Week 1 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

If you've spent the last 24 hours crying your eyes out because you passed on Kareem Hunt, benched Mike Gillislee, or paid up for Gronk, you're not alone my friend.

Week 1 Daily Fantasy Football Tournament Stacks

Just like everyone predicted, right? If Thursday's outcome was any indication of what's to come in Week 1 and beyond, we should […]

Fantasy Pop Quiz - NFL Week 1

I was faced with this thought the other day when, on Twitter, I joked that the weirdly under-discussed "Red Sox Steal Signs from Yankees" story wouldn't even be the biggest sports story of the day on September 5. And seriously, it wouldn't be; a few hours later the fact that the NFL's arbitrator upheld Ezekiel […]

Passing On Passers - A Case For Drafting Your QB1 Late

You hear it every year: wait, wait, wait, and wait some more on quarterback. It's arguably the most common fantasy strategy out there these days. The premise is simple; waiting on your QB1 allows you to soak up all of the stronger running backs and wide receivers, ending up with a late round passer who […]

You know the fantasy football season is right around the corner when the first starting quarterback tears an ACL and the first top tailback gets suspended for off-the-field fiascos.

Half-PPR Wide Receiver Rankings Analysis

Heading into 2016, wide receivers were considered the “safest” fantasy option, but that changed in a hurry. Running backs were three of the top five non-QB scorers according to ESPN scoring in 2016. Every team does need to fill in wide receiver positions, and this year there is certainly an amount of depth at the […]

Half-PPR Running Back Rankings Analysis

Playing in half-point per reception leagues are one of the more difficult things to do in fantasy. Owners need to weight which players not only will catch passes, but also have touchdown upside as well. Running backs that catch more passes should certainly have increased value over backs that are strictly running the football on […]
