Tony Romo Loses His No.1 Receiver
Romo and the Cowboys did not live up to their lofty expectation a year ago. In fact Dallas did not even make a trip to the playoffs in 2008.
When the off-season came many fingers were pointed at Terrell Owens being the main reason the Cowboys struggled. Common belief in the media was that Owens was a big bad bully and always cried for the football.
Because of this Romo maid poor decisions and tried to force the ball to No.81 more often then he should have.
While I do think some of this is true, I also believe Terrell was used as a scape goat. If it is true that Romo made poor decisions because a receiver was in his ear too much, then Tony will struggle the rest of his career. Point is I don't care what receiver it is, they are always in your ear about how they were open and this and that.
Anyway the Cowboys sent Owens packing and now Roy Williams (acquired in a trade with the Lions) will ascend into the No.1 receiver role for Dallas.
For my money I want to like Roy, I really do but this guy just seems to clown around too much. Everyone knows that the Lions had a bad season last year, but it was classless on his part when the media asked Roy about the Lions and he dogged them.
Then Williams blamed his lack of success in the Cowboys offense to the same problem Owens was supposedly complaining about and that was not getting the ball enough.
This year there are no excesses for Williams if he does not produce, the fans at the new Dallas stadium are going to boo him out of town. If that is the case he deserves what he gets.
Tony Romo's Fantasy Value in 2009
Now that there is no true prov-en No.1 receiver in Dallas, look for the Cowboys to be a run first offense. They have two excellent backs in Felix Jones and Marion Barber.
Romo still has his go to man over the middle in Jason Witten and Roy Williams is a talented receiver as well.
But if Williams should fail as the top receiver, I believe you will see another receiver (Patrick Crayton maybe) become valuable player for this team.
Look to draft Romo in the 4th or 5th round in your fantasy football draft this season. Tony will still give you solid numbers.
Fantasy Assets:
- Good offense
- Touchdowns maker
- Good yardage numbers
- Plays in a dome
Fantasy Liability's:
- Will be in a run first offense this year
- Can Roy Williams be a No.1 receiver?

Fantasy Rankings: Minnesota Vikings' Sage Rosenfels
Posted by
Sean E. Douglas
Sage needs to cut down on the mistakes
I want to like Rosenfels for his run and gun style of play but the man just makes too many mistakes.
Rosenfels can go out and make some great plays and then make a horrible one, like the fumble against the Colts in the 4th quarter. In that contest, Sage for all intents and purpose was trying to make a John Elway super bowl type of play to get a first down.
Only problem was he went air born, got hit by three guys and fumbled the ball. One of the Colts defenders then picked the ball up and scored a touchdown. The Texans went on to lose the game after this momentum shift.
I really felt bad for Sage after that game because before that happened he was having a good game filling in for Matt Schuab. If they had beat-in the Colts that day it would have been a huge confidence booster for the franchise.
But that is Rosenfels in a nut shell, the guy is that close to being a solid pro and then..........

Sage Rosenfels Fantasy Football Value in 2009
For all of Sage's problems the man can make some plays as well. He proved this in 2007 when in a 9 game stint he put up 15 touchdowns and almost 1,700 yards passing.
In the end Rosenfels did sign with the Vikings and now should be the starter (pending Favre signing) for the Minnesota.
While Tavaris Jackson is talented, he is better suited as a backup. Sage can make better throws down the field and at times look like a very good quarterback.
If Favre does in fact stay retired look for Sage as a decent backup in deep fantasy leagues this season. But if Brett should sign with the Vikings, Rosenfels won't see the field, as No.4 never misses games.
Fantasy Assets:
- Has talented Receivers
- Solid Offensive Line
- Plays in a Dome
Fantasy Liability's
-Turnovers
-May not start for the entire year
-Plays in a Heavy Run First Offense

Fantasy Rankings: New York Jets' Mark Sanchez
Posted by
Sean E. Douglas
Mark Sanchez Goes to a Winning Team
Top five picks are not supposed to end up on winning teams. But for Mark Sanchez that very thing happened as the Jets moved up from pick 17 all the way to number 5.
Selecting Sanchez was probably the best move the Jets could of hoped for after losing star Brett Favre to retirement (until he goes to the Vikings). After Favre's retirement the Jets were left with only backup Kellen Clemons as a half way viable option to run New York's offense.
Now the Jets have a player they can lean on as a future star for years to come.
How will Sanchez be used in 2009?
The quarterback from Southern California will benefit from having talented tight end Dustin Keller and receiver Jericho Cotchery. While these pieces are good, Mark's best assets are his great offensive line, running game and defense.
Some wonder if Sanchez will be the starter come week one and for my money I say he will be. Most of the time you don't want to rush a young quarterback in to fast because they usually will have a very bad offensive line and team.
But in this situation Mark will have excellent protection to help him as he develops into a solid quarterback.
Mark Sanchez Fantasy Football Value in 2009
Fantasy football owners will probably have to wait till next year before Sanchez is really worth more than a deep backup.
This season will be all about letting Mark help the team but not hurt the team, by throwing too much. Running the ball and playing hard nose defense, will be the Jets staple playbook for success.
I do see Dustin Keller as a decent option as young quarterbacks love to lock onto a tight end for help. Jericho Cotchery is still good enough to get 1,000 yards and 6 touchdowns, but those numbers won't come in a consistent fashion.
Fantasy Assets:
-Great Offensive Line
-Strong Arm
-Good Mobility
Fantasy Liability's
-He's a Rookie
-Will be in a Run first offense
-The last thing a quarterback develops is touchdowns
-Bad weather in December

