Tight End Rankings Analysis – PPR Leagues

Tight ends might not rack up the yardage receivers do, but they can match their counterparts in the receptions department. While only two tight ends broke the 1,000-yard barrier (Travis Kelce and Darren Waller) and two had double-digit touchdowns (Kelce and Robert Tonyan) in 2020, five were targeted over 100 times and eight had 60 […]

Laviska Shenault Jr. – 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper

The Jacksonville Jaguars are in a lot better shape heading into the 2021 NFL season than they were at the end of the 2020 season, and that bodes well for the fantasy futures of their skill-position players. Laviska Shenault Jr. was selected in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Jaguars because […]

Jalen Reagor – 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper

Jalen Reagor did not show fantasy football general managers much in 2020, but the same will not hold true in 2021. The Philadelphia Eagles’ former first-round pick was supposed to kickstart their pass-catching corps and give fantasy footballers a speedy slot receiver who could be useful in standard and dynasty leagues. Instead, Reagor gave fantasy […]

Gerald Everett - 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper

Gerald Everett was stuck in a tight end timeshare as part of an offense whose passing attack rarely focused on its tight ends. Not anymore. Everett took his talents to the Seattle Seahawks as soon as he could leave the Los Angeles Rams this offseason. He is now a multimillionaire member of Russell Wilson’s receiving […]

Dynasty Rankings Analysis - Tight End

There are plenty of talented tight ends in the NFL these days, and many of them are 27 or younger and perfect to have on a dynasty fantasy football roster for the next several seasons. Fantasy football general managers do not generally build their dynasty teams around their tight ends. That does not mean that […]

2021 Standard Rankings Analysis: Wide Receiver

The NFL has become a pass-first league, and fantasy football general managers have adapted their strategies to coincide with this. There used to be a time where wide receivers were third bananas in fantasy football behind running backs and quarterbacks. That feels like when parachute pants were cool to wear, though, because receivers have become […]

Early 2021 Standard Rankings Analysis: Tight End

The hearty supply of potent and powerful players at the tight end position heading into the 2021 NFL season are probably making fantasy footballers’ mouths water more than a surf-and-turf combo of filet mignon and lobster tail. While only two tight ends broke the 1,000-yard barrier (Travis Kelce and Darren Waller) and two had double-digit […]

Rookie Tight Ends in Best Fantasy Situations (Post-Draft)

Rookie tight ends have it tough as it is, so the only way they are going to post decent numbers that will help fantasy football managers is by being in great situations. First-year tight ends usually struggle in their first year in the NFL, whether they are first-round picks or seventh-round picks. Look at last […]

Early 2021 Breakouts: Tight End

It is never too early to check a crystal ball to see what the future might hold --- especially in fantasy football. Detroit’s T.J. Hockenson had an injury-marred rookie campaign in 2019 that ruined the title hopes of many fantasy general managers, but the former first-round pick rebounded like Dennis Rodman in his sophomore season. […]

Early 2021 Running Back Sleepers

Even with the NFL being a passing league these days, running backs still rule the roost in fantasy football. You cannot win a fantasy football league without a decent pair of high-caliber running backs, and many times you need three above-average backs to win thanks to injuries, bye weeks, COVID outbreaks, and because you can […]

Early 2021 Sleepers: Wide Receiver

It is never too early to find fantasy football sleepers. Never. If you want to win your fantasy league in December, you better start paying attention to what is going on the in NFL in April. The NFL is a passing league. There is no doubt about that. Gone are the days where a 4,000-yard […]

Kenny Golladay to the Giants - Fantasy Football Impact

It was no holiday for the fantasy football players who had Kenny Golladay on their rosters in 2020. After posting back-to-back 1,000-yard years and entering the season as a top-10 fantasy wide receiver on many if not most cheat sheets, Golladay’s injury-riddled season ruined the championship dreams of many fantasy general managers. Hip and hamstring […]

