Kevin Harvick Expects More from Car at Richmond

Kevin Harvick has gotten more out of his Stewart-Haas Racing car than most could have expected. Another top five at Darlington last week helped his "playoff chase" hopes. Richmond is another track where Harvick typically performs well. Harvick enjoys an 8.17 average finish and five top-ten results in his last six races. Most are surprised […]

Kurt Busch May Slide Back Some at Richmond

Kurt Busch once had some very good runs on this track but has not in some time. He has finished 11th or worse in his last six races on the short Richmond course. The Chip Ganassi Racing driver may even lead a few laps but this may be one of those races where the long-run […]

Kyle Larson Starts from Pole at Richmond

Elijah Moore Should Produce WR3 Value

New York Jets wide receiver Elijah Moore will be making his NFL debut in Week 1 versus the Carolina Panthers. The second round pick from this year's draft should see plenty of targets this season. He could get involved right away with Jamison Crowder (COVID-19) out and Keelan Cole (knee) questionable for Week 1. The […]

Corey Davis Has Solid Upside For Week 1

New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis will likely end up with the most fantasy value out of anyone on this roster this season. Davis is coming off a season where he produced 65 receptions, 984 yards, and five touchdowns. Now, he'll be the main focus with Jamison Crowder (COVID-19) out and Keelan Cole (knee) […]

Michael Carter Worth Stashing, Not Starting Versus Panthers

New York Jets running back Michael Carter will make his NFL debut against the Carolina Panthers in Week 1. However, he'll likely be stuck in a three-back committee to open the season.

Tevin Coleman Named Lead Back For Opener

New York Jets running back Tevin Coleman was recently named the lead back for their matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 1.
