Fantasy Football Sleepers: 2011 NFL Draft Kit

Fantasy Football Sleepers: 2011 NFL Draft Kit

The thing about fantasy football is that it’s almost difficult to mess up those first 4 picks. Yes, in four rounds, if you don’t walk away with 4 pretty dang good players, you are one of the 12% that blew it. (Of course injuries can derail you from the get go, Ryan Grant last year, Tom Brady the year before that – but that’s a different beast).

I’ve seen guys pick their favorite defense in Round 4, I’ve seen homers take their favorite player in Round 2 (and no, there was never a point where Drew Bledsoe was a 2^nd round fantasy player, but when you have friends that went to WSU, crazy business can happen in fantasy leagues!). These are what you call “Donators”. Donators join fantasy football leagues for the camaraderie, the banter, a reason to follow the game in more depth, and of course… to donate money to the league pool. You don’t pick the Cowboys D in Round 4 unless you are a Donator. Everyone loves a Donator, they make draft day fun and give you better chances to win.

The point is, your draft isn’t made in the first few rounds or every team in your league would be good (unless you have a donator). Every team in your league isn’t good, that’s a guarantee, so the fact of the matter is, the separation between Fantasy team Good and Fantasy team Bad are every addition from Round 5 until defenses and kickers become the small fat unskilled guy picked last for two hand touch at recess.

So how are you going to dominate those rounds and build a fantasy championship level squad? Get value, and lots of it. How you going to do that? Get a note pad and a pen, read this article, write some of these names down, draft them on draft day, then email the site and thank me later. Here are my 2011 great value picks, also known as sleepers. (I’ll have a DEEP SLEEPER article in a week or so, so stay tuned for that – covering undrafted guys that could really impress).

This is where you’ll see me differ from my site rankings – for example, I like A.J. Green more than Michael Crabtree, a little different from our rankings. I’ll try to explain why when the time comes, but for the most part, these are guys that we (collective whole at LL.com) have ranked above other fantasy sites.

All players in this article are ranked outside the Top 60, meaning they are usually picked after the first 6 rounds of the draft. Next to their names, I’ve listed their “average draft positions” (ADP) as well as a couple guys drafted ahead of them that they are better than.

(Check out my full positional tiered rankings here: QB Tiers – RB Tiers – WR Tiers – TE Tiers – D/ST Tiers)

Here it goes…

QB: This is an interesting one because I’ve hated Cutler in the past, have always overrated Bradford, and have written some bad things about Cassell. The bottom line here is that it doesn’t matter who you like and hate, it’s all about value and that team/player improving. I wouldn’t think that Roy Williams would help many teams, but shoot, he’ll help Chicago. So Will Cutler getting his A in shape and working on quarterbacking things all summer. Expect more TDs and less INTs from lumpy. Bradford will have more targets, another year of football and health, and a better team under him. He’s sooo accurate. Cassel had some ups and downs, but look at the kid’s production last year – he was real good. And you know defenses will continue to key on that rushing attack.

1. Jay Cutler (ADP: 103) (Better than: Eli Manning, Josh Freeman, Matt Ryan)

2. Sam Bradford (ADP: 114) (Better than: Colt McCoy, Mark Sanchez, Eli Manning)

3. Matt Cassel (ADP: 120)  (Better than: Kyle Orton, Tim Tebow, McNabb, Newton, McCoy)

RB: I don’t know what I like about Lynch. He’s faster than he gets credit for and is more two dimensional than the Hawks used him for last season. He averaged 4 yards per carry in his first two seasons, and caught 47 balls in his sophomore campaign. The Hawks have a much improved offensive line and a QB that has to be accounted for. Beanie Wells will have his best season as a pro, which isn’t saying much. But I expect defenses to give a crap about the passing game in Arizona, something they didn’t do last year. Beanie will have more room, and if he doesn’t get hurt, what a steal on draft day. Felix Jones is a super talented runner than produced some good stuff late last season. He’ll be better than the guys he’s drafted behind. DeAngelo Williams is hardly a sleeper, but I really think a lot of him. I know he’ll be better than Matthews or Bradshaw, the Panthers offensive line is better and healthier and yes, I think Newton is more help to that offense than Jimmy Claussen. Williams has been good with Delhomme at QB, so he’s used to doing work.

1. Marshawn Lynch (ADP: 96) (Better than: LeShoure, D. Thomas, Moreno, Stewart, Benson)

2. Beanie Wells (ADP: 122) (Better than: Spiller, Helu, Murray, Ryan Williams, Reggie Bush, L.T.)

3. Felix Jones (ADP: 98) (Better than: Fred Jackson, LeShoure, Moreno, Stewart)

4. DeAngelo Williams (ADP: 68) (Better than: Ryan Matthews, Ahmad Bradshaw)

WR: Everyone thinks that Edwards’ value dives in San Francisco. That’s good, because I think it rises. New head coach, Harabaugh is a good coach. Edwards is a super talented player. Braylon signed for 1 million to play under a guy he really respects. Braylon will be the best receiver in San Francisco. Mike Thomas gets no love, but since I’ve done nothing but love this guy since he was in college, I’m giving everyone a heads up. He’s the #1 receiver in Jax, which means little except that he’s going to be better than most of the people ranked around him, because he’s ranked like a slot WR. Sims-Walker is a high-risk high-reward player, expect that he’s low risk. Yes, at pick 120, you’re not risking all that much. He could end up being a big fast #1 WR for one of the more accurate young QBs ever. James Jones was paid pretty well to be a 4^th receiver in Green Bay – in fact, he was paid like a #2. Every site has Driver and Nelson (and Jennings, but he should be) ranked ahead of Jones, but James will outperform both those guys and a bunch of guys picked ahead of him on draft day.

