Westbrook. Check out the spreadsheet on my Average Ranking Posts - the "experts" give Westbrook an average draft ranking of 6.84 and Thomas Jones a 26.23 - big difference. Of course these experts aren't always right but I think there's substantially more upside to Westbrook than Jones. Also, Jones just strained his right calf muscle in practice this past weekend - he "hopes" to be ready for the opener (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/trainingcamp07/news/story?id=2972703&campaign=rss&source=NFLHeadlines). Not cool. Leon Washington is also historically better in the red zone than Jones, meaning many TDs may head to Leon instead. Granted, the Eagles are likely to use Buckhalter to temper Westbrook, but Westbrook remains "their versatile offensive centerpiece" - that quote comes from the Pro Football Prospectus 2007, who by the way projects Westbrook to have about 700 more total yards and 5 more TDs than Jones. Take projections for what they're worth, but FootballOutsiders.com does seem to know what they're talking about. Hope that helps.

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...

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...
