QB Tony RomoQB Jay CutlerRB Willie ParkerRB Ronnie BrownRB Cadillac WilliamsRB Fred TaylorWR Chad JohnsonWR Andre JohnsonWR Chris ChambersWR Mark ClaytonWR Vincent JacksonTE Antonio GatesTE Eric JohnsonK Shayne Graham K David AkersDef MiamiDef CarolinaDR U: Similar to what Drew Brees did last season, I think Tony Romo is going to emerge onto the fantasy scene this year. I am not saying he will put up quite the numbers Brees did in 2006, but I am stating that you should be in good shape with him as your quarterback. Cutler is a great fantasy No.2, and if Romo struggles, then you should be able to insert Cutler into your lineup and still......

Ask DR U: Are They Worth Keeping?
2007-08-09 14:00:00
Bill asks, I am in a keeper league that allows three keepers, but each keeper costs a draft pick, two rounds higher than the previous year. Who should I keep from the players below? Joseph Addai (will cost my round 3 pick)Carson Palmer (will cost my round 8 pick)Willis McGahee (will cost my round 9 pick)Maurice Jones-Drew (will cost my round 11 pick) DR U: I subscribe to the idea that the one of the keys to winning leagues is finding the best players possible for the best values possible. All four of the players that you have are at an outstanding value. Let's pretend for a moment that this was not a keeper league, would you draft Addai in......
 
Ask DR U: Can't Keep Them All
2007-08-08 14:00:00
Mike asks, We are having a draft in our two keeper 10-team league, and my problem is who to keep. I have five very good players that I must choose from (listed below). L.T. is obvious, but there are good reasons for me to keep the others as well. Gore is solid and impressive, Bush has huge upside, and Addai is the man this year with a great offense around him. What do you think Dr. U?RB LaDainian TomlinsonRB Frank GoreRB Reggie BushRB Joseph AddaiQB Donovan McNabbDR U: My guess is that the rest of your league does not feel sorry for you that you have this kind of problem. This is like deciding if you want to keep the......
 
Ask DR U: He is a Keeper?
2007-08-07 14:00:00
Gary asks, I am in a ten team league and can keep two of these players: Jay Cutler, DeAngelo Williams, Brandon Jacobs, Tatum Bell, Marion Barber III, Reggie Brown, Bernard Berrian and Vernon Davis. I also have an extra 3rd and 4th round picks in the draft. Which two are keepers? And do you have any draft day advice? Thank you for all you do all year long; year in and year out! DR U: Marion Barber III and Jay Cutler are your keepers! Barber is a touchdown machine, and Cutler is going to be a star in this league. Meanwhile, Tatum Bell has not shown he can be a reliable franchise running back, which is one of the reasons......
 
Ask DR U: 2nd Opinion Please
2007-08-06 14:00:00
Chris asks, Last year, you evaluated my team, and I appreciated it. Please look at this year's team. I think I will wait until after pre-season and then possibly trade a running back for either a better receiver or tight End. What do you think? QB- Marc BulgerQB- Phillip RiversWR-Santana Moss, Reggie Brown, Vincent Jackson, Santonio HolmesRB- Joseph Addai, Ronnie Brown, Edgerrin James, Tatum Bell, Ladell Betts, Jerious NorwoodTE- Randy McMichaelK- Josh ScobeeDef- Pittsburgh DR U: I think you are set at quarterback. Bulger should put up some Herculean numbers this season, and if he happens to get injured, Rivers should be more than capable of racking up big stats for your team. Your receivers are young and all have......

2007 Fantasy Football Player Profile-Cedric Benson
2007-08-02 14:00:00
RB Cedric Benson, Chicago Bears 2006 Stats: 647 rushing yards, 54 receiving yards, 6 total TDsProjected 2007 Stats: 1129 rushing yards, 204 receiving yards, 13 total TDsProjected Fantasy Round: 2nd RoundRunning backs to be Picked ahead of Cedric Benson: LaDainian Tomlinson, Larry Johnson, Steven Jackson, etc. Fantasy Outlook: Why should you draft Cedric Benson: Cedric Benson is now the featured back for the Chicago Bears, and Thomas Jones was able to accumulate 1210 rushing yards in that role in 2006. Despite never having more than 16 carries in a game, Benson still was able to muster six touchdowns in 2006.  In 2007, Benson will be able to have 20 or more carries a game, which will allow him to get into the flow of the offense, which should translate into solid fantasy numbers.  Why you may want to stay away from drafting Cedric Benson: Benson has yet to play in all 16 games in his first two seasons of his career.  Therefore, it remains to be seen if he can handle ...
 
