Find out more about Dave: San Francisco native Dave Del Grande, aka Mr. Fantasy, was the first to author a weekly fantasy-sports column in a daily newspaper back in 1990 for The Oakland Tribune. His Web site, www.mrfantasy.com, has provided free ratings and analysis for more than a decade. |
The Chargers are so loaded offensively, the focus of camp has been on a backup -- the guy who will be first in line should LaDainian Tomlinson get hurt.
Michael Turner filled that fantasy-friendly position last year, but he's now gotten himself a nice contract in Atlanta.
So it'll be either returnee Darren Sproles or rookie Jacob Hester this time around.
Many presume Hester was drafted because Sproles is too small to carry such a load, but think about it: Who would you turn to with a Super Bowl berth on the line -- a veteran or a rookie?
Quietly, Sproles is winning the race. And with it comes a spot on fantasy rosters.
Mr. Fantasy's sleeper rating (1-to-10, 10 being highest): 4.
