Leonard Fournette A Flex Play In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette will appear in a new uniform for Week 1 of the 2020 season after being surprisingly released by the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. Always known as a workhorse back in the NFL, Fournette will have to fight with Ronald Jones II for that role in Tampa. Still getting […]

Ronald Jones II An RB3 For Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II is still the RB1 in Tampa after the team signed Leonard Fournette last week, but the back should be considered an RB3 for this week in fantasy. Jones must prove he is capable of shouldering the load as the RB1 with Fournette vying for that role while […]

Ryan Succop Should Be Avoided In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop should be avoided in the Week 1 matchup against the Saints. New Orleans allowed the eighth-fewest points to the position last year, and it will be the kicker's first game with a new team, as he just signed with Tampa a week ago. Last season, Succop only appeared in […]

Chris Godwin Is A WR1 In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin is coming off a breakout season in 2019 where he finished as the second-best fantasy wideout. This was with Jameis Winston at quarterback, so the addition of Tom Brady is another plus for the receiver. Godwin and Mike Evans enter 2020 atop the Bucs WR depth chart, but […]

Mike Evans A Solid WR1 For Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has only had 1,000-yard seasons in his NFL career, and the addition of quarterback Tom Brady only helps his value for 2020. With a stacked Tampa offense this season, Evans' role is still big enough for him to sustain his fantasy value. Despite their generally sturdy defense, the Saints […]

Rob Gronkowski A Low-End TE1 In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski should be considered a low-end TE1 for this week's matchup against the Saints. The talented tight end will be playing his first game since the 2018 Super Bowl, which was over one and a half years ago. Naturally, he may be shaking off some rust. Though it's a […]

Buccaneers Defense Should Be Avoided In Week 1

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense will face a stiff test in Week 1 against the division-rival Saints at the Superdome. Last year, the Bucs had a notoriously weak secondary, which many quarterbacks targeted. This season, the biggest concern on this defense is still in the secondary, as the team has young cornerbacks in Carlton Davis […]

Julian Edelman Will Likely See Less Work As Punt Returner

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman will likely see less work as a punt returner this season so the team can give the 34-year-old player more opportunities to be effective in the passing game. The veteran still remains one of the most valuable offensive pieces on the team and just needs more time to […]

David Montgomery Status For Week 1 Is Unclear

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery's status for Week 1 remains unclear due to a groin injury he sustained on August 26 that would cause him to miss a few weeks. A worst-case scenario would be him missing a game or two at the beginning of the season. The back was at practice on Sunday, […]

David Johnson Facing High Expectations This Year

Houston Texans running back David Johnson will have the pressure on him this season with the Texans as he looks to be a factor for the team and prove he can be a workhorse back in the NFL again. Houston made headlines earlier this offseason for trading elite wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins to the Arizona […]

DeVante Parker Will Play Week 1

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker will be ready for Week 1 after missing one week of training camp due to an unspecified, but minor injury. This is good news for Miami as WRs Albert Wilson and Allen Hurns have already opted out of the season, leaving the team with Parker, second-year player Preston Williams, […]

Josh Rosen Will Join Buccaneers Practice Squad

Quarterback Josh Rosen signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as part of their practice squad on Sunday. The 2018 first-round pick was released by the Miami Dolphins on Saturday and will now head up the state for his third team after being drafted just a couple of years ago. Rosen was ultimately let go by […]

Deep Draft Sleepers: Tight End

Fantasy football can be unpredictable. In a position like tight end, there are several elite options to draft before the value of the players starts to fall off. Therefore, though it is integral to draft a great TE, some managers may look to stock up at other positions. While that may be an effective strategy, […]

Chris Carson Has Not Heard About Contract Extension

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson has not spoken with the team about a potential contract extension as he enters the final season of his rookie deal in 2020. Carson is expected to be the RB1 on Seattle and claims he is fully healed after missing a game late last season due to a hip […]

Mike Evans Has Contract Restructured

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans had his contract restructured on Saturday to help the team create salary cap space to sign running back Leonard Fournette and kicker Ryan Succop, according to the Pewter Report. The restructuring created about $9.56 million in cap space. Evans signed a five-year, $82.5 million deal back in March of […]

Lamar Jackson Claims To Be Fully Healthy

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson claims he is now fully healthy after missing a couple of practices earlier in training camp because of a groin injury. The 23-year-old is coming off an MVP season and figures to be the leading force as his team looks to make a deep playoff run in 2020. The QB […]

