Super Bowl Extravaganza - Prop Picks and Game Predictions

The Super Bowl is here, but did you know how it got its name? The first three Super Bowls were not called the Super Bowl, but rather the AFL-NFL World Championship Game. Per The Atlantic, "As the big game approaches we will once again be told that, as Wikipedia puts it, the name "Super Bowl" […]

Fantasy Football Eulogy - Jay Cutler

The 2017 NFL season is over and the 2018 NFL Draft isn't here yet, which means everyone across the fantasy football realm--the redrafters and the dynasty-ers--has a little time to relax and look back, to reminisce about your successes and failures over the past year. It's also a chance to look back at the careers […]

Biggest Surprises of 2017 - Tight Ends

The tight end position is one in fantasy football that can really go one of two ways. You either pay up to get Rob Gronkowski, or you wait it out and roll a guy like Cameron Brate or Jack Doyle out there every week. In recent years, there have been two young stud TEs emerge, […]

Biggest Surprises of 2017 - Wide Receivers

The top players at the wide receiver position this year included some names that no one ever would have even came close to guessing. Antonio Brown as the number one WR in PPR leagues isn’t something that is too surprising for anyone, but some of the other names on this list were far from locks […]

2018 NFL Draft Class Preview - Wide Receivers (Part 2)

Part one of my 2018 NFL Draft Wide Receivers preview featured six of the wide receivers projected to be drafted early, however much of the excitement for this draft class is in the depth. Once again, we'll be primarily using the regression tree created by Kevin Cole to examine the production of the prospects with success being […]

Biggest Surprises of 2017 - Running Backs

Every fantasy season is full of surprises - that's what makes fantasy football so exciting. Whether it’s breakout players, veterans who fall off, or rookies shocking the world, there’s always something that just flat-out surprises us. This year, there were some major shocks at the RB position. The New Orleans Saints moving from their typical […]

Biggest Risers and Fallers of 2017 - Wide Receivers

So far we've looked at the biggest risers and fallers at both the quarterback and running back positions. This time we're looking at wide receivers who improved their stock or saw it plummet. Wide receiver scoring was down as a whole this season, which meant more fallers than usual. At the same time, some veteran […]

2018 NFL Draft Class Preview - Running Backs (Part 2)

In Part One for RBs, I highlighted six running backs (actually seven, but Bryce Love decided to pull a surprise return to school) who have the potential to be drafted highly in the upcoming NFL Draft, but my general takeaway from this class is the depth. This class goes about 16 to 20 deep with players who could […]

Biggest Surprises of 2017 - Quarterbacks

Quarterbacks tend to be some of the more undervalued commodities in fantasy football. For years owners have been punting the quarterback position in their redraft leagues. Dynasty leagues have owners moving breakout stars around when their value blows up, just to roll with a guy like Philip Rivers week in and week out. It makes […]

Biggest Breakouts at Quarterback - 2017 Year in Review

If you have to build a football team, start with the QB first. If you have to build a fantasy football team, you can do one of three things: Pick a surefire guy in the second or third round, confident that the player you picked will be a lock, worry about nothing else. Roll the […]

Biggest Breakouts at Running Back - 2017 Year in Review

Breakout players are how you win your league. They are the players that finish the season ranked significantly higher than where you drafted them. Since we also have the Biggest Surprises series, I will do my best to distinguish a breakout from a surprise. In doing so, I am making a blanket rule at the […]

2018 NFL Draft Class Preview - Quarterbacks (Part 2)

Part one of my 2018 NFL Draft quarterbacks preview featured the five most exciting quarterbacks from this upcoming NFL draft, but this class does have a bit of depth so this is part two of my QB breakdowns. Most of these blurbs will be slightly shorter than part one because they're unlikely to be drafted […]

NFL Rookies To Watch - 2017 Year In Review

With another fantasy football season in the books, it can be said that the rookie class showed up in a big way for fantasy owners. With several running backs taking the league by storm and options at other positions, the 2017 rookie class did not disappoint. This article is supposed to review the 2017 class […]

Biggest Tight End Busts - 2017 Year in Review

At the end of every year of fantasy football, you're left with some immediate observations about what you'll do differently in 2018. You'll spend time thinking about which RB is potentially going to be your money-in-the-bank guy in 2018, or which third-round wide receiver will make up for the 2017 mistake of drafting Terrelle Pryor in that spot. […]

Biggest Risers and Fallers of 2017 - Quarterbacks

The quarterback position saw plenty of volatility in 2017, as 58 different quarterbacks started at least one game. And that's just for the Cleveland Browns... We saw a rookie sensation, some second-year ascents, and the possible beginning of the end for some established veterans. Then there was Old Faithful Tom Brady defying the odds yet again. […]

2018 NFL Draft Class Preview - Tight Ends

Today we'll continue to evaluate the 2018 NFL draft class by taking a look at the tight end position. Typically, tight ends take a little extra time to develop into contributing members of the offense, but 2017 proved that some can make an immediate impact. While this class has some high-caliber talent, the expectation should […]

Over the next few weeks, I'll be providing quick NFL Draft previews for 2018 fantasy-relevant prospects at the quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and tight end positions.

Conference Championship Game Picks - NFL Playoff Predictions

Championship Sunday has arrived and boy did it take some dumb stupid coaching decisions to get here.

Four teams remain in the NFL playoffs after an eventful Divisional Round that was capped off by Stefon Diggs making a play that will forever endear him to Vikings fans. It was wild. It was wonderful. Even the non-football fans at a bar were amazed by it. The Case Keenum fan inside of me went […]
