It is always nice to have a picture or two of your favorite fantasy players. Here are just a few of our top selected photos (provided by PicApp.com) of New York Jets running back Shonn Greene.
Before you’re 2010 fantasy football draft begins, it’s always good to see the schedule of particular players you’re prospecting for your future team.
While there is not guaranteeing which teams will be strong and which teams will be weak in a given season, it’s still good to have an idea of the opponents your players will face.
Once the 2010 – 2011 season has started, we will find out which teams are for real and which teams are going to fold up. Who would have thought the Bengals would go undefeated in their division and the Titans would start out losing their first six games in 2009?
Throughout the season, you can always come back to our site and use our schedules for each team and player for your reference. Alternatively, you can also print out or download the schedule as well.

2009 Fantasy Year In Review: Admittedly I didn’t pay much attention to
Shonn Greene before the 2009 NFL draft but when putting together last years’ fantasy rankings I was blown away when I watched a
few highlight videos of him in college. With
Thomas Jones and
Leon Washington in a hold out, Greene was a hot name around OTA’s as it looked like the team might trade on of their talented runners.

Instead of a trade, both veterans came back by July camps and Greene struggled in pass protection, thus falling down to the third runner on the depth chart. In October Greene had a strong game against the Raiders after Washington went down with a nasty broken fibula injury. That injury ended Washington’s season and one would have thought Greene would split time with Jones the rest of the way.
Oddly enough that didn’t happen as the team leaned on Jones for most of the second half and Greene just gave him a breather here and there. By the final games of the season Greene was seeing more carries and in the playoffs, he took it to another level.
Jones had a knee problem in the playoffs and that left the door open for Greene as he went over 100 yards rushing against the Bengals and Chargers. In both games Greene flashed break away ability for long touchdown runs at crucial moments in each game.
By the AFC Championship game Greene was the no doubt lead runner in this offense and was a stud in playoff fantasy football.
2010 NFL Fantasy Football Player Rankings: The hype train started on Greene well before Jones was released from the team in March as certain fantasy owners are geeked about his ability in the Jets’ offense. Seeing what he accomplished in January and what Jones has done in this offense each of the past two years it’s easy to see why.
I was a little concerned that LaDainian Tomlinson would split time with Greene this year as the team might not be ready to hand him a 300 touch role just yet. In April, the team noted that Greene is expected to be the teams main runner and starter and this makes sense as he’s clearly the best option on the team.
One concern I do have for Greene is that the team parted ways with Alan Faneca after the NFL draft, and they are likely to go with second round pick Vladimir Ducasse instead. Ducasse has talent and he will have talented lineman around him but at this time he’s not Faneca even at a declined productivity.
Mock Madness
Greene seems to be a consistent name that is going in the late first round to early second round of many fantasy mock drafts so far. In one twelve team mock I participated in he even went as high as seventh overall!
With that said mocks are definitely not the end all as fantasy owners know these drafts don’t count towards their actual team and many use this time to experiment with different options and scenario. Still, with Greene going this high it should tell fantasy owners they will have to invest in him as one of their top fantasy players if they want him on draft day.
If your ok with having a player that hasn’t actually produced a strong fantasy season as one of your top players, Greene is a good option.
