1. Adrian Peterson
After a great rookie season, AP is proving it wasn’t a fluke.
2. LaDainian Tomlinson
His career may be winding down LT has too much history to pass up.

5. Matt Forte
Multidimensional Bears RB will …read more

QB Peyton Manning, Indianapolis Colts
Last week, Peyton Manning finally looked like Peyton Manning. The Colts quarterback had by far his best game. His struggles earlier in the season could very well be chalked up to the multiple knee surgeries he had in the offseason. Expect Manning to continue his good play in Week 7.
RB Marion Barber III, Dallas Cowboys
Going against the St. Louis Rams, Marion Barber III should get a whole lot of work. No matter if Tony Romo or Brad Johnson starts at quarterback, Barber will be called upon to keep the pressure of the QB. This is a …read more

This offseason, there have been a lot of rumors surrounding Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson. First the two were supposedly close to getting married. Then Romo and Simpson supposedly broke up. Now the two were last spotted together at the wedding of Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz.
With all this media attention, some fantasy football owners are worried that Romo may be distracted and won’t produce as well as expected in 2008. While it’s definitely a valid concern, I wouldn’t worry too much.
Romo has long been known as a guy who liked to have fun. He …read more

Marion Barber III, the projected starting running back for the Dallas Cowboys in 2008, got a seven-year contract on Tuesday. The contract is reportedly worth approximately $45 – with about one-third of the contract guaranteed.

In the last two season, Barber has been very good for Dallas. In 2006, he had 654 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns. In …read more
