Posted: 16th October 2009 by FantasyDC in NFL
(Check out our Week 6 Waiver Hawk Article & insanely in-depth AFC Team Notes ) The last couple weeks have been unkind to me. Fluke plays and late long distance TDs are what make fantasy football so great. Last week I won a matchup on the final Ronnie Brown TD.

Fantasy DC’s Week Four: Buy/Sell Report

Posted: 7th October 2009 by FantasyDC in NFL
Steve Smith NYG, WR11 receptions, 134 yards, two TDs Jon DoveùBuyùI think SmithÆs production has more to do with Eli Manning than SmithÆs overall skill.á It is kind of what Jay Cutler is doing with the Bears receivers.á However, that doesnÆt mean that I am selling.á Pick up Smith because he will continue to have a good season and beyond. Billy SmithùBuyùI was the organizer of the Smith bandwagon this preseason. It ...

Fantasy DC’s Week Four: Waiver Wire Rush

Posted: 6th October 2009 by FantasyDC in NFL
In all my years playing fantasy football, this season seems to have played closer to ôchalkö than most others. There havenÆt been nearly as many busts as previous years (although L.T., McNabb, and Eddie Royal fans would argue otherwise), and the credit has to go to a lack of major injuries to high-profile players.á On the flip side, with a few exceptions, there havenÆt been a staggering number of major booms either.á ...

Running Backs (5-1) Maurice Jones-Drew (18th) and Steve Slaton (fifth) ...
