FANTASY WORLD
As an OSU grad, it hurt to see the news about Justin Blackmon. Maybe the Jaguars will put in place similar restrictions the ...
A couple thoughts with fantasy drafts just four months away.
Is Eddie Lacy the only back worth a pick?
Absolutely ...
No one thought Adrian Peterson was going to be 100 percent, much less get 9 yards away from breaking Eric Dickerson’s single ...
What a game last night. Drew Brees put up 400 yards and 3 TDs and Aaron Rodgers threw for 300 and another 3 TDs.
And some second round draft pick from Kentucky named Randall Cobb made a 32-yard score and a kickoff return for a touchdown.
Mark Ingram? The rookie going highest in drafts? Didn't show much.
Cobb looks like the third receiver in Green Bay (sorry James Jones). But who would think Devery Henderson, who was rumored to get cut before the season started, would also get 9 targets? Playing from behind does wonders for fantasy value of average guys.
By the way, it was reported after the game that Cobb made two mistakes on his two big plays. He ran the wrong route on his touchdown and then he also took that kickoff deep into his endzone -- eight yards to be exact. No special teams coach ever thinks that is a good idea.
So while he showed up Ingram this time, I wouldn't say pick him off of waivers just yet.
Also, Jimmy Graham looks like the guy the Saints wanted Jeremy Shockey to be. Darren Sproles is going to be a player in PPR leagues. He almost had two TDs in the game. His coach is already saying that James Starks is going to get more carries.
