Wing-Clipped: Managing the Eagles Wide Receivers

What seems to be an on-going joke around the NFL in recent seasons is the health status or lack thereof regarding the Philadelphia Eagles receiving corps. One person who isn't laughing: Carson Wentz. The often-injured quarterback has been dealing with a rash of injuries to his playmakers, limiting the weapons at his disposal. You have to […]

Terry McLaurin (WR, WAS) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~44 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~60 ANALYSIS: Terry McLaurin proved in 2019 that he's capable of overcoming poor quarterback play and an all-around unfavorable surrounding environment to put up numbers in fantasy football. That's the good news. The bad news is that his QB situation still looks frightening on paper heading into 2020, with […]

Updated Running Back Draft Rankings - Standard Scoring (Non-PPR)

The NFL might be a quarterback-driven, pass-first league these days, but you are not going to win a fantasy football league without a decent running back corps. Even though more NFL teams are going with a running-back-by-committee philosophy rather than relying on a running back to be a three-down workhorse, fantasy rosters have to be […]

Darius Slayton (WR, NYG) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~97 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~115 ANALYSIS: What about Darius Slayton rookie season!? The freshman didn't miss a beat while playing under Daniel Jones (which, I mean...) and finished the year with 170 PPR points to the tune of 740 yards on just 48 receptions (15.4 YPR!) while scoring a monster 8 touchdowns. Hard […]

Jalen Richard (RB, LV) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: The Raiders re-signed Jalen Richard to a two-year, $7 million extension in the offseason. Although some might see it as Las Vegas valuing Richard as running back depth, it might speak more to their concerns over whether Josh Jacobs can take the next step as a […]

Larry Fitzgerald (WR, ARI) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald will return for his 17th season in the league. The veteran was relatively productive in 2019 despite his advanced NFL age of 36, finishing the year with 75 catches (26th overall) for 804 yards and four touchdowns. The Cardinals have added […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/3/20) - MLB DFS Lineups

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (9/3/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Boom or Bust WR Predictions: Brandin Cooks, DeVante Parker, Calvin Ridley

There is a tremendous amount of depth at the wide receiver position in fantasy football this season. At the same time, the trend of NFL teams using the running back by committee approach is making it harder and harder to find a bell-cow running back these days. Consequently, most football players have justifiably abandoned the […]

San Francisco 49ers Defense (D/ST, SF) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

CURRENT ADP: Rd. 16.3 (2nd D/ST) ANALYSIS: This pick should be no surprise, as it is the second-most-expensive among D/ST. But if you can get to the last rounds with the unit available you better get it. The 49ers rode a ball-hawking and dominant defense to the Super Bowl last year and it’s hard to point […]

Cincinnati Bengals Defense (D/ST, CIN) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

CURRENT ADP: Rd. 45.8 (22nd D/ST) ANALYSIS: The Bengals immediately addressed the loss of Kirkpatrick and Dennard by adding two intriguing options at cornerback in the offseason in Trae Waynes and Mackensie Alexander. These are cheaper options to be sure, and they may not represent a huge downgrade in talent. William Jackson III could return to […]
