Nick Mariano's PPR Draft Sleepers List for Fantasy Football - Samaje Perine, Rashee Rice, Jayden Reed, Tyjae Spears, more

The term "Sleeper" is thrown around more haphazardly than a Mitchell Trubisky out route, but there's no doubting its place in our fantasy lexicon. I do think that everyone that uses it then needs to define what it means within the context of the article. In my mind, we need to head outside of the […]

Top NFL Team Defense (DST) Targets for Fantasy Football Drafts - 49ers, Eagles, Bills, Saints and more

Defenses are not the main focus for most fantasy football players. However, having an elite defense can change the entire trajectory of your season.

NFL Rookie Avoids for 2023 Fantasy Football Dynasty Drafts - Quentin Johnston, Roschon Johnson, more

Rookies are extremely important in fantasy football. In dynasty leagues they ARE the draft and in re-draft leagues, they can be season-defining draft picks or waiver wire pick-ups.

Yahoo Undervalued, Overvalued Fantasy Football Draft Picks - Lamar Jackson, Raheem Mostert, Rashid Shaheed, Skyy Moore, more

Many fantasy football seasons are won and lost on draft day. Fantasy football isn't just about knowing the best players; rather, it is about identifying value at each draft position.

This Year's Fantasy Football League-Winning Quarterback Is...

What defines a league-winning quarterback? It's a QB who can not only outperform his ADP but also be consistent late in the season, especially throughout the fantasy playoff weeks.
