Fantasy Football - The Secret Ingredients

Nobody cares about tight ends, kickers, and defenses in fantasy football right? WRONG! They are the secret ingredients that can lead your team to victory on the fantasy gridiron!



Tight Ends: The top 5 or 6 are great, but beyond that there's a huge drop-off. I know we don't want to be "that guy" and pick one too early, but TE's go quickly once that first one is taken, so be ready!





Defense/ST: Pittsburgh we agree is #1, Philly and GB coming in as 2 or 3. Beyond these teams, and even with them, it's best to play the match-up game on a weekly basis to determine your starting defense.  We do like Detroit though!!!



Kickers: Who cares? If you are allowed to skip drafting a kicker, DO IT! Some commissioners may force you to fill your roster, but if not, then use your last pick to select another quality backup. Then make your decision to drop somebody (as an injury probably will come up eventually anyway) a day or two before the season starts to pick up a kicker. You'll cost yourself an average of maybe 1 or 2 points max. Instead, your "Mr. Irrelevant" might end up averaging 15 points a week through the season! Well worth it! Oh, and early in the week when waivers open, Greg says don't be afraid if you don't know who to drop but you have a good looking guy available. Drop your kicker. Make the tough decision of what position player you have to drop on Saturday or Sunday morning.
