Under-the-Radar Route Runners To Target Late

Often times, what draws spectators and fantasy enthusiasts to a wide receiver is their size, their speed, their ability to reach over defenders and snatch balls out of the air, and their ability to score touchdowns. That’s all well and good, but rarely do we look at what makes a wide receiver truly special – […]

As the NFL season approaches, and leagues begin to host their fantasy drafts, we have a pretty good idea of where most players will be drafted.

Stop that Hype Train! George Kittle (TE, SF)

Unless an owner commits heavy draft capital into a tight end, we’re usually left scrambling for someone towards the end of the draft. This season is no different, with hype trains surrounding late round tight ends like Trey Burton, Tyler Eifert, and David Njoku. One player, sandwiched in the middle of those aforementioned tight ends, […]

Kenneth Dixon In Line For Preseason Debut Monday

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenneth Dixon will make his preseason debut on Monday night against the Colts after sitting out the first few weeks of camp.

Maxx Williams Back At Practice Thursday

Baltimore Ravens fourth-year tight end Maxx Williams returned to practice Thursday after missing the team's preseason game against the Rams.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco has shown a renewed sense of vigor early on in camp, showing early chemistry with newly-acquired wide receivers John Brown and Michael Crabtree.

John Brown Showing Signs Of Resurgence

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver John Brown is showing some early chemistry with quarterback Joe Flacco and has been noted as the Ravens best wide receiver thus far into training camp.

Tight End Standard Rankings - Tiers and Analysis

Tight end is always a difficult position to draft. The elite players go early but you have to be willing to sacrifice other positions to lock them down. Beyond the top tier, the position becomes highly inconsistent week-to-week which makes it particularly difficult to draft them. You must balance the upside of pure red zone […]

Offenses To Trust and Which Will Bust for 2018 Fantasy Football

It perhaps goes without saying that fantasy owners should look to draft players on high-powered offenses, as they usually offer a bevy of startable assets and have a higher chance for scoring opportunities than most teams.

Breshad Perriman Shows Well In Preseason Matchup

After struggling with drops early on in camp, Baltimore Ravens third-year wide receiver Breshad Perriman hauled in three receptions for 71 yards and a touchdown on Thursday night.

Alex Collins Remains Atop The RB Depth Chart In Baltimore

Baltimore Ravens running back Alex Collins managed just two carries in Thursday's preseason matchup with the Rams, which comes as no surprise for a running back that should expect to see heavy volume throughout the regular season. For what it's worth, Collins averaged 13 yards per carry on each of his attempts. Collins is competing […]

Michael Crabtree Hauls In One Of Two Receiving Targets

Baltimore Ravens veteran wide receiver Michael Crabtree caught his first pass from his new quarterback Joe Flacco, connecting for a 30-yard reception early in the first quarter. Crabtree dropped his first target from Flacco, but it was nice to see the two connect before being taken out of the preseason matchup. Crabtree has some nice […]

Lamar Jackson Flashes Rushing Ability

Baltimore Ravens rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson rushed for a nine-yard touchdown in Thursday's preseason matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. While Jackson was just seven of 18 through the air, he flashed some of his elusive rushing ability that we saw from him at Louisville. The rookie quarterback was more efficient than his first preseason […]

Running Back Committees to Buy in 2018

Training camp is in full swing and so are the daily tweets from beat reporters showing 30-second highlight clips of fades to the corner of the end zone or quick comments from coaches that start to cast doubt on whether we picked the right player this off-season. This is the time of the year where […]

Lamar Jackson Struggling On Deep Balls

Baltimore Ravens rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson's spirals have consistently been wobbly throughout training camp, especially on the deep ball.

He was considered […]

Hayden Hurst Could Be Immediate Contributor

Hurst has made several big plays and diving catches during joint practices with the Rams this week, and he could contribute immediately if he can […]

There are many reasons to be excited for the prospects of Cameron Meredith coming into the 2018 season. He is on an offense in New Orleans headed by the most accurate passer of all time.
