Taylor Piper October 21, 2013

Rising: Andrew Luck: What is the easiest way for a player to find his way into the “rising” section of my column? Out-play Peyton Manning. Luck had arguably the best game of his career,...

Week 7 fantasy football starts, sits

Taylor Piper October 18, 2013

Start: Tom Brady Every other analyst I’ve read has listed Brady as one of their must-sits. Don’t believe it. The Jets defense is great, but Rob Gronkowski should suit up this...

Fantasy Football Week 6 Recap

Fantasy Football: Week 4 starters and bench warmers

Rising: DeMarco Murray — Murray absolutely torched the St. Louis defense for 175 yards this past Sunday, adding another outstanding performance against the Rams to his Cowboy history. Let’s...

Fantasy Football: Who’s rising and who’s falling after Week 2

Taylor Piper September 17, 2013

Rising Michael Vick: Chip Kelly’s new offense is firing on all cylinders, and Vick looks like the key cog in the machine.  He is currently behind only Aaron Rodgers and Peyton Manning in...

Fantasy Football: Who to start and who to sit for Week 2

Taylor Piper September 15, 2013

Start: DeAngelo Williams: Williams had 100 yards from scrimmage against a very strong Seahawks defense last week. He is running well, and will be a low-end RB2 or strong flex option, at least until...
