Fantasy Football causes rage against Chris Perry?

The following is a post that was made by one PAFFL member on the private message board that I have repurposed here for posterity sake (minus any PI - personally identifiable information).  I thought it was classic Jack Trippers and the quandary fantasy owners go thru every day. 

Rex Grossman & Ocho Cinco for Larry Fitzgerald?

The first trade of the 2008 PAFFL season was consummated earlier this year between two of the league's most active traders, Team Kitty and the PA Short Bus. 

Team Kitty acquired QB's Rex Grossman ($55, 2009) & Kyle Orton ($11, 2007) and the rights to WR Chad Johnson ($55, 2007) from the Short Bus for WR Larry Fitzgerald ($53, 2009)

Buy Low? How Low? Chris Simms Low! Chris Henry Low! Ricky Williams Low?

The rich get richer in fantasy leagues when they know how to snag a player on the heels of some (or a lot) of bad news.  In an educated league like ours, swooping in at the right time can be highly profitable.

Chris Perry likely on the PUP list to start '07 season

The Cincinnati Bengals official website reports HC Marvin Lewis said RB Chris Perry is looking at starting his second straight season on the physically unable to perform list (PUP) and missing the first five games and six weeks of the regular season. Perry, also has his foot in a boot and "is in a non-weight bearing deal," Lewis said.

NFL.com's AFC North Team's Fantasy Overview...

NFL.com's Michael Fabiano is publishing overviews of each division by team of their fantasy value including schedule strength (against run & pass) and listing of each team's top 5 fantasy performers.  I've listed the top 5 for each team below and the overall summaries are good.  Some of this is academic but for fantasy nuts, its worth diving into the details.  This is for the AFC North.
