Last season, Antonio Bryant was a fantasy football star. This season? Not so much. Hampered by a knee injury since training camp, Bryant will miss his second straight game this week when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers go up against the Miami Dolphins.
Bryant didn’t even make the trip to Miami so he’s definitely out for the game. Stylez G. White also failed to make the trip.
If you are looking for a fantasy football sleeper who may emerge due to the Antonio Bryant injury, consider Sammie Stroughter. Stroughter leads the Bucs wide receivers in catches and is coming off a game …read more

Antonio Bryant will undergo surgery on his left knee for a torn meniscus. The wide receiver for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will likely miss all of the exhibition season.
This news definitely doesn’t help Bryant’s fantasy football value. Even though he had a big season last year, this injury combined with a new coaching staff makes Bryant somewhat of a risky pick.
Last year, the wide receiver out of Pittsburgh had 83 receptions for 1,248 yards and seven touchdowns. All three of those stats were a career-high.
After sitting out the 2007 football season due to off the field issues, the 28-year-old Bryant …read more

Going into the 2009 fantasy football season, there are many quarterback controversies all around the NFL. One such quarterback controversy will take place in Tampa Bay where the Buccaneers don’t have a clear cut QB at this point.
Sources close to the situation believe that Luke McCown has a good chance of beginning the year as the starter. He has been with the Bucs for the last few years but he doesn’t have much NFL experience. His only on field experience came with the Cleveland Browns in 2004 and the Bucaneers in 2007 and 2008. In total, he has has completed …read more

D Pittsburgh Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers are the best defensive team in the NFL and their defensive ways have translated well over to fantasy football. The Steelers have been extremely effective in the last few weeks and are a safe start every game.
D Indianapolis Colts
With the playoffs quickly approaching, the Indianapolis Colts are playing very good defense. Their only sub par defensive game came against the Detroit Lions — surprisingly enough. Overall, the Colts are showing Super Bowl level defense.
D Minnesota Vikings
Even though the Vikings aren’t healthy and also have to worry about some suspensions on the defensive side of the …read more

RB Brandon Jacobs, New York Giants
Already ruled out for Week 15 of the fantasy football season, be sure to take Brandon Jacobs out of your fantasy starting lineup. Expect Derrick Ward to get the start, although Ahman Bradshaw will likely also get a number of carries.

RB Marion Barber III, Dallas Cowboys
Marion Barber III took some criticism last week for not playing. Considering that fact, there’s a good chance he’ll do his all to play in Week 15. The backup running back option for the Cowboys is currently Tashard Choice.
QB Gus Frerotte, Minnesota Vikings
Listed as doubtful, it doesn’t appear as …read more

QB Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons
The Falcons are going against an Oakland Raiders defense that simply isn’t that good. Last week, fellow rookie quarterback Joe Flacco had a good fantasy day against this same defense. Expect Ryan to have an even better game in Week 9. Right now, he’s a definite fantasy football sleeper for the week.
RB Michael Pittman, Denver Broncos
Michael Pittman is banged up and is currently listed as questionable for the Week 9 game. But he was able to practice late in the week and should start the game and have a heavy workload. Against the Miami Dolphins, Pittman …read more

QB Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers
After winning the Super Bowl as a rookie, Ben Roethlisberger has blossomed into a very capable fantasy football quarterback. He’s not going to wow you with pass attempts but he’s a very steady hand who is dependable on a week to week basis. If he’s your starter, he won’t beat you.
RB Earnest Graham, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Quietly, Earnest Graham has been very good since becoming a starter. This season, he is averaging over five and half yards per rush. He also has three touchdowns and is a threat to catch the ball out of the backfield. He …read more

QB Brett Favre, New York Jets
In Week 4, Brett Favre was amazing. His six touchdown passes reminded the world what he is capable of doing. However, don’t hesitate to sell him high if another fantasy owner comes calling.
RB Ronnie Brown, Miami Dolphins
The last time the 2008 fantasy football world saw Ronnie Brown, he was scoring five touchdowns against the New England Patriots defense. With his value likely never to be higher, now is a good time to try to trade him.

Can Ronnie Brown keep it up or was Week 3 a flash in the pan.
WR Greg Jennings, Green Bay Packers
Aaron …read more

If your fantasy football draft didn’t go as planned, here are some fantasy football players who should be able to help you in Week 1. Best of all, these players should be available on your league’s waiver wire.
Quarterback – Jeff Garcia, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Bucs are going against the New Orleans Saints and the Saints are known for their defensive prowess. Jeff Garcia started well last season and could start well again this year.
Running Back – Andre Hall, Denver Broncos
Although he won’t be the starter, expect Andre Hall to get plenty of opportunities against the Oakland Raiders – especially …read more
