Of the 13 leagues five are "Expert" leagues either for fantasy football magazines (Pro Forecast Fantasy Football or Fantasy Football Index) or the Fantasy Football Players Championship (FFPC) Pros versus Joes contest or the Scott Fish Bowl 480 Invitational contest.


This year I am in "just" 13 leagues... six are "active" leagues involving day-to-day roster management (adds/drops, lineup changes etc). Seven leagues are "draft and forget" or Draft Master/Draft Expert Leagues which require no additional work as the teams I drafted are fixed (no adds/drops, trades/waivers etc) and the computer optimizes my lineup each week.

Which slow starter do you believe will turn things around and be very good the rest of the way?

Jamaal Charles. The guy has no where to go but up after his slow recovery from an ACL tear. He gets week 5 off with a bye and can step into the lead back role now that Spencer Ware has fumbled in each of the last three games. Time for Charles to shine!

Week 4 Ask the Expert Question: Choose one player who has started out well who you believe can't continue his pace -- that fantasy teams should be looking to sell high on. And say why.


Choose one player who has started out well who you believe can't continue his pace -- that fantasy teams should be looking to sell high on. And say why.


Jordan Reed. Not that he has set the FF world on fire (16 catches, 190 yards receiving) but he has been consistent. I do not think this will last much longer. He will continue to see double coverage while Cousins spreads the ball around to a talented Redskin WR group and several TEs including Niles Paul and a resurgent Vernon Davis. Throw in the always potent threat of injury that Reed seems to constantly flirt with and you have a Top 5 TE that is on the downslope in 2016.
