The Deepest Dive - QB Sleepers in 16+ Team Leagues

Can you name every fantasy league you played in last season? Probably not. But can you think of their average structure?

Allen Lazard Absent From Minicamp

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard didn't attend minicamp. However, he wasn't required to be there, as the veteran hasn't signed his restricted free agent tender. He had his best season in the league in 2021, finishing with 40 catches for 513 yards and eight touchdowns. With Davante Adams and Marquez Valdes-Scantling no longer […]

Great Running Back-Offensive Line Pairs to Target

Sometimes fantasy GMs focus too much on raw, counting stats for running backs. How many yards did they rush for? How many touchdowns did they score? Perhaps, taking it one step further, they end up looking at some "manufactured" numbers such as yards per carry, yards after contact, etc... But there is something more that […]

Aaron Rodgers In Attendance For Minicamp

Players With Misleading Numbers Not Worth Drafting in 2022

When it comes down to facing a fantasy draft, two numbers are often the most sought after by fantasy GMs: current ADP and overall rank from the prior season.

Aaron Rodgers: "I think About Retirement All The Time"

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been dominant throughout his career. He's won a Super Bowl, been named the league's MVP four times, and is a multi-time Pro Bowler. However, despite continuing to be one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, the 38-year-old recently commented on his retirement. "I think about it all […]

Christian Watson Could Be A Project

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver and second-round pick Christian Watson could take some time to make an impact.

Running Back Committees Not to Avoid in 2022

Nobody likes a running back committee. Until you have to do so just out of pure logic. If we're offered the chance of drafting a bell-cow a la Christian McCaffrey in 2019, we're always going to pull the trigger no matter what the outcome ends up being. Just the fact that the man will carry the ball […]

Best Wide Receiver Stacks for 2022

Sometimes we're afraid of putting together players from the same team on our rosters, let alone weekly lineups. To a certain extent, that makes sense: the opportunities one gets will take away from the opportunities the other could have gotten. Why limit the fantasy upside of our team with two receivers playing in the same offense […]

Robert Tonyan Limited In OTAs

Green Bay Packers tight end Robert Tonyan (knee) was limited during OTA workouts. Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said in March that Tonyan was ahead of schedule.

Christian Watson Should Have Big Role

Green Bay Packers second-round wide receiver Christian Watson might be a WR1 as a rookie as the team looks to replace Davante Adams, who was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders this offseason. Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb and Sammy Watkins have shown little indication that they can be quarterback Aaron Rodgers' top pass-catcher. Watson will […]

Quarterback Touchdown Bounceback Candidates for Fantasy Football

Throwing a lot of touchdowns? Good! Throwing a lot of touchdowns at a rate that surpasses either your average level or the league average level?

Aaron Rodgers Won't Attend OTAs This Week