2007 Fantasy Football Player Profile-Lee Evans
2007-08-01 14:00:00
WR Lee Evans, Buffalo Bills 2006 Stats: 82 receptions, 1292 receiving yards, 8 TDsProjected 2007 Stats: 81 receptions, 1324 receiving yards, 8 TDsProjected Fantasy Round: 4th Round Wide Receivers to be Picked ahead of Lee Evans: Terrell Owens, Chad Johnson, Steve Smith, etc. Fantasy Outlook: Why should you draft Lee Evans: Lee Evans has yet to miss a single game in his three year career.  Evans finished with 48 catches in 2004 and 2005, but in 2006, he had his receptions balloon up to 82.  Last season, Evans torched the Houston Texans in Week 11 to the tune of 11 receptions for 265 yards and two touchdowns.  He also had three receptions that went for over 75 yards last season, and he ended 2006 by scoring a touchdown in each of his last four games. Why you may want to stay away from drafting Lee Evans: Evans is inconsistent as one week he can put up 265 receiving yards, but the next week the opposing defense can shut him down.  For instance, in 2006 he was una...
 
2007 Fantasy Football Player Profile-JaMarcus Russell
2007-07-31 14:00:00
QB JaMarcus Russell, Oakland Raiders 2006 Stats: N/AProjected 2007 Stats: 2420 passing yards, 11 total TDs, 17 INTsProjected Fantasy Round: UndraftedQuarterbacks to be Picked ahead of JaMarcus Russell: Peyton Manning, Carson Palmer, Drew Brees, etc. Fantasy Outlook: Why should you draft JaMarcus Russell: JaMarcus Russell finished his career at LSU with a sparkling 25-4 record, and he threw for 52 touchdown passes and had an eye-popping 61.9 completion percentage.  There is very little doubt that the starting quarterback job for the Oakland Raiders in 2007 will eventually be given to Russell, and he certainly has the skills to make the most of that opportunity.  Why you may want to stay away from drafting JaMarcus Russell: Russell is currently holding out of training camp, which will have him behind in learning the plays as well as in his timing with his receivers.  Even if Russell ends his holdout and becomes the starter, he will likely struggle in his rookie year a...
 
2007 Fantasy Football Player Profile-Jeremy Shockey
2007-07-30 14:00:00
TE Jeremy Shockey, New York Giants 2006 Stats: 623 receiving yards, 7 TDsProjected 2007 Stats: 777 receiving yards, 8 TDsProjected Fantasy Round: 6th RoundTight Ends to be Picked ahead of Jeremy Shockey: Antonio Gates and Tony Gonzalez Fantasy Outlook: Why should you draft Jeremy Shockey: Over the last two seasons, Jeremy Shockey has averaged 757 receiving yards and seven touchdowns.  Last season, Shockey had nine games where he had at least four receptions. Why you may want to stay away from drafting Jeremy Shockey: Shockey has yet to play a full 16 game season in his five year career. In 2006, Shockey failed to hit the century mark in receiving yards in any game, and he was held scoreless in nine contests.       Bottom Line: Shockey is still one of the premier fantasy tight ends in the league, and he will likely be drafted in the middle rounds.  Technorati Tags: NFL, Football">Fantasy Football, Fantasy Football Player Profile, Fantasy Football Player Outlo...
 
2007 Fantasy Football Player Profile-Deuce McAllister
2007-07-27 14:00:00
RB Deuce McAllister, New Orleans Saints 2006 Stats: 1057 rushing yards, 198 receiving yards, 10 total TDsProjected 2007 Stats: 1007 rushing yards, 165 receiving yards, 9 total TDsProjected Fantasy Round: 3rd Round Running backs to be Picked ahead of Deuce McAllister: LaDainian Tomlinson, Larry Johnson, Steven Jackson, etc. Fantasy Outlook: Why should you draft Deuce McAllister: Deuce McAllister has rushed for over 1000 yards in four out of his last five seasons in the NFL.  Last season, McAllister eclipsed 100 rushing yards in four contests, including three out his last four regular season games, and if you were to include the playoffs, it would be four out of his last six games.  Why you may want to stay away from drafting Deuce McAllister: McAllister will have to split carries with Reggie Bush, and the more the Saints work to try and get Bush more touches, the less opportunities there will be for McAllister. Last season, McAllister was limited to under 50 rushing yard...
 
