First-Hand NFL Combine Observations

The NFL Combine is a great experience for potential draft picks. It's an opportunity for players to show off their athleticism and help reinforce some of the attributes scouts see on tape.

Dynasty Running Backs - Football Rankings Analysis

In dynasty leagues, running backs are always the most difficult position to gauge. They can be a great short-term investment, but can be a mind boggling issue when looking at their long-term value.

2018 Catchers - Early Points League Rankings and Tiers

If you play in a head-to-head points league, or season long format, you already know how difficult it can be to find fantasy analysis tailored to the format.

#TrendingNow - Fantasy Baseball Dynasty Risers and Fallers

We are just under 30 days away from pitchers and catchers reporting! Just under 30 days from the smell of pine tar and freshly cut grass.

Week 16 Dynasty Matchup Analysis

Dynasty owners don’t play week to week, they play long term. However, dynasty owners still need to analyze different aspects of weekly matchups to determine the best time to sell or buy a player. Make sure you don’t buy that hot rookie too soon and don’t sell the aging veteran too late. Each week, I […]


Fantasy Implications - Zack Cozart to Angels

We seem to have one team every offseason who comes out of nowhere to go all in for a shot at a championship. The calendar hasn’t even switched to 2018 and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim have already solidified themselves as one of the top winners this offseason. The Angels made a splash by […]


#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers Week 16

Well ladies and gentleman, we have finally made it. The last week of the fantasy football season is here (for a majority of owners anyway).

Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 15)

Week 15 Monday Night Football has more of a feeling like Thursday Night Football this week.

With a win, Atlanta could stay alive for a playoff spot while Tampa Bay just wants to […]


Week 15 Dynasty Matchup Preview

Dynasty owners don’t play week to week, they play long term. However, dynasty owners still need to analyze different aspects of weekly matchups to determine the best time to sell or buy a player.

#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers Week 15

As an owner in a dynasty fantasy football league, one of the most difficult things to gauge is a player’s status with their team.

Don't You Forget About Me - Dynasty Injury Targets

If you’ve watched “The Breakfast Club” you know how the final scene goes. The day is over, the kids get in their cars and drive off.

Week 14 Dynasty Matchups Preview

Dynasty owners don’t play week to week, they play long term. However, dynasty owners still need to analyze different aspects of weekly matchups to determine the best time to sell or buy a player. Make sure you don’t buy that hot rookie too soon and don’t sell the aging veteran too late. Each week, I […]


#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers Week 14

I would like to take a second and welcome you to the all tight end edition of #TrendingNow. If your name isn’t Rob Gronkowski, Travis Kelce or Zach Ertz, you can sometimes be overlooked at the position. Most fantasy football owners don’t play TE premium leagues (leagues in which TEs score more than other players) […]

Dynasty owners don’t play week to week, they play long term. However, dynasty owners still need to analyze different aspects of weekly matchups to determine the best time to sell or buy a player.

#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers Week 13

Here we go. Seems like just yesterday I was writing #TrendingNow to detail players who were up or down based on preseason performances. I was ready for Week 1 and just wanted the season to hurry up. Now all of the sudden we are headed into Week 13 and the season has flown bye. We […]


Week 12 Dynasty Matchup Previews

Dynasty owners don’t play week to week, they play long term. However, dynasty owners still need to analyze different aspects of weekly matchups to determine the best time to sell or buy a player. Make sure you don’t buy that hot rookie too soon and don’t sell the aging veteran too late. Each week, I […]
