Don't panic!

Yeah, someone in one of my leagues made SIX roster moves during the games Sunday too. Yeah, he got all the hot waiver wire picks. On the flip side, he dropped Jerious Norwood - a relatively popular RB4 choice. Norwood didn't get a chance this weekend while Petrino kept feeding the ball to an ineffective Dunn. How long do you think that will happen? Not all season. Norwood will still get his chance. My point is, if someone is picking up all the one week wonders, they have to drop someone to do it with. Be the guy picking up the good players, not the guy dropping good players to pick up the one week wonder.

I have been pondering content during the season, now that our drafts are complete and the winning and losing has commenced.

Obviously, I planned on periodic updates on how my variously drafted fantasy teams are doing, but there are WAY too many sources of sit and start prognostication to attempt to compete with all of them. I will probably just try to bring out the gems worth commenting on.

Speaking of which - Derrick Ward, RB Giants, is probably already gone in most leagues. You can live without him, probably. Several of his next four or five games are going to be against stout defenses. On the other hand, he is going to be a starting RB for the next 3-5 weeks. Pick him up if you have room but be careful who drop. Remember that Jacobs is AT THE LEAST going to get the goal line carries when he comes back so Ward's upside is very limited.

As a Jacobs pimp, I have him on almost all of my rosters. Fortunately for me, my RB 4 in most leagues is Tatum Bell, who had a decent weekend for Detroit.