2007 Fantasy Football Player Profile-Joey Harrington
2007-07-26 14:00:00
QB Joey Harrington, Atlanta Falcons 2006 Stats: 2236 passing yards, 12 total TDs, 15 INTsProjected 2007 Stats: 2823 passing yards, 18 total TDs, 13 INTsProjected Fantasy Round: UndraftedQuarterbacks to be Picked ahead of Joey Harrington: Peyton Manning, Carson Palmer, Drew Brees, etc.Outlook: Why should you draft Joey Harrington: Joey Harrington has been named the starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons at least until Michael Vick's legal matters have reached a conclusion.  There is a realistic chance that Vick will not be able to play at all in 2007, and he may never play in Atlanta again.  Last season, Harrington lit up the Green Bay Packers to the tune of 414 passing yards in Week 7, and he had three games where he threw for multiple touchdowns for the Miami Dolphins.  Why you may want to stay away from drafting Joey Harrington: Harrington has not been able to play in all 16 games since 2004.  It also should be noted that Harrington has never had a seas...
 
2007 Fantasy Football Player Profile-Laurence Maroney
2007-07-25 14:00:00
RB Laurence Maroney, New England Patriots 2006 Stats: 745 rushing yards, 194 receiving yards, 7 total TDsProjected 2007 Stats: 1095 rushing yards, 310 receiving yards, 11 total TDsProjected Fantasy Round: 2nd RoundRunning backs to be Picked ahead of Laurence Maroney: LaDainian Tomlinson, Larry Johnson, Steven Jackson, etc. Fantasy Outlook: Why should you draft Laurence Maroney: Laurence Maroney is a hard nosed runner that fights for extra yards, which with more touches should translate into him rushing for more yards and denting the scoreboard more often.  Maroney finished with just six rushing touchdowns in 2006, but he reached the end zone three of his last four games that he played. Why you may want to stay away from drafting Laurence Maroney: Last season, Maroney only had one game where he had over 100 rushing yards, and he had nine games where he failed to score a rushing touchdown. Maroney has also been banged up quite a bit in his only season in the NFL, which means he...
 
2007 Fantasy Football Player Profile-T.J. Houshmandzadeh
2007-07-24 14:00:00
WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Cincinnati Bengals 2006 Stats: 90 receptions, 1081 receiving yards, 9 TDsProjected 2007 Stats: 101 receptions, 1212 receiving yards, 10 TDsProjected Fantasy Round: 3rd Round Wide Receivers to be Picked ahead of T.J. Houshmandzadeh: Terrell Owens, Chad Johnson, Steve Smith, etc. Fantasy Outlook: Why should you draft T.J. Houshmandzadeh: T.J. Houshmandzadeh emerged onto the fantasy scene last year, because of his play on-the-field, and the commercial off-the-field that had a fantasy owner saying his name as T.J. Who's Your Mama. Last season, Houshmandzadeh made a name for himself as he was able to haul in 90 receptions and nine touchdowns as he flourished from lining up opposite Chad Johnson.  He also had at least six receptions in nine games, and he was able to score a touchdown in eight contests. Why you may want to stay away from drafting T.J. Houshmandzadeh: Houshmandzadeh has only been able to play in all 16 games in two out of his five seasons in ...

Jerry asks, Recently I landed a spot in a 20 team league.  The league starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 Def./ST, 1 WR/TE, and 1 K.  I never knew a 20 team draft would be so difficult. I tried to get Adrian Peterson to cuff Benson, but he was taken two picks before I was ready to draft him. What do you think of my team? QB- Jay Cutler and Alex SmithRB- Reggie Bush, Cedric Benson, Michael Turner, and Jason WrightWR- Hines Ward, Reggie Brown, Anthony Gonzalez, Drew Bennett, Samie Parker and Kevin WalterTE- Heath MillerK- GostkowskiDef- 49ers and Giants DR U: I know that it is very difficult to get a team that looks stacked on paper in a 20 man league.  In order to have success in that big of a league, I feel it is important to take a couple fliers, which you have done with Anthony Gonzalez and Jason Wright.  Also, you must land a reserve or two that hopefully will end up getting a chance to start later in the season, which you have in Michael Turner.  It is als...
