Denver Receivers Are Draft Steals with Joe Flacco at the Helm
Every year, there's at least one offense in fantasy football that drafters avoid like the plague. Last year it was the much-maligned Jets, with rookie QB Sam Darnold.

Around the League Pop Quiz: NFC South
I've been a little jaded writing some of these articles, not for any reason other than wondering if the creeping feeling of "everyone is listening to/writing all of the same advice" was starting to creep in a little heavier.

Don't Stop Believing in Jordan Reed
Trying to find value is important in any fantasy draft, but there are some positions where it is more important than others. Tight end is one of those positions where finding a sleeper can be the biggest differentiator.

In 2019, the expectations are high for the Baltimore Ravens as they finished 2018 with 2,441 rushing yards, which was good for second in the league.

How to Avoid the "My Guys" Trap
Have you ever sat alone in a dark room and addressed your perception versus reality problem?
