The 2009 fantasy football season has been a very interesting one through the first six weeks of the year. We’ve seen many breakout players that no one really expected, and we’ve definitely seen our share of busts as well.

SAN DIEGO (AP)—LaDainian Tomlinson(notes) has been ruled out of the San Diego Chargers’ home opener against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday due to a sprained ankle, just the second time the star running back will miss a start due to injury in his brilliant nine-year career.

If you haven’t already, try to get Sproles.  LT is an over rated has been.  Running backs his size don’t last too long in the big leagues.  If you drafted him like I did in round 1, just keep him in your back pocket for now.

The Eagles are done.  Drop McNabb, keep Westbrook as a secondary RB if you have him and start looking on your wires for another pick if you have the chance.  Better yet, if you got some moron in your league, make the trade if your deadline is still open.  Reid doesn’t give a damn anymore, and McNabb is an over rated has been.  Westbrook is too banged up to be a solid consistent RB anymore.
