2016 Fantasy Football Sleeper - Wide Receiver Chris Hogan

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (8/9/16): MLB DFS Advice

Early Round QB - How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Just Pick Aaron Rodgers

2016 Fantasy Football Sleeper - C.J. Prosise

Bias. It's a prejudice best left out of fantasy sports, yet I couldn't help but feel it when the Seattle Seahawks drafted C.J. Prosise. The biggest reason?
