Divisional shenanigans

Well my hometown of D.C. certainly has been busy over the past few days: first they snag Willie Parker to join Larry Johnson and Clinton Portis in the backfield, and tonight Philly trades away McNabb to the Skins for the 37th pick in 2010 and either a 3rd or 4th rounder in 2011. I think this trade might have been concocted entirely by twitter in an effort to get an insane amount of updates going here. Now if only the Redskins could actually put together a decent o-line this year...

Let's get right to tonight's links:
  • The Hazean takes a quick look at the fantasy implications in Donovan McNabb Traded to the Redskins.
  • I heart offensive line talk - it just seems like there's never enough. So I've been a fan of Football Outsiders' Offensive Line Continuity Scores - draw your own conclusions but if nothing else, it's one of those interesting little nuggets to feed a football-starved mind in the offseason.
  • Meanwhile if your mind is more on the NFL draft, take a look at FFToolbox.com's Ben's Brain: NFL Draft Buzz - Rising and Falling for thoughts on which rookies are making moves up or down the draft list.
  • FFXtreme has expanded their 2010 projections to include all offensive positions - QBs, WRs, TEs (and RBs if you missed that link a week or so ago).
  • Working Man Sports has some fleshed-out QB rankings for 2010 - see why Tom Brady falls into Tier 2...behind Matt Schaub.
  • I'm digging the Bruno Boys' Three Burning Questions by team series - scope out the NFC West and NFC North so far.  
Finally, happy opening day for you baseball fans. And those of you that want to throw your hat in the ring for the Second Annual Fantasy Baseball Accuracy contest, it's likely not too late if you can demonstrate to us that your projections were live before tonight's game started - check out the details if you're an interested expert.

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...

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...