Devonta Freeman Visiting Jaguars

Free-agent running back Devonta Freeman is visiting the Jacksonville Jaguars in hopes of finding a new home. The 28-year-old back was released by the Falcons in March, but still had a respectable year with them last season by compiling 184 rushes, 656 rush yards, two rushing touchdowns, 59 receptions, 70 targets, 410 receiving yards and […]

Eagles Will Keep Alshon Jeffery

Despite reports earlier in the day about it, the Philadelphia Eagles have no intention of trading wide receiver Alshon Jeffery, according to a report by NJ.com. The 30-year-old was activated off the PUP list today, but it still remains unclear when he could return to the field, though it's likely at some point a few […]

Michael Pittman Jr. (WR, IND) - Fantasy Football Rookie Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~150 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~163 ANALYSIS: The Indianapolis Colts needed a playmaking wide receiver entering 2020 so they went on and snatched big-man Michael Pittman Jr. in the second round of the draft. Pittman's size will make him a great red-zone presence for Philip Rivers and will allow him to use his […]

Marquise Brown (WR, BAL) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~60 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~75 ANALYSIS: It didn’t take long for Marquise Brown to acclimate to the NFL. In the Week 1 throttling of the Dolphins, the speedster smoked the Miami secondary all day, notching four receptions for 147 yards and two touchdowns. Due to the Ravens being a run-first team, Brown never […]

Target Regression Candidates: Tight End

In the NFL and fantasy football, things can change as easily as the snap of a finger from campaign to campaign. One season, somebody breaks a record, and the next, they are fighting for targets and struggling to produce. Based on game script, chemistry, and availability of weapons, targets can fluctuate for pass-catchers. In a […]

Hayden Hurst Says Falcons Are The Perfect Fit

In an interview with NFL Network, new Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst called his situation the perfect fit. The 27-year-old was traded to Atlanta from Baltimore earlier this offseason after notching 30 receptions, 39 targets, 349 yards, and two touchdowns last season with the Ravens. His role on Baltimore decreased in 2019 with the […]

Rookie Roulette: Which First-Year RB Is the Best Value?  

When it comes to drafting rookies, many fantasy owners know the potential risks that come with drafting an unproven player in terms of NFL experience. No matter how prolific a player may have been in college, the NFL is a whole different animal and adjustment periods vary depending by player. For 2020, an impressive slate […]

Leonard Fournette to Buccaneers: Fantasy Fallout

It seems a now-rich team has just gotten richer this offseason. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a team nobody had thought twice of before March, now have added former Jaguars RB and first-round pick Leonard Fournette to their offense on a one-year deal after getting QB Tom Brady and TE Rob Gronkowski this offseason. The Bucs […]

San Francisco 49ers Defense (D/ST, SF) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

CURRENT ADP: Rd. 16.3 (2nd D/ST) ANALYSIS: This pick should be no surprise, as it is the second-most-expensive among D/ST. But if you can get to the last rounds with the unit available you better get it. The 49ers rode a ball-hawking and dominant defense to the Super Bowl last year and it’s hard to point […]

New England Patriots Defense (D/ST, NE) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

CURRENT ADP: Rd. 22.3 (5th D/ST) ANALYSIS: The Patriots had a dominant defense in the first half of 2019 (partly due to them playing very weak opponents), but the unit still finished as the top-ranked fantasy defense at the end of the season. It’s best to temper expectations heading into this season though, as the Pats […]

T.Y. Hilton Playing Lights Out In Camp With New QB

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton has developed a terrific rapport with his new QB, Philip Rivers, in training camp thus far. The 30-year-old receiver has not missed a beat, even catching a deep 47-yard touchdown from Rivers in camp just a couple of days ago. Rivers went on to praise Hilton's abilities as a […]

Van Jefferson To See Increased Reps In Camp

Los Angeles Rams rookie wide receiver Van Jefferson will begin to see increased reps in camp this week as WR1 Cooper Kupp is dealing with a muscle strain. Jefferson has shined throughout camp thus far, even garnering praise from QB Jared Goff for his great route-running and catching abilities. The 24-year-old was drafted in the […]

Jordan Reed Considered Retirement

San Francisco 49ers tight end Jordan Reed admitted that he considered retirement before signing with the team earlier this month. A part of his reason to join the Niners was the desire to reach the Super Bowl and play in the big game. The talented tight end has dealt with many injuries throughout his six-year […]

Damien Harris Seeing Increased Reps In Camp

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris has been playing superbly in training camp, and has been earning first-team reps. The 2019 pick out of Alabama barely played at all last season, only appearing in two games for four carries and 12 rushing yards. With RB Sony Michel just being activated off the PUP list, […]
