The trip continues and by that I don’t mean your face melting off because you’re still LSD. BTW, if you are on LSD I do promise your face isn’t actually melting off. Or is it? Have you checked? Go look in the mirror to make sure. No, the trip we’re on is to the center of the Fantasy Football universe by looking at how we’re ranking these mo’fos for the 2013 season. I already gave you my Top 10 For 2013 Fantasy Football here which you can find in the 2013 Fantasy Football Rankings there. If that doesn’t quell your thirst for random links in an opening paragraph then I give you this. You satisfied now? Good, that means you’re ready to take a look at the remainder of the top 20 for 2013 Fantasy Football with me…
Please, blog, may I have some more?As we start rolling out the 2013 IDP Rankings here at Razzball, I thought I would start with the easiest position first. JJ Watt is the consensus #1 IDP this year, and his 2012 numbers were even more impressive than those of Calvin Johnson and Adrian Peterson considering he was a 3-4 Defensive End. While you might have trouble deciding between a gamut of players to take first at any other position, you can rest easy knowing that Watt should be the first DL taken and that it took me three tries before correctly spelling gamut.
Please, blog, may I have some more?If you’re a Fantasy Football addict – and I believe in your ability to be one and that you are – you’re no doubt aware of some shenanigans going on in the Eagles’ OTAs right now. But before we get all worried and weirded out – and why would you, you haven’t drafted yet – let’s […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?With the NFL season approaching – and by approaching I mean it’s never going to get here! – we get to finish off the dynasty rankings with what might be one of the most painful positions to try to manage in fantasy football. In the past few years, the tight end position has gone from extremely unimportant to now the focal point of many offenses, making the position in fantasy football much more relevant. Unfortunately the talent that is available is extremely top heavy, leaving only a few options that you have to spend either a lot of money on in an auction draft or a high pick in a start up. My recommendation? If you miss out on the Top 2, and with Rob Gronkowski’s health in question, maybe just the Top 1, you have to look to add multiple options and look to find the next great option to help your team become dominant. Let’s take a look at the dynasty tight end rankings and some options that could rise to the top of the rankings in the near future and long term.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Where have I seen this name before? *Riffles thru notes* Ah here it is! Hrm, that’s nice and all but I seem to remember seeing it somewhere else… *Riffles thru more notes* Ah yes here, I knew the title of this post sounded familiar. BTW, do you know the difference between ‘riffle’ and ‘rifle’? I didn’t until today and now I have something to talk about at the next fantasy football expert cocktail party:
Please, blog, may I have some more?And so it begins. What once was a quaint and quiet summer turns it’s sun-squinting eyes towards fall and all the joy it entails. Look beyond your fun in the sun and trudge with me into the cold, crisp quiet of the Autumnal turn towards the gridiron as we inspect the players you’re going to put at the top of your draft queue. Fear not, rugged nobleman, for this journey – though long – will have a guide. A guide who is here to keep you on the path towards glory and – if the Lord wills it – victory and all the fruits that go with it. Your goblets forever filled with mead and your women (or men) scantily clad while they feed you grapes and shizz…sorry, ran out of steam on this epic yarn inspired by really liking LOTR-type movies and things. You ever notice how actors do movies like that with weird British accents even when the characters aren’t actually British? Is Brit supposed to be the tone you go for when you’re trying to sound serious? Why not Australian? I believed Rocko when he told ME garbage day was a very dangerous day…wait, where was I? Oh yeah, let’s kick this off right with a look at the top 10 players for the 2013 fantasy football season…
