Don't Just Play, Win! Have you ever walked into your fantasy football draft unprepared? Carrying a Okay, I gave you Ryan Torrain a week before everyone else, I gave you Lance Moore (I said it in October), I even gave you Kyle Orton when no one was sure if he was the real Kyle Orton or the guy we see now. Are you dumbies ready to listen???
Qb’s
Head Smacker’s-
There are no real headsmackers at this point in the year. If they are out there, people already have them…just in case. Here are a couple that might put up 15 for you in a pinch.
Gus Ferrotte, Minnesota- Yes he is old, I know he is a journeyman and his name is Gus. But, when they stack 15 in the box to stop AD Peterson, there is bound to be a few guys open.
JP Losman, Buffalo- Again, he is not going to put up 5 TDs for you but he can throw for one and run for another and get you 200yds and that my friend, is the high teens in any league. If Trent Edwards is out (groin) Losman might be a nice pick up.
RB
Head Smackers-
Justin Fargas, Oakland- This guy just refuses to give up his starting job to rookie sensation McFadden. Plus he plays on Oakland a team that doesn’t seem to realize you are allowed to throw. He is probably already scooped in your league (unless you play with idiots…and if you do, lucky you!)
Tashard Choice, Dallas- I already told you to pick this guy up 3 weeks ago but…I had him as a not so obvious. Now I am screaming, PICK HIM UP!!! Barber is hurt (which if you were paying attention was bound to happen, the guy runs like he has a death wish and he loves smashing his body into other men)
Not So Obvious
Carnell Williams, Tampa Bay- This guy has been injured since POP Warner football and has looked horrible but, for some reason the bucks seem determined to make him effective…at least until he blows out something else.
Hail Mary-
With everyone in the league injured, all the hail mary’s are starting, if there are any starting RB’s in your league that are not owned and you are carrying more than one kicker or defense….you are an idiot and I can’t help you.
WR
Head Smackers
Domenik Hixon, New York Giants- With Plaxico Burress trying to kill two birds with one stone (shoot his sack off and auditioning to be Michael Vick’s Cell mate) Hixon should see a lot more targets.
Not so obvious
Davone Bess, Miami- With the flavor of the month Greg Camarillo out for the season, it appears Bess will be the next WR for Miami required tto get 50 YAC on every catch in order to keep Pennington’s numbers up.
Hail Mary
Mark Clayton, Baltimore- Joe Flacco seems to be emerging as more than the smartest kid in the special class (U of Delaware) if this is to continue Clayton might actually be of some use.
