NFL Preseason and Training Camp Risers
Training camp presents fantasy football drafters with an overwhelming amount of praise at times. By now you've likely heard that everyone is in the best shape of their life, every single rookie is expected to play a big role, and everyone is shaping up to be a steal in drafts.

David Montgomery Is Still Being Slept On
It’s 2021 and running backs could very well be the most difficult position in fantasy football to solve on your roster. 10 years ago, you could just draft two running backs in the first two rounds no matter who it was, and barring injuries, you were in the clear. Now, with the rise in production... Read More
D.J. Chark is the Jaguars Receiver You Want
Why is D.J. Chark not receiving more fantasy love? Not only is he not receiving the kind of fanfare he should be, but there are some who believe Laviska Shenault Jr. will be the Jaguars' No. 1 wide receiver in 2021. That's certainly a possibility, but fantasy managers need to remember just how good Chark... Read More
Henry Ruggs III - 2021 Breakout Candidate
Henry Ruggs III was the first receiver picked in the 2020 draft to the surprise of many.

Going into year two, Ruggs is ready to take on a bigger role, and... Read More
Laviska Shenault Jr. – 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper
The Jacksonville Jaguars are in a lot better shape heading into the 2021 NFL season than they were at the end of the 2020 season, and that bodes well for the fantasy futures of their skill-position players. Laviska Shenault Jr. was selected in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Jaguars because... Read More
Jalen Reagor – 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper
Jalen Reagor did not show fantasy football general managers much in 2020, but the same will not hold true in 2021. The Philadelphia Eagles’ former first-round pick was supposed to kickstart their pass-catching corps and give fantasy footballers a speedy slot receiver who could be useful in standard and dynasty leagues. Instead, Reagor gave fantasy... Read More
Gerald Everett - 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper
Gerald Everett was stuck in a tight end timeshare as part of an offense whose passing attack rarely focused on its tight ends. Not anymore. Everett took his talents to the Seattle Seahawks as soon as he could leave the Los Angeles Rams this offseason. He is now a multimillionaire member of Russell Wilson’s receiving... Read More
Irv Smith Jr. Is the Sleeper TE to Target
After a dominant junior season at Alabama in 2018, the Minnesota Vikings made Irv Smith Jr. the 50th overall pick in the 2019 draft, and the draft capital attached to his name brought lofty expectations. Smith's talent was evident when he ran a 4.63 40-yard-dash at the 2019 NFL Combine, second among top tight end... Read More

Sony Michel to Rams - Fantasy Impact
The Los Angeles Rams struck a deal to acquire Patriots RB Sony Michel this past week, a move that made sense for both sides. On the Rams’ side, they lost starting RB Cam Akers to an Achilles injury, which will cause him to miss 2021. For the Pats, they have a stable of backs who... Read More
