Since my introduction to the growing world of dynasty leagues, fantasy football has truly become a year-round obsession searching for dynasty sleepers. The day after the fantasy season ends, I start thinking about sleepers to target in my rookie drafts in May. After my rookie drafts and during the season, I scour the waiver wire each week looking for sleepers. Some of these players can help your fantasy team right away. Some of these players might take 2-3 years to [...]

Well, after yet another s**tpile of recommendations from the “mind” of Mr. Davenport (you’d think he’d accidentally get one right eventually, but he’s a perfectionist at incompetence) I have once again, as a service to you dear reader, tasered the doofus and assumed control of this article. You can thank me later. START Aaron Kampman – DE, JAX (at DAL): The Cowboys low sacks allowed total is at least partially due to quick shot play calls, and I don’t know [...]
With the six team byes here (Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Cleveland, New York Giants, Philadelphia this week) and thinning the talent pool and fresh off a server crash that almost made me crap myself here are the Top 30 Defensive Linemen, Linebackers, and Defensive Backs for IDP leagues for Week Eight of the 2010 season. Cheatsheet based on Default IDP Manor Scoring. DEFENSIVE BACKS 1. LaRon Landry – WAS at DET 2. Yeremiah Bell – MIA at CIN 3. Bernard Pollard [...]
PICKUP OF THE WEEK Craig Dahl – S, St. Louis Rams The Merry-Go-Round at strong safety in St. Louis just keeps on a spinnin’, as James Butler, who replaced Dahl in the starting lineup after Dahl replaced Butler before the season began (get that?), will again give way to Dahl after aggravating the MCL injury that cost him most of training camp. Neither player is an elite talent, but the SS slot in St. Louis has shown to be a [...]
The Houston Chronicle reports that the Texans plan to move outside linebacker Brian Cushing to the middle for the remainder of the 2010 season to replace the injured DeMeco Ryans. Cushing, the reigning Defensive Rookie of the Year, has 17 tackles (including 11 solos) in two games in 2010 after serving a four game suspension to begin the season. The Ball Says: IDP owners who kept Cushing on their rosters throughout his suspension must feel like Christmas came early, as [...]
THE DEFENDANT: Minnesota Vikings defensive end Jared Allen. THE CHARGE: Being the biggest IDP defensive lineman bust of 2010. 2010 Statistics: 18 tackles, 1 sack, 1 interception, 2 passes defensed There’s no denying that it’s been a quiet (to put it mildly) 2010 season so far for Allen, the consensus preseason #1 fantasy DL, who had an interception in Sunday’s loss to the Packers but failed to record a sack for the 4th straight game (for the first time in [...]
We’re just about halfway through the fantasy football regular season, and whether you’re riding high and looking to continue your winning ways or scrambling like hell trying to salvage your season here are the Week Seven recommendations for IDP leagues. START Glenn Dorsey – DE, KC (vs. JAC): Dorsey’s been quiet this season, but if there’s ever a time to roll him out there it’s at home against the Jags and Todd Freaking Bouman. Matt Shaughnessy – DE, OAK (at [...]
After a week of bucket-jarring (and wallet lightening) hits and with the Colts, Jets, Lions, and Texans taking a siesta this Sunday let’s take a look at the Top 30 Defensive Linemen, Linebackers, and Defensive Backs for IDP leagues for Week Seven of the 2010 season. Cheatsheet based on Default IDP Manor Scoring. DEFENSIVE BACKS 1.) LaRon Landry – WAS at CHI 2.) Yeremiah Bell – MIA vs PIT 3.) Patrick Chung – NE at SD 4.) Roman Harper – [...]

PICKUP OF THE WEEK Zac Diles – LB, Houston Texans It was a continuation of linebacker pinball last week for Diles, who filled in at at SLB while Brian Cushing was on suspension then slid over to MLB Sunday after DeMeco Ryans suffered a season-ending Achilles’ injury. It’s unknown at this point whether or not that move is permanent or if Diles will move back to his normal spot at WLB in Week 8 (the Texans have a week 7 [...]
