Clearing Up Confusing Running Back Committees
Running back committees could be the most frustrating aspect of football for fantasy managers. For tailbacks to be viable in fantasy, they have to receive a steady amount of carries and targets. Sadly, many head coaches play games with their backfields, leaving fans pulling out their hair. Entering this season, this issue was even more […]
Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
It was satisfying enough to see a full slate of regular-season NFL games being played on Sunday. Then, the level of play exceeded expectations, as we weren't subjected to sloppy play and didn't see a slew of injuries. For fantasy purposes, it was great to see a lot of high-scoring games. The stars did their […]

Justin Tucker Makes Them Count In Week 1
Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker nailed his only field-goal on Sunday against the Browns, a 41-yard attempt near the end of the first quarter. He also hit all five of his extra-point attempts. With the Ravens' offense continuing to put up points in bunches, the veteran should remain one of the most efficient fantasy kickers […]
Willie Snead IV Scores A Touchdown In Week 1
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead IV pulled in all four of his targets for 64 yards and a touchdown during the Week 1 victory over Cleveland. The Browns undoubtedly had its sights set on containing Lamar Jackson from picking up big gains on the ground, which ultimately opened the door for the Ravens' receiving […]
Mark Andrews Has Big Day Against Browns
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews hauled in five catches for 58 yards and two touchdowns during the decisive win over the Browns on Sunday. With Cleveland looking to contain Lamar Jackson from making significant gains using his legs, Andrews capitalized to have one of the most productive performances of Week 1. The third-year man […]
Marquise Brown Productive In Week 1 Victory
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown secured five of his six targets for 101 yards during the Week 1 win over the Browns. With Cleveland focusing most of its attention on stopping Lamar Jackson and his ability to find significant gains on the ground, the door was open for Hollywood to make some noise on […]
Mark Ingram II Doesn't Do Much In Win
Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II finished with 10 carries for 29 yards during the massive win over the Browns on Sunday. As expected, the veteran conceded carries to rookie J.K. Dobbins, who finished with 22 yards off of seven attempts while also finding the end zone twice from inside the red zone. Ingram's […]
J.K. Dobbins Scores Twice In Debut
Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins ran for two touchdowns against the Browns on Sunday. While the rookie's seven rushes for 22 yards wasn't the most impressive showing, his ability to get his number called inside the five-yard line should raise the eyebrows of fantasy managers. As expected, Mark Ingram II was involved. Still, his […]
Lamar Jackson Picks Up From Last Season On Sunday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was dominant during the massive win over the Browns in Week 1. The 23-year-old got it done in all areas, throwing 275 yards and three touchdowns on an efficient 20-for-25 passing while adding seven carries for 45 yards. Jackson demonstrated why he was one of the first quarterbacks off the […]

Running Back Committees Worth Investing In
Running back committees are the worst. We can all agree on that, right? You go into the season drafting a guy that you’re expecting to get 300+ touches in a year, and it becomes evident early on that he will in fact be splitting touches with that fourth-round rookie. Rather than getting 25 touches in […]

Why Noah Fant Will Be This Year's Breakout Tight End
Every year in fantasy football, the tight end position is, for lack of a better word, mediocre. There are a few stars at the top and then a group of indistinguishable players in the middle. Sometimes though, there is one who waded through the muck and rises to the top of the heap. Last season, […]
