NHL tonight


Tonight there are 4 big games in the NHL, lets look at what kind of line up we can make tonight.

Centers
Sidney Crosby is quietly having a good season.  While he hasn't been scoring many goals, he has been racking up the points.  I say pick him tonight.

Wings
At wing tonight, look at Marian Gaborik.  The former 40 goal scorer is always dangerous to light the lamp.  Also, if you are willing to pay the price, look at Taylor Hall and Max Pacioretty.  They are always looking to have a big game

Defense
As usual, I like to pick cheap defensive players.  Tonight is no different.  The first is not cheap however, Drew Doughty lit up the Olympics this year, and I'm hoping he lights up the lamp tonight.  Mark Fayne is my cheap defender of the night.  He averages 2 FP a night, hopefully he can double that tonight.

Goalie
The goalie of the nigh is the best backup available.  Viktor Fasth is looking to collect his third win of the year.  Fasth has fallen down on some hard times, but I think that tonight against Edmonton he'll notch another win in his belt.  

NFL Week 2 Matchups

So, its week 2 of the NFL season so lets look at some of the possible big plays for the fantasy week.

QB
Early in the season quarterbacks usually have the upper hand on the defenses.  There could be some big numbers put up.  If you are willing to pay up, look at Peyton Manning.  Other quarterbacks to consider are Big Ben against the Ravens.  He's had up and down games, but look for a good one. Also consider Philip Rivers because he's always a good pick

RB
Arian Foster is probably the best running back of the past 5 years.  Always look for him to have a good game.  Le'veon Bell is going to have a great season this year so look for him to have a good game.  

WR
There are two receivers that are must picks.  It just so happens they both play for the Broncos.  Emanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas are two huge targets for the best quarterback in the league.  Thomas is always a good pick for touchdown and the Sanders Manning hook up was looking good in the preseason.  

And those are the picks of the week

Week 3 NFL

Week 3 football has the looks of a very successful week.  Here are the plays...

QB
The Falcons are taking on a bad team in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.  Look for Matt Ryan to have a huge week.  He's coming in at a very affordable price too.

RB
The two running backs to look at this week are Le'veon Bell and Demarco Murray.  Murray has proved to be Mr. consistent over the past two weeks.  Look for him to pass the century mark again and score a touchdown.  Bell is playing against the Panthers, enough said.  Pick them both.

WR
I think AJ Green is a good pick this week.  Green and Dalton have some of the best chemistry in the league.  Look for Green to get a ton of targets this week.  Also look for Emanuel Sanders to have a ton of catches this week

Week 4 NFL

Week 4 football is coming up so lets look at some of the picks of week.

QB
At quarterback this week, look at the ever consistent Peyton Manning.  He is tearing up the league right now and will put up the most points this week.

RB
Demarco Murray is looking like the best running back in the league right now.  He is running like Emmitt Smith these days.  I could see some other running backs looking like great picks.  Names like Forte, Lynch, and Morris are mid range guys that could all run for big yards.

WR
At receiver this week look at the Broncos.  It seems like you can't miss on any of these guys.  Thomas and Sanders are always great picks.  In other games, look at Dez Bryant, Jeremy Maclin, and even Antonio Bryant.  These receivers are always good plays, but especially this week.

Week 5 NFL

Week 5 football is looking like a good week to make some money, so lets look at my fantasy predictions.

QB
Again, this week I'd take a look at Peyton.  He is just too good to no pick.  Also, look at Philip Rivers and surprisingly Brian Hoyer.  The Browns are looking good this season so far, even without their star wide receiver Gordon.

RB
At running back this week look at Eddie Lacey to have a good game.  Minnesota has an average defense against the run and Lacey is a ground and pound kind of back.  I could see him scoring a few time this week.

WR
Demaryius Thomas is the pick.  He is sitting at the most expensive receiver on Draftkings this week.  I could see him putting up the biggest number of the week.  Also, look at the usual suspects Dez Bryant and Jeremy Maclin.

Week 6 NFL

This is a tough week for picks because we're gonna have to find some good value picks.  This weeks theme is cheap is better.

QB
Our value pick of the week is Joe Flaco.  He's playing Tampa so he could put up some really good numbers.  Other quarterbacks to look at are Kyle Orton who is starting for the Bills this week and they always seem to be able to beat the Patriots.

RB
A running back to look at this week is Joique Bell.  He comes in at a reasonable price and the Lions have been trying to tie in the run this year.  I could see a trip to the end zone in his future.

WR
There is always one receiver who has a big game who nobody notices.  This week I will try to predict it.  Reilly Cooper is a very solid receiver for the Eagles.  He comes in at a pretty cheap price.  Look for Cooper to have over 5 catches and even a touch down.

Week 7 NFL Fantasy

Week 7 fantasy football, nearly at the halfway point of the season.  Let's look at our picks of the week.

QB
As usual, I advise the pick of Peyton Manning.  He's going to put up numbers.  Peyton is the most expensive for a reason.  Other guys to look at might be Tom Brady against the Jets and Carson Palmer against the Raiders.

RB
Demarco Murray is still killin' it week to week.  He's been very consistent and I expect the same this week.  Jamal Charles will probably have a big week as well.  Look for him to run for 100 yards and grab around 5 passes.

WR
My two picks of the week are Dez Bryant and Randall Cobb.  Dez is one of the best young talents in the league.  He will receive a bunch of targets this week.  Cobb is the deep threat of the Packers offense.  He'll put a big catch for a touchdown this week.  Look for both to shine bright this week.
