On the Wire: Week 11 Pickups and Waiver Wire Veterans from Week 10
By now, your season may be over, but there’s no reason to start cutting players like the Raiders unless they are still underperforming. Now is the time to grab up all those players the teams that beat up on you want to cripple them for their playoff run! That’s right. Bitterness breeds competition.

Week 8 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
There’s a lot of hotness this week, and many players not on a bye might have their best performance of the season for you.

The Jason Taylor trade that was rumored but always “danced around” by the Dolphins seemed like it was never going to happen until it did on Sunday. Little did we know yesterday that the bigger fantasy football news was still to come this week.
The other much-rumored trade of disgruntled New York Giant Jeremy Shockey to [...]

It’s minicamp time at Fantasy Football Fools, and we put on a few pounds of muscle this off-season. Now we’re back in the mix to lock up our starting position — unlike Jeremy Shockey.
Yes, we have a new color scheme and a [...]
