Pre-Week 1 Post-Draft: Risers and Fallers

We are a few days away from the beginning of the fantasy football season.

Can’t you feel it? You will never be […]

Four Late Round Wide Receiver Sleepers You Should Be Drafting

Especially with half-point and full-point PPR leagues, wide receivers that earn targets from their quarterbacks are some of the most sought after pieces in fantasy football drafts. With injuries to major players like Jordy Nelson and Kelvin Benjamin, managers drafting in the next week may have to dip further into the wide receiver pool than […]

The Top Running Back Handcuffs for 2015: Who To Own?

Close your eyes and imagine this. You’re in the midst of a beautiful season, your studs are doing work, you hit on your sleepers, your team is firing on all cylinders. And then your RB1 crumbles into a heap. You don’t have the backup, that stupid smug schmuck Steve does. Steve is now blowing up […]

LeGarrette Blount: Undervalued RB to Target in 2015

LeGarrette Blount was a force to be reckoned with at the end of last season. In a year in which Bill Belichick used everything that moved for his running back job, Blount came out of nowhere (the waivers) to lead the Pats’ rushing attack into the playoffs and beyond. Despite scoring just three times in five games […]

Three Undervalued Tight Ends to Target in 2015 Drafts

While the tight end position is not the most studied and thought out of the offensive positions (in fact, it might be last), an undervalued tight end taken at the right time can really boost a fantasy team. For that reason, I’ve outlined three tight ends below that, if taken at the right point in […]

Three Undervalued Running Backs Based on ADP Data

The days of building your fantasy football team around two stud running backs drafted in the first two rounds are over. Most NFL teams rely on a committee of running backs, as opposed to the workhorse strategy of old, and there are only a handful of true bell cow backs left in the league. If […]

Dynasty Rookie Profile: Tennessee Titans WR Dorial Green-Beckham

The Tennessee Titans clearly held offense as a priority headed into 2015 NFL Draft, and took wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham with the 40th-overall pick after drafting quarterback Marcus Mariota in the first. The plan is for the two college stand-outs to mature together and establish themselves as the core of an offense on the rise, […]

Four Deeper Sleepers to Target in 2015 Fantasy Football Drafts

I love late round fliers. What’s not to like? They are your last few picks on draft day (besides DEF/K) so there is very little risk involved, and if they hit, you look like a fantasy football genius. If they don’t hit, you just cut them and move on to the hot waiver pickup of the […]

For the Third Year in a Row, SF WR Anquan Boldin is a Sleeper

DeVante Parker, Amari Cooper, Martavis Bryant, Nelson Agholor, Devin Funchess...what do these guys have in common? They are all projected to score more points at the wide receiver position this season than Anquan Boldin and I just don't get it. I guess if you want your fellow league mates to pat you on the back, […]

Why DeAndre Hopkins Can Be Even Better in 2015

DeAndre Hopkins is the ideal draft value for me this year.  One main reason is he will no longer be under the shadow of Andre Johnson and be the true #1 WR for the Houston Texans. With Johnson going to the Colts, I expect that Hopkins will see an increase in targets and overall numbers from […]
