While there are a lot of fantasy football players that are hyped up right now early in the 2009 NFL season, some of the players don’t deserve the hype in the fantasy world. Here are a few players you should look to trade as a sell high.
QB Mark Sanchez, New York Jets
Mark Sanchez is getting tons of press and is the darling of New York football at the moment. However, he doesn’t have very much value in fantasy football. Sell him high to get value out of him before the rest of the fantasy world catches on.
RB Willis McGahee, Baltimore …read more

Well, that was a fun start to the 2009 fantasy football season. In Week 1, we saw big performances by fantasy studs and a few surprises from fantasy football players that deserve some analysis. Consider picking these players up off of your fantasy football waiver wire if they are available.
QB Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens
Even though he was playing the lowly Kansas City Chiefs, Joe Flacco’s statistical line can’t be ignored. He had 307 passing yards to go with a career-high three touchdowns. He may make a good fantasy backup QB after all.
RB Mike Bell, New Orleans Saints
Outside of Adrian …read more

QB Gus Frerotte, Minnesota Vikings
In Week 14 of the 2008 fantasy football season, Gus Frerotte is going up against the Detroit Lions. That alone is enough to make him a sleeper. However, Frerotte is actually playing better than most realize. Last week he had two touchdowns and in the last six weeks, he has a total of ten touchdowns. Start him in Week 14 with confidence.
RB Pierre Thomas, New Orleans Saints
With Deuce McAllister suspended and Reggie Bush still slowed by injury, Pierre Thomas is a very important member of the Saints backfield right now. He’s the goal line back and …read more

Fantasy Quarterbacks
Tom Brady, New England Patriots
Word out of New England is that Tom Brady has suffered a torn ACL and is out for the season. If true, this is obviously devastating news to both the Patriots and fantasy owners.
Vince Young, Tennessee Titans
A few reports are saying that Vince Young has torn his MCL in his knee. If true, the knee injury will sideline Young for around a month.
Brodie Croyle, Kansas City Chiefs
After suffering a shoulder injury, Brodie Croyle left the game for the Chiefs. Early indications point to him missing at least a few weeks.
Fantasy Running Backs
Joseph Addai, …read more

Jason Witten – End of the fourth round.
Kellen Winslow – Middle of the fifth round.
Antonio Gates – End of the fifth round.
Tony Gonzalez – Middle of the sixth round.
Dallas Clark – End of the sixth round.
Chris Cooley – Beginning of the seventh round.

Antonio Gates – Coming off of an injury, Antonio Gates might need until midseason to be 100%.
Todd Heap – Speaking of injuries, Todd Heap is the walking injury bug. Simply can’t trust him.
Tony Scheffler – Very good talent but Tony Scheffler is still a work in progress as an NFL player.

Tight end used to be a depleted position in fantasy football. Each year, there seemed to be only a couple quality tight ends. However, this year is different. There are about 15 legitimate tight end prospects, who could all conceivably have big seasons in 2008.
Here is our ranking of the top ten tight ends:
1. Antonio Gates – Gates remains the best tight end in the game.
2. Jason Witten – Great offense and huge potential in 2008.
3. Kellen Winslow – Amazing potential despite character concerns.
4. Tony Gonzalez – Old pro still bringing the stats.
5. Dallas Clark – If …read more

The Baltimore Ravens already have their first major injury of the 2008 NFL season. Quinn Sypniewski, a backup tight end, was lost for the season after tearing a knee ligament in minicamp. Sypniewski will need approximately nine months to fully heal.
During the 2007 season, Sypniewski played a larger than expected role due to starter Todd Heap struggling with injuries for most of the season. Sypniewski ended the season with 246 receiving yards and two touchdowns. The 6-foot-6 tight end out of the University of Colorado had his best game in Week 11 when he had six …read more

Here are NFL players who were injured in 2007 who could potentially return in grand fashion for the 2008 fantasy football season.
QB Jake Delhomme, Carolina Panthers
After playing great to begin the season, Delhomme got hurt in the season’s third game against the Atlanta Falcons. Delhomme’s elbow injury eventually required surgery and he was out for the rest of the year. Although the sample size was small, his production in 2007 was great. He had eight touchdowns, one interception and a quarterback rating of more than 110. Delhomme should get a chance to start again in 2008 and could put up …read more

QB Jeff Garcia, Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Garcia is questionable heading into Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints. If he plays, he’s actually a good start against the Saints’ porous defense. In addition, Joey Galloway and Ike Hilliard become startable. If Garcia doesn’t play, that means either Bruce Gradkowski or Luke McCown gets the nod. If either of those quarterbacks get on the field, it’s probably best to bench everyone on offense for the Bucs.
RB Travis Henry, Denver Broncos – The Broncos are playing the Oakland Raiders this week. If you haven’t been paying attention, the Raiders are an …read more