Fantasy Rankings: Cincinnati Bengals' Carson Palmer
Posted by
Sean E. Douglas
Palmer and the Bengals Fall Apart in 2008
Many fantasy football teams fell on hard times with their quarterback situation because of Carson Palmer. What little Carson did play in 2008 was a horrible performance. But in the end that was just it, he didn't play much because of an arm injury.
For awhile, there was talk that Palmer would under go Tommy John surgery on his throwing arm. But in the end No.9 choose to let the injury heal naturally.
So far in the off-season it looks like Palmer is back and healthy again so this decision of no surgery was probably a good one.
Bengals Choose Kicker over TJ Houshmanzada
This off-season the Bengals ownership didn't do Palmer any favors when they opted to not use their franchise tag on TJ Houshmanzada and instead used franchised their kicker.
With moves like that it's no wonder the Bengals suck just about every season. Houshmanzada, Palmer and Ochocinco should all get keys to the city, for the fact that they even won a division title in '05.
At least ownership did sign Lavernious Coles to replace TJ in the offense. This will still provide Carson with two solid targets going into 2009.
Rumors are also flying around Bengals camp that troubled wide receiver Chris Henry is looking great as well. Henry has always had talent and right now Cincinnati needs him, more then ever before.
Carson Palmers Fantasy Football Value
For the past few years Carson has been a top 5 quarterback in fantasy football drafts. But not this season as his value will drop way down. Main reason is because we all will never really know if Palmer is back from his arm problem, until he holds up for the entire 2009 season.
As for your fantasy draft, look to select Palmer as a backup quarterback for your team. As the season wears on and he proves himself he could be a valuable asset down the stretch. If in fact Carson's arm is back then you will have a steal of a pick in No.9 this year for fantasy football.
Fantasy Assets:
- Touchdowns Maker
- Good Receivers
- Bad Defense (needs to throw a lot)
Fantasy Liability's:
- Needs to prove his arm is healthy
- Loss of TJ hurts (way to franchise the kicker management!)
- Bad Organization

Fantasy Rankings: Buffalo Bills' Trent Edwards
Posted by
Sean E. Douglas
Trent Edwards Gets Top Fantasy Upgrade in TO
Edwards was having a good 2008 until around mid season when the team fell apart. This off-season Buffalo gave Trent another play maker in Terrell Owens.
It seems that so far no one wants to talk about how this move will impact Edwards value. Instead everyone chooses to talk about how TO will be a cancer on the offense.
Terrell Owens has done nothing but make his teams quarterback a top 15 fantasy selection, at that position every year.
Things are no different with Edwards as now he not only has Owens but Lee Evans as a No.2 receiver. While Marshawn Lynch will no doubt serve a suspension, Trent will still have a good receiving running back in Freddy Jackson as well.
On the Downside
The one major negative Edwards had in the off-season is that his All-Pro left tackle (Jason Peters) was traded away to the Eagles. If the rest of Trents offensive line can not pickup the slack, it may lead to extra punishment from defenses.
Trent Edwards Fantasy Football Value in 2009
Edwards is at least a top 15 talent quarterback this season. With Owens on a 1 year deal he will have plenty of incentive to be a good boy and perform.
Lee Evans now becomes one of the best compliment receivers in football, as he will not have to face the top corner every week.
Unless you play in a very deep fantasy league, No. 5 should only be viewed as a early backup quarterback coming into 2009. Look for Trent as high as the 12th round in your fantasy football draft.
Fantasy Assets:
- Elite receiving core
- Strong arm
Fantasy Liability's:
- The loss of his left tackle hurts
- Bad weather in December

