By Dalton Del Don 1. Minnesota Vikings Not a big fan of going with the popular and chic pick, but the Vikings are set up to win the North this season. Losing Bryant McKinnie for the first four games won’t help, but it’s still a strong offensive line. The team’s two biggest strengths – running…

By Dalton Del Don 1. Dallas Cowboys Don’t expect another 13-3 season, especially playing in such a tough division, but the Cowboys are still the team to beat in the NFC. Tony Romo is a true superstar, but he needs Terrell Owens to stay healthy and also defy the laws of aging. Without Owens, the…

By Dalton Del Don 1. Arizona Cardinals Arizona would likely finish last in half the divisions in the NFL, but because they are in the NFC West, they have a good shot at the postseason for the first time in a decade. The team really only excels in one area, and that’s the passing game,…

By Dalton Del Don It was too much to make accompanying write ups with these rankings, but here they (finally) are. They are a bit out of the box compared to the general consensus you’ll see elsewhere, and if you want an explanation/reasoning or to ridicule me, as always, feel free to bring that up…

Another edition of Risers & Fallers.

By Dalton Del Don I’m pretty dumbfounded where Thomas Jones has been going in my drafts. Last year’s 1,119 rushing yards don’t look bad as an end result, but that was because he received the fifth most carries in the league, and on a week-to-week basis, he was literally unusable, especially since he’s so uninvolved…

To the RotoScoop faithful, let me first apologize for not cranking out as much material as usual. Been a real busy time of year, featuring me in far too many fantasy football drafts. Anyway, that all changes starting this week, when I’ll start busting out numerous articles, including NFL division previews, more rankings and advice…

Here are the results from a recent industry draft I participated in. It’s the third year I represented RotoWire in this league, and it consists of some pretty good competition. The big difference here is that it’s PPR. My sixth round pick made RotoWorld’s Gregg Rosenthal “shudder,” and I don’t think that was a compliment.

I was thinking of putting together a fantasy football league consisting of RotoScoop readers. If interested in joining, let me know in the comments or e-mail me at seven3d@aol.com

By Dalton Del Don TIER ONE 1. Kellen Winslow – Winslow only caught 55 percent of the passes thrown his way last year, but that’s more to do with all those targets (148) than lack of skill. He’s essentially Cleveland’s No. 2 wideout, and considering the team’s poor defense and Braylon Edwards taking up much…

Here’s a podcast from this week’s segment. Ch. 144, Tuesdays at 11 am Pacific time. Can also be listened to online now, over at XMradio.com.

A new edition of Risers & Fallers.

Here’s this week’s podcast, where Chris and I discuss the recent RotoWire “Steak” league fantasy football draft we were in. As expected, my team is better than his.

Check out the newest version of my risers and fallers.

Drew Brees or Tony Romo?
