Colorado wide receiver/cornerback prospect Travis Hunter is a polarizing player to discuss, mainly because... well, we've never really seen anything like him before.

Iowa State Cyclones wide receiver Jaylin Noel has deservedly earned some hype in dynasty fantasy football circles heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, but it's not nearly enough.

Best Ball Targets For 2025 Fantasy Football: 4 Draft Values
Second-year breakouts are very common in the NFL. While some players have great rookie seasons and get off to running starts, plenty have ceilings that they haven't reached and need time to develop.

Dynasty Fantasy Football Rookie Draft Guide: Strategy and Tips (2025)
A lot of rookie draft guides look pretty similar. Draft positions of need, trade up or down based on your assets, and most importantly, just let consensus rankings fully drive your draft selections. Nothing like every rookie draft looking pretty much the same, and groupthink dictating that any pick that's even five or more spots […]

By the third round of rookie dynasty fantasy football drafts, a lot of the talent has already been taken off the board.

Fantasy Football Dynasty Rookie Draft: Superflex, 12-Team (2025)
Don't we all love mock drafts? I sure do. The monotony of them can get... monotonous after a while when the vast majority of them just have short, shallow write-ups of each player without giving an emphatic, helpful take on each. I hope to do the opposite. Considering how far consensus can be (and usually […]

Early 2025 Fantasy Football Mock Draft: 12-Team, Single QB
There's never any reason not to do more fantasy football mock drafts and break down the efficacy of every pick. Or so the saying goes. Sun-Tzu probably said that in The Art of War. I haven't read the whole thing, so I'm not sure. Either way, it's never not interesting to speculate on what the […]

Every AFC Team's Most Overvalued Dynasty Fantasy Football Player
The 16 teams that comprise the AFC all have players that I don't think are worth, on their own, what you could get for them in trades as compensation. Not all of them are bad players, though. In fact, some of them are quite good. "Most overvalued" is a relative thing. And since there's not […]

Dallas Cowboys 2025 NFL Mock Draft: 7-Round Projections
The Dallas Cowboys had a disappointing season in 2024, by their (regular season) standards anyway. This was in part due to the injury to their quarterback, Dak Prescott, who suffered a partial hamstring avulsion in Week 8 and missed the rest of the season. Nonetheless, former head coach Mike McCarthy was fired and replaced with […]

It's hard to always know when to sell off your aging fantasy football players. Often, it's also difficult to accept that it's better to move on from a player when he's coming off a productive season and still has a lot left in the tank. But I believe it's better to be a year early […]
