Rob Lorge's League-Winning Fantasy Football Wide Receivers (Part II)

We all want league winners, but the reality is that there are only 15 or so players who qualify as such in any given year. Short of drafting legit league-winners, we want to be drafting guys with significant upside at their cost. In the first entry of this series, three receivers were identified that fantasy […]

10 Quick Fantasy Football Takeaways from the Thursday and Friday Preseason Games

Preseason games aren't the end-all, be-all, but they're not nothing either. There is information that we can take away from the games that take place, despite the limited snap counts for starters. It is important not to overreact - positively or negatively - to any singular piece of information. The other thing we need to […]

Best Fantasy Football Fits for the Remaining Free Agent Wide Receivers

Free Agency has been going on for over a week now. The best free agents have already been signed, making the pickings a little slim if teams are looking for any immediate impact players. That doesn't mean there aren't some quality players left available who could be fantasy-relevant in the right situation. In this article, […]

Three-Round Post Free Agency 2025 NFL Mock Draft

NFL Free Agency has been up for more than a week, and very few impact players are left available. Because of that, any player a team signs from now until the NFL Draft is unlikely to alter their draft-day plans significantly. However, the early portion of free agency can substantially impact which players and which […]

Fantasy Football Rankings For Every Team's Pass-Catchers (WR/TE)

The NFL has become a passing league. It's been like that for a while now; it's no mystery. Wide receivers and tight ends are some of the most popular players in the league. For fantasy football, we have continued to emphasize receivers more than running backs. NFL general managers are doing the same. For goodness […]

Tight End Fantasy Football Breakouts from Last Year - 2025 Outlooks

Once the NFL season is over, it's always interesting -- and helpful -- to look back at the season that was and see what we can learn from it. In this entry, we'll review the tight-end position for 2024 and identify three breakout tight ends. First, we must define what a breakout is. For this […]

Najee Harris's Fantasy Football Potential is Super-Charged in LA

The heart of the NFL Free Agency is already behind us. Minor deals will be made from now until training camp, but the big fish have been signed. We've also seen several trades go through, and there will likely be more, especially as we lead up to the NFL Draft. However, Najee Harris, the former […]

Who Has the Most Fantasy Football Value to Gain and Lose in Free Agency

Free agency gets started later today with the legal tampering period. However, deals cannot be officially signed until Wednesday. Still, we won't have to wait long before news of future deals is reported. Not surprisingly, free agency can significantly impact fantasy football value. A good player can become a great one in the right system. […]

Best Fantasy Football Landing Spots for 2025 Rookie Wide Receivers: NFL Trades and Free Agency Impact

With the NFL Draft quickly approaching, the ramifications of where some of these players get selected will significantly impact their fantasy football value. In dynasty leagues, fantasy managers may not worry about landing spots as much because once you draft them in that kind of league, you have them for their entire career if you […]

2025 NFL Mock Draft: Best Case Scenario for All 32 Teams

Predicting the first round of the NFL Draft is a futile exercise. The “best” mock drafts have a hit rate lower than Anthony Richardson's completion percentage, which probably explains why so many are floating about. Here, we won’t be trying to predict the future of the 2025 NFL Draft. Instead, we will be doing an […]

Best Trade Destinations And Landing Spots for DK Metcalf In 2025 Fantasy Football

DK Metcalf is still a member of the Seattle Seahawks, at least for now. However, he’s requested a trade. He’s in the final year of his contract and wants to get paid. Seattle has allowed Metcalf and his representatives to find a trade partner. Part of that process involves Metcalf and the new team agreeing […]

Breakout Wide Receivers - Fantasy Football Outlooks for Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Jameson Williams, more

This series continues to roll on with Part 2 of our breakout receivers. First, we must define what a breakout is. For this series, there will be two criteria a player can meet to qualify for breakout status. The first is a player who solidly outplays their ADP and preseason expectations. This is that preseason […]

Breakout Wide Receivers - Fantasy Football Outlooks for Drake London, Brian Thomas, more

It's always fun to look back at the NFL regular season and find which players excelled. Who took their games to new heights? This series, which we started with two entries on running backs, will move forward looking at the wide receiver position. We'll identify six receivers across two articles who broke out this season. […]

Breakout Fantasy Football Running Backs From The 2024 Season - Part II

Depending on how the fantasy football season ended for you -- and for most of us, it didn’t end the way we wanted it to -- looking back on the season, that might be something we’d rather not do. However, taking a review of the season is beneficial. Here, we’ll look back at three breakout […]

