Well, the preseason always shifts the fantasy status for many players. Nearing our first ever action in the CGFFL, all owners are gazing at that preseason games hoping their current players are making progress. Keep your eyes pealed! The season is 6 days away.
Opening Segment - Our focus this week is on Michael Turner, the Atlanta RB who exploded onto the scene in 2008 is lighting the preseason up. Turner has placed a 24.8 points on the scoreboard in only 3 series of play, and has been bringing up the nagging question, is Michael Turner the #1 RB in fantasy football? Most leagues have Turner going anywhere from #2 to #4, but few have acknowledged whether Turner should be taken ahead of fantasy giant Adrian Peterson. Turner was taken by my Wenatchee Grizzlies at #4, but his performances suggest he may be the guy to take in other leagues at #1. Only time will tell.
Player Updates
-That Brett Favre guy is back.
-Jonathan Stewart has still yet to play a game or practice in over a week. His status is one to watch. If Stewart stays on the mend, the stock of DeAngelo Williams and Mike Goodson grows.
-Chris Johnson continues to struggle as LenDale White and Javon Ringer plead their case for more time.
-Glenn Coffee appears to be rising into the handcuff conversation. Possibly hampering Frank Gore's stock.
-Brandon Marshall has been working with the Denver scout team, and looks like a big bust candidate for 2009.
-Oh, did I mention that Brett Favre guy is back?
-Tom Brady has posted good numbers through his first few preseason games. Looks poised to be another Top 3 fantasy QB.
-Brian Westbrook says he is healthy but continues to have limited work. The way LeSean McCoy is playing, those two will split carries as long as Westbrook stays healthy. If not, McCoy's stock sores.
-Joesph Addai has looked okay with the new look Colts, but Brown does look better. Brown is a sleeper to do big things this year.
-I personally think Ryan Grant is a sleeper to have a big season.
-More updates throughout the football weekend in another post!
League News - Well, its been to many months since last season, but fantasy football season will return next Thursday when the Jaguars and Eagles kick off! Be sure to send me your starters by Tuesday!
