Darrynton Evans (RB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Rookie Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: Whether you load up on running backs early in the draft or employ the zero-RB strategy, a fantasy player’s ability to identify late-round upside running backs (and super-handcuffs) is massively important to winning a fantasy championship: enter Titans' rookie-rusher Darrynton Evans. The now-former Mountaineer ran the […]

Darrynton Evans: 2020 Fantasy Football Sleeper

Whether you load up on running backs early in the draft or employ the zero-RB strategy, a fantasy owner’s ability to identify late-round upside running backs is massively important to winning a fantasy championship. Building quality depth at the running back position (especially if you don’t have to use a premium pick in the middle […]

Stop That Hype Train! Kyler Murray

When it comes to the young quarterbacks in the NFL, few are as exciting as Kyler Murray. The dual-threat quarterback started his career with plenty of recognition, going from a first-round pick in the MLB playing quarterback for a season at Oklahoma to a Heisman-winning first overall pick of the Arizona Cardinals in the 2019 […]

Jalen Hurd (WR, SF) - 2020 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~160 Overall / Waiver Wire CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted in 12-team leagues) ANALYSIS: What we're seeing this season with rookie WR/RB Antonio Gibson is what Jalen Hurd already did in college and entering the NFL in 2019. He was a dual-threat offensive weapon playing running back in Tennessee (589 carries for 2,635 yards […]

Jalen Hurd - 2020 Fantasy Football Sleeper

One of the most satisfying feelings in the world is sitting on the clock late in your fantasy league’s draft knowing you’re about to pick a league winner. Late-round picks carry a lot of boom or bust potential, so there is a low-risk, high-reward payoff that could benefit your team either every week or through […]

My First Scott Fish Bowl: A Look Back

If you’re an avid fantasy football player and have been anywhere near Twitter the past couple weeks, you’ve undoubtedly seen plenty of posts regarding the Scott Fish Bowl or #SFBX. The Scott Fish Bowl is a charity tournament featuring 1,440 teams comprised of fantasy football fans and analysts. Players have to start a quarterback, two […]

Top Five Backfields To Handcuff in Fantasy Drafts

One of the most crucial things a fantasy player can do is have the foresight to build a lineup that maximizes talent while also minimizing the risk of player injuries or holdouts. This process is even more important looking to the 2020 season with the added risk of COVID-19 sidelining players. My previous articles looked […]

RB Handcuffs to Target: AFC Edition

Continuing the theme of the offseason, we will be looking at the AFC teams this week to establish who the handcuffs to target are in your fantasy drafts. Again, a handcuff isn’t necessarily going to be someone that has stand-alone value (think David Montgomery and Tarik Cohen for the Bears). My last article looked at […]

Sophomore RBs Set to Bust Again in 2020

One of the more difficult things to do in fantasy football is to predict player fluctuation every year. For every player who you can depend on each season (like Ezekiel Elliott), there is another that is extremely productive seemingly out of nowhere (DeVante Parker). The ability to avoid potential landmines is almost more important than […]

RB Handcuffs to Target: NFC Edition

Imagine the feeling of using your early start-up draft pick on a bell-cow running back. He is a lock to get a majority of your team’s carries. He is going to be a major factor in the receiving game. Heck, he may just mess around and lead the league in rushing touchdowns because he is […]

Wide Receivers Set To Return To Top-Tier Status

Finding players to provide your lineup with a high floor is essential to winning any fantasy championship. When it comes to fantasy football, no position has a greater ability to provide that high floor than wide receiver. Unfortunately, wide receiver also provides a high level of volatility from year to year. With so many talented […]

Forget-Me-Nots: Undervalued NFL Sophomores

We are closing in on the end of May. The weather is warming up, the NFL draft has come and gone, and fantasy players are beginning to look forward to the 2020 football season. The time between the 2020 NFL draft and summer rookie dynasty drafts or redraft leagues usually causes flare-ups of “rookie fever.” […]

The Perfect 10: Drafting a Dream Team in Round 10 and Later

Derrick Jones Jr. in the 2020 Dunk Contest (Sorry, Aaron Gordon). Romanian gymnast Nadia Comăneci during the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Miss Davis working at the Landing Strip in Varsity Blues. Our lives are defined by perfect 10s. Thankfully, we can take this same principle and apply it to our fantasy drafts. After you’ve taken the […]
