Week 1 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

If you've spent the last 24 hours crying your eyes out because you passed on Kareem Hunt, benched Mike Gillislee, or paid up for Gronk, you're not alone my friend.

Half-PPR Rankings Analysis – Tight Ends

You know the fantasy football season is right around the corner when the first starting quarterback tears an ACL and the first top tailback gets suspended for off-the-field fiascos. Tight ends are not as valuable as quarterbacks, running backs and receivers in fantasy football, but the points they provide, especially in half-PPR leagues, can propel […]

Taylor Gabriel (WR, ATL) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~150 CURRENT ADP: ~170 ANALYSIS: The Atlanta Falcons chose to re-sign Taylor Gabriel this last offseason without much hesitation. The former undrafted player from Abilene Christian, who completed his third NFL season, tied Julio Jones for the team lead in touchdown receptions with six. The 5’8, 167 lb receiver averaged 42.7 yards on his touchdown receptions, the […]

Five Deeper Wide Receiver Sleepers for 2017 Fantasy Football

In fantasy football, the wide receiver position has by and far the most depth of any player group. This is not to say that all wide receivers should be passed on in favor of quarterbacks or running backs on draft day, but it does mean that there are plenty of hidden gems lurking in the […]

Half-PPR Wide Receiver Rankings Analysis

Heading into 2016, wide receivers were considered the “safest” fantasy option, but that changed in a hurry. Running backs were three of the top five non-QB scorers according to ESPN scoring in 2016. Every team does need to fill in wide receiver positions, and this year there is certainly an amount of depth at the […]

Late-Round Tight Ends Who Will Outperform Their ADP

Half-PPR Running Back Rankings Analysis

Playing in half-point per reception leagues are one of the more difficult things to do in fantasy.

The Running Back Handcuff Hedge - Who To Handcuff

We have learned over time that the running back position is without question the most volatile in fantasy football.

Along with this natural order of chaos, […]

2017 Running Back Depth Chart Analysis

Running backs are important--you can't win a fantasy league if you don't get at least solid production from the position. But with the increased usage of committees and the high risk of injuries at the position, picking out who to own from a team can feel like a crapshoot. Quality running backs tend to come […]
