Class of 2021 – Inaugural Class
1.) Forgetting Brandon Marshall — “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” was a 2008 film that starred Jason Segel, Kristen Bell, Mila Kunis, Russell Brand, Paul Rudd, and Jonah Hill. Brandon Marshall played for six different NFL teams, including the Denver Broncos, New York Jets, and Chicago Bears. For some reason, the combo of the film’s name with the well-traveled receiver just worked.
2.) Flacco Seagulls — Joe Flacco inspired the Baltimore Ravens to its first Super Bowl win. His surname also inspired many fantasy football team names, with “Flacco Seagulls” being the best.
3.) Backfields and McCoy — LeSean “Shady” McCoy was the featured RB in Buffalo’s backfield. The play-on-words were too enticing to pass on for many a fantasy football team owner.
4.) Somewhere over Dwayne Bowe — Chief’s receiver Dwayne Bowe’s name lends itself well to this fantasy name.
5.) The Ertz Locker — What do you get when you cross Eagles tight end Zach Ertz with the Oscar-winning movie, The Hurt Locker? Answer: The Ertz Locker.
6.) DeMarco Polo

9.) Favre Dollar Foot Long — Subway’s “Five Dollar Foot Long” commercial had a huge TV presence back in 2009, and Brett Favre was a huge presence in the NFL. It was a match made in fantasy football heaven.
Classics
10.) Mr. Rodger’s Neighborhood—Mr. Rogers had his own TV show. He also appeared as a guest on Jeopardy and frequently appeared on televised professional football games.
11.) Foster’s Austrarian for Beer — Foster’s famous slogan was a great match for Arian Foster’s name. And Arian Foster, for a window of time, was a fantasy football beast!
12.) Luck Dynasty — The popular TV show Duck Dynasty paired nicely with Andrew Luck.
13.) Breesus, King of the Drews — From Breesy Like Sunday Morning to Easy Breesy and Grilled Brees, there is no shortage of Drew Brees fantasy names. But, Breesus, King of the Drews, got the knock on the door and entered the Hall of Fame.
14.) Brady and Edelman — One of the most famous QB-to-receiver connections in the NFL of all time – Tom Brady and Julian Edelman – is also the basis for this fantasy football name. What’s not to love?
15.) It’s Always Runny in Philadelphia — It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is a classic TV show. This is a classic name. It was a unanimous selection to enter the Hall.
