Gridiron Experts giving us an article worthy of their name on Tampa Bay RB Bobby Rainey


FANTASY VALUE: BOBBY RAINEY

BY: Jody Smith

11/18/13

RATING: 4 – 4.5 / 5

KEEP it.

Jody is informative as can be on Rainey as he tries to get you excited at the prospect of picking him up for the playoff push.  What’s also nice is that he’s pragmatic about your chances of snagging him, as he’s like the hot chick someone brought back from college to a townie party — everyone will be gunning for him.

So read up on Rainey, but unless you have a high waiver spot or a bunch of Tacos in your league, chances are he won’t be yours.

The Rotoprofessor teaches us where the TB targets will go


Buy ‘Em or Deny ‘Em: Why Tim Wright, Not Tiquan Underwood, Is The Player To Grab In TB

by Eric Stashin (aka The Rotoprofessor) – Rating: 3/5 KEEP IT

The Rotoprofessor schools us on the TB receiving situation now that Mike Williams is out of the picture.  Eric suggests that if we are planning on stashin (see what I did there?) a player from TB in deeper leagues then TE Tim Wright is your man and not Underwood.  Stashin does a great job of laying out why Underwood is not the guy but fails to really address why Wright is the guy other than by virtue of not being Underwood.  Also, I would have liked to have seen Stashin make the Schiano / Underwood Rutgers connection but that’s just because of a personal bias I have.  It’s a good article to read if you are looking to go deeper into the TB situation.
