Coach Mike Shannahan says that he doesn’t feel comfortable satrting Torain this week because he only has about a week and a half of practice time in and only a week of full contact practice with no restrictions. He also said that he might be forced to play him. This doesn’t bode well for fantasy [...]

When rounding out your fantasy lineup, you have roughly three options. 1) Pick up a guy who is established in the league already and will get you consistent numbers throughout the year. 2) Pick up a rookie and take a huge chance that he will get consistent playing time and produce better than an established [...]
Sleeper Alert: Ryan Torain, Denver RB

It is time for this sleeper to wake up. Ryan Torain has been getting a ton of press lately. The guy hasn’t even played a single down in the NFL yet but that doesn’t stop fantasy sports dorks all around from hyping the hell out of him. It is understandable though. Torain has a great [...]

The real question is when will Marcus Camby show up? I have had Camby on most of my fantasy squads over the past few years. I’ve had him for full seasons and I’ve also had him for injury plagued seasons. This season is not starting off on the right foot (no pun intended) with Camby [...]

Wilson Chandler of the New York Knicks is being compared to Shawn Marion by new Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni in a roundabout way. “The guy that jumps out is Shawn Marion, he’s what we’d like him to be” D’Antoni said. D’Antoni feels that Chandler has the athletic ability to play a similar role to what [...]
Last pick of the fantasy draft… Jamaal Tinsley

He isn’t on your Big Board. He isn’t even in your thoughts on draft day. He isn’t even allowed to practice with his current team. Jamaal Tinsley has worn out his welcome in Indiana. Not so much for lack of skills or on-court production, but mostly for being prone to injury, a large chunk of [...]
