I’ll make a few key observations before I get into the thick of it. This was a very fast draft and […]

Kev's Bold Predictions for Fantasy Football in 2019

Bold predictions don't win you leagues, but they're fun to have and flex later on if you're right. It's the easiest victory lap available. Say some ridiculous stuff, post it, and if you're right, you're a genius, if you're wrong, "Well, they were BOLD for a reason, pal!" A good chunk of these predictions I believe in […]

Green Bay Packers Defense Shows Teeth In Opener

The Green Bay Packers Defense was able to impose itself on the Chicago Bears in the opening matchup. The Packers held the Bears to just three points at home while also managing five sacks and an interception. Linebacker Blake Martinez, in particular, impressed with one sack, one tackle for loss and five solo tackles in […]

Mason Crosby Converts Both Kicks In Opener

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby was only called on by the team twice but was able to convert both attempts in the opening matchup against the Chicago Bears. Crosby converted the extra point and then hit a 39-yard field goal in the final quarter to win the game for the visiting team. Crosby should […]

Trevor Davis Catches Single Target In Opener

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Trevor Davis caught his single target in the opening game against the Chicago Bears. Davis had a mixed pre-season, impressing at the crucial time towards the end of the process, finally making the roster. Davis is likely not going to have value unless one of the starters becomes injured. However, […]

Jimmy Graham Catches Touchdown In Opening Game

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham caught the only touchdown in the opening matchup against the Chicago Bears. Graham had six targets, catching three of them for 30 yards and a touchdown. Graham didn't seem to struggle in the matchup and was able to catch the ball, even with the hand injury he picked […]

Geronimo Allison Not Targeted In Opening Win

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison was unable to attract a single target in the matchup against the Chicago Bears. Allison has hyped up all off-season as a big-bodied slot receiver but failed to make an impact in the match. While it represents only one game, against a tough matchup, the situation should be […]

Davante Adams Fails To Make Impact In Opening Matchup

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams failed to make the impact fantasy owners would have hoped for in the opening game against the Chicago Bears. Adams had a team-high eight targets but was only able to catch four of them for 36 yards. The Bears defensive unit was actively trying to remove him from […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Flashes In Opening Game

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling flashed in the opening matchup against the Chicago Bears. Valdes-Scantling finished the game with four receptions for 52 yards, including an impressive 47-yard catch. The athletic receiver was only bettered in targets by elite receiving option Davante Adams. However, it's worth noting that he equaled targets with tight […]

Jamaal Williams The Clear Backup For Packers

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams is the clear backup for the team. There had been talk around the team operating a committee backfield. However, he only had seven touches in the game, which is half the number that lead back Aaron Jones had. Williams finished the game with five carries but was unable […]

Aaron Jones Struggles In Opening Matchup

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones struggled in the opening game of the season. Jones finished the game with 13 rushing attempts, managing to get 39 yards on the ground- and failing to catch his single target. A matchup against the Chicago Bears, who have one of the better units in the league, was […]

Aaron Rodgers Leads Packers To Victory In Opener

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers led his team to victory in the opening matchup against the Chicago Bears. In a low scoring game, Rodgers finished the game completing 18 of his 30 attempts for 203 yards and a single touchdown. Rodgers also added eight yards from three attempts. The opening matchup was always going […]

They rightfully belong in the first round and are being drafted highly. But who are some guys that are being overvalued a bit […]

Jace Sternberger Placed On Injured Reserve

The Green Bay Packers placed rookie tight end Jace Sternberger (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, according to a source. Sternberger will miss at least half of the season and is currently in a walking boot. He's merely a stash in deeper dynasty formats in 2019. The veteran Jimmy Graham will remain Green Bay's top […]

Jimmy Graham Puts In Full Practice

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (finger) was upgraded to a full practice on Tuesday. Graham should be fine to start in the regular season opener against the Bears on Thursday night. The long-time Saint could easily bounce back in the touchdown department in this new offense, but fantasy owners are better off deploying […]
