2022 Running Back Stat Busts - Missed Tackles Forced

Plunging into the world of football analytics is without question a great way to find fantasy sleepers for the coming season. Especially in the case of running backs, considering overall elusiveness is arguably the best way to determine how good (or bad) a player's performance was. And that's what this is all about. I will […]

Darious Williams Expected To Join Jaguars

Former Los Angeles Rams cornerback Darious Williams is expected to finalize a three-year, $39 million deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to a source. Williams, 29, should be a huge boost to Jacksonville's suspect secondary. Williams is a much better real-life player than a fantasy one, although he did have a career-high 71 tackles (60 […]

Kevin Kisner A Great Course Fit

Kevin Kisner's fourth-place finish at The Players Championship was courtesy of his field-best, around-the-green game. He also put forward a top-10 putting performance that masked another below-average approach week. Positive ball-striking weeks are more of a bonus than an expectation for the short hitter. Kisner's strengths lie on and around the green, which will be […]

Artie Burns Going To The Seahawks

Former Chicago Bears cornerback Artie Burns is joining the Seattle Seahawks on a one-year, $2 million deal, according to his agents. In his first year with the Bears in 2021, Burns played in 11 games (six starts) and finished with 23 tackles (19 solo) and six passes defensed. The 26-year-old was a former first-round pick […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/16/22)

Well, I knew yesterday's slate was tough or maybe I just took the hard road by betting on two underdogs who promptly went out and both got throttled at home. But I caught yet another bad beat when Detroit ruled out their best offensive player Cade Cunningham and then finished with 99 points when I […]

Terrance Mitchell Signs With Patriots

Former Houston Texans cornerback Terrance Mitchell signed a one-year, $3 million deal with the New England Patriots on Wednesday, according to a source. Mitchell has made 29 starts the last two seasons with the Cleveland Browns and Texans, and he finished last year with 60 tackles (45 solo), one interception 10 passes defensed and three […]

Giants Receiving Calls On James Bradberry

NFL teams with cornerback needs have been inquiring about New York Giants cornerback James Bradberry. The Giants have been reluctant to part with him without compensation, but $2 million of his $13.4 million salary becomes guaranteed at 4 p.m. ET on Wednesday. Either the Giants will find a trade partner on Wednesday, or they will […]

Raiders To Release Carl Nassib

The Las Vegas Raiders will designate defensive end Carl Nassib as a post-June 1 release, which will save the team $8 million against the 2022 salary cap, according to a source.

Bilal Nichols Getting A Two-Year Deal From Raiders

Former Chicago Bears defensive tackle Bilal Nichols is getting a two-year, $11 million deal from the Las Vegas Raiders on Wednesday, according to sources. The deal comes with $9 million guaranteed. Nichols has started 49 of the 60 games he's played in in his first four NFL seasons with the Bears after they selected him […]

Jason Day To Lean On Short Game

Jason Day has the short game to be competitive at Innisbrook. After a missed cut at The Players in very testing and lopsided conditions, that result should not be taken too seriously. Compared to TPC Sawgrass with less water around Innisbrook, it should not punish errant approach shots as severely. Day's weakness is his iron […]

Yankees Discussing Sean Manaea, Frankie Montas

The New York Yankees are among the teams talking to the Oakland Athletics about star young pitchers Sean Manaea and Frankie Montas, according to sources familiar with the situation. In addition to the Yankees, the Minnesota Twins and Chicago White Sox have discussed the two starting pitchers. The A's are clearly rebuilding after already trading […]

Shane Greene Returns To Dodgers On Minors Deal

The Los Angeles Dodgers re-signed relief pitcher Shane Greene to a minor league deal on Wednesday. Greene started the 2021 season with the Atlanta Braves but finished things off with the Dodgers.

Steven Brault Joining The Cubs

Free-agent pitcher Steven Brault has signed an undisclosed deal with the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday, according to sources familiar with the situation. Brault will give the Cubs some starting rotation insurance after it was announced on Tuesday that Adbert Alzolay (lat) will miss at least two months with a lat strain. The 29-year-old left-hander should […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. Having Surgery Wednesday

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. (wrist) is undergoing surgery on his fractured left wrist on Wednesday. The 23-year-old superstar shortstop is expected to need up to three months to recover from the injury that was initially sustained in the offseason when he crashed his motorcycle. The Padres are expected to use Ha-Seong Kim […]

Eddie Rosario Returns To Braves On Two-Year Deal

He finished with a .271/.330/.573 […]

The New York Jets tendered restricted free-agent kicker Eddy Pineiro for one year at $2.433 million on Wednesday, according to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus.

The Cleveland Browns signed Pro Bowl return man and wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. to a three-year deal worth up to $13.8 million on Wednesday, according to a source.

Breshad Perriman Returning To Buccaneers

Free-agent wide receiver Breshad Perriman is returning to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on an undisclosed one-year deal, according to his agents. The Buccaneers have been able to easily re-sign a lot of their own once quarterback Tom Brady announced he was coming back after a short retirement. Perriman missed the team's playoff loss with an […]

Browns Will Release Austin Hooper

The Cleveland Browns plan to release tight end Austin Hooper as a post-June 1 designation, according to a source. The 27-year-old dual-threat tight end and two-time Pro Bowler will now be on the open market. It makes perfect sense after the Browns placed the franchise tag on fellow tight end David Njoku. Hooper's two-year, $42 […]

Falcons Meeting With Deshaun Watson Wednesday

The Atlanta Falcons will meet with Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson on Wednesday, the fourth meeting for a team that has extended a trade offer for Watson. In addition to the Falcons, the New Orleans Saints, Carolina Panthers and Cleveland Browns are the others. The Falcons have jumped into the mix on Watson late, and […]

Tucker Barnhart To Switch Hit Again

Detroit Tigers catcher Tucker Barnhart has decided to pick up switch-hitting again this year after quitting two years ago. Barnhart has hit exclusively from the left side the last two seasons.

The Toronto Blue Jays have spoken to the Cleveland Guardians about a trade for third baseman Jose Ramirez, with the idea of playing him at second base, according to sources. Other teams are showing interest in Ramirez as well, but the Guardians remain unlikely to move him. He's under team control for two more seasons […]

Christiaan Bezuidenhout Flying Under The Radar

Christiaan Bezuidenhout took the week off last week. Lucky for him, he did not have to withstand the grueling weather that took place at The Players Championship. Bezuidenhout is currently flying under the radar. He has not played this event before but should fit nicely. He is good around the greens and an excellent Bermuda […]

Keone Kela Joins The Diamondbacks

Free-agent relief pitcher Keone Kela agreed to a minor league deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday, according to a source familiar with the situation. Kela had Tommy John surgery on his right elbow in May of last year, so he won't be ready to pitch until around midseason for the D-backs. The 28-year-old right-hander […]
