With about a week to go […]

Kaleb McGary To Play In Finale

Atlanta Falcons offensive tackle Kaleb McGary (heart) will play in the preseason finale Thursday. McGary has not played this preseason after recovering from a cardiac-ablation procedure.

How to Avoid the "My Guys" Trap

Have you ever sat alone in a dark room and addressed your perception versus reality problem? The problem I’m referring to, naturally, is your love for certain fantasy players and lack of recognition for others. Have you mock drafted and paid attention to the guys with higher ranks that you just gloss over until your […]

Shaking the “Sleeper” Myth and Using Your Late Picks Wisely

I’m an 80s baby, so, like most of my generation, The Princess Bride played a major role in my early pop-culture consciousness. While most people remember the hulking physique of Andre The Giant or the crowd-pleasing chant of Inigo Montoya (“Hello…”), one part that stuck with me was Inigo’s calm criticism of his boss’ use […]

We're entering the peak of fantasy football draft season.

Running Back Standard Rankings for Fantasy Football Drafts

Running backs don’t matter. This may or may not be true in the real NFL but in fantasy, it surely isn’t the case. If it were the case, why are the top four consensus players all at the position? It is always great to have one of the top guys at the position. But if […]

Kaleb McGary Returns

Atlanta Falcons offensive tackle Kaleb McGary (heart) returned to practice Sunday after recovering from a cardiac ablation procedure. McGary, the team's first-round pick, could start at right tackle. He is a good run blocker, but he doesn't have great lateral quickness to contain elite edge rushers. Running back Devonta Freeman would benefit from a healthy […]

Navigating Late-Round Tight Ends

When should I draft a tight end? This is one of the questions in fantasy football that gets the biggest split of answers. There is the clear cut tier of Travis Kelce (who you could argue is in a tier of his own), Zach Ertz and George Kittle, but their ADPs are high. With all […]

Tight End PPR Rankings for Fantasy Football Drafts

Tight ends are tricky in fantasy football. Due to the top-heavy nature of the position, it is typically best to either land one of the top few or to wait until the end of the draft to find one. An elite TE like Rob Gronkowski in years past can elevate your roster with his performances […]

2019 Yardage Regression Candidates - Wide Receivers

While touchdowns are the most coveted play outcome for wide receivers in fantasy football (they award six points to the scorer), 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 […]

Deeper Dynasty Sleepers to Stash (Premium Content)

Sleepers come in all shapes and sizes in fantasy football. It could be the undrafted free agent that teams passed over on draft day. It could be a third-string RB that suddenly ascends to relevance. It could be a veteran receiver that finally finds a chance to shine. Or it could be that player from […]

Kenjon Barner To Be Main Kick Returner

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said that running back Kenjon Barner will "lead the way for us" at the return position. It doesn't mean much unless you're in a deep league that counts return yardage. Barner, 30, played in nine games with the Patriots and Panthers last year and ran the ball just 19 […]

Second-Year Players That Will Surge

Rookie players don't always pan out in the NFL and in fantasy football. Sometimes it takes a great landing spot or an injury for a rookie to become relevant early on. This list includes some second-year players that either disappointed in 2018 or did okay, but look to take a step forward in 2019. The […]
