Fantastic Football

So the deadline for deciding on keepers for the Yahoo! fantasy football league I run is coming up. If you're in the league, you're in the right spot. I'll expectorate some wisdom here for you guys as it hits me.

Biggest decision for me right now is whether or not to keep Lendale White, RB for the Titans. I picked him up in a late round last year, so he won't hurt my supplemental draft opportunities, and I think he's a decent source of 8-9 trash TDs and 800 or so yds on the ground. But, if you read the pundits' pure trash, the whole Titans team is garbage, except for Rob Bironas, the kicker. Seriously? The kicker is the best player on the team - fantastically speaking.

I'm definitely keeping Peyton Manning and Larry Fitzgerald, and with those two kept, I won't be picking out of the free agent draft until the third round. So I have to hope a decent RB is available at that point. I had Edge last year, and he was so inconsistent that I benched him in favor of White several times last year. Or, I can keep Marshawn Lynch as my top RB, but that would mean I wouldn't have a pick in the free agent draft until round 4. And that's just too long to hope I can pick up another WR worth anything. And I'm not dealing with Reggie Williams again this year.

More fantastic football posts to come...stay tuned.

I would definitely keep lendale! He is my sleeper pick of the year and if you drop him he will be my first pick in the first round.

I'm thinking I'll keep Lynch actually. He's moving up draft boards everywhere. Good luck on getting Lendale!
