A Must Read Before Your NFL Fantasy Draft

Adrien Peterson: Cinn at home, at Car, at Chi

Michael Turner: NO at home, at NYJ, BUF at home

Matt Forte: GB at home, at BAL, MIN at home

DeAngelo Williams: at NE, MIN at home, at NYG

Turners matchups look juicy as New Orleans and the Jets can be beat on the ground. The other three don't look so appetizing! Williams might be the worst and remember he splits carries.

Forte and AP don't have easy roads... as you never want to see Minnesotta, Chicago or Baltimore on your schedule as a runningback.

Bargain rbs with light schedules;
Larry Johnson: BUF at home, CLE at home and at CIN
Chris Johnson: STL, MIA and SD all at home!!! how sweet is that?

Larry Fitzgerald: at SF, at DET, STL at home

Randy Moss: CAR at home, at BUF, JAC at home

Calvin Johnson: at BAL, ARZ at home, at SF

Andre Johnson: SEA at home, at STL, at MIA

While none of these matchup groups look really tough, Calvin Johnson at Baltimore during the first week of the playoffs could be a death wish. Remember also that wide receiver matchups are far different than running backs.

Playing Cup Cake teams for WRs can be a bad thing... if your runningbacks get the job done there's no reason to pass anymore, right? tricky tricky

Here are a couple wide receivers with great playoff matchups;

Roddy White: NO at home, at NYJ, BUF at home

TJ Houshmanzadeh: at HOU, TB at home, at GB

Jason Witten: SD at home, at NO, at WAS

Antonio Gates: at DAL, CIN at home, at TEN

Tony Gonzales: NO at home, at NYJ, BUF at home

Dallas Clark: DEN at home, at JAC, NYJ at home

The tight-end position can be a bit of a challenge when looking at match-ups. You should however consider the tight-end as a blocker against teams with good pass rush abilities.

If Jason Witten has to protect his room-mate from getting sacked everyother down, it is pretty hard to catch passes! I really like Dallas Clark with the absence of Marvin Harrison.

Antonio Gates isn't as popular as he used to be, but make no mistake that when healthy he is almost impossible to cover. Tight-ends can be a big threat and more confident catching touchdowns at home.

Thought worthy alternatives;

Heath Miller: at CLE, GB at home, BAL at home

Kellen Winslow: NYJ at home, at SEA, at NO

Tom Brady: CAR at home, at BUF, JAC at home

Drew Brees: at ATL, DAL at home, TB at home

Kurt Warner: at SF, at DET, STL at home

Peyton Manning: DEN at home, at JAC, NYJ at home

The hardest part of playing fantasy football is the ability to draft players that you HATE. Tom Brady is a fantasy nightmare to me.

I hate his guts as a member of the Pats, but I have the fantasy knowledge to use him as a fantasy player. Once you can get past that you will be closer to winning your league.

Warner clearly has the easiest fantasy playoff schedule of the four ,on paper that is.
Brees looks to have the toughest as I wouldn't want to put my money on playing at Atlanta then play late season matchups against Dallas and Tampa.

Possible qb steals;

Matt Ryan: NO at home, at NYJ, BUF at home

Matt Hasselback: at HOU, TB at home, at GB

It is important not to over-think your picks based on "WHAT IFS"... leave that to me
