Finally revealed -- my sleeper for the season...

[Warpigs]

Here is my fantasy column for 9/10/06. It was written earlier this week and in print by midnight last night (Saturday) for Sunday's paper. I finally reveal my true sleeper for the year, and while he didn't do anything today, I still feel he will be HUGE this season. Any comments??

interesting pick in your sleeper pick. He's definitely got the athleticism, just getting a shot is what's holding him back.

Great read, as always, nonetheless. Nice Work WP!

I noticed Robinsons eligability too. The first time Gore limps I will be adding him. Don't know that I can use a roster spot on him.....but with Gore's injury history.......


Your guru status went down the drain with the Plummer pick. He blew in ten different shades today. Good call on the Iggles studs lighting up the Texans. Nice read again Warpigs

I did notice that the Niners had Robinson come in on a few crucial 3rd down plays while Gore caught a break - actually I was shocked to see him in on 3rd down and a run play was called. I know the Niners have Hicks too as a back up. I would be interesting to see him back there. Liked him at Penn State.

i think Gore is a pretty legit starter but if he gets hurt i think Robinson might get the nod over Hicks

TODAY'S STUDS: There are a number of interesting matchups today that seasoned fantasy owners should be willing to exploit.

For instance, the Eagles take on Houston, which should mean big games for most of Philly's offensive starters — especially Brian Westbrook and Donovan McNabb.

Wow! I never would have thought of that!

I was going to add more sarcasm into it, but decided not to. I would just like to point out that all of your "golden ticket" picks pretty much busted

Jake Plummer - 138 yards, 3 INT, no scores
Thomas Jones - 59 total yards, no score
Roy Williams - 36 total yards, no score
Ben Watson - 50 total yards, no score (not terrible for a TE)

Sweet picks

Not only did they bust but Gore had a huge day. Good job on the picks man!

I didn't know you could foresee the future

They weren't bad predictions on Saturday so don't come off like a cocky Monday morning QB

The dual eligibility is nice but I don't think that many people will be using up a roster spot on the 49ers 3rd string rb. Considering that it has been a long time since even the starter was worth owning on the 49ers, the 3rd guy should not be on your radar yet.

I know that Gore is gimpy but you did not mention Maurice Hicks who averaged more than 5 yds/carry last year behind one of the worst offensive lines that you can imagine. Hicks has upside and if Gore goes down then the 49ers will surely bring somebody else in to back up Hicks. IMO Robinson is no better than a 3rd down back this year.

Robinson isn't going to do jack squat for your fantasy team.
