Fanspeak: Fantasy Football

1- Trevor Siemian- QB- Broncos After a camp battle it was Siemian who won the starting job in Denver.  And now it is season two as the starter and maybe more of a relaxed situation.  He still has two top of the line receivers with him so Siemian could put up some points as a … More »

By John Manuel In a span of about an hour the fantasy world was rocked by three moves. One by the NFL and the others by NFL squads. What should this mean? Two fantasy big names lead the way. Some leagues could see Zeke Elliott be the first player taken and now that is clearly … More »

1- Philip Rivers– QB- Chargers This is a huge long shot for me.  River is still one of the best quarterbacks in the league but I have concerns.  And maybe I am thinking too much on this.  Cardale Jones doesn’t worry me that he would take River’s job but look at this.  All signs point … More »

1- If you want to be the one who grabs a defense in round 5 or 6 take these guys? I say the Denver Broncos.  I know Shane Ray going down is a concern but he should be back around week one or two.  Von Miller will still be there and so will the best … More »

1- Jameis Winston– QB I know this is kinda an obvious call.  But the Buccaneers made moves so that Winston can’t fail and should be up from a QB2 to a QB1 in his third year.  Both  Desean Jackson and OJ Howard are now in Tampa and should make the passing game more than Mike … More »

1- Are any of the quarterbacks worth looking at? My call is no unless you have some kind of dynasty league.  Trubisky should be the first to play even with Glennon on the Bears roster at a decent price.  He was drafted 2nd and those guys don’t sit anymore.  Deshaun Watson should also play because … More »

1- Is Jordan Howard worth taking in the top 10? I actually had Howard last season and he paid off nicely as a rookie.  After the big three of Bell, Zeke and Johnson you have to think Howard is an option.  Could he explode in year two like David Johnson did?  I kinda think so … More »

1- Which guys should you use a top 15-20 pick on? First of all Tom Brady is an easy selection as the Pats have made it even easier for him to put up huge numbers by adding Brandin Cooks.  Also, Gronk will be back from injury as well.  Remember last year with the suspension he … More »

1- Carson Wentz QB- Eagles $5200 This week is so hard since many stars may not play or play very little.  But we know Wentz will play and I think it will be against a lot if backups for the Cowboys.  I think he could do decent against the starters but I am willing to … More »

1- Trevor Siemian- QB- Broncos $5200 I know it is against the Patriots but didn’t Osweiler light them up last season around the same time?  And Siemian has been putting up 300 yard passing games lately if you take a look.  I think it is too solid of a value to pass on especially in … More »
