We had an absolutely wild ending in a Game 7 on Wednesday night, with James Harden blocking Lu Dort's 3-pointer (and some more ensuing chaos) in the final seconds to give the Rockets the series win over the Thunder.

Wing-Clipped: Managing the Eagles Wide Receivers

What seems to be an on-going joke around the NFL in recent seasons is the health status or lack thereof regarding the Philadelphia Eagles receiving corps. One person who isn't laughing: Carson Wentz.

Updated Running Back Draft Rankings - Standard Scoring (Non-PPR)

The NFL might be a quarterback-driven, pass-first league these days, but you are not going to win a fantasy football league without a decent running back corps. Even though more NFL teams are going with a running-back-by-committee philosophy rather than relying on a running back to be a three-down workhorse, fantasy rosters have to be […]

There is a tremendous amount of depth at the wide receiver position in fantasy football this season.
