Cheap Quarterback–Wide Receiver Stacks to Consider for Redraft Fantasy Football in 2023
There are countless strategies to fantasy football and one of them that has grown in popularity, especially in Best Ball leagues is stacking. Stacking is the practice of drafting both the quarterback and their primary pass-catcher from the same team. This turns a touchdown into 10.5 points without even factoring in whatever yardage the duo […]

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~200 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~214 ANALYSIS: There is a possibility that Nico Collins may not be the guy in Houston, in which case John Metchie III becomes an excellent pivot option who can be drafted in the 16th round. Metchie was a second-round pick and an early declaration, both positive indicators for […]

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~218 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~251 ANALYSIS: It's hard to believe that Slayton is so cheap considering how well he played last season.

Robert Lorge 1 year agoBounce Back Wide Receiver Candidates For 2023 Fantasy Football - Diontae Johnson, Courtland Sutton, Deebo Samuel, more
Fantasy managers can sometimes be too quick to jump the gun on a player’s career or skill set. One bad year can turn into a belief that said player maybe isn’t as good as anymore or has been replaced or is on the downward slope of their career. However, sometimes, it was just a bad […]

BALLER MOVE: Target Around 110 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~123 ANALYSIS: At first glance, being drafted to a team that already employs Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Austin Ekeler, Joshua Palmer, and Gerald Everett could be construed as a negative thing. While there are certainly some barriers he needs to overcome, the landing spot is not without […]

When it comes to sports, especially football and particularly the running back position, an athlete's success is often dependent on their teammates. A good offensive line is a running back's best friend. Although truly elite tailbacks can still be productive with below-average line play, most cannot. Fantasy analysts often interpret down years for running backs […]

An NFL player’s performance throughout the course of their career is never linear. How easy would this game be if it was? If they all continued to perform better from their rookie season until they reached a plateau and then began to decline, our fake little game would become increasingly less enjoyable. Why? Because it […]

NFL free agency seems like a lifetime ago, but DeAndre Hopkins signing with the Tennessee Titans is one of the last few significant dominoes to fall.

Alvin Kamara has been one of the very best fantasy running backs ever since he was drafted back in 2017. In fact, since that time he’s finished in the top five of half-PPR PPG in four out of six seasons. He’s finished as an RB1 five times and his very worst season was just this […]
Robert Lorge 1 year agoMike Williams 2023 Fantasy Football Outlook – Are You In or Out?
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams tends to elicit some pretty strong feelings in the fantasy football community. He’s been tagged for being injury-prone. He's viewed by many as a boom-or-bust player who is more likely to leave early due to injury or drop a dud than actually help you in the box score. […]

Robert Lorge 1 year agoCalvin Ridley 2023 Fantasy Football Outlook – Are You In or Out?
Calvin Ridley may be one of the bigger conundrums for fantasy football managers this season.

Moore, Terry McLaurin, and Jerry Jeudy. Fantasy managers […]
Robert Lorge 1 year agoFantasy Football Draft Targets And Avoids- NFC South Breakdowns For Kyle Pitts, Alvin Kamara, Rachaad White, more
Much like the AFC South, the NFC South lacks fantasy football power.

Robert Lorge 1 year agoFantasy Football Draft Targets And Avoids - AFC South Breakdowns For Dameon Pierce, Calvin Ridley, Anthony Richardson, more
I discussed with my editors the possibility of skipping the AFC and NFC South articles as a protest against the expected poor performance of the eight clubs in these divisions. Well, except for you, Jacksonville. We think you'll probably be good, but to be fair, you’ve let us down in the past. Anyways, they said […]
Robert Lorge 1 year agoJavonte Williams Fantasy Football Outlook – Are You In or Out?
Some fantasy managers have Javonte Williams completely off of their draft boards due to his significant knee injury. The injury wasn't your typical torn ACL, which brings with it some of its own concerns. Williams tore his ACL, LCL, and PLC. This multi-ligament injury creates plenty of reasons for fantasy managers to be skeptical. This […]
Robert Lorge 1 year agoFantasy Football Draft Targets And Avoids- NFC East Breakdowns For Dak Prescott, Jalen Hurts, Terry McLaurin, more
Our last entry featuring the AFC East was a rough one. There are several elite-level players in that division but very few in the second and third tiers.

Robert Lorge 1 year agoWide Receivers Breakouts for Fantasy Football - Sophomore WR Candidates
Rookie receivers have been all the rage for the past few years. However, the vast majority of players often need a year to transition to the NFL before they really start producing on a consistent basis. Rookie stars such as Justin Jefferson, Ja'Marr Chase, and Jaylen Waddle are unicorns. It’s not abnormal for a poor […]
Robert Lorge 1 year agoNick Chubb Fantasy Football Outlook – Are You In or Out?
Fantasy managers often identify Nick Chubb as one of the best pure runners in the NFL, but he’s never viewed as an elite running back in fantasy football. His minimal receiving work and the presence of former teammate Kareem Hunt would constantly capp his ceiling. However, Hunt is now a free agent, and Chubb’s ADP […]

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past three months — and honestly, even if that’s the case — you’ve probably heard that Aaron Rodgers will not play quarterback for the Green Bay Packers next season.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel had a poor 2022 season that was largely attributed to injuries. Meanwhile, teammate Brandon Aiyuk experienced a third-year breakout campaign.

Michael Pittman Jr.'s career thus far has been anything but easy. He missed time due to a calf strain and a concussion during his rookie season in 2020.

D.J. Moore’s trade to Chicago has elicited many vastly different opinions on what his fantasy football value is for the 2023 NFL season.

George Pickens is a fantasy football player who elicits a variety of feelings. Some argue about his draft capital, early declare, and solid rookie season, believing he will dethrone Diontae Johnson.

Robert Lorge 2 years agoFantasy Football Yardage Risers- Running Back Regression Candidates
Every year, fantasy football managers attempt to identify players whose price is not in-line with the value they'll provide. Of course, this can go both ways: players whose cost is too high relative to their provided value and others whose cost is too low. Any two fantasy managers may differ on a singular player, but […]