1. Braylon Edwards (ADP: 113) (Better than: Julio Jones, Mike Williams (sea), Santana Moss, Knox, Burress)

2. Mike Thomas (ADP: 127) (Better than Lee Evans, Burleson, Baldwin, Greg Little, Jordy Nelson)

3. Mike Sims-Walker (ADP: 120) (Better than: Donald Driver, Hines Ward, Deion Branch, Devin Hester, Malcom Floyd)

4. James Jones (ADP: 135) (Donald Driver, Deion Branch, Greg Little, Jordy Nelson)

TE: Cooley is a great receiver and probably the best target Washington has. He dropped a bunch of balls last year, but this guy gets heavy targets and is good after the catch. He’ll be a Top 10 guy for sure, probably Top 7. Jared Cook doesn’t get much love, but Hasselbeck likes to go to the TE (he can’t throw real far, and TE’s usually run shallower routes) and if Locker takes over, he’ll look for the big guy. Cook is very athletic and should be consistent all season.

1. Chris Cooley (ADP: 128) (Better than: Marcedes Lewis, Heath Miller, Shockey, Kevin Boss, Todd Heap, Petitgrew, Tony Gonzalez, Winslow)

2. Jared Cook (ADP: 139) (Ben Watson, Greg Olsen, Todd Heap, Shockey, Heath Miller)

D: Dallas is at least better than all those teams I listed, and maybe more. They have a very good defensive coordinator in tow, they’ve always been talented, and they played much better after Garrett took over last season. Carolina has a solid young defense with good returning players and an offense that will hold the ball longer – last year they were on the field forever!

1. Dallas Cowboys (ADP: 119) (Better than: Houston, Indianapolis, San Diego, Minnesota)

2.  Carolina Panthers (ADP: Undrafted) (Better than: Denver, Oakland, Arizona, Miami)

K: I’m only putting kickers in here to prove to you that you don’t need to ever pick a kicker before the last round of your draft (unless you’re in a 2/3 kicker league in which case you don’t need to be angry at me for writing this, you just need to get the heck out of that league). Scobee is an accurate cat that cat drill deep field goals, and the offense will move the ball a little better (but still struggle to score) in 2011. Henery will be the guy for the quick hitting Eagles, that could leave many a field goal attempt for the youngster.

1. Josh Scobee (ADP: 117) (Better than: Shuisham, Josh Brown, Akers)

2. Alex Henery (ADP: 126) (Better than: Feely, Jsoh Brown, Cundiff)

Tiered Fantasy Rankings D/ST: Draft Kit

With camps started and most additions and subtractions already done, it was time to get my first set of rankings out there. I already have my QB Tiers – RB Tiers – WR Tiers and TE Tiers, so without anymore delay, here are my Defensive tiers.

If you don’t know about tiered rankings, read this, it might help – “How To Use Tiered Rankings” – I’ll do my best to get my complete All Position Tiered Rankings done here in the next week or so. Until then, enjoy, and feel free to write in with any questions. Any mail to papaweimer50@hotmail.com gets forwarded to the site, so shoot us some disagreements if you please!

Defense/Special Teams

DST Tier I

Pittsburgh Steelers
Green Bay Packers
New York Jets

Tier II

Philadelphia Eagles
Baltimore Ravens
Chicago Bears

Tier III

Dallas Cowboys
Atlanta Falcons
New England Pats

Tier IV

Detroit Lions
New Orleans Saints
New York Giants
Kansas City Chiefs
Minnesota Vikings
San Francisco 49ers
Tennessee Titans
Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tier V

Seattle Seahawks
St. Louis Rams
Carolina Panthers
Denver Broncos
Oakland Raiders
Houston Texans

They haven’t made unbelievable moves this off-season, but it’s tough to bet against the Steelers, Packers, and Jets. They just have that dominant defensive game plan, they play at a speed that only the Ravens match, and they are still young enough to be dominant.

The Ravens, Bears, and Eagles were all considered for that top tier spot – but despite the additions Philly made in their secondary and pass rush (Nnamdi and Jason Babin) I’m just not sure they’ll be good enough up front at stopping the run to be a top tier defense. The Ravens are getting older and still need pass rush help and the Bears are solid, but one wonders if they’re tough enough up the middle on the defensive line. All three are great defenses, no doubt, but that’s why they weren’t in the top tier.

The Patriots did a great job in the off-season, adding one of the best 4-3 DTs in the game (Albert Haynesworth). They also are interested in Tommie Harris, and like always, I’m sure they’ll get him to play to his potential. They are a very young defense in the secondary, and a year of growth will certainly do them well.

Dallas will almost surely be solid this year. They get a very good defensive coordinator and talent has never been a problem for them. Expect big things from Rob Ryan in Big D.

The Lions jump out at me as a winner in the draft, and their youth will be improved this year. I don’t know how teams will deal with their stud defensive tackles.

The Saints and Giants are always solid, especially up front. Their pressure on opposing offenses really creates problems, and then turnovers. Defenses are tough to predict on a year to year basis, don’t spend too much on them unless your league has special rules awarding points for yardage against and higher scoring bonuses.

TE Tiered Fantasy Football Rankings: 2011 Draft Kit

With camps started and most additions and subtractions already done, it was time to get my first set of rankings out there. I already have my QB Tiers – RB Tiers and WR Tiers finished, with just Ds hoping to get finished by Tuesday.

If you don’t know about tiered rankings, read this, it might help – “How To Use Tiered Rankings“

It used to be a nothing position, right in line with kickers, but it’s deeper than ever before – Tight Ends!

TE Tier I

Antonio Gates
Dallas Clark
Jermichael Finley

Tier II

Vernon Davis
Jason Witten

Tier III

Zach Miller
Owen Daniels
Chris Cooley

Tier IV

Brandon Petitgrew
Tony Gonzalez
Mercedes Lewis
Jimmy Graham
Jermaine Gresham
Kellen Winslow
Dustin Keller
Rob Gronkowski

Tier V

Brent Celek
Vinsanthe Shiancoe
John Carlson
Heath Miller
Jared Cook
Greg Olson
Toni Moeaki
Kevin Boss
Aaron Hernandez
Lance Kendricks
Ed Dixon
Todd Heap
Ben Watson
Anthony Fasano

Not as many tiers in the field of TEs, but that’s because you should almost never own more than 1 – since there’s 32 starters, that leaves a bunch of guys that could play in case of injury. We’d love to have a guy from the first 3 tiers of TEs because even at the bottom of that group, the potential upside is high. It all starts with Antonio Gates, and we were 1 foot injury away from putting him in a tier all by himself. Because Clark and Finley are so talented, and have such huge roles in their respective passing attacks, they deserve to be here with Gates. Not one of these guys was healthy in 2010, but we have big dreams in ’11.

