Denver has to be +2 or more in turnovers to have ANY chance.

You should check out the history of how few times the spread has come into play in the SB. I believe the spread has only factored in in 6 of 49 SBs.

What is your confusion? Freeman, Bortles, and Robinson went late last year, broke out, and will go in the top six rounds this year.

You don't have to give up a ton of points to get beaten easily. That Denver offense that could barely move the ball against a middle of the road Pats D is gonna get dump trucked by the Panthers D, especially if they get down early and have to abandon the run.

It's doubtful those two make you anything close to one of the favorites to win the league, but what isn't in doubt is where your strategy will land you in the standings in a few years.

And as I showed you with Hightower, just because a player was used doesn't mean he broke out. Breakout players get chosen in the first six rounds of the next draft. Lockett won't be drafted that high in a single redraft league next year.

There is one way the Broncos win and that's if the Panthers go straight up Cardinals and turn the ball over all game long. If the Panthers are within one in the turnover battle they cannot lose. If they are tied or ahead in turnovers they win by double digits. This is an EASY call.

Bell and Kelce. Gives you a stud at two shallow positions.

What about a QB to groom behind Romo? None of the mutts they are carrying right now can play worth a damn. You don't get many chances to grab a top QB prospect.

Be careful what you wish for.

You may very well be right, and if he exceeds those numbers this year I would consider that being him breaking out. Maybe my definition is different but I consider a breakout player to be a guy who quickly becomes a must play each week in most every league.

Great list.

So what? Tim Hightower was on a lot of championship teams, did he breakout?

What? 51 catches for 664 yards and 6 TDs is a breakout? If it was guaranteed he'd put up those same numbers every year he would go undrafted. He had a nice rookie year and a nice start to his career, but that's it.

The end of his prime was 2013.

I wouldn't say he's broken out just yet. He's certainly not useable in fantasy unless you're in a 16+ team league.

Love this.

Cleveland isn't letting Gordon go, they are drafting a QB and they sure as hell are gonna want him to have someone to throw to.

I've cashed on the Panthers two straight weeks and am planning on doing so again next Sunday.

Sorry, but that money is gone.

If that's the case then they still don't have their guy.

Aw to hell with that, if a guys in the league he's fair game. I'd be angry if that trade happened in my league, but I'd be angrier that I hadn't been the one to capitalize on B's stupidity.

There certainly are, but sometimes it's in the best interest of the league to weed out a really bad owner and replace him with someone who has a clue. The fact that there are different levels of owners is one of the main reasons fantasy is a lot more than just luck as many claim.

Very true. Dynasties more than any other seperate good owners from bad. Mistakes in a redraft only hurt you for a year, mistakes in dynasty can haunt you for a decade.

So, as I already said, 99 times out of 100 team A just got handed Fournette on a platter. It's a BAD trade, no matter how you want to spin it.
