Which Rookie QB Can Turn Their Franchise Around?

Last Thursday, the annual NFL Draft happened in Cleveland, but you know this already, reader. And you also know that the Jaguars drafted Trevor Lawrence with the No. 1 overall pick. You also know that five quarterbacks were taken in the first round. But, will any of those players be able to turn around the […]

NFL Draft Reaction - QB ADP Fallers

We've been examining some of the top ADP risers following the outcomes of the 2021 NFL Draft, including a look at RB Risers, WR Risers, TE Risers, and QB Risers. We now shift to the other side of the equation with some declining values. We've already covered WR Fallers and TE Fallers, so now it's time to move to quarterbacks. Low […]

Dolphins Sign Jason McCourty

The Miami Dolphins signed veteran free-agent cornerback Jason McCourty to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday, according to a source. The 12-year veteran will reunite with head coach Brian Flores after the two worked together with the New England Patriots. The 33-year-old McCourty will give Miami a veteran presence in the secondary and is expected […]

Late-Round Rookie RB Targets for FFPC Best Ball

The NFL Draft has officially concluded, and we've celebrated and wept as new player values were realized (Myles Gaskin) while others feel as if they've faded into the abyss (James Robinson). In regards to rookies, a rather underwhelming draft class led to several running backs falling to the much later rounds or going undrafted altogether. […]

Dolphins Releasing Bobby McCain

The Miami Dolphins informed team captain and starting safety Bobby McCain that they are releasing him on Thursday, according to a source. McCain, who was drafted in the fifth round in 2015 out of Memphis, grew into a dependable member of Miami's secondary. He signed a contract extension in 2018, but his release was a […]

Waste of Talent: Rookies in Bad Landing Spots

The days after the NFL Draft are the ultimate hype festival. It's like going to SXSW and thinking every band you see in a random bar is going to be the next big thing. Then you get home, and within a month, you've forgotten the names of over half of those bands. That's the draft. […]

NFL Draft Reaction - RB ADP Risers

We've already looked at QB ADP Risers and TE ADP Risers following the 2021 NFL Draft. Now, let's look at the most heavily-scrutinized position of all - running back. By now, with free agency and the draft finalized and just a few players left to be signed, it makes sense to look at how ADPs are […]

2021 NFL Draft Review - AFC South

Hello and welcome to the first 2021 installment of my annual NFL Draft Review. Every year after the draft, I write a way-too-long review of each team’s draft. The purpose of this draft review is to give predictions for the careers of each team’s drafted players.  The vast majority of 4th-7th round picks don't amount to […]

Malik Hooker Visiting With Dolphins

Former Indianapolis Colts first-round safety Malik Hooker is visiting with the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday, according to a source. Hooker has yet to play a full season in the NFL after being selected 15th overall out of Ohio State in 2017. The 25-year-old played in only two games last year before he tore his Achilles […]

Immediate Impact: NFL Rookies Who Could Thrive in Redraft

Now that the draft is over, it’s time to evaluate the prospects again—this time in terms of a fantasy perspective. While many players who were selected by their respective teams could make an impact, it may not be right away. Nevertheless, fantasy managers should only be drafting players who they feel can make an impact […]

They Took Who??? The Most Confusing NFL Draft Picks

Every year, the NFL holds a draft, and every year during that draft, 32 NFL teams make decisions that will positively impact the team going forward. But every year, some teams also make decisions that are...confusing. Confounding. Puzzling. Whatever adjective you want to use, teams make decisions that leave us, the outsiders watching the draft, […]

Instant Reaction: 2021 NFL Draft Rounds 4-7 Winners/Losers

The 2021 NFL Draft finished up on Saturday, with the final four rounds taking place. And while those rounds didn't feature the big names like No. 1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence, they did feature a bunch of other names! And many of those names will have an impact on the fantasy football landscape moving forward. […]

Dolphins Take Running Back Gerrid Doaks

With the 244th pick of the 2021 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins have selected Cincinnati running back Gerrid Doaks. Miami was a team that many thought would go running back earlier, but it appears they're good with rolling into 2021 with Myles Gaskin as the starter. Doaks was a surprising choice as he didn't come […]

Instant Reaction: 2021 NFL Draft Round 1 Winners/Losers

The 2021 NFL Draft started on Thursday night and, just like we all expected for months (years?), Trevor Lawrence was the first overall pick. And after that, the draft didn't really get as wild as many expected it would be, though there were still some surprises. We're through one round of the draft now, which […]

Dolphins Draft Hunter Long

With the 81st pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins have selected Boston College tight end Hunter Long. Long had 57 catches for 685 yards and five touchdowns last season and was one of the top receiving tight ends in college football. But the Dolphins already have Mike Gesicki at tight end, making […]

Miami Dolphins Draft Liam Eichenberg

With the 42nd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins have selected Notre Dame offensive tackle Liam Eichenberg. Tackle is a definite position of need for the Dolphins, who passed on taking one of the elite ones in the first round but who grab a guy who was a solid protector for the […]

Jaelan Phillips Taken At No. 18 By Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins selected University of Miami edge rusher Jaelan Phillips with the No. 18 overall pick in the first round of the 2021 NFL draft on Thursday night. If Phillips can just avoid injuries, this could be a home run pick for the Dolphins defense. The pass-rusher won't overwhelm offensive linemen with his pure […]

Dolphins Select Jaylen Waddle At No. 6

The Miami Dolphins selected Alabama wide receiver Jaylen Waddle with the No. 6 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. Although Waddle's first few years at the collegiate level were met with mixed reviews, he appeared to be on his way to being one of the most efficient receivers in this past season. However, an […]

Final 2021 NFL Mock Draft - Round 1

The 2021 NFL Draft is finally here and rumors continue to swirl. We still don't know which QB the 49ers are taking at No. 3 and whether or not the Falcons will go QB at No. 4, trade down, or go with Kyle Pitts. From there, a handful of quality offensive players expect to be […]