Vernon Davis and Witten sit by themselves in Tier 2 and that’s because they just haven’t been good enough to get into Tier 1, but they are both talented enough to be the top TE in the league. I have a feeling Witten is going to have a big year, but there’s a lot of talent out wide in Dallas, and the running game should be better this season. Davis still has Alex Smith throwing him the ball, but as the team’s #1 receiver, he’ll get the looks.

Zach Miller still doesn’t have a team, but if he can be good in Oakland, he can be good anywhere. Ideally he’ll go to a place where he’s a Top 2 target – if so, he’ll be great, even as the 3rd guy, he’ll impress – but if he’s the #1 guy again, he doesn’t have Top 2 tier upside. Owen Daniels had what was close to a lost year, he just didn’t get up to speed until late. The “until late” part of that has us excited, because he was impressive down the stretch, and that’s the guy we always thought was the 2nd best WR in Houston. Chris Cooley is the best ball catcher in Washington, and we expect Beck to use him early and often. Fewer drops in 2011 will go a long way for Cooley’s fantasy stock.

These are the last group of guys we’d feel comfortable starting – but they are a step down from the first three tiers. Petitgrew has great PPR upside with all the balls he gets. Not a big play threat, but consistency from the TE is nice. Gonzalez is old, but still good – we’re unsure how many looks he’ll get with White and now Julio Jones on the other side. Lewis had a great year, but we are always scared about Jacksonville’s passing offense. Graham and Gresham should be much better in 2011, they are both very talented. Winslow still has the talent to be a starter at TE, but he got lost a couple times last season – Keller and Gronkowski both have TD upside for good teams.

Tier 5 has some guys that have been good players – Celek, Shiancoe, Carlson, Miller, Olson, Heap, Watson and Boss – they’ve all been Top 10 TEs at some point over the last 5 seasons – but looking at the way it stacks up, we’re just not sure about these guys.

Tiered WR Rankings: 2011 Draft Kit

Because there are still additions and cuts going down, the list might change a little bit here and there, but this is what we feel strongly about right now. I’ve already have my QB Tiers and RB Tiers locked down, with TEs, and Ds up by Tuesday.

AJ and Roddy are the best in the business and their respective teams are dedicated to getting them the ball. Andre’s squad doesn’t have as many weapons, but teams still can’t stop him – he gets the nod as our #1.

Calvin Johnson might be the best receiving prospect ever, and we feel that if Stafford stays healthy in Detroit, he might very well show that this year. Greg Jennings is the #1 for the best arm in the game (accuracy, vision, and cannon) and only Rodgers’ interest in spreading the ball around keeps Jennings away from that top tier – still, his consistency is impressive. Nicks is really coming into his own, and with Steve Smith starting the season hurt (and maybe on another team), Nicks is the guy. Reggie slowed down a bit last year, but if the other threats in Indy stay healthy, Wayne wouldn’t get so much attention and would get chances to beat the defense more often. Larry Fitz squeezed into the 2nd tier, and everyone knows his talent is top tier material. We like Kolb heading to Arizona, but not enough to put him ahead of the rest.

A small tier 3 has some very grand upside. Austin heads the list, but DeSean, Wallace, and Vincent Jackson might all have him beat in upside. Austin gets his signal caller back, however, and with plenty of attention on prized sophomore Dez Bryant, he’ll have room to shine. I’m excited to see what Vincent can do with a full season in San Diego.

Speaking of Dez, he heads our 4th tier. Maclin continues to move up the charts from year to year, and we can only see him getting better this time around. Colston would be a beast if Drew Brees would target him more – and who knows, maybe this year. As is, this is a good spot for him. We have a couple guys on staff worried about Bowe’s chances to match last year’s success. He still has tons of upside.The last two couldn’t be more different – but Marshall needs QB play to finish ahead of Welker, and we all know Wes’s QB will do just fine.

This 5th tier is huge and there are plenty of different kinds on this list. We have youngsters like Mike Williams, Stevie Johnson, Crabtree (might miss first couple weeks of the season), and Percy Harvin (better now with Donovan? but as the #1?). Sidney Rice is still young, but like Chad Johnson, he’s changed area codes – we have Ocho’s move doing more for his fantasy stock than Rice’s. Manningham and Edwards don’t have as much flash, but both could flourish in new roles. Holmes is the surefire #1 in New York, and with a full season he’ll be solid for Sanchez. Boldin and Steve Smith may be getting up there in years, but we’d take the chance on either at this price.

As for the rest, we’re not crazy about any of them as #2 WRs, but there’s plenty of upside in there.

RB Tiered Fantasy Football Rankings: 2011 Draft kit

Jaquizz Rodgers

For the first time in all my years of doing this, there were 4 different #1 overall picks amongst the staff. Nobody made a good enough argument to keep Chris Johnson, Adrian Peterson, or Arian Foster out of our top overall tier, but we did thwart Papa Weimer’s efforts to get Jamaal Charles’s name in the top tier. With CJ, AP, and Foster topping 3 different lists, as well as going in the Top 3 (or Papa’s case, 4) in each of our individual rankings, the top tier was easy. Nate liked Chris Johnson, Red and Arse liked AP, and with Houston headed more towards running the ball, I went with Foster. Nate’s argument was the best, so we agreed to put CJ atop the list. His upside, no doubt, is incredible.

