Tricks and Treats on the Waiver Wire

Happy Halloween. We're headed to a Halloween party tonight where costumes are mandated...what will I be? Is there really any question? A Broncos player.

Anyway, I've already posted links to many waiver wire suggestions earlier this week (check out Monday's post and Tuesday's post), but you know there's always room for more. Thought I'd throw in a few Week 9 rankings as well. So read on and enjoy Halloween!
  • FanNation's Wire Tap is full of RB advice. Personally, I am desperate for TE advice. With my TE, Owen Daniels, in a day-to-day situation, I am strongly in need of a TE that miraculously has not been snatched up already by one of the genius football bloggers in my Blogger League. My team in that league is already doomed for a miserable season but I'm trying to save face here. Check out the harsh advice for Shiancoe in this article...I think I'm nearing the point of just needing a warm body to fill my TE slot. Or even Mike Vrabel.
  • Just when I thought there was no love in the world for tight ends, CBS gives us Playing the Waiver Wire: A tight spot.
  • Gregg Rosenthal ranks waiver advice in a recent post to his Rotoworld blog Pancakes Blocks.
  • Wondering who plays in the Blogger league with me? Look no further than The Hazean who has a nice Grab Bag: Week 9 article up with thoughts on free agents you could possibly still grab.
  • FFTodays' Through the Wire: Week 9 - goes deep as always...well worth a quick read, I say.
  • And now some rankings...Mr. Fantasy has your RB, QB, WR, TE, K, and D/ST rankings for Week 9 all ready to go. Check em out...though I do remain a little confused by some of the rankings - as in, why on earth is Marion Barber ranked #34?? I guess it's always nice to see someone else's perspective, no?
  • For other rankings, try FF Toolbox's Who To Start/Weekly Start Bench Rankings or FFToday's Week 9 rankings.

Labor Day FF links

Happy long weekend! Here's hoping most of you are free to enjoy the 3-day weekend and the relaxation and fun that comes with it. I spent my Sunday participating in 3 fantasy football drafts scattered throughout the day and night, but I think I've finally wrapped up my drafts for the year. So like many of you I'm now turning my attention to the Week 1 games! But before we get to some player rankings and prep for Week 1, I want to make sure that all you experts out there are aware of the upcoming deadline for the annual accuracy contest that I run with the Fantasy Sports Trade Association. I compare preseason positional rankings from experts to the final outcome of the fantasy season to see which site had the most accurate preseason rankings, and this year's deadline is fast approaching: September 9th by kickoff. Check out the info on the FSTA site for more details and be sure to e-mail me your submissions. Now, onto Week 1! First up, let's get to some of this...

Note: the players are listed in no particular order. QB Start: Michael Vick, Kyle Orton, Matt Ryan, Jason Campbell Sit: David Garrard, Alex Smith, Jay Cutler, Vince Young, Carson Palmer RB Start: LeSean McCoy, Darren McFadden, Ahmad Bradshaw, Brandon Jackson Sit: Tim Hightower, C.J.

A hiatus

Update:  It is with a very heavy heart that I tell you all that yesterday, August 30th, I delivered our stillborn daughter, Caroline Mary. This has been an almost surreal and definitely heartbreaking experience and I appreciate the support in each and every one of your notes. Caroline will be honored and loved always. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your thoughts and prayers - they mean the world to our family. I have been a very poor blogger this month and feel I owe you all an explanation, particularly as this is crunch time for draft prep. I hope this is not too personal of a look into my life since I know most of you are just here for the football. I am nearly 18 weeks pregnant and we have learned that our baby (a little girl!) has triploidy, a chromosomal abnormality that means she has three copies of every chromosome instead of the normal two. The doctors have explained that it's a completely random occurrence and fairly rare that she has made it this far along, but tha...
