Where does Donovan McNabb turn next?
What's next for Donovan McNabb? Benched for the remainder of the season, the veteran quarterback finds himself in uncharted territory in his 12-year. The threat had loomed at times in Philadelphia, but it was never handled as awkwardly as the Washington Redskins' coaching staff has chosen to deal with the benching. Tap your mouse here for more »
Sidney Rice, Wes Welker, Tim Tebow and more
It's hard to believe we are approaching Week 10 already. This season has been filled with a lot of drama, and fantasy owners are digging deep trying to make that important playoff push.
I have a lot of fragments on my mind this week, and most of them have fantasy implications. As my brain floats aimlessly about the NFL, all I want is a decadent California burrito, warmer weather and frosty microbrew. Some things will have to wait longer than others, because it's a cold one outside! Tap your mouse here for more »
NFL Draft Grapevine: NFC winners and losers
Now that we've had a few days to digest the offerings of the 2010 NFL Draft, it is time for our annual draft winners and losers piece. In what is always a controversial analysis, everyone has fun grading the draft or tearing apart the next guy's evaluation. Truth be told, it's unfair to grade anything before a few seasons of football have been played, but who has time for that?
This year there were a lot more winners than losers. Most teams did really well, in general, and only seven come in as having below-average drafts in our eyes.
With the teams listed in no particular order, let's get at it! Tap your mouse here for more »

What's next for one of the NFL's all-time greats?
OK, I'll be the first to admit my man-love for LaDainian Tomlinson entering the 2009 fantasy football season bit me in the tail in a lot of leagues. There were many justifiable reasons to like LT as a buy-low draft pick last summer, but he was also a risky choice.
Heading into the 2010 fantasy fray, Tomlinson's future is cloudy, and his dominance is a thing of the past. Regardless of where he ends up, it's no secret that LT's best play is behind him, and his fantasy value is going to be at the lowest of his illustrious career. Tap your mouse here for more »
Time to make a few fantasy football trades!
I view it as fantasy football's version of the Procession of the Equinoxes.
It stems from the common mistake made by fantasy owners when prepping for their drafts: Said player's stats at last season's end do not automatically mean he will be in the same position of success in the upcoming season.
It seems like common sense, no? Tap your mouse here for more »
Early sleepers for Week 9
Check back with us for more Week 9 sleepers in our Weekly Playbook section.
Alex D. Smith, quarterback, San Francisco 49ers: Even after a respectable showing in Week 8, the Tennessee Titans' defense against quarterbacks ranks 31st in the past month. Smith is considerably improved from a few years ago, and he has viable targets to work with. With six teams on the bye, start him as a fill-in. Tap your mouse here for more »
Does anyone truly want Michael Vick?
Suspended quarterback Michael Vick met with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell Wednesday, July 22, but nothing official has come out of their closed-door talks. Reports suggest Vick will be reinstated next week and face a four-game suspension for the upcoming season.
I'm not going into whether that is fair or if he should even be allowed to play in the league. I don't care about that stuff, but I am interested in which teams will take a shot at the maligned signal caller. Tap your mouse here for more »
