Dynasty Wide Receivers - Football Rankings Analysis

Wide receivers have been prioritized by dynasty owners in recent years, as the movement toward running-back-by-committee and relatively short shelf-life of running backs has made them a more volatile commodity. Receivers can be productive well into their 30s and tend to be more consistent. After 2017, we may be seeing a shift back toward the […]

NFL Draft Sleepers - Braxton Berrios

This year's crop of wide receivers hasn't generated nearly as much enthusiasm as last year. In the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft, three receivers were taken in the first 10 picks, followed by another three WR in the second round. In 2018, only two WR are projected to be first-rounders with a steep […]

Raimel Tapia (OF, COL) - 2018 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers & Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target ~330 CURRENT ADP:  396 ANALYSIS: Raimel Tapia hasn't gotten the Coors Field bump in terms of ADP, as he is basically free on draft day at his current price. Tapia consistently hit well over .300 in each minor league stop and finished with a .288 average in 160 at-bats for the Rockies last […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Conference Championship Fantasy Football Picks

It's hard to believe we have only one more weekend before the Super Bowl matchup is set.

Running Back Targets for DFS and Playoff Leagues: Conference Championships

For all the crazy finishes, dramatic moments, and early upsets, we're left with a 1-2 seed matchup in the NFC and 1-3 in the AFC. Unless the Jags pull off the ultimate upset by knocking off the defending champs this weekend, this year's playoffs may go down as many expected from the outset. The same […]

Josh Hill Catches Three Passes for 54 Yards Against Vikings

New Orleans Saints tight end Josh Hill caught three passes for 54 yards against Minnesota in the second round of the playoffs. Both are season highs for a sparsely-used tight end that was a backup for most of the year. Hill, like any receiver in the Saints offense, often has a chance to score or […]

Ted Ginn Leads Team with Eight Catches in Playoff Loss

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn finished with a team-high eight receptions in a loss to Minnesota on Sunday. He ended up with 72 yards, but no touchdowns. Ginn made a 29-yard reception that went for a touchdown in the second quarter, but it was nullified by a penalty and wiped out. Ginn technically […]

Michael Thomas Scores Twice in Divisional Round Matchup

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas had seven receptions for 85 yards and two touchdowns in the divisional round of the playoffs. Thomas was the first to get the Saints on the scoreboard with a 14-yard score in the third quarter and followed it up with a three-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter. […]

Mark Ingram Puts Up Dud in Playoff Loss

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram ended a stellar 2017 campaign with two massively disappointing games in the playoffs. Ingram carried the ball 10 times for 25 yards and added one reception for three yards against the Vikings, one week after totaling just 35 yards against the Panthers. Ingram found himself out-touched by rookie […]

Alvin Kamara Nearly Plays Hero with Late Touchdown Against Vikings

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara surpassed 100 yards from scrimmage and scored a touchdown in the divisional round of the playoffs. Kamara outrushed Mark Ingram for the second straight game, putting up 43 yards on 11 carries, and also caught four passes for 62 yards. Kamara's score came with just over two minutes […]

Drew Brees Tosses Three Touchdowns in Playoff Loss

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees started off extremely slow, but finished with excellent passing numbers again in the second round of the playoffs. Brees threw for 294 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. The two picks came in the first half, as the Saints fell to a 17-0 deficit at halftime. He nearly brought […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Divisional Round Fantasy Football Picks

I have to admit I'm a bit peeved that LeSean McCoy miraculously healed from his ankle injury in time to ruin my Marcus Murphy sleeper pick. Otherwise, I might have gone six-for-six on my Hero picks last week. Sure, Kareem Hunt didn't put up huge numbers, but he did score a touchdown to at least […]

Ted Ginn Could Repeat History with Big Play in Divisional Round

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn was one of the more valuable tournament plays in the Wild-Card round, putting up 115 yards and a touchdown. Most of that came on one play in the first quarter, an 80-yard bomb against his former team in Carolina. It's tricky to expect more of the same against an […]

Drew Brees Not Guaranteed Repeat of Last Week

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees lit up the Panthers for 376 yards in a first-round playoff victory, as Carolina stacked the box in an effort to take away the run game. Minnesota will likely do the same with even greater success, as they ranked first in rush defense this season. That doesn't mean Brees […]

Mark Ingram a Risky Play in Divisional Round

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram followed up his career-best regular season in 2017 with a complete dud in the playoffs. Ingram ran for 22 yards and failed to score against Carolina last week. He gets a far tougher test this weekend with a road game against the Minnesota Vikings on deck. Ingram logged […]

Alvin Kamara Must Raise Efficiency in Difficult Matchup with Vikings

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has been the most efficient running back in the league, even as a rookie. Kamara finished the 2017 season with a league-leading 6.1 yards-per-carry rushing average and 10.2 yards per reception. He scored 13 total touchdowns on just over 200 touches. It will be tough to match those […]

Michael Thomas a Good Bet to Rack Up Targets Against Vikings Despite Tough Draw

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas kept his late-season mojo going in the Wild-Card round with eight catches for 131 yards. He already ended the regular season by setting the record for most catches by a wideout through his first two NFL seasons, breaking a record recently set by Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham […]

Andrus Peat Placed on Injured Reserve

New Orleans Saints offensive lineman Andrus Peat (ankle, leg) was placed on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, ending his season and participation in the playoffs. Peat suffered a broken fibula and high ankle sprain in last week's win over Carolina. He should recover fully ahead of the 2018 season, but it will leave a sizable hole […]
