Deeper into free agency we go, as free agents are ready to sign new deals as the lockout has come to pass. In part, one of my free agent trackers, I covered the notable signings and trades from Tuesday through Thursday. As I write this, teams now have the ability to sign their agreed contracts, [...]

The craziness is only getting warmed up but by Tuesday night, we saw a bunch of key players either sign or agree to terms on a new contract. Some players like offensive lineman Doug Free signed new deals with their former teams, while others like prized middle linebacker Paul Poszlusny has reportedly agreed with the [...]

The Baltimore Ravens were expected to make some cuts this week as they had to weave their way under the new salary cap, but they were only a few million over, and it seemed all they needed to do was release Willis McGahee to get that done. Baltimore did, in fact, inform McGahee he would [...]

For the second off-season in a row, IDP fantasy owners are faced with an interesting situation as to which linemen is worth having after Justin Tuck. On the other side of the line, you have three talented individuals in Osi Umenyiora, Mathias Kiwanuka and Jason Pierre-Paul. It would seem that JPP would be the least [...]

Another mock draft up as I took part in an eight team mock over on ESPN.com, and have the results listed below. While free mock drafts on ESPN are useful, they are clearly not the final stamp on exactly where players are going to end up at your live draft. However, I find it interesting [...]

Until the day comes to pass that it’s clear Troy Polamalu isn’t a great player in the league, it seems people will still overvalue him in IDP fantasy football leagues. I really don’t care if you’re involved in a heavy big play scoring as his tackle numbers (and health concerns) just aren’t high enough to [...]

While I have my issues with James Laurinaitis’s fantasy value around the web and in this ADP listing, I can’t deny that he has the potential to be a top ten linebacker for IDP fantasy football leagues. Furthermore, for the most part, the ADP values below, brought to you from My Fantasy League, are a [...]

If you’re looking to play in an auction fantasy football league, ESPN has a free mock draft lobby to help you get ready for your live draft. Over the years, I found that you tend to see the same trends or personalities in many of these draft rooms. You always seem to have an owners [...]

With DeAngelo Williams set to hit free agency, it looks like Jonathan Stewart will finally get the starting job for the Panthers to begin the year. Sadly, the Panthers have fallen a long way from where they were in Stewart’s rookie season, when they were riding high atop the NFC South. Because of Stewart’s continued [...]
