Matt Moore for '12 cash....

If you say this looks like a deal that was just announced, well you'd be right.  With the changing winds of the league week by week, QB Matt Moore became disposable for South Whore.  

Matt Moore for '12 cash...

Small trade that could have a huge impact, South Whore Jibbers send $15 in 2012 cash to Team Kitty for QB Matt Moore ($25, 2011).  

Analysis:  It's refreshing to see Team Kitty take the "long" view in a trade, and if Moore keeps the job, this will elevate South Whore in a surprisingly down division to playoff contender status.  

Revised Fantasy Football Rookie Predictions

With the PAFFL auction less than a month out (and hopefully the NFL lock out coming to an end shortly), I wanted to post a revised prediction on rookie picks for 2011.  

2011 Fantasy Football Rookie Rankings

I love the NFL draft because it creates some clarity for team depth charts and most importantly brings new talent into the league.  This year, thanks to the lockout, the draft takes on more importance than any other over the past 24 years I've been following the draft, because there's been no free agency or trades, thus resulting in NFL teams applying need based selections more than I can remember in past drafts.  

No Andrew Luck in the NFL Draft & other notes...

With the news that Stanford junior (sophomore in terms of athletic eligibility) QB Andrew Luck will stay at in school for another year to graduate, twitter is blowing up with negative reactions.  First, we need to remember that its noble for a student to actually want to graduate from college.  Too many people forget that college football (or basketball) is actually COLLEGE and that these student athletes are actually STUDENTS.  

Steven Jackson for Bernard Scott, Jerome Harrison, Devery Henderson & Davone Bess

The Fightin' Irie were busy this morning, completing two separate deals, one a minor money deal, the other a pretty major blockbuster that in my opinion changes the balance of power a bit for '10 but puts Irie in a nice position for '11 if Scott and/or Harrison develop.

Top Rookies for '09

It's a quick look as the NFL Draft's first day starts to wind down on who the top fantasy rookies will be, specifically for the PAFFL (where long-term success is just as important as short term).  I'll update this as the 3rd round is completed but at this point here are the top guys based on talent & situation. 

Worst PAFFL Contracts

For every great contract there usually is at least one bad one, if not two.  So in an effort to highlight the good, this is to highlight the bad. 

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.
