    Sleeper Defense this Season?

    Cleveland Browns and New Orleans Saints. Both have defensive coordinators with aggressive, attacking schemes. And both have quality returners. Both also drafted/acquired free agent defensive players to address their immediate needs.

    Rank the Next Tier of WRs

    There is talk of using Gio out of the slot some (part of the reason they let Hawkins leave), so I expect his catches to increase!

    Super deep sleepers of 2014

    Here is a longshot who may be worth considering, especially with Moreno injured (although I only considered Moreno as a one-year stop gap anyway). I grabbed Damien Williams awhile back as I thought he fits well in the new offensive scheme plus would have little to overcome competition wise over the next two years. Today's article seems to validate my hope... http://www.thephinsider.com/2014/7/16/5904081/miami-dolphins-training-camp-scouting-reports-rb-damien-williams

    Who are you gambling on this year?

    Latimer was held out of OTA's due to his recovery from injury...
  5. I'm thinking Dexter McCluster might be worth a roster spot... 4.53 speed, 37.5" vertical, 20 reps on bench, and an elite agility score of 10.79. In addition, his coach immediately paid at the top of the RB market for him (3 years @ $9M, $4.5M guaranteed) when free agency opened. And, he is projected to play the same role that last year produced a combined line of 69/974/8 for a final RB ranking of RB13.

    Fitz or Wayne

    Fitz without question. Remember that Wayne was moved all over, and Luck locked in on him. That won't happen this year, plus they will run a lot more this year as well as use their TEs more. Keep in mind too that the Colts will employ a pass-catching fullback as well (which may negatively impact Dwayne Allen too). Even if Arians were still there, I would project a drop off. Now that Hamilton is running the offense, I think it will be a significant drop off. Last year, Wayne was the WR4 weeks 1-12. He was WR36 weeks 13-17, and that was with still getting 10+ targets per game, something that I don't think is sustainable in the new scheme.

    keeper value for 2013

    They are really close, but I would lean toward Alexander with the better QB and WR8 production weeks 10-17 over Shorts and his QB situation (keep in mind Shorts has had several concussions, so nobody on this list is clean).
  8. Remember, this is just coming from one local guy. I wouldn't put much into it, but I wouldn't be crazy about it if I were a Rice owner, either.

    Predict how the Aaron hernandez saga ends

    Given that the victim's girlfriend and Ahern's girlfriend are sisters, and given the open body in close proximity to Ahern's house, I lean heavily toward the theory that the killing was a message sent from a rival drug dealer type. It seems very plausible to me that the destroying of evidence was to cover up the drug trafficking efforts rather than the murder. Regarding the Florida incident, it is highly plausible that Ahern pointed the gun at the guy and the guy went to knock the gun away from his face, it went off, grazing the guy's arm and then hitting him in the face. I'm no left-wing liberal, in fact just the opposite. However, I do think we need to define both extreme ends of the spectrum of possibilities before calling the guy a murderer or accessory to murder. No gun yet, right? I'm also no fan of Ahern, and I am definitely not advocating that he did nothing wrong, but murder seems a stretch based on what little evidence has arisen. This case should continue to be interesting until all the facts come out (I'm guessing Ray Lewis is thinking "deja vu all over again").

    Mid-Late WR selections

    Gordon only misses TWO games (loses 4 game pay checks)

    Mid-Late WR selections

    Not a fan of Edelman or Jones, but I agree with everyone else on your list. Be aware though, that in a recent dynasty startup Maclin went at 7.03, Shorts at 7.04, and Brown at 9.02 so Maclin and Brown are going two rounds earlier.

    Top Ten Impact Rookies - Doug Orth

    He put him at 13 http://www.fftoday.com/articles/orth/13_pma_rookies_11_20.html

    Noooooo! Don't do it!

    They didn't dump him. He was contemplating retirement and just recently said he would like to come back. Detroit wants him back, but not at Hanson's asking price. And Akers was injured last year...the year before he was unbelievable.

    2013 ROOKIE SKILL POSITION FANTASY PROSPECTS

    "I could see Utah State's Kerwynn Williams, a 5' 9" 195 bundle of speed and quicks getting lost in the sea of 3rd tier RBs and make it down to 4.02. i'm a believer in the kid as a guy to take a chance on late in your rookie draft." Hey Matt, I wouldn't count on Kerwynn Williams making it past 3.05 You could beat me to Mike Ford with the 4.02 (I have the 4.05)...

    2013 ROOKIE SKILL POSITION FANTASY PROSPECTS

    RE: Mike Ford, the mystery man. Obviously tested great. Here is a quote I found regarding him: "But Ford never completely grabbed the starting job and held on tightly. He was probably the fastest of the LSU backs last season, but didn't block as well in pass protection, struggled as a receiver and also had fumble problems." If he is still there at 4.05 I will gladly take a chance on him, but not before...
