Check out this week’s edition of Risers and Fallers.

By Dalton Del Don – Senior Writer For those of you counting at home, that’s three straight impressive efforts from Joey Harrington. Despite a 1-3 record, I’m convinced Bobby Petrino can be a successful NFL head coach…Roddy White didn’t put up eye-popping stats Sunday, but he continued to be targeted and pulled in a terrific…

By Dalton Del Don – Senior Writer I went 6-8-2 last week. Overall record = 18-25-5. Not good, I know, but with nine home dogs on the slate this week, I’m predicting a rebound. Here are the Week 4 picks: Ravens -4.5 at Browns Bears -3 at Lions Packers -2 at Vikings Texans -2.5 at…

Take a look at this week’s Barometer. I wrote it yesterday morning, so some of the more recent injury situations weren’t covered. I’m higher on Roddy White than most – he’s a must-add in my book.

By Dalton Del Don – Senior Writer Three of the biggest busts so far have been Maurice Jones-Drew, Lee Evans and Reggie Brown, all of whom I touted before the season started. It’s actually been a weird year all around so far – as Larry Johnson, LaDainian Tomlinson, Steven Jackson, Frank Gore, Reggie Bush and…

By Robby Wellington – Staff Writer A lot has happened in the first two weeks. Instead of writing about it, I’m unveiling my current top 50 players. If my league held a draft today (standard scoring with 0.5 PPR and 2 WR, 2 RBs and a flex) this would be my cheat sheet. 1. LaDainian…

Take a look at this week’s Barometer.

By Dalton Del Don – Senior Writer While I’ve gotten plenty right so far – don’t make Larry Johnson a top-5 pick, Carson Palmer No. 1 fantasy QB, Adrian Peterson, Travis Henry, etc. – I can’t help but feel like a massive failure with my misses – Maurice Jones-Drew, Lee Evans, Vince Young hasn’t been…

Robby Says: Like Matt McConaughey in “Two For the Money,” all I do is work out and pick winners… I like a 6-point teaser with the Colts (-1) @ Tenn, Bengals (-.5) @ Cle and Eagles (-.5) vs. Wash: $55 to win $50. I’m teasing just the Colts and Bengals 6 points: $55 to win…

Check out this week’s super-sized version of the Barometer.

By Dalton Del Don – Senior Writer There wasn’t a bigger surprise this week than Randy Moss’ performance. He missed all of the preseason and even seemingly still appeared less than 100 percent, yet torched the Jets’ secondary play after play. Leg issues will likely continue to hamper him, but there’s obviously quite a bit…

Robby Says: Ever since Bodog stopped accepting my credit card, I’ve been unable to continually and habitually bet on sports (this is not necessarily a bad thing). To alleviate these withdrawal pains, I decided to give myself $1,000 in fake money and see how I do betting on NFL (and occasional College Football) games this…
