Getting to Know First-Round Picks in the 2021 NFL Draft

The fantasy football landscape is always changing, but perhaps the aspect that has changed most in recent years is with rookies. In previous years, there was definitely analysis about the incoming class of rookies before the NFL draft, but much of the talk for fantasy would occur after the NFL Draft, once all the landing […]

James Conner to Cardinals - Fantasy Impact

Kenyan Drake signing with the Raiders back in March left a gaping hole in the Cardinals' backfield. That includes a whopping 239 rush attempts vacated, but with Chase Edmonds seemingly much better in a complementary role, it was inevitable the Cardinals would either sign a veteran or take a running back in the 2021 NFL […]

Best-Ball Pre-Draft Values - Tight End

With just a couple of weeks left before the NFL Draft, it might be tempting to take a wait-and-see approach to best-ball leagues, mocks, or fantasy football activity in general.

With that recent change to the Bears offense, […]

Early 2021 Sleepers and Draft Targets - Tight End

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. For those unfamiliar, TE-premium scoring gives 1.5 PPR to TEs compared to the 1.0 PPR every other player on the roster receives per reception. While it may seem like a subtle edge, it's one that can work wonders when exploited properly.

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.

Hip and hamstring […]
