In my league it came in the fourth pick of a ten team draft. The guy picking third, who consequently fell into Adrian Peterson thanks to a similar "WOW" moment when the second team went Matt Forte, took Peterson open the door for pick No. 4 to select... LenDale White. HUH?

Honestly, I must say I have NOT missed it. It’s nice to enjoy football for what it is, and not end up screaming at the TV and ruining a Sunday over something stupid like “Damn, why did they throw it to THAT guy? I started the other guy!!!” That said, I’m still an idea man… and ... TLFpublishing@gmail.com (Todd L.

Now with those kind of numbers its no wonder that Bears fans are excited about the upcoming season. However, there will be 3 factors as to why Cutler's numbers will look more like his 2007 campaign rather than last year. The first key factor will be the Bears schedule. Last year Cutler ... steve2irish@yahoo.com (stjackso) NFL 2009-08-12T10:12:08-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/fantasy/14226 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/fantasy/14226 Every year the sleeper pick is what wins fantasy championship.

Rule 1: Stat values have got to be set fairly to attract players. No one is going to stay in your league if you have 1 point per yard assigned to every position. QB's have astronomical yards compared to RB's. Don't do that unless you just want to win. Let’s be honest if you commish, no one has a better chance of winning unless you are ... sethleewertz@yahoo.com (WolfSol) NFL 2009-07-28T05:26:29-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bears/14129 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bears/14129 Ever since the April trade that sent Kyle Orton, Robert Ayers and a 2010 first round pick to Denver for Jay Cutler, national writers and Bears fans have lauded the acquisition as someone who could finally answer the questions at QB that the team has had for decades and could be the guy to lead the team to the promised land nearly 25 years after the historically dominant 1985 team.

He makes a great point because there are key roster moves, injuries, etc...that can impact a particular player's fantasy production (example: key offensive line injuries or roster moves that might affect a running back's ability to ... info@realfootball365.com (Hugo Guzman) NFL 2009-07-15T21:29:51-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/dolphins/13870 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/dolphins/13870 With the Miami Dolphins ready to make significant decisions pertaining to this weekend's NFL draft, the need to prognosticate on who will be the next big deal in South Florida has become more important than ever. Regardless of which draft expert you like to listen to, here's a wake-up call: They're guessing. Nevertheless, they are educated guesses. With a little help from ESPN's Tim Graham, who ...

The Dolphins' Pennington took the award for the second time in three years, an impressive feat for a player many had given up on. Commentary: ...

While Miami fans are probably still giddy over their team's shocking division title, they should be at least a bit concerned about the Ravens' ability to excel in a hostile road environment.

Consistency is key for the 49ers to grow as a team, and it all starts under center. Is there any reason not to point to Hill as the starter for San Fran? Commentary: Keeping Hill, who is already under contract for next season, as the starter will allow the 49ers' offense to jell. The bigger questions ...

Why is it, then, that all I see on ESPN and other sports networks is Brett Favre's gray-bearded mug frowning?

Once the cold weather hit, the entire team would shrink like other parts of the male anatomy. That isn't the case with the 2008 Dolphins, who have won all three of their December games. This should give plenty of reason to think that the Dolphins will go to the Meadowlands and beat the slumping New ...

Commentary: The 49ers are 26th in rushing offense, largely because teams stack the box against them. The way to cure that is to draft a top-notch receiver who will make defenses think twice about disrespecting San ... Adamleetlu@gmail.com (Adam Sweeney) NFL 2008-12-24T02:00:37-05:00