Maurice Jones-Drew heads Tier 2, but this is a close race. I could easily see Frank Gore staying healthy and ending up ahead of anybody on this list, but when we factor in health risk, the offense they play in, our projections for their respective teams and their importance to their offense, MJD is the best back you can get outside of the top tier. Charles might have the most upside, and my personal favorite is Ray Rice (especially now with Leech signing in Baltimore), and McCoy, in his 3rd season, could conceivably make the biggest jump from yesteryear. Bottom line, Tier 2 is legit.

Tier 3 is also very solid, but there are more questions. With Turner, it’s age, and the perception that he’s slowed down if only a tiny bit. Mendenhall is a very good runner, but his fumbling woes have turned his coach off to goal line carries – that’s never ideal. Forte is another stud runner, but Cutler rarely checks down and goal line carries have been rare. With Marion Barber signing in Chicago, the goal line just got farther away. Steven Jackson is an elite talent, no doubt, but his consistent numbers haven’t been exciting the last couple years. He doesn’t score much and rarely puts up great days. McFadden has injury woes and he’s a Raider – he really impressed at times last season, but I’m not ready to rank him ahead of the rest of Tier 3. Peyton Hillis was great, a real fantasy sweetheart last year. He took the job and ran with it, but Cleveland gets Montario Hardesty back this season, a youngster they really liked heading into 2010 prior to his injury. With a very young team, no passing attack, and a runner to share the load, even the Madden cover boy has his questions (plus, Madden Curse, right?). All in all, these are great #2 options, and even walking away from your draft with Turner and Steven Jackson as your starters wouldn’t be terrible.

Tier 4 is small, but all guys have big time upside. We’ve already seen what DeAngelo can do when his team is winning games and he stays healthy, he was the best fantasy back a few years ago. He’s only 28, and his big signing means the Panthers are dedicated to him. Blount and Matthews (two guys we rank just ahead of Williams) haven’t reached their potential yet, but with both getting the starting job for their improving teams, 2011 could be a great year to invest in the youngsters. Best is another sophomore, but he’s not being hyped around fantasy circles as much as we like him. We understand the risk, and he’s definitely the last back in this tier, but he’s closer to these guys than Tier 5, so he belongs.

The 5th Tier has a bunch of solid upside guys. I like the Top 4 more than the bottom 2, but both J-Stew and Moreno have their arguments. Jones is an interesting case, but we’ll like him a lot more if he’s back to his svelte body weight prior to 2010. Grant is coming off injury, but Starks didn’t impress me much, and if you take a risk here and get a starting RB for the Packers, you win big. Greene and Bradshaw are both semi-time-share back, but I expect both to get the majority of carries for run-first teams.

Tier 6 is full of guys with starting jobs that you can get on the cheap. The only guy with not much upside is Joseph Addai, but he’s probably the most consistent of the group. Many questions surround these guys, but I’d love to have any of the 7 on my team as #4 running backs. Ingram, Jackson, Benson, and Ellis could all pass as #3′s.

Tier 7 has some very talented youngsters, and a couple back-ups in LT and Michael Bush that I think could really impress if they ended up with starters’ carries. Torain should be the starting RB for a team that will get better up front and rely on the run more. Daniel Thomas, Williams and LeShoure are all very talented rookies that could end up with the lion’s share of touches for their teams. I’m not sure where Ronnie Brown will be just yet, but I’ve always thought the Dolphins misused him a bit. He’s a great receiver with good moves in the open field. If he finds a starting gig, he’ll run with it.

Tier 8 and 9 have some options, but I’d only want to take deep chances at this point. Fill your RB slot with the upper tiers, and buy some insurance low with these guys.

Tiered Fantasy Football Rankings QBs: 2011 Draft Kit

Per usual I’m busting out my fantasy rankings a month before the season takes place – it’s still wild in NFL land, and while we have had a plethora of moves in the last week, there’s still decisions to be made. As so, the list might change a little bit here and there, but don’t expect anything drastic.

Overall, we’re pretty excited about our ranking system here at LuckyLester.com – a lot of discussion has gone down, and while we all don’t agree wholeheartedly, these tiered rankings are the consensus. I’ve always been a huge fan of tiered rankings as a draft tool, 10x better than a Top 300 or even positional rankings, because of their usefulness in any draft situation. If you’re unfamiliar with tiered rankings or have never used them as a cheat sheet for your fantasy drafts, check out my “How To Use Tiered Rankings” article. The main idea behind tiered rankings is that you want as many players from the higher tiers as you can get, and you don’t want to settle for low-tier players at any one position if you can help it.

Okay, over the next 2 days I’ll be publishing all 4 positional rankings – QB, RB, WR, TE, and Def – we never rank kickers because they fluctuate so much from year to year – our advice, take a kicker from a good offense – regardless of how good that kicker is – but if he kicks a high percentage, he’s even that much better.

Running Backs – Wide Receivers – Tight Ends – Defense/Special Teams – have all been updated as well.

Quarterbacks!

QB Tier I

Aaron Rodgers
Michael Vick

Tier II

Tom Brady
Peyton Manning
Phillip Rivers
Drew Brees
Tony Romo

Tier III

Matt Schaub

Tier IV

Ben Roethlisberger
Matthew Stafford
Matt Ryan
Josh Freeman
Eli Manning
Kevin Kolb
Joe Flacco
Matt Cassel
Jay Cutler

Tier V

Sam Bradford
Donovan McNabb
Mark Sanchez

Tier VI

Cam Newton
Kyle Orton
Ryan Fitzpatrick
David Garrard
Tarvaris Jackson
Matt Hasselbeck
Chad Henne
Colt McCoy
Alex Smith
Jason Campbell

Tier VII

Tim Tebow
Rex Grossman
Vince Young
Andy Dalton
Christian Ponder
Jake Locker
John Beck
Carson Palmer

These two are the cream of the crop. We ranked Rodgers ahead of Vick because, as a group, we feel that Rodgers is the safer of the two – and his chances of staying healthy are greater. It’s tough to get more upside than Michael Vick, though, so we feel pretty comfortable taking either of these two guys as the #1 quarterback overall.

