Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers was terrific after arriving last season, catching 42 passes for 483 yards and three touchdowns on 61 targets in nine games.

Draft season is upon us, and running back is arguably the most important position you have to nail down. You can always get a high-value QB in late rounds, and overstock on WRs in the middle rounds, but for running backs, you absolutely have to draft a top-tier starter and a couple of competent backups. […]

Every year we attempt to assess which players can perform as well or better than they did the year before and target them in fantasy football. Like any other sport, just getting on the field for as many plays as possible is half the battle. But it's also about getting involved while you're out there. […]

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis is easy to like in theory. The problem is James Cook III isn't going anywhere. Davis had only 58 carries last season, finishing with 275 rushing yards, while Cook ran for 1,621 yards on 309 carries and won the rushing title. That's a pretty wide gap. Davis did show […]

Hey RotoBallers! The kicker position is often the most frustrating position in fantasy. While it may seem ideal to invest in a kicker who plays on a top offense, investing a rather "high" pick in this position may end up preventing you from finding some much-needed depth at your FLEX positions.

New England Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown had his best practice of camp Wednesday, catching all seven of his targets against his former Philadelphia Eagles teammates, according to Mark Daniels.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy remains the team's No. 2 for now, according to Kevin Seifert. Head coach Kevin O'Connell made McCarthy's standing clear Wednesday, though he also said he wants the quarterback room to stay competitive and did not completely rule out revisiting things. McCarthy worked with the second-team offense in Saturday's preseason opener […]

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray kept looking for Justin Jefferson during Wednesday's joint practice with the Baltimore Ravens, according to Kevin Seifert. The pair connected a couple of times in 7-on-7 work, but the full-team periods were tougher with Marlon Humphrey tight in coverage. That was more of a difficult practice than a warning sign. […]

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele was already running with the top group before Jordyn Tyson's hamstring injury. Now the window is a lot wider. Tyson, the No. 8 pick in April, is expected to miss roughly two months and could open the season on short-term Injured Reserve. Vele at least has something on […]

Tennessee Titans head coach Robert Saleh said that rookie first-round wide receiver Carnell Tate (undisclosed) was held out of Wednesday's training camp practice with "stiffness" that is unrelated to the big hit he took on Monday, according to Terry McCormick.
