    Featured Article: Draft Day Prep

    By Jeff Paur
    RealTime Fantasy Sports

    There isn't a better time of year than this - the start of fantasy football season. Fantasy drafts are fast approaching, so it is time to get ready.

    When preparing for your draft, there are countless strategies to use. You can draft the best available, take running backs with your first two picks, load up on receivers early, draft a quarterback with your first pick (which isn't quite that strange these days) or use some other gimmick you came up with for the draft. Whatever you do, go with the plan and stick with it.

    But there are some general rules to stand by no matter your strategy. So before you start preparing for your draft, here are some basic things you should keep in mind no matter what strategy you employ. Consider it your checklist for the big day:


    Featured Team: Detroit Lions

    Overall
    Quarterbacks
    Running Backs
    Wide Receivers
    Tight Ends
    Defense
    Kickers
    Key Additions RB Reggie Bush, WR Devin Thomas, PK David Akers, DL Jason Jones, DL C.J. Mosley, CB Domonique Johnson, CB Glover Quin.
    Key Losses PK Jason Hanson, OT Jeff Backus, OT Gosder Cherilus, OG Stephen Peterman, DL Cliff Avril, CB Drayton Florence, CB Jacob Lacey.
    OUTLOOK

    The Lions had an awful season last year, losing a lot of close games and failing to close late in game. But don't overlook this team. They are a talented, young team with big plusses on both sides of the ball. This is a playoff team capable of making a deep run. Things just need to break their way a little more this season. It wouldn't surprise to see the Lions make it back to the playoffs and win double-digit games.