We’ve moved around a bit with these rankings as free agent signings and trades have piled in. We’re pretty high on Tony Romo, but it’s hard to rank him higher than the other six guys ahead of him on our big board. We just feel he’s definitely in this tier. Brady’s stock has gone up the most, while Manning continues to hang on despite a little worry over his health – he never misses games! All these guys are close, but you have to have one of them (or the guy sitting alone in our next tier) if you want an elite grade from us. There’s not a ton of certainty at the QB position, but these guys are 5 to bank on.

Tier 3 is made up of Matt Schaub and, well, that’s all. WE couldn’t quite put him in the first two tiers because we’d easily rather have any of those Top 7 over Schaub, that feeling was universal. However, we all concurred that we’d rather have him over the rest of the field. Talent, Andre Johnson, and a strong running game behind Foster is what we like. Running the ball a lot more these days limits his consistency.

Tier 4 is where we absolutely draw the line. If you went for that extra stud receiver or running back, hoping that one of the elite 8 came back to you, and they didn’t – then don’t freakout, just hold your horses and take one of these cats when the value seems right. But don’t hold your breath until you pass out and end up with Mark Sanchez and David Garrard as your starting cavalry. We like Big Ben more than Cutler, but not enough to think you’re WAY better off with the former. These guys are all close, and they all have their worries. Big Ben was so very average last year (and most years – fantasy-wise) that we’re just not sold – but he’s safe and he will produce, more than you can be sure about with Stafford, Cassel, Cutler and even Manning (who is a roller coaster every year). Freeman was probably the most consistent guy last year, but we’re being careful with him this time around. We think Stafford has the highest upside, but with his health concerns, probably the riskiest in the bunch. We’re intrigued by Kolb in Arizona, enough to toss him in with the bunch.

Tier 5 is is only three deep, but I personally love Sam Bradford’s upside, especially if they get a proven WR to help him out a bit. Randy, Plax, here’s talking to you, fellas. Bradford has elite upside – I think he’s the best youngster in quite some time – I’m the only one on staff that thinks it, but I’d be happy with him as my starter this year. Okay, maybe not happy, but comfortable… Donovan is getting the benefit of the doubt here, but we certainly are worried. This is the best running game he’s had since Brian Westbrook we doing work for the Eagles, and McNabb has always been a good playaction guy. Sanchez has all the tools, and if he takes the proper steps forward this year – he’ll outperform this ranking.

The second to last tier is full of guys that have starting jobs (we think) and have some upside. But #2s or #3s at the most, here. I’m interested in what Tarvaris Jackson will do as a leader and a teacher of the offensive scheme he’s been learning in Minnesota – he’ll be one of the vets of this offense in Seattle. With Rice and Williams there’s two great targets that will help a QB out – I think he’ll be solid. Not solid enough to want on my fantasy team – ha – but in a pinch….

Tier 7 is borderline off-limits, but hey, Vince Young could be good when Vick is hurt for a few games. That’s why the Eagles got him – it might not be pretty, but he wins games. All these guys could get starts, but all could do very little. Don’t put much stock in them.

How To Use Tiered Rankings: 2011 Draft Kit

Tiered Fantasy Rankings – These are rankings, similar to the cheat sheet you’ve used for drafts for years, but instead of a list that is ordered by numbers, from the very top being the best player and the very bottom being the worst player, tiered rankings break groups of players down in certain talent levels.

Basically, a tier separates groups of players from each other. This ranking still list players in order from best to worst or the guys we’d most like to own all the way to the guys we don’t care to own. But, we also take that long list and break it down into like-players, guys we feel are close enough to equal where you wouldn’t have to reach for one of them – it really assesses value in a way that a Top 300 list really can’t.

This is the best kind of cheat sheet for drafts. It not only gives you a valuable ranking system, but it helps you recognize positional runs in the draft, the value of certain positions over others, a lack of talent left in a single area compared to other positions, and makes the leftover depth much easier to recognize.

The best way to use a tiered ranking cheat sheet is to use it to recognize value left on the board. For example, if it’s your turn, and you’re not sure if you should pick a WR or a RB, you can assess the depth of the position at the current tier level. If you see that there are just 2 WRs left on the board that fit into the 2nd tier, but there are 5 RBs that fit into the current high-tier, you should pick a WR. There are certainly more things to look at than that alone, but it is a very helpful tool in the heat of a draft.

Tiered rankings also help you recognize when it’s okay to reach for a player. If you haven’t picked a QB yet and the only QB left on the board from the first 3 tiers is Phillip Rivers, you might want to scratch your draft strategy for that pick and go with Rivers. His value has a huge jump because he’s the only elite level player left at that position.

Breaking the player pool into tiers is the only way I do it. Sometimes I break the entire draft down into tiers and sometimes I have different lists for each position. It helps me stay organized in the moment and keeps me on track.

I hope you enjoy our Tiered Rankings – all positions (sans kickers) will be posted. Links below…

NFL Free Agent Moves: Fantasy Football Implications

This is wild! This is crazy! This is an entire summer of free agency in a couple days. They should hold out every year…. Okay, maybe that’s a little much, but the wait has certainly paid off as we are getting an influx of interesting moves, from big name trades to stupid owners refusing to trade people because they’re stubborn idiots without any sense that they aren’t the guy who runs the planet. Yes, this is awesome. Football wise, we’ll see how they all turn out, but what do the big moves mean for the fantasy fire power? I attempt to answer that right now!

Devin Aromashodu: Interestingly enough, this move was announced prior to Sydney’s addition in Seattle. Well, it means a whole heck of a lot more now. The outcast from Mike Martz’s over-coaching will get a chance to be a #2 target in Minnesota behind Percy Harvin. It should be interesting, but I’d say his upside is worth a look late in deep leagues.

