Regardless, Ward will be our Flex player in Week 2 against the Pack. And if you grabbed him off waivers or drafted him, you should consider starting him, too, even with . You think Coughlin’s going to let the Hefty Lefty Lorenzen pass 45 times? It’ll be all Ward (and some Droughns), all day. I just got back from the draft, which I wrote about . It had everything: A couple thousand fantasy nuts drafting in a giant ballroom. Celebrity V.I.P.’s Ottis Anderson, Roy Green, Lynn Dickey and Seth Joyner, who actually drafted real teams in real leagues. (Joyner, from what I heard, talked some serious smack the whole time…as if someone’s going to stop him.) Gorgeous “hostesses” in skimpy referee outfits working the big sticker boards for each league. And a postdraft bash at the ESPN Zone. I’ll leave out the part where my comanager, Big Dog, and I ended up marooned in some old Vegas casinothattimeforgot, playing blackjack with a toothless drifter/serial killer around 4:30 a.m. The good news? Our final team included weekly uberstuds LaDainian Tomlinson and Tom Brady; solid WRs Roy Williams, Larry Fitzgerald and Laveranues Coles (important in a PPR league where you can start up to 4 WRs per week); and some upside players like Ladell Betts, Wes Welker and James Jones, who I’m still high on despite a quiet first week. No, I’m not going to say “baby!” after Vegas. I think there should be a federal law, punishable by having to watch Billy Crystal and Gheorghe Muresan in for anyone who still insists on saying I heard more than enough drunk dudes — always wearing striped button down shirts untucked from their jeans and marinated in Axe body spray — yelling it for 48 hours straight, typically followed by a barbwire biceptattooed highfive. Worse, I don’t know who to blame for this: or whoever first had the bright idea to combine Red Bull and vodka. Ward, who ran hard (13 for 89) and was involved in the passing game (4 catches for 27 and a TD),Cheap Johnny Knox Jersey, might be this year’s Maurice JonesDrew or Marques Colston, one of those level nonames who comes out of nowhere to lead his owner to a league title. Series after series after series, those two just killed us. I felt like I was trapped against the ropes, pathetically hunched over and covering up as mercilessly pummeled me about the head, gut and tender male nether regions. By the time I was able to look up, wipe the blood and tears out of my eyes and check our score, we were down several thousand points (or so it seemed). But we have a secret weapon for Week 2 — we’re going to have a and steal his lineup decisionmaking signals. How’d your first week go? Chime in below. And look out for my Week 2 Gems and Gimps, coming on Friday. is the author of Committed: Confessions of a Fantasy Football Junkie and Just Kick It: Tales of an Underdog, OverAge, OutofPlace SemiPro Football Player. There was bad news from Vegas,Cheap Oilers Jerseys, too. We’re 01. (Thanks for nothing Roy, Fitz and Fred Taylor!). Despite heading into Sunday night up 40 points, we ran up against a Week 1 fantasy buzz saw I simply call “PlaxiRomo.” Even better news? We snagged a certain 20th round, last player selected in the entire draft, Mr. Irrelevant: Giants running back, . Then again, he could be this year’s Frisman Jackson. Remember Frisman? He had 8 catches for 128 yards and a TD in Week 1 of 2005, causing fantasy owners to blow their waiver dollars in the hopes of finding the next Anquan Boldin,Kellen Winslow charger Jersey, only to find out that he was the next…Frisman Jackson. And therein lies the maddening yinyang, givetake of fantasy football. We make a savvyashell draft move like taking Ward in the 20th while most took Reuben Droughns several rounds earlier and are instantly “rewarded” with an injury to Jacobs (even though I don’t actively wish injury on any N.F.L. player and therefore pass on my condolences to Jacobs owners). Yet in the very same game, the fantasy gods jerk their evil marionette strings to ensure that we’re buried alive by the likes of Tony Romo and Plaxico Burress. Truth be told, I’d trade Ward’s upside right now for a Week 1 win.
