Early 2020 Sleepers - Running Backs

The top players at the running back position are well known. They are tried and true and never fail to live up to the billing. Unless you think players like LeVeon Bell, Todd Gurley II, David Johnson, and Melvin Gordon III disappointed last season. Oh, they did? Well then. Maybe you should be happy there […]

XFL Recap: Which Players Might Find Their Way To The NFL?

As I'm sure you've heard, the XFL's first season is officially over due to COVID-19.

Looking For Market Inefficiencies at Quarterback

No matter which type of person you are. No matter which type of fantasy owner profile you fit into. No matter what, you're looking for market inefficiencies as we all are.

James White Proves the Value of Low-Volume, Highly-Productive Backs

I was reviewing the 2019 fantasy season results yesterday when I stumbled upon something that caught my attention.

You've Heard About Volatility, It's Time to Learn About It

High-variance, volatile football players. The risky bets. We all know who those players are and, most of all, we all know about what they can do--for the good and for the bad. When was the last time you trusted someone like Will Fuller or Amari Cooper to go off the charts and they let you down? You […]

Biggest Surprises of 2019 - Quarterback

The quarterback position in fantasy football is always one that either gets seriously overvalued, or seriously underrated.

This year, we saw Mahomes get drafted extremely early, and while he was still good, […]

Biggest Surprises of 2019 - Wide Receiver

The wide receiver position was probably the most exciting position of the 2019 fantasy football seasons, with so many different breakouts and busts. We saw stud wide receivers like Odell Beckham and JuJu Smith-Schuster become extremely hard to trust and frustrating to own. We also saw a handful of rookie wide receivers out-perform their pre-season […]

Biggest Surprises of 2019: Running Back

The 2019 NFL season was an interesting year for the running back position. Christian McCaffrey was the overall RB1, but some of the other top players fell below expectations.

Biggest Breakouts of 2019: Quarterback

2019 was a very interesting season of fantasy football, to say the least. It's safe to say no one was banking on the season that we saw from Lamar Jackson but he wasn't the only one to stand out. At the quarterback position, we saw some really exciting players start to shine and some older […]

Tight End ADP Winners and Losers: 2019 Season Review

I've always believed that it is easier to lose a fantasy championship than to win it on draft day. It makes sense, as sure-fire players are expected to reward their owners with a lower risk-factor than the other way around and thus they're always drafter earlier. If they put up a season-long dud, though, you'll […]

Biggest Surprises of 2019: Tight End

The 2019 NFL season was anything but predictable. I mean, the Tennessee Titans made the AFC title game! Andrew Luck retired right before the season! [Insert one of many, many other things here, because all lists need three items but I couldn't decide between all the possible third options.] One position where things at the […]

2020 Early Quarterback Sleepers and Draft Targets

Heading into 2020, Lamar Jackson, Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson, and Deshaun Watson will surely be the most-coveted quarterbacks in fantasy football drafts. Similar to Patrick Mahomes in 2018, Lamar Jackson took the NFL by storm in his first year as a full-time starter and set an NFL record for rushing yards by a quarterback. Personally, […]
