Foolproof Way To Win At Yahoo Fantasy Football
Is this is the same league that was able to pick Brady as a man who would break the touchdown record and that Randy Moss would be one of the most valuable players in 2009? It is. It's also the same one that I used to beat my friends in Yahoo Fantasy Football.
I'm telling you this because in 2008, I ended up with some seriously bad picks and a man who I was going to trade for a player that didn't fall in the third round like I was hoping he would.
So, I pulled a hail mary and beat my friends with this strategy here.
I won a sh*t ton of beer money from my friends with that. I feel like it's time I try this system to win some serous cash. But I'll still play Yahoo Fantasy football with my friends even after I win my next $3,000 check.
Regards,

Yahoo Fantasy Football Sleeper Watch Pt. 2
So every year, we get a few tight ends that break out and come seemingly out of nowhere to provide teams with a big boost as they head for their championship. It’s one of the reasons I don’t like to take a tight end in the middle rounds — I figure I could play TE roulette until I hit the jackpot.. heh. A lot of TEs are garnering buzz around the league already, but perhaps none has been as impressive as Jermichael Finley.
He was drafted by the Packers out of the University of Texas. Finley had a relatively quite 2008, catching six balls for 74 yards and a touchdown. He started just one game, and had only one game where he caught multiple passes. Incidentally, that was the last game of the season.
Finley has been a much bigger part of the offense during training camp and the preseason. In three preseason games, he has nine catches for 92 yards and two TDs. There’s even speculation that Finley will see equal time with Donald Lee, and with Finley being the superior pass-catcher, this could translate into some great fantasy lines.
I wouldn’t be shocked to see Finley make 40-50 catches and haul in five or more TDs this season. If he dominates early, he could earn more playing time quickly and as a result, his upside could be even higher. Don’t hesitate to kick a slow-starting TE to the curb if you see Finley start to heat up in September. Odds are, if you snooze, you’ll lose.
