Deeper Sleepers Heading Into Week 7
Apologies for not telling you to add fantasy superstars Nick O'Leary, David Moore, and Brock Osweiller last week. Clearly I have failed you as a fantasy football writer.

Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 6 Fantasy Football Picks
Just like there is no such thing as an announcer jinx, the same goes for writers or analysts. To call Jay Ajayi a fantasy bust and "Zero" last week, only to see him suffer another devastating injury by tearing his ACL, isn't my fault. It doesn't feel good to see it either, especially since I […]

RB Touches and Efficiency Breakdown - Week 6 Preview
It’s frustrating. I don’t claim to be smarter than NFL executives or general managers. While that would be a dream job, I’m content right here at my computer giving my opinion.

Defenses to Stream Against with Confidence
A football player is only as good as his matchup. For players on the fringes of fantasy rosters, that proves to be true more often than not.
