And now for a few thoughts, observations and highlights as we wrap up Day 2 of the NFL Scouting Combine.

Hey NFL fan! It’s Ralph Lanier Jr., your NFL Director of Fandemonium here to tell you all about my phenomenal experiences at the 2011 Pro Bowl and also Super Bowl XLV. It’s been a busy and exciting couple of weeks and sadly, these are my final two entries.

When WR Larry Fitzgerald found out that he made his fifth Pro Bowl as a replacement for Super Bowl-bound Packer Greg Jennings, he decided to throw some love out there to Card fans who suffered through the 5-12 season by tweeting that he would take two with him to Aloha Stadium.

New Orleans Saints strong safety Roman Harper has been named to the Pro Bowl to replace Green Bay Packers safety Nick Collins, who will be playing in Super Bowl XLV after the Packers beat the Chicago Bears in the NFC Championship Game.

Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald was impressed with both the Steelers and Packers, and you should be, too. Here are some stats to amaze your friends with at your playoff viewing party on Sunday.

The 2010 fantasy season is over, and what a strange year it was. Here is a quick look back, and some thoughts for the future.

Peyton Manning might have cost fantasy owners a championship by making a smart football move.

Here’s a compliation of notes and states from the crew on the NFL Network research desk and the NFL communication offices.

Pulling in a couple of fantasy thoughts from the Twitterverse.

Did any of you imagine that Cardinals rookie QB John Skelton was going to have an impact in the fantasy playoffs? Or maybe the fairer question would be to ask if any of you had heard of Skelton prior to this week?

Fantasy enthusiasts have nary a kind word for some NFL coaches. Does Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt belong on that list?

Panthers RB Goodson will have sleeper value in Week 10.

Several former NFL greats from Warren Sapp to Michael Irvin were in the audience to watch Kurt Warner compete — an upset in itself considering Warner’s performance last week seemed certain to send him home.

Why does Cardinals QB Max Hall wear one of those wrist bands with all of the plays on it? The only thing that should be written on Hall’s arm should be — THROW IT TO LARRY — in huge block letters. Any play coming through the headset should just be translated to “throw it to Larry Fitzgerald.”

Beanie Wells is seeing more carries in Week 5, but it’s not equaling more fantasy production.