Please, blog, may I have some more?I don’t always draft wide receivers early but when I do, I don’t want to. Wide Receiver is yet again deep. There’ll be some pitfalls here and there but hopefully none as big as there were last year (I’m farting in your general direction, Larry Fitzgerald). Also like last year, I plan to hear plent of guff about where some guys are ranked compared to others. Problem is, I’d say there are about 17 or 18 guys who could be counted on as WR1s this year, especially in PPR settings and whaddayaknow, I’m ranking them in PPR so that statement fits. We already lost one member of my top 10 to injury this year when Michael Crabtree fell down, went boom at the OTA last week. Current word on the street is Anquan Boldin is getting on nicely Colin Kaepernick…calm down Chris Culliver I didn’t say ‘getting it on’! BTW, has anyone told you you’re cute when you’re angry? Chillax, you’re not my type either as you have an adam’s apple. I don’t believe the hype with Boldin and think it’ll still think there’ll be someone else who stands up in that Crabtree role of the wide receivers which you’ll glean from my off-season rankings for wide receivers for 2013 fantasy football below…
Please, blog, may I have some more?So the off-season doldrums continue and the latest headlines include Maurice Jones Drew assaulting a bouncer in Miami, and former NFL wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson chasing down Justin Beiber in a Prius….Seriously the season needs to hurry up and get here, not sure how much more NFL TMZ I can take. I mean what kind of self-respecting bouncer gets assaulted by a guy that is 5’7” coming of a Lisfranc injury? And what is self proclaimed tough guy doing driving a Prius in the first place! I’m just going to leave this to Mike Ditka and give this month a big old Stop It!
Please, blog, may I have some more?It was an eventful Wednesday last week to say the least. A man found a 1938 comic book inside the walls of his house, a jailed Pussy Riot member is currently on hunger strike and Paris Hilton signed with Lil’ Wayne’s recording company and plans on dropping a new album in the near future…hey I said it was eventful, I didn’t say it was all important. Of course the real news is that the San Francisco 49ers have lost Michael Crabtree for the foreseeable future to a torn right achilles tendon, for which he had surgery Thursday. To quote Harbaugh on this shituation ‘we do not anticipate it will season-ending for Michael’. Of course, that means we shouldn’t expect Crabtree to be ‘season-beginning’ anything either. Instant fantasy analysis: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Ok, now that we got that out of the way, let’s see what this all entails for this 2013 Fantasy Football season…
Please, blog, may I have some more?Gather round the campfire children where we tell the story of how deep running back is this year. Don’t worry, it’s a short story, could almost call it a novella really since no one has played yet. I mean, Darren McFadden isn’t hurt yet so we know it’s too early to even start thinking that way. You’re a seasoned veteran at this, you know better. Like when you caught Santa schtupping your mom on Christmas Eve. You know you’re not Claus, Jr and you put it together that there really was no such thing as ‘ole Saint Nick. Someone is gonna get hurt or dinged up before the draft starts and we’re all gonna panic but that’s for August. It’s May, chillax. I like RB this year much better than I did last year at this time but I still think caution is appropriate. I’d like to get 2 RBs out of the first three rounds. Heck, I might even go 3 if the right wide receiver doesn’t curl up in my lap and purr especially in a one QB league. I said it was deep, I didn’t say you shouldn’t reap the benefits! So with that, let’s see how the rankings are shaping up so far for this 2013 fantasy football season…
Please, blog, may I have some more?So the dead zone strikes again as I try to filter out the unimportant sports news of baseball and the NBA playoffs, don’t even ask me who’s in the playoffs as I really have no idea. I look to what little headlines in sports intrigue me. The NFL Draft seems to be a hot topic of discussion as it was announced that the draft will be pushed two weeks later which in my opinion really doesn’t make that much of a difference although people are completely losing their minds over this. What if it falls on Mothers Day? No problem, do what you always do order some prearranged flowers from a .com florist and tune into what is the best draft in sports. The way I look at it, it gives us two more weeks to dig into our already over-analysis of the future stars in what is the greatest sport, football.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Over the course of the off-season we’ll be looking back at some of the major players who ‘broke out’ or outperformed their ADP by a drastic amount in the hopes that we can get a feel for what their 2013 fantasy football season holds and whether the break out is here to stay. Today the review subject is Kyle Rudolph.
