Early 2021 Running Back Sleepers

Even with the NFL being a passing league these days, running backs still rule the roost in fantasy football.

Packers Select Kylin Hill In Seventh Round

With the 256th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers have selected Mississippi State running back Kylin Hill. It's a little shocking to see Hill fall this far, as he was a well-regarded running back prospect. In theory, he can add a needed pass-catching element to the Packers backfield, but with Aaron […]

The Green Bay Packers selected Clemson wide receiver Amari Rodgers with the No. 85 overall pick in the third round of the 2021 NFL draft on Friday night. The Packers traded up to make this pick.