Fantasy Rankings: Seattle Seahawks' Matt Hasselbeck
Posted by
Sean E. Douglas
Player Info:
The Seahawks struggle with Injuries
Seattle started off on the wrong foot as an offense from week one of the season on.
Their struggles were due in large part to injuries, as Deion Branch missed all but one game, in the first 9 weeks of the season. Receiver Nate Burlson tore his acl early in the year at Buffalo.
Matt Hasselbeck had problems as well with a back injury last year and struggle to play most of the season.
With key injuries to the team it is easy to understand why the Seahawks fell to a 4 and 12 record. This down fall allowed the Cardinals to win the division with only a 9 and 7 record.
Hasselbeck is now healthy and has a new N0.1 target
This spring Matt is back to his former self. Zipping the ball around and showing no signs of back issues.
Wide Receiver TJ Houshmanzada is now signed with the Seahawks, this gives them a true No.1 on the team. Matt will also benefit from 2nd year tight end John Carlson. Throw in Branch and Burlson coming back and you have a good passing game.
Plus this team does not have a stud running back so they will need No. 8 to lead the team as a pass first, run second team offense.
Matt Hasselbeck's Fantasy Football Value
The Seahawks captain is just one year removed from his career best season when he had almost 4,000 yards passing and 28 touchdowns.
With a solid No. 1 receiver that has a history of being healthy in his resume, look for Matt to feel a rejuvenated urge to be aggressive with the football in 2009.
I believe Seattle will make a run at the Cardinals this year, for the NFC West Title.
Take Matt in your fantasy football draft as a top end, back up quarterback. This is the kind of guy that is worth stashing away in case your starter (Like Palmer or Brady last year) fails.
Fantasy Assets:
- Good Receiving Group
- In an Offense that should let him succeed
- Touchdown Maker
Fantasy Liability's:
- Needs to stay healthy
- Needs his Receivers to stay healthy
- Rains a lot in Seattle

Fantasy Rankings: Green Bay Packers Aaron Rodgers
Posted by
Sean E. Douglas
Rodgers Proves His Worth in 2008
In the spring of 2008 legend quarterback Brett Favre retired from the NFL. Upon this announcement, the Packers officially named former 1st round pick Aaron Rodgers, the starting quarterback.
Taking over for a icon quarterback, has proven to be no easy task in the history of the NFL. Every once in a while, you find a Steve Young after a Joe Montana. But even in that situation, Steve had to deal with lots of criticism and mostly by his own fans.
All was riding well for Aaron Rodgers in the off-season of 2008, until in Brett Favre decided he wanted to come back and play for the Packers.
Green Bay ownership had other plans then to bring Brett, back to the team, as they instead opted for Rodgers to take the quarterback position over.
There is no doubt that Wisconsin Cheese-head fans, are one of the top close nit community's, of sports fans in football. From the Super Bowl trophy being named after their famous coach Vince Lombardi, to the tradition of players bicycling young fans around when preseason begins.
This loving community is no doubt fascinated with one Brett Favre and his family. So when news came that the team didn't want Favre anymore, it was understandable when fans were irate.
Some one had to be blamed for this outrage and some fans choose to pin the blame on Aaron Rodgers.
Never the less as the season played out, Rodgers proved his worth as the Packers quarterback of the future. No.12 proved this with 28 touchdowns and 4,038 yards passing in 2008.
While I'm sure Cheese-head fans are still a little disappointed with not having Favre, they no doubt feel better about the Packers in the future. Now Aaron needs to lead the Pack into the playoffs.
Aaron Rodgers Fantasy Football Value in 2008
Rodgers outlook is bright for the 2009 season. With talented receivers in Greg Jennings and Donald Driver on the team, Aaron has the supporting cast to repeat his numbers from a year ago.
Look to draft Aaron as a solid 5th round pick in your fantasy football league.
Fantasy Assets:
- Strong Supporting Group
- Touchdown Maker
- Pass First Offense

Fantasy Rankings: New Orleans Drew Brees
Posted by
Sean E. Douglas
Player Info:
Drew Brees goes Pass Crazy
Weather your name was Marques Colston, Lance Moore, Reggie Bush, Peirre Thomas or Robert Mechum it did not matter to Mr.Brees. All he cared about was if you were open and he would get you the ball.
In 2008 Drew passed for 5,069 yards on the year. One of the greatest yardage totals in a season in NFL history.
His 34 touchdowns was also very good, for the Saints and fantasy owners as well. In fact in the three years, Drew Brees has been with the Saints he has improved his numbers every year. That's saying a lot, when you consider his in his first year he had 4,418 yards and 26 touchdowns!
Maybe what I like most about Drew is that he doesn't take sacks very often either. With totals of 18, 16 and 13 last year.
Drew Brees Fantasy Football Value in 2009
Drew has is back with all his band of marry men, so look for No.9 to shine bright yet again. It seems not matter what problems this guy goes through, he always comes out smelling like a rose in the end.
From the Phillip Rivers controversy, to dislocating his throwing shoulder he has blazed through his challenges. This is the true mark of greatness and you would be best served to pay attention.
Drew Breeze will make for a fine second round pick in your fantasy draft this season.
Again in his worst season with the Saints was 2007 when he had a slow start.
But by the end of that year he went on to post better numbers than his great 2006 totals.
With Tom Brady still needing to prove he is back from his knee injury and Peyton Manning going through so much turnover with the Colts.
Not to also add Kurt Warner is coming off of hype surgery, Drew Brees is the hands down #1 quarterback in the league this year.
Fantasy Assets:
- Distance Touchdown Maker
- In a Pass First Offense
- Plays in a Dome
- Great Offense Around Him
Fantasy Liability's:
- Colston had knee surgery this off-season
