Christian McCaffrey Looking Stronger
Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey enters his third NFL season, and beat writer Max Henson says CMC looks bigger, faster and stronger.

Dynasty Startup ADP Arbitrage - Kyler Murray or Cam Newton?
There's been a lot of hype behind Cardinals rookie quarterback Kyler Murray. Playing in an Air Raid-style offense for the Cardinals should allow Murray to be a high-volume passer fairly quickly, a guy who can be a great passer moving forward. There's also been a lot of not-hype for Cam Newton, who missed a couple […]

Rookie Roulette - Which QB Goes After Kyler Murray in Dynasty Drafts?
Asking the question "which first-year quarterback should go first in rookie drafts" is, basically, a bad question. You don't need to read a 1000 word piece from me about why to pick Kyler Murray over the other quarterbacks in this class. No way. Kyler should be the first quarterback off the board in 100 percent […]
Le'Veon Bell - Still a Fantasy First-Rounder?
We are largely in uncharted territory when it comes to Le'Veon Bell. If there has been a previous instance of an elite player sitting out a full season and changing teams, I'm not aware of it.

He is pleased with the stats, but hopes it translates into more wins. […]
James Bradberry A Big Defensive Piece For Panthers
Carolina Panthers cornerback James Bradberry has been a good player, and the organization views him as an essential piece of the defense. Bradberry is aiming for more interceptions in 2019, and if he is able to do so it will help his case for a very lucrative new deal. "I know free agency's coming up […]
Greg Olsen Makes Appearance In Minicamp
Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (foot) was able to take part in practice on Wednesday after sitting out offense vs. defense periods for most of organized team activities (OTAs).

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (shoulder) has been using a new throwing motion so far during minicamp and offseason drills, as the team tries to cut down on the wear and tear on his surgically-repaired throwing shoulder.

Who's #1 in Redraft Leagues?
You want the first overall pick in your draft. Even if you think you don't, you do. Historical data supports that the higher you pick, the more likely you are to win.

The Carolina Panthers waived wide receiver Mose Frazier (arm) after he broke his arm in the first week of voluntary organized team activities.

Carolina Panthers defensive end Mario Addison weighs 255 pounds this year due to better eating habits after weighing 265 pounds in 2018.
