The King's Updated 2020 Fantasy Football Rankings (Premium Content)

Here are the latest fantasy football rankings in all formats, including PPR, Half PPR and non-PPR. In the case of the last category, I am not going to call it “standard” anymore, as non-PPR does not seem to be the  true scoring system used by most savvy players nowadays. The first order of business is […]

Falcons Sign Former First-Round Pick Darqueze Dennard

The Atlanta Falcons signed cornerback Darqueze Dennard on Thursday. The former first-round pick from the 2014 draft had previously agreed to a three-year contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the deal fell through after the two parties couldn't hammer out the final contract numbers. Dennard, who is from Georgia, will bring some much-needed depth to […]

Under-The-Radar RB Signings: Fantasy Risers or Fallers?

The 2020 NFL offseason has been a little tough to navigate given the lack of mini-camps and OTAs because of the pandemic.

ADP Variations: NFFC Overvalued and Undervalued

As you prepare for each draft, multiple factors are incorporated into your analysis of every selection.

Your draft planning will also […]

No Plan Yet For Todd Gurley's Practice Workload

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley is in "fantastic shape" according to head coach Dan Quinn, who spoke to reporters on Tuesday via a Zoom call. Quinn noted that there's no plan yet for Gurley's workload, but that he'd like to spend a couple weeks with the former All-Pro back before coming to a decision. […]

WR/TE Stat Analysis: Catch Rate and Drawn Pass Interference

When it comes to drafting stud wide receivers and tight ends, we all pursue the same stats: receptions, yards, and touchdowns. It makes sense. Those three stats are the ones that ultimately yield actual, tangible fantasy points in every fantasy league, no matter the format. The savviest fantasy GMs often focus on targets, as without […]

Calvin Ridley Ready To Explode In 2020?

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley could be due for a breakout season, according to CBS Sports' Heath Cummings. With the departure of Mohamed Sanu, Cummings indicated that even with star wideout Julio Jones on the field, Ridley was still on pace to compile 96 catches for 1,354 yards and 10 touchdowns before an abdominal injury ended his season […]

Dynasty Market Watch: NFC South

The NFC South has been full of fantasy talent for several years now. Some of the better players in the game reside in this division and are popular selections at the top of drafts.

Engel's Angles: The DK Metcalf Love Affair Is Real

Early ADP Variations: Yahoo's Overvalued and Undervalued Players

Every fantasy football platform is different. There are the obvious ways they differ -- the way their apps look, the different drafting interfaces, etc. -- but there are also less obvious ways they differ. One of those ways is how their rankings and ADP look. Because there's no such thing as a universal rankings order […]

Best Wide Receiver Stacks for 2020

Sometimes we're afraid of putting together players from the same team in our rosters, let alone weekly lineups. To a certain extent, that makes sense: the opportunities one gets will take from the opportunities the other could have gotten. Why limiting the fantasy upside of our team with two receivers playing in the same offense rather […]

Yardage Regression Candidates - Wide Receiver

While touchdowns are the most coveted play outcome for wide receivers in fantasy football, total receiving yards must be taken into serious consideration when deciding who to draft for the position. It is true that receivers have to work harder to rack up yards, and that they don't have an overly great value at only […]

Baltimore Ravens 2020 Fantasy Outlook

The Baltimore Ravens arrived last season. They ran roughshod over teams with a brutal and historic rushing attack en route to a 14-2 record and the top seed in the AFC. They handed an undefeated Patriots squad their first loss and QB Lamar Jackson silenced doubters by putting up fantastic, record numbers. Unfortunately, the Ravens […]

Stud Running Backs You Should Worry About in 2020

The 2020 fantasy football season is going to be unlike any other. With 2020 being such a volatile year and knowing the risks of playing fantasy in a year where any player could be shut down for weeks if they test positive for COVID, I am looking to take as few risks as possible early […]

Target Regression Candidates - Wide Receiver

I don't know how many times I've written this during the past few weeks, but here we go again: no matter how good a pass-catcher is, if he's not targeted often he will have no way to rack up fantasy points. With opportunities come chances to score points. Without them, catches are literally out of […]
