Navigating the Dalvin Cook Holdout
On June 9, 2020, Adam Schefter reported that Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook plans to holdout from training camp unless he receives a "reasonable" deal. Cook is a young, ascending running back in this league and while he's very important to the success of the Vikings, he doesn't have much leverage. Player holdouts are going […]
Evan Engram Given Generous Fantasy Ranking
New York Giants tight end Evan Engram is anticipated to end 2020 as the sixth-best fantasy option at the position, according to ESPN. While the 25-year-old does have the potential to make some noise on the fantasy end, he will need to remain healthy throughout the year, something that has been an issue over the […]
Daniel Jones Expected To Produce In 2020
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones could be in store for a potential breakout, at least according to some at ESPN, due to his likely natural progression relating to his accuracy in addition to having some solid options on the offensive end. The sophomore signal-caller appeared in 13 games in 2019 after taking over for […]
Experts Predict Solid Year For Saquon Barkley
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley has arguably a higher outlook heading into 2020 than he has had at any point throughout his tenure in the league thus far.

Why Joe Burrow Will Be a Top-10 Fantasy Quarterback
The prevailing strategy that has taken over fantasy football is to wait on quarterback. Given the depth of the position, many fantasy players are focused on addressing other positions on their roster before selecting their QB1. This strategy allows you to construct a roster filled with depth at wide receiver and running back. If you’re […]

The Fantasy Fallacy of Running Back Committees
Some of the scariest words a fantasy owner can hear is that their running back is now part of a committee (RBBC). However, people rarely look beyond this - failing to examine what this truly means, and how it impacts a player’s value. In simple terms, an RBBC is defined as having multiple running backs […]
Daniel Jones Didn't Crumble Under Pressure
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones held up quite well under pressure behind a porous offensive line in his rookie season. His numbers under pressure were comparable to Falcons QB Matt Ryan, which is incredibly impressive. Jones had an 8:6 touchdown-to-interception ratio and nearly 1,000 passing yards while under pressure in 2019. The 23-year-old from […]
Daniel Jones Working To Correct Fumbling Issues
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones flashed big potential in his rookie season but was plagued by one key issue: He led the NFL with 18 fumbles.

Center Will Be A Position To Watch For Giants During Camp
The New York Giants have fewer concerns on the offensive line than most teams but will enter training camp with one glaring question mark, the man snapping to franchise quarterback Daniel Jones. Experience favors 27-year-old Spencer Pulley, who has started 26 NFL games, including nine with New York in 2018. Other candidates include the 6-foot-6, 318-pound […]

The Indianapolis Colts shook the fantasy football world in the 2020 NFL Draft when they moved up three spots to 41 overall in the second-round to select three-time All-American Wisconsin Badgers running back Jonathan Taylor.

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley had planned on returning to Penn State, his alma mater, to serve as a coach for the team during spring ball before its cancellation due to COVID-19.

Tight End PPR Rankings, Tiers & Analysis
Fantasy football players probably hope the 2020 NFL season is better for tight ends than the 2019 season was. 2018 was arguably the greatest year for tight ends in the history of the NFL and fantasy football thanks to Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz setting the single-season record for receptions and San Francisco’s George Kittle setting the […]
