Even though McCaffrey was a star at Stanford, there were concerns regarding his ability to perform at the NFL level as a true between-the-tackles running back. Would […]

Born to Run - Starting RB/RB in Fantasy Football Drafts
Way back when I first started playing this wonderful game, this type of article would be superfluous. Obviously you should go RB/RB if you can. That was back in 2003 and for much of the 2000s, there was little debate over the optimal strategy - if you could get two quality RBs in the first […]

Pat Mahomes vs 2018 QB Rookie Class

For fantasy football, […]
