Westbrook is a bigger injury risk than James, but Hightower benefits from all that rookie luv (beyond winning a league, everyone wants to be the guy who "found" this year's Ryan Grant, it's a feather in your FF cap). Would take Booker over Hightower late, given a choice. If I wanted to win...

Lorenzo Booker.

Expanded Rosters. Great way to test your knowledge of the NFL players and force your league's owners to be more active (smaller talent pool equals more transactions). I can't speak to PPR or 4 point TD leagues, but I have been in a few expanded roster format leagues.It's really not too...

This is a Fantasy Football board, right? It's about the stats. Palmer may be able to take advantage of a good receiving corps and a very solid O-Line. He may be able to even put up W's, a-la Tom Brady.But no way does Marv Lewis let loose the leash on Palmer to take big chances against those...

Just last week, I had to defend not having Palmer on my top 25 QB list in another thread. However, I stated that I liked him in the same way as McCown and Carr, potential sleepers who might come on as the season progressed. I am the type of owner who will typically take two of the QBs in the...

I've been a VBD drafter for five years. I compile projections from a number of "expert" sources and weight them, but I barely modify the weighted projections (I am a statistician, not a scout). My approach is similar to an index fund, though I never would have made the analogy before I read...

Only 4 of the 2002 playoff teams made it to the playoffs in 2003? Is that a correct stat? And I think the Super Bowl competitors both missed the playoffs. I was hospitalized for all of last December, so maybe it was all a drug-induced dream.I'm not bold enough to pick 8 teams to fall off and...

Portis, LT, Williams, Faulk and Priest (if healthy) could all be the #1 performer in FFL leagues this year, but let me point out one little unmentioned detail:Williams (#1 on my board) sees the Patriots, Eagles (ouch) and the Bills in Buffalo (ouch) in my playoffs.LT (#2) gets the Detroit...
