WR Victor Cruz Should Rebound in 2015

Victor Cruz has a 1500 yard season to his name. He has a 10 TD season to his name. He was THE feel good story of the league. He was the guy the burst on the scene out of the University of Massachusetts Amherst and never looked back...until last year. Two years ago Cruz was […]

TB WR Mike Evans Primed For a Bigger Year

Many would argue that outside of Odell Beckham, Jr., Mike Evans was the most impressive of the outstanding class of rookie wide receivers in 2014. While Beckham, Jr. received much of the hype for his circus catches and absurd yardage totals, Evans gave him a run for his money in touchdowns, hauling in 12 in […]

NYJ RB Chris Ivory: Potential Three-Down Back and Draft Steal?

Since joining the Jets in 2013, Chris Ivory has led the team in carries both years. That isn’t exactly saying a whole lot, as he failed to crack 200 carries in either season. That said, the Jets did bring in some real competition last year in former star Chris Johnson. This year the Jets have […]

Is ARI WR Larry Fitzgerald Bouncing Back in 2015?

While he’s been one of the most reliable and productive wide receivers of the last decade, many are writing off Larry Fitzgerald in 2015 for a variety of reasons. He’s old, the Cardinals have two young receivers in Michael Floyd and John Brown who will steal targets, he’s old, he has declined in the last […]

Jonathan Stewart: 2015 Fantasy Football Draft Value

Jonathan Stewart is the ultimate candidate for “what might have been” discussions. Since entering the league in 2008, Stewart has not started more than eight games in a season, thanks in large part to the presence of DeAngelo Williams. The two have cannibalized each other’s value for years, but with Williams now backing up Le’Veon […]

Five Wide Receivers Primed for More Touchdowns in 2015

Touchdowns can be a fickle thing. In 2010 Dwayne Bowe led all receivers with a whopping fifteen touchdowns. In four mostly full seasons since, he has had a combined thirteen scores. As I’m sure most of you remember, that included zero last year from him and the rest of the Kansas City wide receivers. Even […]

Reggie Bush (RB, SF) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Late Rounds as a Flex Option or RB3. CURRENT ADP: 110 STD, 89 PPR ANALYSIS: Reggie Bush is a PPR beast who still has some playmaking ability left.Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025: 2025 fantasy football rankings Running back (RB) fantasy football rankings Wide receiver (WR) fantasy football rankings […]

Three Overlooked Veteran Wide Receivers: Draft Values for 2015

People are quick to turn away from the stars of yesteryear in favor of the "huge upside" they see blooming out of the young receivers. Is that really the right thing to do? While other players in your league are making huge reaches on the likes of Brandin Cooks and Kelvin Benjamin, in hopes they […]

Running Back DeMarco Murray's 2015 Fantasy Outlook

I think DeMarco Murray took a long nap after the season.  436 carries and 61 catches (including postseason) takes a huge toll on the body.  That’s an average of 27.6 touches per game, and that’s not including all of his blocking assignments and routes run without a catch.  To put it in perspective, Murray totaled […]

Top RB Sleepers for PPR Leagues in 2015

Roy Helu - Fantasy Pros ADP RB51 Roy Helu moved to the Raiders this past offseason and will be holding the role of backup behind Latavius Murray, but he is definitely the best receiving back on that team and offers sneaky value. In three full seasons used mostly as a third down back in Washington, Helu […]

Who Will Take Over for Arian Foster in Houston?

Arian Foster's groin injury is going to force him to enter surgery and miss anywhere from 6-8 weeks of the regular season depending on whether the Texan's decide to put him on PUP or IR (as of writing this article, which of the two they'll go with is unclear). While Foster tumbles down the draft […]

Running Back Sleepers For the 2015 Fantasy Football Season

Let’s take a look at the running backs that are currently being drafted 30th or later in standard/PPR leagues in order to find some sleepers for deeper leagues. These players can provide a nice return on your draft day investment, based on their current ADP and the potential production they can provide for fantasy football. You […]

Depth Chart Battles: San Francisco 49ers Starting Running Back

Remember back when Carlos Hyde was going to usurp Frank Gore as the 49ers starting running back in 2014? Remember even further back when Kendall Hunter was mentioned in that regard before Hyde even showed up? Well, you would think that since Gore is out of the picture entirely this backfield would be a lot more clear-cut. Sadly, […]

A Sleeper To Watch For in 2015: Dorial Green-Beckham

Around this time last year, there was considerable buzz surrounding rookie running back Bishop Sankey. Sankey automatically became a trendy sleeper within the fantasy community, but never met the expectations placed on him. Although he might not have nearly as much hype, rookie wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham is another player selected by the Tennessee Titans that should be considered […]

Where Should You Draft Mike Evans in 2015?

