Gardner Minshew - 2020 Fantasy Football Sleeper
Entering the 2019 season, the Jacksonville Jaguars were receiving warranted hype after the pickup of former Super Bowl-winning quarterback Nick Foles.

Andrew Lalama's Top 10 Half-PPR Rankings
I’m considering David Johnson at six. Not the sixth round, but at sixth overall.

For quarterback, I’m either going Aaron Rodgers in the seventh round or waiting until the […]