Breakout Fantasy Football Running Backs From The 2024 Season - Part I

With the 2024 fantasy football season in the rearview mirror, now is a good time to review what happened, what we learned, and who broke out. We'll kick off this series with a two-part entry on the six running backs that broke out this past season. Future entries will focus on the receiver, tight end, […]

Tale of Two Seasons - Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Edition Part IV

If you’ve been following this series, you know the drill and what to expect by now. If you haven’t, we’re identifying receivers who had two significantly different splits during the course of the 2024 season. If you’d like to get caught up and read some of the other previously published editions, you can do so […]

Tale of Two Seasons - Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Edition Part III

If you’ve played fantasy football for any time, you’re accustomed to seeing a player’s splits—a comparison between his stats during one period of the season vs another. This is different than a two or three-game sample. We're looking at two samples, typically consisting of six to eight games per split. Sometimes, splits can be just […]

Tale of Two Seasons - Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Edition (Part II)

It's not uncommon for a player to have a hot streak or a cold spell during a long season. It's the nature of the beast. What is, however, less common is when a player seemingly flips a switch and becomes a different player entirely. Sometimes, a player has two different seasons in a single year. […]

Tight Ends Touchdowns Fallers for Fantasy Football - Regression Candidates

Fantasy points per game is one of the best predictive stats for fantasy managers. However, a player's point-per-game average can sometimes be significantly impacted by how many touchdowns they did or did not score. For 80% of a position's player pool, the players score more or less what we'd expect or in line with their […]

A Tale of Two Seasons - Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Edition (Part I)

The NFL season is long and can result in players performing differently throughout the year. Sometimes, a player starts hot but fades down the stretch. Other times, they start cold but catch fire late in the year. Identifying these can not only be interesting but can also help fantasy managers understand who to buy or […]

Tight Ends Touchdowns Risers for Fantasy Football - Progression Candidates

Some statistics are sticky to year-to-year. Some stats, such as targets and yards, are somewhat predictable. Touchdowns, however, can vary greatly. It's how some guys only score two touchdowns on 147 targets while others score 11 touchdowns on 69. However, fantasy managers shouldn't expect those outcomes to repeat themselves. That creates a buying opportunity. This […]

Wide Receiver Touchdown Risers for Fantasy Football - Progression Candidates

Sometimes, it would be nice if fantasy football players did exactly what their volume expected them to do. For example, if a quarterback has the most pass and red-zone pass attempts, they'll also have the most touchdowns. It only makes sense. That, unfortunately, is not how life or fantasy football works. Guys run hot. Guys […]

Wide Receiver Touchdown Fallers for Fantasy Football - Regression Candidates

Touchdowns are fickle. We know this. Every single year, this happens. Someone has a ton of targets and very few targets. It happened in 2022 with Diontae Johnson, in 2023 with Chris Godwin, and this year with Trey McBride. Then, there are always guys on the other side of the spectrum who score way more […]

2025 NFL Offseason Fantasy Football Predictions

The NFL season is dwindling, and before you know it, the offseason will be upon us. The first domino to fall is always the coaches, and while that's fun, it doesn't compare to the player movement that will happen through the spring and summer. Predicting offseason moves is always tricky, as are mock drafts. Is […]

Very Early 2025 Fantasy Football Rankings with Rookies and Tiers - Top 230 for Redraft Leagues

The 2024 NFL regular season just ended, but that doesn’t mean fantasy football has to. At least not totally. If you play in a dynasty or keeper league, or maybe you’re just consumed by fantasy football and cannot get enough, these 2025 fantasy football rankings should get you thinking about next season. Anytime you’re doing […]

Who is the Best NFL Wide Receiver Since 1990?

With the increased popularity of receivers in fantasy football and the advancement of data and film study (colossal shout-out to Reception Perception), the average football fan or fantasy football manager has more data and information at their fingertips than ever. That increased knowledge leads to more intense debates. Who is the best receiver? We could […]

Fantasy Football Lessons Learned - Things I Missed On This Year

The 2024 fantasy football season is now complete. As with every season, there were a lot of hits and misses in terms of my preseason takes and expectations. There are always going to be big whiffs and huge wins. It’s the nature of the game. However, we’re not trying to be right 100% of the […]

Fantasy Football Lessons Learned - Things I Was Right About This Year

The 2024 fantasy football season is over. Now is the time to look back to see what we got right and wrong. Every wrong doesn't mean we were wrong; every right doesn't mean we were right. Technically, it does, but that shouldn't always be the takeaway. Sometimes, our process was correct, but bad luck just […]
