It’s that time again, time to pass out my midseason awards. I’ve got some special awards to hand out, including the Barry Sanders Award (aka, I’m so fed up with losing it’s time to retire), the Fall Award (players who thrive during the fall, but wilt during the winter) and the Enron Award (demonstrating poor football etiquette).

All of the juicy soap opera scenarios appear to be coming from one place this season — the NFC East.

It’s time to start my own “can’t trust ‘em” list for fantasy football owners.

In my latest edition of Put Up Your Dukes, I examine buyer’s and seller’s remorse among NFL teams. Championships in the league are won during the offseason, when key pieces are added and subtracted. It’s time to take a look back at the best and worst moves.

Playing quarterback for the Cowboys is probably the most high-profile position in all of sports, which naturally draws a lot of scrutiny. Especially when you throw three interceptions in the opening of your team’s $1 billion stadium.

A number of big-name players failed to meet fantasy expectations in Week 1, but don’t get too worried too soon. It’s still just one week!

Well, maybe “no-win” is a little strong, but Roy Williams is in a real conundrum of a situation. Most teams would give an appendage or two to have two front-line wide receivers.

I think some quarterbacks are coming off the board way too soon in fantasy drafts. Want proof? Check out a recent draft I held with some friend and family from back on the east coast. You won’t believe who went first overall!

Michael Fabiano takes a look at some of the most surprising trends from NFL.com’s fantasy ADP (average draft position) and tells people why his experience in drafts has been somewhat different than what those numbers suggest.

Tony Romo has received a lot of attention since a 44-6 loss to the Eagles officially ended the Cowboys season. But headed into his fourth season, Romo appears to have an improved perspective on life and a stronger hold on what it means to be a leader and a top tier quarterback in the NFL.
“I’m still myself,” Romo said. “There’s not going to be anything that I’m going to change. I don’t think you get to this position, you don’t be successful, being someone you’re not. The only way you can get better and continue to try and achieve your goals is just to keep going forward, keep plugging away. The secret is usually just hard work. You do that and you’ve got a chance.”

Fantasy football drafts are starting to heat up as NFL teams open training camp in preparation for the 2009 season. Michael Fabiano discusses his most recent expert league draft, one that saw him land Adrian Peterson without holding the No. 1 pick.

I set Cowboys fans abuzz when I tweeted that Jerry Jones has probably entertained the idea of bringing Michael Vick to Dallas. What I tried to relay is the fact that Jerry, like many other GMs, always looks at ways to upgrade his roster.

Making adjustments and last-minute decisions are a big part of having a successful fantasy football draft, according to Michael Fabiano.
