In 2006, the BU41 Fantasy Football League began its operations with four teams: Minnesota Huskies, Jamaican Jerks, Chocolate

Moose, and Thunder Cats. Under the original format, each team was allowed one QB, two RBs, TEs, and WRs, one D, and

one K. Several rule-changes and a series of aggressive expansions later, the BFL now exits as a two-conference league with eight members. 2015 will be the league’s 10th season and

we look forward to many more years to come!

The 2015 edition of the Eccentric Falcons opened up this year’s draft by selecting the most consistent top-tier QB in the

league. Former league MVP Aaron Rodgers put up big numbers in 2015 (24.1 PPG) and always plays well come playoff season. The Falcons are looking for a repeat appearance in the

BFL Championship, and hope that an upgraded QB position will punch their ticket to the big game. The Packer’s loaded offense and relatively easy schedule leaves the signal-caller

primed and ready for another MVP caliber season.

ADRIAN PETERSON, RB

#6 OVERALL

Peterson’s year long suspension has ended and the Herd are hoping he has a return to his

2013 form.

HIGHLIGHTS

High-risk selections at RB could pay off big or spell their doom. Flyers on Daniels and Agholor were eye-raisers, but kept with

the theme of potential.

LeVEON BELL, RB

#2 OVERALL

Bell’s two-game suspension did not prevent the Huskies from

taking him as the top overall RB.

HIGHLIGHTS

High-quality starters at QB, RB1, WR1, WR2, and TE leave the

Huskies in prime position. RB depth will be a concern all year.

MATT FORTE, RB

#8 OVERALL

Forte’s consistent play was a big draw for the Penguins at the

end of the 1st round.

HIGHLIGHTS

Potential abounds, yet many high-risk draftees on the roster. Spiller should have a career year, but TE and bench play will prove

troublesome without some additions.

A. BROWN, WR

#7 OVERALL

Brown looks to to post another strong campaign in 2015. With the top RBs gone, the ‘Backs

sensibly opted for the top WR.

HIGHLIGHTS

One of the best all-around rosters; 5 players ranked in the top-4 a their position in 2014. Mediocre RB play may be their

only shortcoming.

#5 OVERALL

The Purple Pride are banking on another MVP season from the

signal-caller, and just might get it.

HIGHLIGHTS

Strong and consistent starters across the board. Two top-10

RBs, top QB Luck, and solid WR starters leave the Moose

looking good heading into 2015.

A. RODGERS, QB

#1 OVERALL

The Falcons are hoping the stud QB will lead them to another Championship appearance in

2015.

HIGHLIGHTS

Strong WR, TE, and QB play will be a big boost for the Falcons. Big risks at RB with the young Anderson and Hyde having the

potential to be stars in the making.

M. LYNCH, RB

#4 OVERALL

Despite his high work-load, the Knights are banking on at least one more big year out of the

Beast.

HIGHLIGHTS

Solid starters across the board when healthy. Depth at RB will

be a strength, with a short bench being the only obvious

weakness.

E. LACY, RB

#3 OVERALL

The Gents were happy to scoop-up Lacy at #3. Should

have another prime year for the Pack.

HIGHLIGHTS

Possibly the deepest roster for the Gents, with great starters at

QB, RB, WR, TE, and D.Bench players at WR and RB

may present as their only weakness.

APPLE CLASSIC - GAME 1The Huskies and the Leatherbacks open up the season with the first

installment of the Apple Classic. The Huskies won the Classic 2-1 last year and look to start the season on the right foot.

MIDWEST SLUGFEST - GAME 1 After three close matches in the slugfest last year, the Herd look to retain the Golden Boot as well as the Olson Memorial Trophy.

The season is sure to start with a bang for these two rivals.

BATTLE FOR BOR - GAME 1 Being the only Original-Four rivals, the Knights and Moose have a

long history of heated contests. After a 2-1 season split, the Moose look to keep Bor in their trophy case.

QUEEN’S CUP - GAME 1 The Falcons dominated the 2014 edition of the Queen’s Cup, winning all three games against the Gents on their way to the

league title game. Will the Falcons retain the Cup in 2015?

Fantasy Cast

Stars of the Week

Unavailables

LeVEON BELL, RB

Bell’s suspension was reduced to only two

games, but that still leaves him unavailable for your

lineup in Week 1.

TOM BRADY, QB

Brady is still under league suspension and will likely serve the full sentence of four games to start the

season.

ARIAN FOSTER, RB

The Texans RB tore his groin muscle and was

placed on IR. He’ll be out for at least the first 8 games of the season.

EDDIE LACY, RB

The Packer’s bulldozer should roll right into 2015 facing a suspect Chicago

defense. Look for the Pack attack to ground their way to a big game.

ANDRIAN PETERSON, RB

Whether due to a drive for vengeance or the fact that he's facing a San Fran defense that was decimated over the off-season, Peterson looks to start the year off big.

Page 17: BFL Weekly 2015 Wk. 1

BFL Weekly �17

DARREN McFADDEN, RB

McFadden is likely to miss most of the preseason

with hamstring issues and is unlikely to garner many, if any, touches in Week 1.

DENNIS PITTA, TE

The Ravens TE is likely to miss the first 6 games of the seasons with lingering

issues following hip surgery this offseason.

STEVAN RIDLEY, RB

The now Jets RB is still feeling the effects of off-

season MCL/ACL surgery and is likely to start the season riding the bench.

one up / one down

RYAN TANNEHILL, QB

The Dolphins QB is looking to crack the starter’s list in 2015 after finishing 9th in 2014. He should get plenty of help from

his new assortment of weapons.

DREW BREES, QB

2015 is starting to look like the decline for the long-time fantasy star. Brees lost most of his top targets and had his offensive line

decimated by free agency.
