PAFFL League Thoughts...

First let me say that its two weeks in, while the results are important there's a LOT more football to be played and certain studs & duds won't keep up their paces, resulting in a regression to the mean, and results ultimately closer inline with the projections prior to launch.   

Austin Collie for Fred Jackson

Here's another fantasy football deal, classic postioning move prior to the auction.  

McNabb, DeWilliams, GJennings and more for Ryan Fitzpatrick and more...

In what shoots to the top of the biggest trades of 2011 list (and likely retains the crown for the season), is this doozy.  

NFL Rookie Projections 2010

All NFL teams have started camp (or will have by the end of today), with most NFL rosters nearly final (sans injury replacements), its time to look at the top rookies for the dynasty/keeper, deep league of the PAFFL.  Remember these are NOT necessarily the rookies who will put up the best numbers in 2010 but over the next two to four years will be the most valuable.  Also the $ amount refers to a 16 team league with $500 yearly salary cap with the projected selecting PAFFL team.    

Disappointing Fantasy Performers (thru 5 weeks)

Here are a list of fantasy players who have underperformed expectations so far in 2009. 

Top PAFFL Contracts

Another former tradition that I've gotten away from is highlighting some of the great contracts in the PAFFL.  This historically was to highlight the new deals but I think its important to showcase the best deals regardless of what year they were put on as long as they carry the same characteristic which is high production per dollar cost value.  Thus the stars at more than $55 (at QB & RB or $35+ at WR) won't be on this list unless they're way out pacing LT's '06 or Brady's '07 production, which nobody is coming close to this year. 

Week 9 Waiver Wire / Free Agent Pickups

Below are a list of potentially valuable Waiver Wire / Free Agent pickups for week 9 of the NFL season.  Maybe some of these guys aren’t worth a damn in shallow leagues but what’s the fun in dropping Marvin Harrison b/c he’s out a week for a guy like Wes Welker who is available as the #3 receiver in New England.  Ok, Welker shouldn’t be available in ANY league format but you get the point.

RB's Laurence Maroney & Sammy Morris for QB Trent Edwards & WR Vincent Jackson

The Fightin' Irie was extremely active over the past twenty four hours completing several deals.  The biggest of the season to date (IMO) was the following with East Bay Funk. 

FI acquires RB's Sammy Morris ($10, 2009) & Laurence Maroney ($55, 2008) & K Rob Bironas ($1, 2008) in exchange for East Bay Funk receiving QB Trent Edwards ($16, 2009), RB Michael Robinson ($7, 2008), WR Vincent Jackson ($7, 2007) & K Phil Dawson.

Is Tony Romo pulling a Rex Grossman?

Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo's first half stat line in tonight's Monday Night Football game is 8 for 16 for 99 passing yards 1 TD but 4 interceptions, 2 of which were returned for TD's.  That's Rex Grossman in his prime.  Now clearly there has been some bad luck but in the PAFFL league its actually made a game that appeared to be done into, well, a game.  East Bay Funk entered tonights' game with the Dallas K NIck Folk and Buffalo WR Lee Evans down 11 against Ron Jeremy Fanclub who had the Dallas QB Romo, take the negative 2 points for each pick returned for a TD and it's actually a tied game at half time - with no contribution from Evans and little from Folk.    

Steven Jackson & TO for Marc Bulger, Lee Evans & Michel Turner...

South Whore Jibbers and East Bay Funk announced a seven player trade this morning. 

South Whore Jibbers deal WR Lee Evans ($21, 2008), RB Michael Turner ($1, 2008), QB Marc Bulger ($55, 2009*), the rights to QB Gus Frerotte and QB Ryan Fitzpatrick ($1, 2008) to East Bay Funk for RB Stephen Jackson ($55, 2007) & the rights to WR Terrell Owens.
