Hey, you know that whole Brett Favre retiring thing. Turns out it was pretty much a hoax. Even though no one in the media heard it straight from his mouth that he was retiring, the entire world went into a panic and assumed he was retiring because of some alleged text messages. I did update my site when this happened, because I felt I had no other choice. I don’t want people who read my site thinking it was still ok to draft Brett Favre early, with there being a good chance he was retired, or that Sidney Rice was still a top 5 receiver, even though Favre could very well have been retiring. However, now that we have heard it from Favre’s mouth that he will play if healthy, I’ve got to chance everything back. Oh, and if Favre actually does retire, he is officially the biggest douche bag of the year over Tiger Woods and LeBron James. Every time I update my site for Favre it takes about an hour and a half, with my Power Rankings, season predictions NFL Mock Draft, and Fantasy content. So until further notice, everyone regains their fantasy ranking from before the retirement that wasn’t, except for…
QB Brett Favre UP
Before the retirement that wasn’t, I had Brett Favre as my 7th rated quarterback because I think he will produce the 7th most fantasy points for a quarterback this year and I was sure he’d come back. However, though I still think he will produce the 7th most fantasy points for a quarterback if he plays, there is still a slight chance he doesn’t. I have decided I’d rather have Philip Rivers, Donovan McNabb, Jay Cutler, and Joe Flacco before Favre, just because I like to know that I’m getting a sure thing and those 4 guys really aren’t going to be that much worse than Favre this year. So Favre is back up, just not all the way back up.