Steve Breaston: Breaston in Kansas City is interesting. One wonders if it was Todd Haley (old OC and now current HC in KC – look at all those C’s) that made Breaston a promising big speedster, or if it was Kurt Warner. If you believe it was Haley (and maybe Haley thinks that) then you should grab Breaston late. If you think it was Kurt, and that Cassel’s touchdown-happy second half of the season was flukey, then stay away. Either way, KC is a run-first offense with Dwayne Bowe and 1st Round pick Jon Baldwin, not to mention the wild card Dexter McCluster – so keep your projections for Breaston low, he loses value fleeing Arizona. Early Ducet moves up, though, as he likely gets the nod at #2 opposite Larry Fitzgerald.

Reggie Bush: My good Doctor, Dr. Zarrabi, says that Bush has gained the most value in free agency thus far – I’m not so sure, but I can see where he’s coming from. Bush moves to Miami where he becomes “the guy” or so they say. I don’t know how he’ll ever stay healthy enough to be the guy anywhere, but he’ll definitely help the Dolphins open up their offense, as he’s certainly a game breaker. I’m wondering what role he’ll have in comparison to Daniel Thomas who I project as a better true running back. Taking his talents to South Beach, though, it could get wild! I recently picked Bush in the last round of a fantasy league, so I’ll agree, his stock shoots up – no way he lasts that long after this trade.

Jabar Gaffney: Traded to a place where wide receivers go to die, so no, I don’t expect him to do as much as he did last year which means, he’s not draftable.

Bruce Gradkowski:I guess Bruce is on the list for those of you who are interested in Andy Dalton being the sure-thing starter – I don’t know. I’m not sure if Bruce will every be draftable, but I’m pretty sure he’ll be starting some games in Cincinnati this season – and you know what else? Carson and the Owner will be starting the same amount of games as well.

Matt Hasselbeck: This pretty much squares up the whole “Jake Locker as the starter” situation in Tennessee, if by squares up you mean squashes. Jake was hardly ready to start at UW last season. Hasselbeck is certainly on the downside of his career, but a much better offensive line, a more talented wide receiver, and Chris Johnson instead of a Marshawn Lynch/Just Forsett duo – yeah, I’d say Hass’s stock goes up in Tennessee. I think he’s better than Kerry Collins, and I think he stays healthier by staying off his back in Tennessee.

Santonio Holmes: Holmes likes what he sees in New York, with Mark Sanchez and a talented group of players – I’d trust him with this one. Sanchez will improve, he’s still so very young, and with him will go Holmes who was one of the most talented free agent position players in football this season. He didn’t move, but him leaving money on the table in Washington to stay in NY should tell you a lot about both teams.

Tarvaris Jackson:While Hasselbeck’s stock goes up from last season, so to does Tarvaris Jackson – he’ll probably end up being the starter in Minnesota, and with him comes Sydney Rice to help with the transition. Also, Seattle is looking to have a much improved offensive line. THey’ll move Max Unger to center, where he’ll be above average. Rookie RT, James Carpenter is a solid bookend opposite Russel Okung. Robert Gallary, one of the best OGs on the market, is also signing with the Hawks – but most importantly, maybe, is the addition of Tom Cable as the O-line coach – that will be great for a sour-puss offensive line from last year. I’ve always seen something in Jackson, lets hope I’m not wrong about this guy like I was about Maroney.

Vincent Jackson: I know Vincent didn’t move teams, and he can’t be too happy to be sticking around, but he became a multi-millionaire by signing his tender, and at least by signing his franchise tag he comes into camp on time and gets to play with one of the best young QBs in the league for an entire year (though I hardly see him fighting through injuries). Regardless, he becomes a Top 10 WR and he hasn’t been going as such.

Chad Johnson: He wasn’t a free agent, and neither was the other new Patriot, Albert Haynesworth – in fact, both Ochocinco (I feel dirty even writing that) and Big Al were problem children for their former teams, but the Patriots felt it benefitted them to pay very little for two supremely talented players that could very easily make the difference in a Championship season. Chad is no Randy Moss, don’t get it twisted – he is unlikely to spend much time going over the middle, and he is a high profile wide receiver, hey, he might even take some plays off, but don’t expect Chad to come in and toy with Randy’s touchdown record like Moss did when he got traded to New England. But does he add something big to the Patriots? You bet! I wouldn’t be surprised if he led the team in receiving yards. Al’s the big win here. The Patriots will almost surely find a way to get him to play up to his potential, even if they don’t switch to a 4-3. Remember, he was ticked that the Redskins were playing a 3-4, and he’s going to a perrinial 3-4 squad in New England – but it’ll almost surely be different, and we’ll all learn how you’re supposed to coach a guy like Al.

Kevin Kolb: I think Kolb’s stock goes up the most, obviously – but Arizona should be a great place for him. There are a few backs that are solid in Arizona, Beanie and Ryan Williams both have the upside to be great – if they put it together, and Larry Fitz is a Top 3 receiver in football, if not the best in the game. Kolb is a good player, don’t get it twisted. Sure, the Eagles seem to know when to get rid of players, but this is a different case – this Kolb guy was the kid that Andy Reid chose to start over Mike Vick last season. There’s great upside here, I think he’s a Top 15 QB.

Donovan McNabb: With Rice gone, I’m not sure McNabb is a Top 15 WR. I love Percy Harvin, no doubt, and Percy’s stock has to go up from where it was heading into free agency. McNabb could really use a great run game from the Vikings, he doesn’t have the skills to throw it 35 times like he used to in Philly during his star days, but he still has a very strong arm, and Minnesota might be just the place for him to put an exclamation point on a very impressive career. I hope he does so.

Sidney Rice: I think Rice was the best skill position player on the free agent market, and thus I think the Hawks were very wise to grab him. He instantly becomes their best game breaking talent, and a guy that will stretch the field and dominate 1 on 1 coverage if defenses stack the line of scrimmage. Mike Williams is a decent running partner, even though he is a heavy (meaning light, actually, just more weight) version of Rice. Neither player wins with their elite speed, but Rice is faster, and big/tall like Williams. Tough match-up problems in Seattle. If Jackson can get the ball there (or Whitehurst I guess).

