Drafting League-Winners In Rounds 1-8

The term "league winner" is one that is too often thrown around in fantasy football. Often it is used without even being defined. To me, a league winner can be one of two things: a player that is highly drafted but is still so much better than the rest of the field. Think of Christian […]

Is Hopkins' Fantasy Potential Nuk'd in Arizona?
