32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Titans

Once Ryan Tannehill became the starting QB for the Titans, the team was on a magic carpet ride to the AFC title game. During this ride, the Titans were one of the most productive offenses in fantasy. But can that success be duplicated in 2020, or will defenses be up to the challenge? Will the […]

Giants Considering Moving Back From No. 4 Overall?

New York Giants general manager Dave Gettleman is interested in moving back from fourth overall in the first round of this month's draft, but it's hard to say how "serious" he is without knowing if the team has had any offers. Because of teams desperate to land their QB of the future, the Giants are […]

LeSean McCoy Wants To Play For A Contender

Free-agent running back LeSean McCoy said that, "I want to go to a team that's a winning franchise." McCoy didn't factor into KC's offense in their postseason run on the way to a Super Bowl championship, but the veteran back did run the ball 101 times for 465 yards (4.6 yards per carry) and four […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Ravens

It was a record-setting season for Lamar Jackson in 2019, but will there be an encore in store in 2020? Can the Ravens offense evolve into a more balanced attack or will the fantasy value of this team continue to hinge on the running prowess of Jackson and company? Will the NFL Draft also welcome […]

Brandon Scherff Working On Long-Term Extension

Washington Redskins Pro Bowl guard Brandon Scherff, who already signed his franchise tender, is working toward a long-term extension with the team. The 28-year-old has been one of the better right guards in the league since the Redskins took him fifth overall in the 2015 draft, and he's started 65 games since then and made […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Seahawks

The run-based Seattle Seahawks showed a little pop in the passing game in 2019.

Let's find out in our latest edition of the NFL Draft […]

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook, who considers himself "the best back in the game," wants to stay in Minnesota for the long haul.

Buccaneers Have Faith In Ronald Jones

Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht said that, "We have a lot of faith in Ronald Jones II. We have more faith in him than we ever have." Jones had a dreadful rookie season in 2018, but he was much better last year in a timeshare with Peyton Barber, running the ball 172 times […]

Bills Think Devin Singletary Can Be A Workhorse

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary is at the top of the depth chart with Frank Gore gone, and general manager Brandon Beane thinks that Singletary can be the team's workhorse in the backfield if needed. Singletary averaged over 5.0 yards per carry last year but didn't become the lead running back until the second […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Saints

Even with an injury taking down Drew Brees for a stretch during the season, the Saints offense did not miss a beat. Along with the record-breaking performance of Michael Thomas, there was plenty of fantasy value to grab from this team. Will the NFL Draft also welcome in talent to further this team's potential? Let's […]

Veterans That May Be Impacted By The NFL Draft

Most of the fun fantasy-centered NFL Draft speculation so far has focused on who will go where, and what teams need offensively. But in this feature, we go deeper. How will potential rookie selections late this month affect players on existing rosters? This year’s class is very deep in top-level WRs, and we could see […]

Cardinals Want Depth Behind Kenyan Drake

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that the team would like to have three running backs sharing the load in 2020. "D.J. was banged up last year," Kingsbury said. "We think he has a good skill set. But that's an area that we'd like to have three. You saw we got to (using) a […]

Chiefs Agree With DeAndre Washington

The Kansas City Chiefs agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal with running back DeAndre Washington on Wednesday, according to a source.

Chargers High On Justin Jackson

The Los Angeles Chargers remain "very high on" running back Justin Jackson. Melvin Gordon is now playing for the Broncos, so there will be more opportunity for Jackson behind Austin Ekeler moving forward. Jackson, a seventh-round pick by the Bolts in 2018, has rushed 79 times for 406 yards (5.1 yards per carry) and two […]

Nyheim Hines Could Be More Involved In Offense

Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines is expected to get "plenty more action" in the offense this season, in the opinion of The Athletic's Zak Keefer. And that could translate into much more fantasy success with new quarterback Philip Rivers under center, a veteran signal-caller who isn't afraid to dump the ball off to his […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Patriots

It's the end of an era for the Patriots, as the team looks to move forward without Tom Brady. With their legend gone, how does this affect the fantasy value of those left on the roster? Will the NFL Draft also welcome in talent to further this team's potential? Let's find out in our latest […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Vikings

The Vikings made the playoffs in 2019 on the back of a stellar performance by Dalvin Cook. The question is whether he can stay healthy and repeat that performance in 2020. Also, can Kirk Cousins rebound in fantasy after being left for dead with his sparse production last year? Will the NFL Draft also welcome […]

Browns 2.0? A Cautionary Tale for the 2020 Arizona Cardinals

We all remember what happened last season in Cleveland. The excitement was there and so were the weapons. Or so we thought. As with anything in life, things do not always turn out the way we think they will. The team which is supposed to win doesn’t. The player who was supposed to make the […]

Panthers Have Discussed Extension For Christian McCaffrey

Carolina Panthers general manager Marty Hurney said that the team has "had internal discussions" about an extension for running back Christian McCaffrey. The stud running back is heading into the final year of his rookie deal, but the Panthers may wait and have him play on the fifth-year team option in 2021 before signing him […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Eagles

The Eagles lucked into the playoffs in 2019 by winning the worst division in football, the NFC East. But from a fantasy perspective, this team needs a lot of work. With injuries all around him, Carson Wentz struggled. It's clear that this offense is in need of a few more playmakers to maximize its fantasy […]

The King's Early 2020 One-Man Fantasy Football Mock Draft

I will be doing this one-man mock exercise more than once as news and player movement dictate changes. Here is my first crack at it for the 2020 offseason. I put myself in the draft chairs and minds of every owner in an advance look at the next season. With the stoppage of play in […]

Matt Breida Could Be Playing Elsewhere In 2020

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida didn't have much of a role on offense to end last season behind Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman. If Jerick McKinnon is actually healthy in 2020, he gives the 49ers a legitimate route-runner and third-down option out of the backfield. San Fran could be willing to trade Breida's […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predicitons for the Cowboys

The 2019 Dallas Cowboys fell well below expectations. With an extremely talented team, missing the playoffs is beyond inexcusable and led to changes in the coaching staff. But from a fantasy perspective, they still provided plenty of value. Will the NFL Draft also welcome in talent to further this team's potential?  Let's find out in […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons should once again be a hot-bed of fantasy production in 2020.
