Version 2.1

Ladies and gentlemen, with football season fast approaching and the forums filling up with new members it is time for the reemergence of The WESTern Perspective.

For those of you who didn’t catch any of my articles last season (feel free to search the archives for them) The WESTern Perspective is not your ordinary run of the mill fantasy article, in fact, what I bring you here no one else is attempting to do. I do not list a large group of...

Buffalo Bills RB Marshawn Lynch, the right man for the job. Many were shocked when Bills RB Willis McGahee was shipped to the Ravens and Lynch was drafted. McGahee had done a good job the move was considered superfluous, unnecessary. Lynch has had a great rookie year and most concerns were dropped.

3. Altanta- Darin McFadden - RB
With the aging Dunn (who number were under 1000 total yards for first time in his career) and with Norwood still not proving...

I was just reading more speculation in the St. Petersburg times that RB Caddilac Williams may not be able to contribute to the Bucs Running Game next season. This has been coming up on and off all season long due to the severe nature of Caddies torn patellar tendon injury. Of course, we have a long off season of Caddies rehab, which has already started. This rehab may yet reveal more or less optimism as it goes on, only time will tell. But, I would think from what I have heard that Caddy is likely...
