Preseason games are over and it’s time to get our drafts completed and ready for the NFL season that starts in just a few short days. It sure feels like forever since the last shreds of confetti hit the field as the Philadelphia Eagles hoisted the Lombardi Trophy -- and before that, Ja’Marr Chase running […]

The late rounds of best ball may seem like throwaway rounds, but you can scoop up some major value if you look hard enough. Players with excellent traits and situations reside here every season, and picking up a little bit of value with each selection bolsters your fantasy football team that much more. With best […]

Target hogs; we want them, especially in PPR formats. It should be a no-brainer that the best target-earning players are the ones who tend to score the most fantasy points each season. Part of the skill of a pass-catcher is to get on the field, then to run a route, get separation, and then finally, […]

League winners. We all want them, and finding them in drafts is like unlocking treasure, but it's yours and all yours. The key is to use the league-winning player in combination with other players to build your superteam that steamrolls your competition. Easier said than done, but the goal today is to give you my […]

You want to nail your early-round picks in fantasy football drafts. That’s a given. Those picks are the backbone of your squad and where most of your team’s scoring will come from in a given week. Not hitting on those picks puts you squarely behind the eight ball when it comes to scoring fantasy points […]

While we talk about how important running backs are, how vital it is to have multiple elite wide receivers, and how increasingly necessary it is to pinpoint top-end tight end production in fantasy, the quarterback has become a bit of an afterthought. It’s hard to say that when we’ve gotten so much bankable production at […]

For fantasy football, many scoring formats exist, like standard, which was the preferred scoring system from fantasy football’s inception. Then, half-PPR and full-PPR took over as the most popular formats, and that continues today. With many different archetypes of wide receivers in the NFL, some lend themselves to being better values in full-PPR leagues rather […]

Part of putting together a winning best ball roster is avoiding the landmines in fantasy football in every round. While you may be able to get away with one or two bad picks, having more than that severely increases the chances of your roster not having the firepower needed to win in the regular season […]

We’ve got a lot to talk about over the next few months in the NFL’s lull period before training camp, so we can look at a few wide receiver options that are just not appealing to draft. There could be several factors that lead us to not draft them, like target competition, quarterback issues, off-the-field […]

Getting your picks right in the first few rounds of your fantasy football draft has never been more important in putting together a winning squad. Getting those first couple of picks wrong is a good way to plummet to the bottom of your league. Many of these picks are at the top for a reason: […]

We're always looking for the next great star wide receiver in fantasy football, and finding some of these players who hit immediately can supercharge your fantasy teams and propel them to a championship. Players like Justin Jefferson, Ja'Marr Chase, Malik Nabers, and Brandon Aiyuk come to mind as players who immediately took the NFL and […]

With the NFL’s free agency and the NFL Draft now in the rear-view mirror, we can look at a few wide receivers whose situations may have changed. Whether it’s competition, quarterback issues, off-the-field issues, or whatever the case may be, many factors lead us to say to flat-out avoid these receivers for this season. I […]

We may be past the NFL’s free agency period and the 2025 NFL Draft, but a lot has happened in the past couple of months to shape the average draft position in early drafts. As we head further into spring and summer, it’s a great idea to take a look at the tight end landscape […]

We’re well past the NFL’s free agency period and a little ways after the NFL Draft, so it’s a good time to check in on some of the average draft position (ADP) risers at quarterback as we head into the late spring. Conversely, through some of the wheeling and dealing teams have done, some quarterback […]

Now that the dust has settled on the NFL’s free-agency period and we’re in NFL Draft season, it’s time to take some inventory on the players with new locales. Some players landed in great sports to enhance their fantasy value, while the stock of others remains to be seen whether or not they will be […]

With the dust settling in free agency and a few weeks left until the NFL Draft in Green Bay, the average draft position (ADP) in early best ball drafts is most of what we have to rely on for early looks at the 2025 fantasy football draft landscape. With draft values popping up and presenting […]

Besides the obvious top picks in any fantasy football draft, finding the contributors in the middle rounds who end up producing close to or above some of the top-round players is paramount to fantasy success. Being able to sort out any of these players before games have been played is, of course, very subjective. Now […]

Combining several players on one team -- stacking -- is an increasingly advantageous way to boost your fantasy football teams and, in this case, your best ball teams. Selecting two or more players consolidates the scoring within an offense and if you hit on an offense that many predict to be middle-of-the-pack and they become […]

One of the biggest factors in winning fantasy football teams is finding middle-to-late-round sleepers. With wide receivers typically carrying the most drafted players of any position, it makes sense that taking multiple stabs at the position in search of hitting multiple-round values is the way to set yourself apart in drafts. For 2025, the draft […]

Tight end is one of the most important positions in fantasy football, and heading into 2025, the position seems even deeper than it has been in past seasons. Sure, there’s the new cream rising to the top with Brock Bowers and Trey McBride, but a lot of veterans are seen much lower in best ball […]

There were plenty of fantasy football wide receivers last season who outperformed their draft-day ADP in best ball. Finding these receivers later in best ball drafts is a huge key to ultimately winning in your leagues. Finding a handful of mid-to-late-round receivers frees up early draft capital to focus on other positions so you can […]

Tight end is one of the most pivotal positions in fantasy football, and as the calendar shifts to 2025 fantasy drafts, the need for maximizing your draft picks is as essential as ever. You’ve got Brock Bowers and Trey McBride at the top of the tight-end position, but plenty of tight ends come up from […]
