng A few opinions I have on Barber... Good: - Might have the best balance of any RB in the...
