Pre-Combine Rookie WR Rankings- Dynasty Football     We are months away from the NFL draft, let alone any rookie drafts, but Id like to get my early rookie rankings out before the combine. There will be minor changes throughout and after the scouting combine and NFL Draft but I wouldn’t expect a dramatic change. Hours and hours of film study have been put into evaluating the skills each wide receiver possesses, both positive and negative. Below there is 31 wide receivers ranked and a few skills that stood out on film.

NFC West - Hard Evidence Quarterback fr.wikipedia.org   Russell Wilson As a start to this article and dynasty NFC West run-down, I began to write some words about Russell Wilson and my stance on him from a dynasty perspective.  As I started writing about opportunity and looking into what it would take for Russell Wilson to be an elite top 5 quarterback every year,

It’s the last night before the NBA heads to New Orleans for All Star Weekend. After yesterdays flurry of 13 games, tonight is more chill, with just two games to focus on. On to some player selections (this will not be as poetic as @SaidHeHadAStory provided you yesterday) (note: The salary’s I use come from Draft Street) Kevin Durant, OKC ($22,784) @ LAL- There really is not much to say about KD anymore.  I can spit

It’s our last big night of hoops before the All-Star game. Hard to believe we are already here past the midway point of the season, and into the final stretch. Instead of my typical start and sit of my plays tonight, I’ve decided to do things a little differently. I consider the All-Star break a little holiday from daily leagues, so that’s how I’m going to treat it. I hope you enjoy reading it as

  ​ On February 19th, Lucas Oil Stadium will be the focal point of the NFL, hosting 335 draft prospects with a record 85 underclassmen, as head coaches and personnel departments reunite for the scouting combine. For dynasty owners, the combine is a critical part of the off-season and is yet another data point for the puzzle we are building. Combine numbers have the ability to inflate prospects while dropping others, I will highlight 21 players you

It’s the second to last big night before the All-Star break. Hard to believe that we are more than halfway through the season, and almost into the final stretch. It seems like the season just started! But we still have a great night of basketball ahead of us hoop heads. Seven games to look forward to tonight; four of which have a spread over 200. Personally, my favorite matchup is the Thunder/Blazers game, but more

We head into an All-Star break shortened week coming off a strange Sunday. The Pistons, coming off two straight impressive wins, fire their coach. The Clippers lay a 45 point thumping on the 76ers. Kevin Durant falls an assist short of a triple double, and Mason Plumlee was the 5th highest DS scorer with 44.75 points !! Tonight sees six games on the schedule. Our beloved 76ers return to action, as they travel north to

With the draft season upon us, it’s time to move on to the NFL Draft. Today we are going to take a quick look at my top 10 rankings for the defensive positions with some honorable mentions who just missed the list, along with the top 5 for nose tackle, kicker and punter. This is just a quick list for each position, but as we get a little farther into the offseason and we get

  While doing my Dynasty Detective Dashboard research for the NFC West installment, I started with the meat and potatoes of the article – Russell Wilson.  I’ll come right and tell you that I strongly believe that Wilson is a top 3 quarterback in the NFL not from a fantasy perspective, but from a true quarterback perspective.  I fell in love with Russell’s game very early.  Matt Waldman of footballguys.com boldly stated very early in

IDP (Individual Defensive Player) dynasty leagues are fast becoming the best way to get the most out of fantasy football. Rather than playing fantasy football with team defenses, you get to use linebackers, cornerbacks, safeties, defensive tackles, and defensive ends. Each of these players are awarded points for tackles, sacks, tackles for a loss, interceptions, forcing fumbles, and many more. How your league scores each of these statistics and the number of defensive players you must

A Saturday night with 7 NBA games on the schedule is upon us. There are several contests with pretty high totals, the greatest of which is the Nugget / Piston tilt with a 215.5 O/U. The Blazer / T’Wolves game in Minnesota also has a high total of 211 with just a 1 point spread. On to some player selections: (Note- my salaries are from Draft Street) The high priced studs: Kevin Love, MIN ($22,968)- Love

  After coming within a few plays of a Super Bowl birth in 2012, the biggest news of the offseason for the Falcons was the Tony Gonzalez retirement announcement. Whether he wanted to leave the game before his body started to break down (can you blame him?) or if he wanted to channel some Ray Lewis juju (again, can you blame him?), the football community was ready to accept that 2013 was the last year

With the draft season upon us, it’s time to move on to the NFL Draft. Today we are going to take a quick look at my top 10 rankings for the offensive positions with some honorable mentions who just missed the list, except the fullback position where I’ll only list my top 5. This is just a quick list for each position, but as we get a little farther into the offseason and we get

Ah, yes. Friday has finally come, which means another big night in the NBA for us Hoop Heads. Ten games are slated for this evening, six of which have a spread over 200 points. The most interesting matchup for me tonight is the Sixers/Lakers game. The Lakers have yet to hold a team to under 100 points this year, and the Sixers allow the most points of any team in the league. But the lineup

After a whirlwind Wednesday night, it’s time to sit back and take tonight off…..NOT!! Only two games on the schedule this evening, but that’s enough to satisfy your daily DFS craving. Neither game is expected to be an offensive show, with both totals under 200. On to some selections: (Note- my salaries come from draft street) Steph Curry, GS vs CHI ($19,096)- The highest priced and most obvious play of the night.  Chicago is known as

Tonight, if you’re like me, is one of my favorite nights to play fantasy hoops. Only four games to choose from, but this is where you can truly shine and win some serious cash in daily leagues. Tonight I am slightly favoring two games more than the other two. The Lakers/Timberwolves game has the highest over/under at 215. The other game I like a lot tonight is the Warriors/Bobcats game, though I have to admit

  It’s everyones favorite time of year, yes that is right, it’s NFL Draft time. Okay, so maybe it isn’t every ones favorite time of year, but it sure is mine. It is time for teams to start looking at who are the best players in the draft and who they want to try to draft for their team. Opinions will vary, debates will happen and it is one of the most fun and exciting

With the draft time upon us, it’s time to take a very early look at what each team might do come draft day. I’m not going to mock any trades yet, though I fully believe there will be some early on day one. I’ll add in-depth explanations as we get a little farther into the process. For now, enjoy my first three round mock draft.   1. Texans- Teddy Bridgewater QB L-Ville 2. Rams- Jake

Hope all you NBA DFS’ers survived yesterday without an NBA daily game to play. At least there was a great Super Bowl to watch last night to not think about hoops. Tonight, back to the grind as we tackle an eleven game NBA schedule.  As I normally do, I like to look at the highest totals on the board with the tightest spread.  The clear cut choice in that area is the Clippers / Nuggets

NFC EAST Hard Evidence www.thefeaturepresentation.com   Quarterback Every so often as a detective you’ll encounter a case that involves a guy that has been chewed up, spit out, and left for dead.  His wife left him, he lost his job, and he just lost a gasket along the way.  There isn’t a guy out there that fits this mold

So the month of January is in the books, hopefully it was a profitable one for all you DFS players out there.  I thought I’d have some fun and take a look at some January #’s for you.  * (As with most of my columns, the totals / prices are Draft Street based) Top 20 January Scorers 1) K Durant- 774.75 2) C Anthony 641.5 3) Al Jefferson 619 4) B Griffin 613.25 5) A