Brad Smith: This is an interesting move for the Bills, I have to be honest. With Stevie Johnson and Lee Evans, there’s not too much room for pass catching options, and with CJ Spiller rocking the return game (for the price of a 1st round pick 2 seasons ago) I’m not too sure the “need” is there.

Donte Stallworth: To Washington… John Beck? Rex Grossman? I don’t know what Washington is up to, but I don’t think I’d put many hopes on Donte.

DeAngelo Williams: Williams didn’t move, but his staying in Carolina might hurt both his and Jon Stewart’s stock, at least a little bit. But I think Carolina has always like DeAngelo more than Stewart, and they paid Williams like he’s the surefire #1 guy. I think Carolina is a better offense than many pundits are expecting. They have an awesome wide receiver, a young QB that can run, and thus make defenses respect his legs, and thus open the running game a little. Jordan Gross is back, and he is their best lineman. Healthier and stronger up front, I expect Williams to break 1000 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2011.

Ask Papa Weimer: Fantasy Football Draft Kit Edition

We’ve been instructed to put together as much “draft help” content up as possible – to change the things we normally do to better aid the masses in putting together winning fantasy squads. From what I’ve been told, the site is going to be popping with such articles, and possibly even a way for you to rank your very own squad based on a new formula. But that will come, for now it’s all about my answers to your questions…

Now, while I’m supposed to make this as much about fantasy drafting as I can, forgive me if I do what I want from time to time and just post some humorous answers to even funnier questions – what’s fantasy football Q&A without a laugh or two?

If you’re new to the site, or me, Papa Weimer, I’m an old terse man with a knack for the sport of football. I’ve spent many an hour winning staring contests with the television on Sundays, Mondays, and sometimes Saturdays and Thursdays… If you want to get a hold of me and see if I can’t assist you in answering one of your questions, send your mail to papaweimer50@hotmail.com – I’ll get to answering your Qs as quick as possible.

Here are some of the emails I’ve answered over the lockout….

Dave in Fernberg asks, “If there’s no NFL season will you finally answer my questions about CFL or continue to shun me by mocking my emails with replies titled, “What does C stand for?”???

Dave, of course I won’t ever answer those emails seriously, because they are jokes, right? I mean, they are mock emails, similar to mock drafts, similar to mock leagues, because they don’t still play games in Canada, do they? I mean, I know Buffalo is basically Canada, but it’s still the US. Canada is where they play hockey, not football. I know you guys get football on your TVs, 98% of your population lives within 100 yards of the US-border, so just pick up a coat hanger, bend it around your hockey stick, plug it into the back of your TV and see if you can’t steal cable from your big red white and blue brother. Silly, Dave….  PS – Where’s Canada?

Dustin in Oregon writes, “I hear the players and owners are getting their ducks in a row – speaking of Ducks, do you think Legarrette Blount could be better than Steven Jackson? My OSU brother in law is giving me 10-1 odds on a $50 bet after I told him that Blount and Jackson will be close. Should I take it or am I just losing $50?”

That’s actually closer for me than you’d think – I would rather have Steven Jackson if I were deciding one way or another, but I like me some big bad Blount force. It’s close enough where I would probably take that bet at a 3-1 payout – so 10-1 sounds great! You have to look at it like this, Steven Jackson hasn’t been a scoring machine ever, so despite his giant percentage of plays in St. Louis, he doesn’t have those high scoring days like some other backs. Playing an entire year is going to help Blount, but not as much as walking into camp with the #1 gig. Caddy Williams is likely gone, and he’s going to be a 3rd down back even if he stays. Blount is the guy, and he runs real hard and is real bit – so I’d put his upside at 1200 yards and 12 touchdowns – but I think his downside is 900 yards and 8 touchdowns – and since Jackson is getting older, his injury risk is going up – I think you have odds too good to pass up, good luck with your angry Duck!

Scott Pa from Texas asked, “I know the lockout is in full effect, so maybe fantasy questions right now will go unanswered, but I’m interested in your rookie RB rankings (if the season actually goes down) – you have a Top 5 for me?”

From one Pa to another, you betcha, bub! From the first time I watched Mark Ingram run, I couldn’t help but think, “that guy is going to be a top 10 RB in the NFL the day he steps foot on the field”. Then he went to the combine and didn’t run super fast – and I figured, I could care less that he wasn’t the fastest back of the bunch after 40 yards, he was still one of the fastest guys to 10 yards and 20 yards – what’s more important? So his top end speed isn’t amazing, and he won’t be busting Jamaal Charles or Chris Johnson 60 yard runs a couple times per year – big deal – he’s still a beast, runs real hard with great balance, and he’s the #1 back in this draft. If I didn’t think so much of Jahvid Best, LeShoure would probably be 2nd, but because Best will almost surely get half the carries, Mikel drops down a spot or two. Ronnie and Ricky are gone, or so it seems, and Daniel Thomas is the next guy in line. He was a solid player as the only offensive threat at Kansas State, and I think he’ll be solid in the league as well. He’s a big back with good speed. The rest goes like this.

Mark Ingram, Daniel Thomas, Ryan Williams, Mikel LeShoure, and Montario Hardesty….

Alright, I know Hardesty was a a draft pick 2 years ago, but he hasn’t played a down yet – so he’s still a rookie, right? Like Blake Griffin in the NBA a couple years ago? If that’s the case, look out for Ben Tate, too… Alright, just a rookie, I’ll go with Roy Helu Jr. Splinter Shanahan can stumble upon a solid runner from time to time, and you never know, Roy could be that guy.

BGTrouble in Alaska asks, “Randy Moss or Chad Ochocinco?”