Mike Evans is poised for greatness in 2015, and that could spell success for fantasy owners who value him properly. Yahoo! currently ranks Evans 12th among receivers. However, that current third round ADP is a little high for me. I can’t justify taking Evans in the third round while comparable talent goes much deeper. You shouldn’t be […]

Depth Chart Battles: Which Titans RB Will Run Away with the Starting Job?

If you paid any attention to fantasy football last season you've heard the name Bishop Sankey. Sankey was a rookie running back drafted out of the University of Washington by the Tennessee Titans. The hype around Sankey as a potential fantasy starter grew to enormous heights, so much so that he was going as early as […]

Top 2015 Quarterback Sleepers for 2QB Leagues

Much like any other position there are always quarterbacks that surprise and far exceed their ADP. Just last year there were four QBs with an ADP of QB15 or worse that finished in the top ten (Wilson, Roethlisberger, Eli Manning and Tannehill). The year before that saw Andy Dalton explode for 33 touchdowns and finish […]

Top Tight End Sleepers for Fantasy Football in 2015

Tight end is shallow even for the smallest of leagues.  Let’s take a look at some sleepers for 8-12 man leagues at the tight end spot who could potentially put up TE1 numbers. Editor’s Note: If you’re looking for a new, awesome, highly customizable and free option for year-round commissioner & dynasty leagues, something more […]

Fantasy Football 12-Team Mock Draft: Results and Reactions

I recently did a mock draft on ESPN, and I thought I would share the results here and discuss some of the picks I liked and didn’t like. I’ll only discuss the first 12 rounds, as after that some people auto-drafted or took defenses and kickers (as many casual players are wont to do). My […]

Why Ameer Abdullah is a Big Sleeper Running Back for 2015

It was no surprise that the Detroit Lions allowed Reggie Bush to walk in free agency. Joique Bell did the heavy duty work and Theo Riddick proved himself just as effective in the passing game, averaging 5 catches for 53 yards in the 5 games that Bush missed. Despite having Bell and Riddick around, the […]

Running Back Sleepers You Need to Know in 2015

Is there any position in fantasy where a sleeper pays off more than at running back? While all your league-mates are scrambling to reach and overpay for their first and second running back, those who employ more value based draft strategies feed off of their leagues impatience and are rewarded with strong players at both wide receiver […]

Deep Sleeper: Tampa Bay Tight End Austin Seferian-Jenkins

As a rookie, Austin Seferian-Jenkins (ASJ for short) didn’t do a whole lot, but that shouldn’t surprise you. Tight ends are notorious for taking 2-3 years to start putting up relevant fantasy numbers. In the last five years we’ve only seen five rookie tight ends surpass the 500 yard mark and none had more than Tim […]

2015 Deep PPR Sleeper: Browns WR Andrew Hawkins

I’ll start this by saying that Andrew Hawkins is definitely exclusive to deeper leagues and PPR leagues. He provides some sneaky value and showed that last year right up to the point that target-hog Josh Gordon and poor excuse for a football player Johnny Manziel sapped his late season value. Prior to that, the 5’7” […]

Is Mike Wallace Ready to Return to WR1 Status in 2015?

People don’t like to use Mike Wallace’s time spent in Pittsburgh as a tool to project his first year with the Minnesota Vikings for the upcoming season and that’s totally fair—it was a while ago after all. Wallace last played for the Steelers in the 2012 season, catching 64 passes and eight touchdowns. He played […]

Three Sleeper Tight Ends to Target in Deeper Leagues

If you find yourself in a 14+ team league, or in a TE premium league (start 2 TEs or give 1.5 PPR to TEs only) it looks like a good year to wait on the position in the draft. There are a lot of guys outside the top ten which offer plenty of upside. If […]
