NFL Players OF Week 1
September 8, 2008
Total Pro Sports NFL Players OF Week 1
Here are the players who put up the biggest numbers during the first week of the National Football League. Make notes of these players as we for see them bringing your fantasy football team huge numbers later on in the year.
Best Offensive Player- Michael Turner, RB, Atlanta Falcons,
Long considered the best back-up in league when he played in San Diego behind Ladanian Tomlinson, in week 1 Turner introduced himself to the rest of the league in a big way. The thick legged and speedy Turner burned through the Lions D on his way to a 220 yard 2td performance on just a measly 22 carries.
Honorable mention:Donovan McNabb, QB, Philadelphia Eagles.
Best Offensive Rookie- Matt Forte, RB, Chicago Bears,
Playing under the bright lights of Sunday night football this rookie out of Tulane seemed unfazed by the millions of people watching or the Indianapolis Colts defense. Forte had himself a great day with 23 carries for 123 yards and 1 td in one of the biggest upsets of week 1. The Bears seem to have finally found the player they have been looking for since the they let go of Thomas Jones for nothing before last season.
Honorable mention: Chris Johnson, RB, Tennessee Titans.
Best Defensive Player- Ellis Hobbs, DB, New England Patriots,
When Tom Brady went down early in week 1 against the Patriots most people knew that the Pats D would have to step up big if they were to win the game. Well, the D never really played all that well as the game went down to the final play the KC could not convert. The best player on the defensive side of the ball for the Pats was undoubtedly Ellis Hobbs, who stuffed the stat sheet with three tackles 1interception, 1sack, and 1 forced fumble.
Honorable mention: John Abraham, DE, Atlanta Falcons.
Best Defensive Rookie- Kendall Langford, DE, Miami Dolphins,
After a slow week by all the more heralded rookies who were selected well ahead of him in the years draft, Lanford had a solid game for the Fins in a losing effort. This guy was sack machine at Hampton and wasn’t even the first defensive end selected by the Dolphins as they took Philip Merling in the second round and Langford in the third. He recorded 3 tackles and one sack on what was a very slow day for the leagues rookie. Langford could be a solid addition for your team if you play in an IDP league.
Honorable mention: Derrick Harvey, DE, Jacksonville Jaguars.

Top 5 Fantasy Cornerbacks
August 10, 2008
The players who save touchdowns from being scored, can be a big help to your team. If you manage to land any of these guys on your team you will be rewarded with some huge points. Here are the Top 5 Fantasy Cornerbacks.
1. Nate Clements
Since sighing one of the biggest contracts in NFL history for a defensive player, Clements has delivered for the 49ers. Playing in San Francisco on a team with a sluggish offense means Clements should get ample opportunity to put up a lot of points this year. For a cornerback he gets a lot of tackles and throw in a handful of picks and forced fumbles and you have a great fantasy player.
2. Marcus Trufant
This former first rounder has hit his stride and is developing into one of the leagues best corners. Trufant plays on an underrated Seattle defense and should produce some big turnover numbers, which will make him a solid option to have on your team. Not to mention that the NFC West has some very weak QBs that he will be feasting on.
3. Leigh Bodden
Bodden finds himself in a new situation this year as he is now a member of the Detroit Lions in a trade that sent DT Shaun Rogers to the Browns. I believe that the Lions won this trade because Bodden has way more value than Rogers. Playing in the very weak NFC North means that Bodden will have another great fantasy season.
4. DeAngelo Hall
Much like Bodden, Hall also finds himself on a new team, the Oakland Raiders. Hall will look to bring some veteran leadership to what is a very young and talented defense in Oakland. This new situation, on a marginally better team will allow Hall to make the kind of plays that he has been known for, which will be very good for your Fantasy team.
5. Darrelle Revis
Revis broke out last season showing the rest of the league that he deserved to be one of the first corners selected in last years draft. Revis will also benefit from the improvements made on the defensive side of the ball. He should post another great season and easily be a Top 5 Fantasy Cornerback.
Honorable mention: Terrence McGee, Courtland Finnegan, Ike Taylor.

Top 5 Fantasy Safeties
August 10, 2008
Safeties can make a huge difference on the field, and they can also make a huge difference for your fantasy team. Here are the Top 5 Fantasy Safeties.
1. Kerry Rhodes
Last season Rhodes became one of the best safeties in the league, worthy of a place on any fantasy team. He is a hard hitter with a nose for the ball and as the potential to be a difference maker on an improving Jets defense. The acquisition of Calvin Pace and the drafting of Vernon Gholston means that their pass rush will be much improved, which will translate into more picks for Rhodes.
2. Sammy Knight
Knight is now a member of the defending Superbowl champs after spending a season in Jacksonville. Knight will bring added toughness to one of the leagues best defensive units. The departure of Gibril Wilson to the Raiders leaves the door open for Knight to put up some big stats.
3. Oshiomogho Atogwe
One of the most underrated players in the entire league, Atogwe has been a turnover machine for the Rams. The fact he flies under the radar and has a name that is difficult to pronounce means that he might be available in the later rounds of the draft. He gets extra credit for being the best Canadian defensive player in the NFL.
4. Bob Sanders
The heart and soul of the Indianapolis Colts team is coming off a great season where he was named the Defensive Player of the year. Sanders has shown the impact he can on the field with his big hits and timely interceptions, however staying healthy has been a concern for a player who plays with suck reckless abandon. Injury concerns aside, Sanders is poised to have another stellar year.
5. Adrian Wilson
Wilson is the prototypical modern NFL Safety, he has the size speed and strength that make defensive coordinators drool and offensive coordinators lose sleep at night. He has put up some huge numbers in the past and looks to rebound from a year in which he was plagued by injuries and show the league why he is one of the Top 5 Fantasy Safeties.
Honorable Mention: Sean Jones, Gibril Wilson, Atari Bigby.

Top 5 Overrated Fantasy Safeties
August 10, 2008
A solid player at the safety position can mean huge points for your fantasy league. These are the guys with the name recognition who won’t produce on a consistant basis. Here are the Top 5 Overrated NFL Safeties.
1. Brian Dawkins
Once considered one of the best safeties in the entire league, it seems as if time and injuries are finally taking their toll on this former all-pro. Philly, with the addition of Asante Samuel has one of the best secondaries in the league so they should be able to protect Dawkins from being exposed on passing downs. Stay away from drafting him as your starter because he not the player he used to be.
2. John Lynch
Much like Dawkins, Lynch has been one of the very best safeties in the league for a very long time, not anymore. As of today Lynch is a free agent, left to find work with another team since asking for his release from the Broncos. Lynch asked to be released because he was not happy about the possibility of spending significant time on the bench for the upcoming season. Stay away from drafting him until he lands with a team, and if he does proceed with caution.
3. Dexter Jackson
The former Superbowl MVP really hasn’t done much in the last couple of years. He currently plays on the Cincinnati Bengal’s who have one the leagues worst defenses. It seems like the big performance in the Superbowl a couple of years back helped him get notoriety and some big contracts, its too bad that it was his last good game.
4. Roy Williams
This former first round pick has had an up and down career since he was drafted out of Oklahoma. He is a big hitter and due to his “hitting” techniques there is now a new rule in the NFL, the horse collar tackle. Williams is a liability in the passing game and would be better suited as a linebacker. It should be noted that of all the guys on this list he will have the best statistical season by far.
5. Adam Archuleta
Archuleta had a couple of good seasons early in his career playing for the Rams. Since then he has been nothing but injury prone. My advice would be to stay far away from this guy because he is an Overrated Fantasy Safety.
Honorable mention: Will Demps, Chris Hope, Greg Wesley.
