It's pickup and drop time here for week seven. The pickups are a little late to help most of you with your waiver claims, but it should still help you navigate free agency throughout the week. Not all of these moves need to be made, and you should always consider your team before doing anything, but here is a short list of guys for you to be picking up or dropping this week...

Yesterday, I ran through all of the morning games, and this afternoon I've been running through all the late and night games from week six. Right now, it's time for the Cleveland at Oakland game. This wrap up itself is going to have both a look back at the game for real life purposes and is going to explain the fantasy implications of each game.....

Top Ten NFL Quarterbacks 2011 - The Not Quite Top Ten Edition
With the lockout on the verge of ending, It's time to start discussing the NFL more. Unfortunately, it's hard to evaluate how teams are going to look this season until after the lockout ends. However, I can discuss players. I'm a man of my own opinions here at Big Derf Sports, and I don't want people to be too surprised when we get into the season and I've got a low opinion on a guy like Michael Vick. Everyone should know what they are getting into. It's also important to note that these are my opinions of the real world talents of these quarterbacks and should no way be confused with my fantasy football rankings, which will come after the free agency period.
Also, rather than blowing my whole load at once, I realized as I was writing the list that I have quite a bit to say about each player. So, I'm going to release this list in three different posts over next few days. The first post here is about the biggest name players to not make my top ten list. Then I'll release the #10-#6 segment of my list, and then #5-#1 after that.
For now, onto to big name omissions...

Free Agency Starts At Home: The Cincinnati Bengals' Five Biggest Player Decisions
Assuming they get a new collective bargaining agreement done, NFL Free Agency is scheduled to begin on March 3, 2011. I'm going to go through every team between now and then and identify their top five free agents and try to determine what should be done with each player, be it resign them or let them walk. I'm going team by team in draft order and currently am at the fourth pick in the draft, the Cincinnati Bengals.
The 2010 Bengals season was a huge disappointment. The won the AFC North in 2009, going 10-6 while sweeping their divisional games. In the off-season they added Terrell Owens and were expected to be in the playoff hunt again, but they never played to their potential.
The team would play good halves or quarters, but rarely put together a full strong game. A glance at their schedule shows that they were within a touchdown in most of their losses, but they were out of most of those games, only keeping the final scores close by scoring late.
Head coach Marvin Lewis will return, along with most of the members of a young underrated defense. However their offense was their weak link last year and the organization has a decision to make with many of the offense's high profile names.