Ugh… Why didn’t you just throw Terrell Owens in there with those guys. TO would get the nod if it wasn’t for his mystery injury, his probability of starting the season without a team, and his destructive locker room habits. But hey, you didn’t even ask about him… It’s hard for me to believe that Moss will ever be a fantasy force again. The way he gave up last season, his poor shape, his half routes in full effect, I just don’t see him being a guy I’d ever like to start – but with the last pick of my fantasy draft, if he’s there, I might just take him on principal. So I’m a hypocrite, sure, but I’ve been wrong before (like last time Moss was trying to flunk out of the league). He probably has a better feel for the WR position than anybody ever, his physical tools are nightmarish for CBs, and if he got into the right situation, he could stun me and turn into a starter again – but I think Chad Johnson has a better chance of getting that done. I guess there are more places that I think Chad could succeed. Moss needs that special circumstance. Chad just needs to go to a team with a WR better than him and an offensive line that can block long enough for Chad to get open. If I had to pick, I’d take the namechanger!

More of the Draft Kit to come! Hope this helps!

Week 16 NFL Football: Things That are True

I watched some football this weekend. Every weekend I notice things. Sometimes I get enough time to break from my routine to share those things with you. Here are 10 things that are true.

Sam Bradford is a pimp: In a Week 16 game that kept their destiny up to them, Sam Bradord was damn-near perfect. I’ve always loved this kid (don’t believe me? go HERE). Bradford didn’t have much of a running game to lean on as Steven Jackson went for just 48 yards on 24 carries (a lowly 2ypc). Without that, all he did was carry the team – a team without a #1 receiver, without any commodity outside of Ste-Jack. He went 28-37 for 292 yards, a touchdown, and no interceptions. His leading receivers? Danario Alexander – 6 grabs for 99 yards (11 career catches before today), Brandon Gibson, Danny Amedola, Daniel Fells…. I’m just saying… PIMP.

Carson Palmer didn’t miss TO or Ocho: Carson Palmer might be sitting on his Lazy-Boy right now, his arms out to the side with hands crunched in a fist (except for one select finger) – the direction of each fist accurately aimed in the direction of each star receiver that sat out today. Carson had his best game of the year, an almost flawless 16-21 270-yard, 4 touchdown, 0-interception day that ended the San Diego Chargers’ hopes for a playoff spot. Carson didn’t need those guys, and he didn’t need a killer rushing attack, he just needed some time in the pocket and some receivers that worked their A’s off for a chance at a catch, deserving nothing, entitled to nothing. Good on ya, Red Palmer.

Eli’s shame-face, unbeatable: I stumbled upon the Packers’ beatdown of the Giants and all I could see was Eli Manning’s face all crunched up and gooey from disappointment. Some people wear their emotions on their sleeves’, but Eli wears his right on his face, and it’s awesome. I didn’t know the score until I saw Eli’s grimace, and I could tell it was GOOD! Ha. The Giants got kicked around, and now the Packers will end up having to beat a Chicago Bears team that won’t be playing for much, probably resting, for a playoff spot. I’m not giving it to them quite yet, but I bet Eli’s face tells it all right about now.

The Patriots are better than you: Yeah, I’m talking to you – anybody – the Patriots are better than you. Tom is terrific, their run game is solid, they can beat you 7 different days of the week, 7 different ways. They are coached better than you, they know how to win better than you, and they are the best home team in football. Oh, and they get home-field throughout. I’m not giving it to them, but if I was Eli, I’d probably be pouting about it right now.

6-9 Seahawks, still in it: The NFC West’s playoff spot was not decided on Sunday – weird. Will it ever be clear? You bet! When, you ask? Well, the last game of Week 17, that’s when – in Seattle, when the disgustingly useless Seahawks play the not-quite-hapless St. Louis Rams. The Rams should win, and with Sam Bradford, a good coach, and an improving defense, they should run the show for a long time out West. Still, the Hawks are still in it at 6-9, and that’s disgusting. The division is 23-37 on the season. That’s -14. Gross. The next worse division is the AFC South, and every single team in that division is better than every single team in the NFC West. All kinds of yuck in this mess.

Pick a quarterback and stick with him: Alex Smith, David Carr, Troy Smith… Matt Leinart, Derek Anderson, Max Hall, John Skelton…  Matt Moore, Jimmy Clausen, Tony Pike… Chad Henne, Chad Pennington (1 second), Tyler Thigpen, Chad Henne…. Vince Young, Kerry Collins, Vince Young, Rusty Smith…. Listen, I’m all for sending a cat to the bench and going with a new guy if you think he’s better – but this wishy-washy crap will only get you to a losing record and in most cases send you off for the summer looking for another job. If you make the change, it better be for a good damn reason, and if it doesn’t work out for a game or two, you better be willing to stick to your guns. And Jeff Fischer, Ken Whisenhunt, have you two guys at least learned not to fire your QB because you don’t like him?

Tim Tebow’s Broncos: Dude’s going to be alright. Keep hating, everyone. I want to know, you’ve taken hating Tim Tebow from me. I did it plenty, but with everybody doing it and claiming him to be an NFL failure before he took a snap, I have to like the kid. Thanks a lot. He plays hard, and he wants to win – not “want to win” like most people “want to win” but he “wants to win” like real winners “want to win” and I don’t see why he won’t.

Good bye Mike Singletary (and more): My favorite player of all time, Mike Singletary, made about 100 bad coaching decisions over his short career in San Francisco. Having the respect I do for the guy, I hope he gets another chance some day and that he learned from his mistakes. But Mike, you’re not the only one… Good bye, John Fox, Gary Kubiak, Tony Saprano, Jack Del-Rio, Marvin Lewis, and maybe Jeff Fischer and some interim coaches as well. It was real.

Oh AFC South:You had a chance to dethrone the Colts. They aren’t good this year, Peyton is off his game, Joseph Addai was out more than he was in, many draft picks didn’t work out in the past few years for a team that usually hits the draft in the bull’s eye. But you really let them off the hook. Nobody wanted to crown them, but you did. Congratulations! I’m sure they’ll win the thing for the next 5 years – and you had a chance to get them when they were down. The pee down your collective leg is smelly.
