If you are looking for a fantasy football sleeper for Week 2 of the fantasy season, target one of these players. These fantasy sleepers can help you take home a Week 2 victory.
QB Jason Campbell, Washington Redskins
At the end of the Redskins game in Week 1, Jason Campbell seemed to find his groove. Going against the St. Louis Rams, he should find a healthy amount of success.
RB Larry Johnson, Kansas City Chiefs
Larry Johnson didn’t look good in Week 1 but he’s going against the Oakland Raiders in Week 2. LJ knows that his time at starter may be running out …read more

Although the NFL offseason has just begun, Larry Johnson of the Kansas City Chiefs has already made it known that he’d like to be elsewhere. Johnson, who was once a fantasy football powerhouse, didn’t name any teams that he’d like to join.
Last season, Johnson had his second consecutive disappointing fantasy season. In 2006, Johnson had 1789 yards and 17 touchdowns. However, over the last two season, Johnson has only been able to total less than 1400 yards and eight touchdowns.
Part of the problem for Johnson is that the Chiefs simply aren’t that good. They’ve gone through a youth movement and …read more

QB Brett Favre, New York Jets
In Week 4 of the fantasy football season, Brett Favre had one of the best games of his life. The soon to be 39-year-old quarterback had six touchdown passes to go along with 289 yards.
RB Larry Johnson, Kansas City Chiefs
Once upon a time Larry Johnson was a fantasy phenom. Those days might be coming back again if Johnson’s Week 4 production of 198 yards and two touchdowns is any indication.
WR Laveranues Coles, New York Jets
Favre’s favorite target on his historic day was Laveranues Coles. Coles finished the game with three touchdown receptions and 105 yards. …read more

Picking the best possible running back with your first round draft pick is a great way to get your fantasy football season off on the right start. Here is our updated fantasy running back rankings for 2008 fantasy football:
1. LaDainian Tomlinson – Tomlinson should be a stud once again.
2. Adrian Peterson – AP has the high ceiling of anyone in fantasy football.
3. Brian Westbrook – Westbrook is an all-around producer on the field.
4. Steven Jackson – Somewhat of a risk but should be very solid.
5. Marion Barber III – Likely to be a touchdown machine this year.

In 2008 fantasy football drafts, your first round pick is the most important pick you will make in the draft. A bad first round pick can doom your whole fantasy football season. While it is possible to make up for a bad first round selection, it means you will have to climb uphill all season long.
After studying drafts I have been in and other fantasy football draft information available throughout the internet, I’ve calculated that this is how the average fantasy football draft first round looks so far in 2008:
1. LaDainian Tomlinson, San Diego Chargers
2. Adrian Peterson, Minnesota …read more

Every fantasy football team is only as good as its running backs. While there are a lot of quality fantasy football running backs in 2008 fantasy football, there are also a number of overrated RBs. Here is a look at our list of overrated running backs:
Frank Gore – With Mike Martz at the helm, Frank Gore’s numbers will likely take another hit in 2008. His numbers in 2006 may end up being an anomaly.
Larry Johnson – The Kansas City Chiefs are just a bad team and Larry Johnson won’t have much running room to do anything.
Ryan Grant …read more

Heading into the 2008 fantasy football season, there will be great debate about which running back should be taken first. On one hand, you have LaDainian Tomlinson who has been a fantasy football stud for many years. On the other hand, you have Adrian Peterson who showed limitless potential in his rookie season in the NFL. Which one do we choose right now?
1. LaDainian Tomlison – He’s been too good for too long to pass up.
2. Adrian Peterson – He has as much upside as any player in 2008.
3. Steven Jackson – Struggled in 2007 but should …read more

You can pour over stats for days all you like, at the end of the day fantasy football pretty much comes down to the luck of the draw.

According to a recent report by a Chicago-based employment research firm, fantasy football costs $1.1 billion in lost productivity per week for companies during the NFL season.
Fantasy players spend 10 minutes per day, or almost an hour a week, drafting players, setting rosters and plotting strategy at the office. And that doesn’t even factor in the time they are spending when they are home plotting for next …read more
