In the wake of their most recent pedestrian loss, I’ve decided to pose a question that nobody north of the Florida-Georgia border seems to be asking: is Byron Leftwich good?
Leftwich came out of Marshall in 2003, a 1st round (7th overall) pick of the Jags. He’s huge at 6′5, 245, and he’s got either [...]

Byron Leftwich Scouting Report: Is Byron Leftwich Good?
Samkon Gado Scouting Report
Let’s try to reach a concensus on the Packers’ new “star” RB: is he good, or is he…Samkon Gado?
Gado’s the latest in a line of late season NFL backups and 4th string RBs who come in for awful teams and manage to put up yards. Off the top of my head, I can name [...]
NFL’s Best Defensive Player 2K5: Troy Polamalu
Troy Polamalu Scouting Report
54 solo tackles, 3 sacks, 2 interceptions, and 5 passes defensed. Doesn’t seem like such a great stat-sheet, but that’s Troy Polamalu’s season. The 5′10″ 212 Polynesian pummler out of USC has already made a name for himself as the NFL’s best safety. Ed Reed is good. Ed Reed is damn [...]
Kurt Warner Scouting Report: He’s What?
Yes, you heard it (or read it, or saw it, or disbelieved) here: Kurt Warner is…good. It took a while, and there were a few pungi stick death-traps along the road, but the 34 year-old QB from Northern Iowa is once again worth your fantasy consideration as an option post-2005.
Over the past 4 weeks [...]
David Garrard Scouting Report
The Jaguars have been waiting for this broken ankle for the past 3 years. Ever since picking up David Garrard in the 4th round of the ‘02 draft, Jags brass have been telling the world how good this guy really is. 2002 was a lean draft year for QBs, with only David Carr and Joey [...]

Reggie Faulk…I Mean Reggie Bush Scouting Report
Twenty-three carries for 294 yards! Twenty-three carries for 294 yards! That was Reggie Bush’s Saturday night. While most of us east coasters were watching the cool side of the pillow, Reggie was racking up 362 total yards and 2 TDs. Fresno State looked good. They looked very good. But they still couldn’t stop Reggie.
At 6′0″ [...]
Mewelde Moore Scouting Report: What About Mewelde?
Just when it looked like Michael Bennett had reclaimed the Vike’s starting gig at RB he comes up with a 19 rush/16 yard Meadowlands flop. Bennett had gone off for 106 yards on 18 carries in Week 9. But that was at home, indoors, and, most importantly, against Detroit.
Bennett has starter’s speed, but he lacks [...]
Jamal Lewis Scouting Report: Is Jamal Lewis Finished?
Jamal Lewis is only 26 years old. It shouldn’t be unravelling so quickly for the former 1st round (5th overall) pick. But times are tough in Baltimore, and offense is about as hard to find as an Anthony Wright higlight. What is going on with Jamal Lewis?
In 2003 Lewis rushed for 2,066 yards, posting a [...]
Reggie Williams Scouting Report
Top 10 receivers are almost impossible to lay your hands on at this point in the season. With so many big name running backs having off years you’re probably going to get the short-end of the deal in a RB-WR trade. So we may as well look for mediocre options on the FA wire or [...]

Ben Troupe Scouting Report: The Next Tony Gonzalez
Tight end used to be the toughest position in Fantasy Football to fill. With the emergence of Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates, Alge Crumpler, Jeremy Shockey and other pass catchers that’s not really the case anymore. Big guys with soft hands are taking the field every Sunday for almost every team in the league. And TEs [...]

Kevin Curtis: Your New Brandon Stokley
Kevin Curtis is 5′10″. He weighs 186 pounds. He’s 27. He’s a devout Mormon. And he’s the Rams’ new Ricky Proehl.
Kevin’s caught 28 passes this year for 362 yards. That’s an 12.9 yard average. It also projects to a 1000 yard season.
Tory Holt is the Rams downfield threat, and Isaac Bruce is going [...]
Charles Rogers Scouting Report
Let me get this out of the way early so I don’t confuse anyone: Joey Harrington is not a good quarterback. But is he as bad as last year’s 6-10 record? Yes.
Joey’s just never adjusted to the speed of the NFL game. His arm isn’t big enough, or accurate enough, to make the tough throws, [...]
Antwaan Randle El Scouting Report
Antwaan Randle El kicked off the 2005/2006 NFL season with a couple of catches, a TD, and 89 total yards. Some people are going to tell you he’s a solid #3 or #4 option at W/R. He’s more than that.
Last year Randle El caught 43 passes for 601 yards. That’s a 14 yard average. Just [...]
