Lofty Expectations For Saquon Barkley With The Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles have a new offensive coordinator this year in Kellen Moore and will have a new bell-cow running back in Saquon Barkley.

Should I Draft Jonathon Brooks, Blake Corum, Trey Benson for Fantasy Football? RB Outlooks for 2024

The 2024 NFL Draft class wasn't loaded with running back talent, but Jonathon Brooks, Blake Corum, and Trey Benson were the first three ball carriers off the board, and they each have intriguing fantasy football upside.

When Is Shane Baz Getting Called Up? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 15 Update)

It has been a long road to recovery for Tampa Bay Rays' prospect Shane Baz. He last pitched in the big leagues on July 10, 2022, after undergoing season-ending Tommy John surgery in September of that year. That elbow injury also caused him to miss the entire 2023 campaign. Baz was then making good progress this […]

Kwity Paye Aiming For Double-Digit Sacks

Indianapolis Colts defensive end Kwity Paye has not been an ultra-productive sack artist since entering the league as the No. 21 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Michigan, but his goal is to reach at least double-digit sacks in 2024. "I had (4.0) sacks as a rookie, (6.0) as a sophomore, and […]

Daniel Jones Likely In Make-Or-Break Year

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has not lived up to his status as the No. 6 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. Although he has a playoff win under his belt from the 2022 campaign, the rest of his career has been underwhelming. The Duke alum has thrown for 12,512 yards, 62 touchdowns, […]

Eric Cole Looks To Keep Momentum At John Deere

Eric Cole had missed four of his last six cuts heading to Detroit last week when he finally broke through to place T6 while gaining strokes in all areas of his game. 2024 looked like a breakthrough season for the 36-year-old, as he came out with six top-21 finishes through his first nine events, but […]

Predicting All First-Time 1,000-Yard Rushers in 2024 - NFL Fantasy Football Outlook
