James Conner (RB, ARI) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~93 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~103 ANALYSIS: Conner leaves Pittsburgh after spending the past four seasons there and coming virtually out of nowhere to turn into a fantastic tailback for the Steelers in years past. While he has not been the healthiest of players out there (he has missed 14 games in his […]

Cole Beasley (WR, BUF) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~130 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~144 ANALYSIS: Even with the addition of Emmanuel Sanders and with Gabriel Davis seemingly taking on a heavier role, PFF still projects Beasley to rack up the second-most PPR points in Buffalo, only behind Stefon Diggs with a 198+ FP projection. He hasn't had an ADP above 145 dating back to his debut all the […]

Eric Ebron (TE, PIT) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~194 ANALYSIS: A TE1 getting off draft boards at a TE3 price? I'll take two! That's Eric Ebron for you, folks, and that also is a nonsensical thing taking place in the summer of the 2021 year of our Lord. Simply put - Ebron's price is way down […]

Sterling Shepard (WR, NYG) - 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~155 Overall (PPR) CURRENT ADP: ~184 ANALYSIS: Last year was Shepard's best in terms of efficiency with a 9.94 YPR mark to go with a career-high 73.3% Catch Rate while putting up a 90/66/656/3 receiving yard line to go with 49 yards and a single touchdown on the ground to put the […]

Mike Davis (RB, ATL) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~45 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~54 ANALYSIS: I don't think I'm introducing you to anything new in Mike Davis by now, but here we are. Backing up Christian McCaffrey for a large part of the 2020 season, Davis was insanely productive, and that allowed him to finish the year as an RB1 when the season […]

Players with Red Flags to Avoid?

When it comes down to facing a fantasy draft, two numbers are often the most sought after by fantasy GMs: current ADP and overall rank from the prior season. No matter how experienced fantasy players are, those two numbers are thought of as the ultimate all-encompassing representations of every football player's value. Knowing what he […]

Sophomore Slump - Breakout Rookies Who Could Bust in 2021

This past NFL season, we saw a number of breakout rookies like Justin Herbert, Justin Jefferson, Jonathan Taylor, and James Robinson.

Second-year players can have a wide […]

Wide Receivers to Prioritize in Non-PPR Leagues

Fantasy draft season will be upon us before we know it. Aside from evaluating ADP and staying in tune with training camp reports this summer, it's also important to study differences between league types.

Running Back-Offensive Line Combos to Fade

Sometimes fantasy GMs focus too much on raw, counting stats for running backs. How many yards did they rush for? How many touchdowns did they score? Perhaps, taking it one step further, they end up looking at some "manufactured" numbers such as yards per carry, yards after contact, etc... But there is something more that […]

Late-Round Running Backs To Outperform ADP

Training camps are in progress, and many of you are participating in drafts as Week 1 kickoffs approach. You will develop a strategy before you begin building each roster.
