For What It’s Worth… Fantasy Football’s Winners and Losers for Week 16

Most of you will have finished your fantasy season over the weekend. For those few of you who were winners, congratualations. For the rest of you, I feel your pain. Week 16 Fantasy Winners Jerome Simpson – Who is that, you ask? I’ll tell you. He’s a 24 year-old, 6-foot-2, 195 pound wide receiver for [...]

Flukie’s Fibbets Week 3

I am all about the speculative fantasy football pickup. Trust me when I tell you Hank Baskett isn’t it! Did I pick him up for 4 hours? Yes…but then I realized the more intelligent speculative play was Chris Ivory. Ivory will be the #2 back in NO by next week and with Pierre’s injury history [...]

Fantasy Surprises Week 1

Well it was a surprising week. Who would have predicted that Mark Clayton would score 22 point in a PPR league. He had 119 yards and 10 receptions. I did write a piece saying I thought Clayton would become the number 1 in STL. I never thought it would have happened after week 1. I [...]

Eanie, Meanie, For Week 1 Don’t Start Beanie

Rule of thumb has been, if your fantasy players are going up against the pitiful Rams DST, they are a must-start. On paper, starting Beanie Wells against the porous Rams’ defense should be a no-brainer. However, I’m not starting him this week and I’m here to tell you not to start him either. Wells has [...]

The Flukie AC Fantasy Challenge

Roster for TD Only League

So now that I have gotten my soft side out (my previous piece) lets get down to business. I had the 5th draft position and somehow someway Adrian Peterson fell to me. I’m surprised but stranger things have happened in a TD only league. No need to explain the AP pick onto round 2. In [...]

WRs Who have Faltered / WRs Who have Risen

I have to acknowledge I am disappointed in the Oakland WRs. I banked on Schilens and Darrius Heyward-Bey becoming relevant in fantasy. That bank is now empty. I held on to Schilens has long as I could. Everything coming out of Oakland is negative in regards to his status. The foot has turned into a [...]

How to Approach an Auction Draft

There are numerous ways to approach an auction. I am going to highlight 3 ways that I have found successful. This is assuming a total of $100, 16 roster spots, PPR league. 1. Shock and Awe – Similar to a “studs and scrubs” approach in a keeper league. Overbid your competition to guarantee greats. An example [...]
