Professional Football Players Review Essay
When you are sitting there at your computer and you draft your team, you are basing your knowledge off of last year. Off of Devonta Freeman blowing up last year and that maybe he won’t be great because Tevin Coleman is back. But now that we are 2 weeks into football, we can start thinking about how people are performing. Now through these 2 weeks we have seen some sleepers, busts, and a lot of potential. To find these players, the ones who will win your fantasy football league for you, go to the waiver wire.

Now the scoring I use in this article is based off of ESPN standard scoring which is not PPR. I will also be using ESPN statistics of percentage of leagues players are picked up in.

The first player I want to bring to your attention is WR Quincy Enunwa. He is picked up in 5.4% of leagues. He in his two games has scored 12 (18 PPR) and 9 (15 PPR). Those are great numbers for 12+ team FLEX and great numbers in 10 or even 8 to have on your bench for bye weeks. Not only

In week 1 he scored 5 on 51 yards and 6 receptions but then in week 2 he had a great game scoring 13 with 75 yards, 5 receptions, and a touchdown. Because of some the running issues experienced in weeks 1 and 2 with Tevin Coleman and Devonta Freeman, we are experiencing a rise in passing for the Falcons. Matt Ryan is very well scoring 24 week 1 and 27 in week 2. A lot of less known players are getting thrown to like Justin Hardy, owned in .5 % of leagues. Justin Hardy had 1 reception for 8 yards which was a touchdown. It is risky for Jacob Tamme because some of these players are splitting up the passing game. Austin Hopper, another TE on the Atlanta Falcons had 84 yards on 3 receptions. Jacob Tamme is a risk but could end up being a top 5 TE at the end of the season. He will probably average around 6-10. He will have games through the season like week 2 but also like week 1. It is all about the matchup and when to play

    The 2011 NFL season was a banner year for Tom Brady. Brady threw 39 touchdown passes against only 12 interceptions and threw for 5,235 yards (the second highest total in NFL history) with a 105.6 QB Rating. Brady also led a Patriots team that had the NFL’s the 31st ranked defense and no real running game to speak of to a 13-3 record and within minutes of another Super Bowl title. If it weren’t for Aaron Rodgers and his superhuman performance at Quarterback, Brady would’ve almost certainly been awarded his third MVP trophy in 5 years.…

    As the young and naive children we were, adults always told us to never give up on our dreams. This statement usually applied to the impractical dreams of becoming president of the United States, transforming into a superhero, or playing alongside professional athletes. These were all big ideas and aspirations that fueled our carefree childhoods, and were appropriate practice for shaping the paths to our true passions we discover later on in our lives; particularly in high school. High school is where teenagers are able experiment and begin to understand themselves as individuals, rather than what everybody else likes to do. Of course there are exceptions to those who are the “followers” rather than the “leaders”, but I’d like to claim I had…

    While the Vikings gave up 120 rushing yards to Matt Forte, Rice and the Ravens' offense are nowhere near as threatening. Even so, Rice remains a threat on the ground and in the passing game. Torrey Smith will face a Vikings team that gave up a Bears franchise record for receiving yards to Alshon Jeffery in Week 13. Tucker has nine field goals in his past two games, and three 50-yarders in his past five. The Minnesota offense, outside of Peterson, is just not good. The Ravens defense is a very good fantasy start this week.…
