First off, I haven't been reporting on football news because outside of a hard to predict or judge draft without free agency, nothing has happened. I'm assuming though, that of course there will be a full season of football played this year. There is no reason to believe there won't be football. Don't listen to the media and every little detail they give predicting they won't be football. Panic sells in the media. There will be a full season of football this year, and I'd also be willing to bet we'll be up to an 18 game season in the next few years.
That said, while I'm not reporting on football news until transactions start happening, I'm going to be talking about fantasy football still. I want to have something similar to a ESPN's draft kit full of information, ready for everyone to get ready to draft across a bunch of articles that can help everyone from newbies to ten-year vets like me. It's obviously impossible to debate overall rankings on players until free agency happens, but there are still things to discuss. There are players who have fairly set values because of their overall stable offenses. Most of the major players on teams like the Eagles, Packers, and Colts for example are all locked up through next year, so I'll be able to talk about those types of players. And of course, I can always do what I'm doing today and discuss draft strategy. Now that the draft has happened, we know the talent that will be there in the league. Free agent shifts will change opportunity for individual players, but it's fairly easy to see which positions are deep, and which are shallow.
Today, I'm going to be writing about my favorite draft strategy year in and year out, and one that should be more prevalent with everyone this year due to the weakness at the running back position...The Marshall Faulk Strategy
