I hail from San Diego but moved to Memphis in my youth. I grew up a fan of the Padres, Chargers and Buffalo Bills, so my childhood fandom was a little rough. A serious car accident near the end of High School ended my hopes to continue baseball and football into college. Upon graduating from Ole Miss, I moved back to San Diego. The year was 2008 and jobs were scarce, so I began committing my time to studying College football and developed an algorithm used for predicting College football outcomes. Following a successful season, I was finally granted a medical waiver. With my sports eligibility gone, I still felt the need to destroy my body, so I decided to join the Army. I went on to serve a total of 7 years in the Army, serving as a Dismounted Patrol Leader and Convoy Commander in Iraq (and later in Amy intelligence but it's classified). After getting my MBA from Texas State in 2017, I went on to work at Electronic Arts with the hopes of resurrecting the NCAA Football franchise (spoiler alert: It didn't go as planned), but during my time there, I began writing for a few websites on the side and realized my calling became writing what I'm passionate about, Sports. I've been writing full time now since 2019 and am ecstatic I have been able to focus full time doing what I love.

Fresh Auction Draft Strategies

Imagine planning an event in which a dozen or so people will be there to get a limited amount of cakes. In the real world, the outcome of such an arrangement is an auction. Not one person would agree everyone should just draw out of a hat to form a line to get the cakes, […]

How to Approach Rookies in a Dynasty Startup

In many ways, rookies in dynasty leagues are like icing. Too much can doom you and too little can shorten your window to win. But, just the right amount, combined with the other right ingredients, and you’ll have a delicious cake you can eat. The only difference between re-draft and dynasty is that you’ll be […]

Rookie Wide Receivers Set to Make an Impact in 2020

Situation is key in fantasy. This is especially the case for rookies looking to make an instant splash in the NFL.

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

With the conclusion of rounds two and three of the NFL Draft Friday, many of the big-name running backs and tight ends of this class saw their names called.

Are Rookie Receivers Trustworthy in Redraft Leagues?

When I started planning this article, it reminded me of a draft I had last year in a very deep league. It was a re-draft league and a guy drafted Emanuel Hall, a Missouri receiver with 4.39 speed, signed to the Bucs a few days prior. Sure, it was a deep league, the Bucs' offense […]

Measuring the Measurables: NFL Combine Truths

The other day, a friend asked for my opinion on a restaurant he'd read a review on. I told him, “In my experience, it was amazing. I liked the style in which certain dishes were prepared. It’s not for everyone, but if you like things the particular way they make them, you’ll love it.” It’s […]

Dynasty Debate - Derrick Henry vs Melvin Gordon

Derrick Henry turns 27 next January, while Melvin Gordon turns 27 in April. That’s where we need to start when we’re discussing their value in a dynasty format. For running backs, you can chart their production on a line graph and you’ll typically get a production distribution similar to a mountain. With most, they start […]

Managing Running Backs in the Modern NFL

Who among us saw the film Gremlins and didn’t want their own little pet Mogwai like Gizmo? He was cute and curious and had a propensity to sing calming melodies. He was one little creature you weren’t ashamed to admit you liked and why not? The tricky part was that little Mogwai would multiply if […]
