2011 Season - Week 23

We are just a month away from Free Agency, but don’t expect Drew Brees to be the biggest Free Agent available. The Saints are working hard to sign him to a new contract but if they can’t they will surely make him an Unrestricted Free Agent. The main action will be with the Wide Receivers where Plaxico Burress, Marques Colston, DeSean Jackson, Vincent Jackson, Brandon Lloyd, Mario Manningham and Reggie Wayne may all be available on the market come mid-March. It Could Have Been So (Slightly) Different The Trading Days were not so important this year as without them there were not significant changes to the tables. Chief would still have won the Premiership, Aaron, David S and H would all still have gone down and Cheryl, Dave G and Daz would have all been promoted. John made the best trades improving his score by 108 points, mainly due to replace Derrick Mason with Jordy Nelson. Daz improved by 86 and Aaron by 80. Mark was the only owner to lose out in trading finishing 26 points down. Without trades the tables would have looked like this:- PREMIERSHIP actual finish CONFERENCE actual finish 1 Chief 621 1 1 Dave G 430 2 2 Johnnie 484 3 2 Daz 414 1 3 Craig 468 2 3 Cheryl 386 3 4 Mark 456 7 --------------------------------- 5 AP 450 4 4 George 315 5 6 Ron 411 5 5 John 242 4 7 Wayne 402 8 8 Marcus 383 6 ---------------------------------- 9 Andy H 366 9 10 David S 318 11 11 Aaron 274 10 BUMS Back 2 Bodeans Bonanza The date is set for our post season Bodeans Blow Out.
