Fantasy Football Tonight 8/26
GOING TO SUPERDRAFT
In just a few short hours I will be boarding a plane and heading off to wonderful Las Vegas where it will be 105 degrees tomorrow. Four days and three nights of non-stop eating, drinking, gambling and fantasy football talk. It is a difficult job but gosh darn it...somebody's got to do it, right? Anyways, I wanted to keep the loyal readers of this blog updated on what our plans are once we land in Vegas and what's in store for the next few days.
On Thursday night, I along with Ted Schuster (aka Hawkeye) will be hosting a special edition of Fantasy Football Tonight LIVE from the welcome center of the Superdraft. What is the Superdraft you say? Imagine your league's draft. Now add in free food, drinks and expert analysts like yours truly and Matthew Berry. Then imagine tons of celebrities like Shannon Elizabeth, Molly Sims, Gary Dell'Abate (Baba-Booey!), Stacy Keibler and performances from Flo-Rida and George Clinton. Then instead of your stinky basement, your drafting in beautifully decorated suites at 5 star resorts. Finally, place all of this smack dab in the middle of sin city and THAT my friends is Superdraft. Just listen to Gary Dell'Abate tell Adam Carolla about it in his latest podcast.
Ted and I will host the show from Superdraft before Todd Farino and RC Rizza take over for us for their Thursday staple edition of Fantasy Football Tonight. On Friday, we will be taking part in the commissioner's corner event hosted by ESPN's Matthew Berry. We'll be handing out T-shirts as well as plenty of draft advice and sleeper picks all afternoon long. Finally on Saturday, we will be broadcasting LIVE once again from Superdraft inside our own draft room where we will be doing a LIVE DRAFT for our Blog Talk Radio Listener's League. In addition to the shows, I'll be blogging from Superdraft each and every day with special breaking news alerts available to our Draft Kit Subscribers. If you are in the Las Vegas area, stop by and visit us. You'll get free T-shirts, Cheat-Sheets and maybe some VIP drinks on us! Look forward to seeing and hearing from you guys this weekend!!
DEPTH CHART MOVEMENT
David Clowney has officially moved ahead of Chansi Stuckey on the Jets depth chart. Clowney had been taking first team reps for over a week and has developed great chemistry with QB Mark Sanchez. Clowney is a decent sleeper selection because he can get down field and when healthy always seems to be making plays.
TRADE WINDS
There is a lot of trade rumors circulating lately which is highly unusual for the NFL. Here is what I've heard:
The Jets and the Ravens have been scouting offensive players for the Eagles presumably at the wide receiver position. Among the candidates there are Reggie Brown, Kevin Curtis and Hank Baskett. Each of these players could be lured away for nothing more than a mid-late round pick.
The Jets remain highly interested in Broncos WR Brandon Marshall. They will be making a phone call to Denver before they do anything else WR related.
Tampa Bay has publicly acknowledged that they have 3 QB's on the block right now in Byron Leftwich, Luke McCown and Josh Johnson. The team would like to get rid of either Leftwich or McCown which ever one gets the best bang for the buck. It is doubtful that Tampa would get much if anything in return for anybody other than possibly Leftwich, who may get them a late round pick.
I'M LOVIN'...
Las Vegas. Yeah that's right one last plug for the greatest place on earth. The weather is always warm, the drinks are always cold and the action literally never stops. Not to mention while there, you just may run into my man...The True Guru himself...Todd Farino!! In a couple of years, they will be putting that on the welcome signs over there.
