Matthew Berry has carved out a nice niche in the sports media world as the top fantasy expert in fantasy football and after spending part of his career as a screenwriter, he has made himself into something big when it comes to ESPN and fantasy sports and he is considered by many to be the expert when it comes to rankings and predictions.

Berry is the ESPN senior director of fantasy sports and while it's amazing that is a job, it's even more amazing how Berry etched out the position for himself. Berry was once a writer and wrote Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles and the show Married... with Children and now he is a fantasy football guru, which started with his website TalentedMrRoto.com and also with a column before that on fantasy sports.

Now his podcast and his advice are essential for fantasy owners and he also gives out plenty of pop culture references as well as sleepers, busts and draft advice overall for all types of leagues. Berry can be funny when he writes and he also has won a number of awards for his writing. This season he has a number of players he likes for PPR, including Wes Welker and Shane Vereen. Many feel that Vereen can be a big fantasy sleeper, while Berry also likes Brandon Myers, Mike Wallace, Alfred Morris and Mark Ingram.
