This Unpopular Tactic in FFPC Best Ball Drafts Can Spike Win Rates
One of the best things about drafting in FFPC leagues is the tight end premium.

Kenny Golladay to the Giants - Fantasy Football Impact
It was no holiday for the fantasy football players who had Kenny Golladay on their rosters in 2020. After posting back-to-back 1,000-yard years and entering the season as a top-10 fantasy wide receiver on many if not most cheat sheets, Golladay’s injury-riddled season ruined the championship dreams of many fantasy general managers. Hip and hamstring... Read More

He signed a one-year, $7... Read More
Curtis Samuel to Washington: Fantasy Impact
It was clear to everyone that the Washington Football Team was a disaster on offense last season. Despite the lack of talent, a lot of this had to do with their rotating door at the QB position. From Kyle Allen to Dwayne Haskins and Alex Smith to Tayler Heinicke, the list was long and not... Read More

Will Fuller to Dolphins - Fantasy Impact
The Miami Dolphins were a surprise playoff contender in 2020 largely on the strength of their defense and +9 turnover margin. They couldn't quite reach the postseason, however, due to a lack of dynamism in the offense. The Fins' pass offense ranked 20th in the league and the team flip-flopped between veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick and... Read More
A.J. Green to Arizona - Fantasy Impact
It seems strange that the Cardinals, who already have one old wide receiver in Larry Fitzgerald, would bring in another in A.J. Green. The notion of Fitz, Green, and DeAndre Hopkins all part of the same wide receiver corps is pretty awesome given their names and their all-time stature, but also less exciting when you... Read More
Corey Davis to Jets - Fantasy Impact
It would be easy to say Corey Davis is going to be a great number one receiver in New York. It would also be a lie. The truth is, we do not know yet. Not just because of his up-and-down career but also due to the question at the quarterback position for the 2021 season.... Read More

After weeks of speculation about a Russell Wilson trade, the Chicago Bears finally made their move for a new starting QB on Tuesday, signing Andy Dalton to a one-year deal. Exciting, huh?

After losing Golden Tate and making a heavy pursuit for Kenny Golladay, the Giants signed John Ross to a one-year $2.5 million deal on Tuesday. He will provide much-needed depth to a depleted wide receiver corps. Since it’s a one-year deal, the Giants will have limited risk invested into Ross. It could be easy to forget... Read More

The 2020 fantasy football season ended nearly three months ago, which means it's been about three months since anything meaningful happened in the NFL (aside from a couple of trades).

Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith To New England - Fantasy Impact
