Titans find a new starting TE: Alge Crumpler

March 3rd, 2008 · No Comments

Alge Crumpler (TE) joins the Titans. Prior to 2007, he was a great fantasy football performer for three straight years (774, 877, 780 receiving yards). Last season’s performance doesn’t count. Crumpler battled a nagging knee injury, and the entire Atlanta offense (except Roddy White) was a disaster. I personally [...]

On defense, they added some beef on the D-Line with Shaun Rogers (DT) and Corey Williams (DE). Ranked 30th in total defense last year, adding these big guys up front guarantee an [...]

Bernard Berrian (WR) becomes a Viking

March 2nd, 2008 · No Comments

The Vikings added a stud WR in Bernard Berrian. This is a match made in heaven for Tarvaris Jackson. Jackson has an arm, and threw an accurate long bomb quite a few times the past two seasons to Williamson. Williamson could never catch the friggin’ ball! Defenders are going to [...]

Dolphins sign a ton of players including Josh McCown (QB) and Ernest Wilford (WR)

March 2nd, 2008 · No Comments

The first interesting QB acquisition during this free agency frenzy was with the Dolphins grabbing Josh McCown. They also signed a target for McCown in Ernest Wilford (WR). I never expected to hear “Dolphins go up 6 with a TD pass from McCown to Wilford.” McCown can throw the ball deep, [...]
