Hi There. I'm making this thread in order to give advice in a game I consider myself quite accomplished at. Ask any questions here that you have about who to start/who to sit/who to draft/who to trade away or anything else fantasy football related.

My Credentials? Well I have yet to lose a fantasy football league I've been in, a game I've played every year since 2006.

This is pure bullshit. There is no way you've won every single year unless you play with fools. That means your leagues don't count unless you've paid money to get into, end of story.

As far as my credentials, I play in two pay leagues, one of them a keeper league. One league this year for fun (kdice league). The non keeper league is $100 to get into, $10 per loss, $10 per transaction and $5 per player involved in trades. Also to keep from having the same winners the draft is 1-10 three rounds then snake. I've won twice since 2006.

1. chris johnson or adrian peterson

Adrian Peterson. I've been in love with this guy since I drafted him in the 3rd round of his rookie year. Everyone called me crazy but he lit the league up. Honestly you can't go wrong with either of these guys but I see linebackers being more honest when Brett Favre is throwing then when Vince Young is throwing.

2. tony romo or donovan mcnabb

Tony Romo. Romo has so many weapons this year it's ridiculous. Rookie WR Dez Bryant will be stretching out the defense alongside roy williams and miles austin. Also look for plenty of tosses to running back Felix Jones for plenty of yards and TDs. I've never been a huge donovan mcnabb fan, he's never been a truly consistent quaterback and you always have to worry about him getting injured. It's also usually safe to go with the quarterback of the better team. I mean the redskins? I don't see them winning more then 6 games this year. Where I see the Cowboys winning at least 12.

3. aaron rodgers or drew brees

Drew Brees.
Very very tough one. I think Aaron will be great this year, but you can't pick against the quarterback who had the best completion percentage and quarterback rating last year. I'd be thrilled with either of these quarterbacks as my fantasy QB, but I believe DB will have accumlated more fantasy points by years end. Another thing to consider here is home field. Cold weather usually does not suit the passing attack. Drew Brees won't need to worry about this much, whereas winter in Wisconsin could drastically effect Rogers' fantasy numbers.

4. owen daniels or jason witten

Jason Witten. Without a doubt one of the most consistent tight ends in the NFL over the past years, yet another toy jason garett and tony romo can and will use to pick apart opposing defenses.

5. miles austin or desean jackson
Desean Jackson. Yeah Miles Austin had a breakout year last year, but i'm still not completely sold on him. I can't ignore the explosiveness and speed of Desean Jackson. Last year Miles had a great year because opposing defensive coordinators didn't really consider him much of a threat, they were focused on Roy Williams. Now they DO know about him and opposing teams will be placing their number 1 cornerbacks on Miles. Look for this and the introduction of Dez Bryant to hurt Austin's numbers. Desean, on the other hand, will be a favorite target of Kolb. He is the most explosive player on the eagles team, look for them to go to him often.

eh i dont agree on most of that except were you basically said cowboys are awesome but chris johnson is wayyy better than adrian in my opinion i mean vikings have a pretty stacked offense so defense is spread while the titans offense only really has johnson and he puts up those numbers

I thought we were talking fantasy numbers here. The offenses as a whole make a huge difference to how many fantasy points/how well a player will do. Without a doubt the team Adrian has around him makes a huge difference on what kind of numbers he gets. If their offense surges to a 20 point lead at halftime he'll obviously get a lot more carries thus leading to more yards and higher fantasy numbers. Sure if you put Chris Johnson in a vikings uniform to replace AP for a game he could probably do as good or maybe even better then AP. Offenses/Strength of team in general makes a huge difference on fantasy numbers. As for your claim that I'm saying the cowboys are awesome, look who you put the cowboys players against... MCNABB? REDSKINS? They are absolutely terrible. Texans arn't too great either.
