Fantasy Football Team Names: 10 Names Guaranteed to Bring You Luck This Season

Sam WestmorelandJun 7, 2018

The 2011 fantasy football season was officially saved yesterday, courtesy of the players and owners finally agreeing to a Collective Bargaining Agreement. 

With it, millions of fantasy football owners breathed a collective sigh of relief. After all, without a fantasy football season, they would have wasted all the hours they spent coming up with the best possible team name for this season's campaign.

Everyone knows that a good, clever team name is key to your fantasy football success. It's what brands your team as your own and is the first thing the other owners in the league will see week in and week out. The last thing you want to do is give your team a terrible name and doom yourself to mocking for the foreseeable future.

Fortunately, we here at Bleacher Report are here to help. We've compiled the best team names guaranteed to bring your team good luck this season. We're keeping it as clean as possible (which is tougher than you think with Danny Woodhead in the NFL), but these are still some real gems.

10. I'm Only Kaeding

1 of 10

Poor Nate. Ever since he was a kid, I've got a feeling the Chargers kicker has been subjected to terrible puns of this nature.

Now that he's a kicker in the NFL, he's the subject of dozens of ridiculous fantasy team names. 

9. Cromartie's Kids

2 of 10

At this point, we're pretty sure we could fill up an entire fantasy roster with Antonio Cromartie's kids. The Jets cornerback has at least nine kids by eight women over the years, so he's certainly getting close to filling your average fantasy roster. 

Now, if only he could remember all their names so we could draft them. 

8. Britt Me Baby One More Time

3 of 10

Every time you think you've heard the last of Kenny Britt, the Titans wideout sucks us back in with another arrest or a massive fantasy performance that makes us all stop and get him off waivers.

Plus, as you can see here, he's clearly good friends with the volatile pop star who wrote the infamous song, and drafting him is as big of a risk as signing Spears to a long-term record deal at this stage of the game.

7. Plaxico Burlesque

4 of 10

The man who literally shot his career in the foot (well, okay, the leg) is back, which means it's time to come up with some fun new names making fun of one of the biggest idiots in NFL history. 

This one is one of the better names I've heard, although I'm not entirely sure why. 

6. Winning Is My Forte

5 of 10

This one's a bold statement, and it's definitely a high-risk choice to name your fantasy team.

Why? Simple: You're setting yourself up for all kinds of jokes about your severe lack of success should you get off to a slow start, and if you draft the Bears running back this joke involves, winning is clearly not your Forte. 

5. Shiancoepotamus

6 of 10

The Vikings tight end certainly didn't live up to the hype last year, struggling to make any impact on most rosters. So why not give whoever picked him a constant little reminder about just how big of a waste of space he was last season?

Of course, if it was you, there's a whole new level of funny hidden here. 

4. Woodhead for the Hillis

7 of 10

Admit it: You thought that when I used Patriots running back Danny Woodhead in the name, it was going to be incredibly inappropriate, didn't you?

Jeez, get your mind out of the gutter.

This one's still pretty brilliant, incorporating two of the most surprising running backs last season, while also giving your opponents a little advice on what they should probably be doing when they come up against your roster. 

Or what you're going to wind up doing if you're no good at drafting fantasy teams. 

3. The Herzlich Maneuver

8 of 10

It's not every day an undrafted rookie gets his own fantasy team name, but the former Boston College star linebacker grabbed by the Giants today is a special exception to that rule. 

When you perform the Herzlich maneuver, your opponents cough up the ball, which is surprisingly similar to the life-saving action this team name is based on.

Plus, it just sounds awesome, doesn't it? 

2. Corn on the Kolb

9 of 10

Anytime you can name your fantasy team for a career backup quarterback, you get serious bonus points. Sure, the Eagles quarterback is likely to get traded someplace where he can start, but when a team name fits a player's name this well, it's a real winner. 

This is one of the best potential names of the season, even if drafting Kolb is a sure way to doom your team to mediocrity next season. 

1. Wilfork for Food

10 of 10

This one literally had me doubled over with laughter for a solid minute. It's brilliant, clever and completely and utterly true in a number of ways. 

The Patriots defensive tackle is a man who loves him some food, and it's pretty clear Vince is willing to work for it. A lot of it. All the time. Especially Twinkies and Ho Hos.

In an interesting twist, his favorite food is corn on the Kolb, if you can believe it. I don't mean the small, yellow vegetable, I mean the Eagles quarterback that Wilfork is capable of swallowing whole.
