I am a simple Wisconsin man: I love beer and sports. I decided to create FlurrySports because I was sick of the politics and non-stories that the fat cat corporations put out. When you see football articles from me, just know that I combine my knowledge from playing, coaching, athletic training, and sports management/economic courses to give you a unique, but I feel well-rounded point of view. I am always down to talk about anything, so follow me on Twitter @FantasyFlurry if you decide you want more of me!

*Rankings updated 9/17* Week one can be summed up with injuries, early draft picks underperforming, and overall poor quarterback play. Seriously, it was bad. Two of the top three scoring quarterbacks are generally known as “game managers,” Alex Smith and Sam Bradford. The rest of the top-five included Stafford, Siemian, and Wentz. Aaron Rodgers finished as QB13, Tom Brady as QB19, and Drew Brees as QB16. If there was a perfect argument for my strategy that I preach every preseason of drafting quarterbacks late, this week was it. Of course, this was only week one. Generally early in the season,…

We made it through the first week of the NFL season! Hopefully you got a win and escaped without injuries to your roster. Unfortunately, not everyone was this lucky, myself included. The first few weeks on waivers can win or lose you the season, so get your picks in quickly!

Add QB Tyrod Taylor, BUF (16.5%) Tyrod is a player that I suggested to pick up last week, and he makes the list yet again. I suggest you read…

“Are you crazy? Did you eat paint chips as a kid? The season hasn’t even started yet!” A little bit, none of your business, and exactly. Sure, you just drafted what seems to be the fantasy equivalent of the 1992 Dream Team, but don’t be blinded by your confidence. You must always be alert of potential roster moves if you want to bring home the championship this year. While these roster moves I’m about to propose are not vital, you should still consider them. For the players I think you should “add,” I will provide the ownership percentage across ESPN…

We did it! We fought through another football offseason and suffered through an injury-packed preseason. But now, we’re finally here: NFL week one! This week can set the tone for the rest of the season for professional and fantasy teams alike. From a fantasy point of view, much of the fantasy football rankings and opinions are a result of seasons past. There’s only so much to gain from watching preseason football, so do not be surprised to see unknown players scoring in the top-10 or preseason favorites flopping. In an attempt to avoid some of the surprise, you ventured here…

A good quarterback is hard to come by in the NFL. Packers fans laugh at this notion since they have enjoyed Favre or Rodgers under center for almost three decades. For Browns fans, this may be a more sensitive subject. I thought it would be interesting to take a look at all 32 starting quarterbacks in the NFL and see where exactly they were drafted. It makes sense that most of these players were drafted early, but the best stories come from those undrafted players who have fought for every ounce of success from day one. Click here to see…
