DraftKings' night slates often feature the marquee prime-time matchups in a standalone slate. FanDuel adds them all to the main slate and leaves off other good games in the afternoon. DraftKings setting up the slates like this is part of the reason that I play almost exclusively on DK now. Most of the good games […]

The Pro Football Hall of Fame has made sweeping changes to its selection process that include a significant reduction in the number of selectors and the elimination of the separate Seniors category, according to Jeff Legwold of ESPN.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray has a much stronger group of pass-catchers around him after his final season in Arizona fell apart. A foot injury limited Murray to five games in 2025, but Minnesota named him the starter on Aug. 11 after his competition with J.J. McCarthy. The job comes with Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison […]

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love hasn't been asked to throw nearly as much the past two seasons, but that could change with Josh Jacobs unavailable. Love averaged just 28.8 pass attempts per game across 2024 and 2025 after throwing 579 times in his first full season as the starter in 2023. He still put […]

Every year, only a few players end up becoming legit difference-makers in the fantasy football season. Not to say sleepers and late-round picks don’t matter, but they don’t move the needle as much as we make them out to.

We've all heard the same old time-tested fantasy adages before -- "Draft your guys," "Just pick good players on good teams," and my personal favorite, "ADP is comprised mostly by losers." While these macro strategies will generally set you on the right path directionally, not nearly enough focus goes toward a positive start. It's important […]

We're in the heart of draft season right now. Most fantasy football drafts will happen this week, so it's the perfect time for me to highlight my All-Breakout team.

Few players can earn the title of "league-winner" in fantasy football, but that select group will be the ones to crown royalty. Sometimes it boils down to investing in a scary health situation, pulling up a key rookie, or reading into a new offensive environment (coaching, talent, scheduling, etc.) that others haven't adjusted enough for. […]

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence had an impressive 2025 season, but he could take yet another step forward with a very strong supporting cast at his disposal in 2026. Lawrence has a stacked wide receiver room featuring Brian Thomas Jr., Jakobi Meyers, Parker Washington, and (sometimes) Travis Hunter. Meanwhile, tight end Brenton Strange is expected […]

2025 Super Bowl-winning quarterback Sam Darnold enters his second season with the Seattle Seahawks with a chance to emerge as a high-end QB2, alongside star wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the emergence of Rashid Shaheed, with a full offseason under his belt to build chemistry with Darnold.

Surtain talked about the growth in Nix and how he believes he'll take another step forward this upcoming season. He continued by saying Nix can bring all the guys together and that […]

No preseason is complete without going on the record with your favorite players for the upcoming season. Last year I had a few nice hits with Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Warren having big seasons, but I also whiffed on Bucky Irving and Jalen Hurts. I'm getting sucked back in on Bucky this year, but he's […]
