Kenyan Drake Gets Three Carries in First Preseason Game

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake got three carries and picked up 16 yards in the Dolphins' 26-24 preseason loss to the Buccaneers. Drake only played the opening series before being lifted.

Ryan Tannehill Plays One Series in First Preseason Game

Kevin Gausman To The Braves - Fantasy Implications

With so many big-name players changing teams this trade deadline Kevin Gausman may fly under the radar. On the surface, he doesn’t look like much, with a 5-8 record and 4.43 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, and 7.55 K/9 in 21 starts with Baltimore this season. However, this move to Atlanta could be exactly what Gausman needs […]

A.J. Derby Considered Day-To-Day

Chris Ivory (RB, BUF) - 2018 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target ~165 CURRENT ADP: ~180 ANALYSIS: It’s always tough to deal with legal situations in fantasy football, especially since the NFL has proven to be inconsistent with its punitive measures regarding domestic violence situations in the past.

The Shift is a Problem for Bryce Harper, But Not the Only Problem