Marvin Jones to Jaguars - Fantasy Football Impact

With Urban Meyer on the sidelines and Clemson standout Trevor Lawrence probably under center, the Jacksonville Jaguars could be the NFL’s most improved team this upcoming season. Jacksonville needed to upgrade its receiving corps, so the Jags used a chunk of their copious salary cap space to sign veteran wideout Marvin Jones Jr. to a […]

Biggest Breakouts of 2020 - Quarterback

Fantasy football general managers put a lot of stock in young quarterbacks, and their 2020 fantasy seasons were successful if they picked the right quarterbacks to ride. There were some signal-callers fantasy footballers probably thought would have breakout years in 2020. New York’s Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones took steps back, though, while Chicago’s Mitchell […]

Biggest Breakouts of 2020 - Running Back

The NFL might be a pass-first league that is dominated by quarterbacks and wide receivers, but running backs still rule the roost in fantasy football. 2020 was not a great year for running backs in fantasy football, though. The consensus No. 1 pick in fantasy leagues, Carolina’s Christian McCaffrey, only played three games due to […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 16

This is the week fantasy football managers are either gearing up for their league’s Super Bowl or preparing for their fantasy hockey drafts after the New Year.

You probably have a decent tight […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 17

Your fantasy football season is probably over, but if you are in a league where Week 17 determines who wins the championship, then your fantasy hockey and hoops plans have to be put on hold for another week. Maybe your fantasy football league is a cumulative league and not a head-to-head league, so the stats […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 15

This is the week fantasy football managers are either in the playoffs or planning for their fantasy basketball drafts. Congratulations if you made your fantasy football league’s playoffs!

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 14

This is the week that will define your fantasy football season. Do not pull a Gregg Williams and make a mistake at the worst possible time.

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 14

Week 14 is the week fantasy football managers in leagues are in one of three situations:  They are in the first round of their playoffs, they are in the last week of their regular season fighting for a playoff spot, or their season is over and they are looking forward to fantasy basketball. If you […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 13

This is the week that makes or breaks the seasons of millions of fantasy football managers. Week 13 is when most fantasy leagues are only one or two weeks away from their playoffs, so paying attention to the injury report and your league’s waiver wire are just as important as paying attention to your spouse, […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 13

Week 13 is the unluckiest week of the fantasy football season --- for those managers and teams who lose and do not end up making their league’s playoffs. Even this late into the season, two teams are going to be on bye (Tampa Bay and Carolina), so fantasy managers will have to find a replacement […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 12

Just because no NFL teams or players are on bye this week, it does not mean that fantasy football managers will not be in search of a last-minute replacement this week. Fantasy football teams are now battling for playoff berths and the opportunity to win their league titles. Making sure every player in your lineup […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 12

This is the week to find out if your fantasy football team is the turkey of your league. Fantasy playoff berths will be decided during this crucial week. The trade deadline has probably passed in your league, so adding players via the waiver wire is likely your only option. The good news for fantasy football […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 11

The waiver wire players available in your fantasy football leagues by the end of Week 11 are not going to win you a championship singlehandedly, but they could help you win this week and propel your squad into the playoffs. Fantasy football managers must deal with another four teams being on bye, although three of […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 11

It is getting down to the nitty-gritty for fantasy football general managers this week. Yes, I said the NITTY-GRITTY! Week 11 is one of the most crucial weeks for fantasy footballers if they participate in leagues. This is when playoff spots are secured or flushed down the toilet. San Francisco’s George Kittle has left fantasy […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 10

The waiver wires in fantasy football leagues start getting bare by Week 10. Fantasy football managers will be without their Chiefs, Cowboys, Falcons and Jets this week. They will also be without the same abundance of available talent on the waiver wire that there is during the first half of the season. Now that the […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 10

Millions of fantasy football managers will be without their star tight ends this upcoming week, so finding a future fantasy force or a one-week stopgap at the position on the waiver wire has never been more important this season.
