Jamaal Williams Set To Be Handcuff For Packers

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams looks set to be the handcuff running back for the team this season. Williams has missed time throughout the preseason, due to injury but looks to be ready for the regular season. Williams started last season as the lead back, partly in part to Aaron Jones being suspended. […]

2019 Kicker Rankings for Fantasy Football Drafts

The NFL's preseason has come to an end. By Saturday afternoon, all NFL rosters need to be cut down to 53 players. Over 1,000 players will be cut by 4:00 p.m. Fortunately for most of the players that we're looking at today, they have their spots locked up. It's time to look at everyone's favorite […]

Late-Round WRs to Target in Fantasy Drafts

I’ve been vocal about the fact that there is a lot of value to be found at WR late in fantasy drafts this year. I wrote an article already about my favorite late-round picks in general, but it’s time to take a look at some of my favorite wide receivers across various ADP ranges in […]

Wide Receiver Draft Rankings - Standard Scoring

The first pick in fantasy drafts is always the elite running back. Whether it be in PPR leagues or standard, this is the case and for good reason. It is important to have an elite running back when they are available. But this doesn’t mean you should forget about the wide receiver position. Sure, it […]

Denver Receivers Are Draft Steals with Joe Flacco at the Helm

Every year, there's at least one offense in fantasy football that drafters avoid like the plague. Last year it was the much-maligned Jets, with rookie QB Sam Darnold. According to current ADP this year's quarantined fantasy offense appears to be the Broncos. Most egregiously ignored in fantasy drafts is Denver's wide receiving corps, which has […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Flex Option For Opening Game

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling is a flex option for the opening matchup against the Chicago Bears. Valdes-Scantling has impressed throughout the preseason process with his athletic ability, which could cause the secondary of the Bears problems in the matchup. The Packers offense ability is yet to be seen truly, with a number […]

Geronimo Allison Has Flex Consideration In Week 1 Matchup

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison is a flex option for fantasy owners in the opening matchup against the Chicago Bears. Allison is likely the slot receiver for the Packers this season, which gives him a solid floor in PPR leagues. The Bears defensive units gave up on average 23.3 points to the position […]

Davante Adams Must Start In Matchup Against Chicago

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams is a must-start for fantasy owners this week. The Packers have a tough matchup against the Chicago Bears, a top defensive unit in the league. However, the Bears have shown themselves to be beaten in the air, being around the middle of the league, giving up 23.3 points […]

Aaron Jones Has Tough Matchup In Opener

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones has a tough matchup in the opening matchup against the Chicago Bears. Jones is likely the lead running back for the Packers, after previously splitting carries with Jamaal Williams. Jones was an effective last season once he was given more of the carries, and ended the season with […]

Aaron Rodgers Starts With Tricky Matchup

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers starts his new campaign on the road against the Chicago Bears. The Packers offense is full of weapons, like elite receiver Davante Adams, but the Bears offense is one of the better units in the league. The Bears gave up around 13 points on average to the position and […]

Around the League Pop Quiz: NFC South

I've been a little jaded writing some of these articles, not for any reason other than wondering if the creeping feeling of "everyone is listening to/writing all of the same advice" was starting to creep in a little heavier. I had many of the same sleepers/avoids as Matthew Berry, I've been tending to agree with […]

Packers Defense Could Be Streaming Option This Season

The Green Bay Packers Defense could be an effective streaming option for fantasy owners this season. The Packers have not hugely impressed in the preseason, but they have missed a number of key players through injury. The team added a number of pass rush options in the offseason, through free agency and the draft. However, […]

Dexter Williams Leads Backfield Against Chiefs

Green Bay Packers running back Dexter Williams led the team in carries in the final preseason matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Tim Boyle Limited In Final Preseason Matchup

Green Bay Packers quarterback Tim Boyle was limited in the final preseason matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Boyle ended the game, completing three of six attempts for 18 yards and a touchdown. Boyle has been impressive in the preseason but faces a battle with Deshone Kizer for the role behind Aaron Rodgers. Even if […]

DeShone Kizer Leads Team In Final Preseason Matchup

Green Bay Packers quarterback Deshone Kizer led the team in the final preseason matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Kizer finished the game completing eight of his 15 attempts for 77 yards, one touchdown, and an interception. Kizer also added another 13 yards on the ground with one rush attempt. Kizer at this stage seems […]

Randall Cobb (WR, DAL) - 2019 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~210 Overall Current ADP: ~240 We're a little bit separated from Randall Cobb's best season, which came in 2014. Back then he was able to catch 91 passes for 1,287 yards and 12 touchdowns and finished the year as the WR6 in PPR leagues rivaling the likes of Odell Beckham and Julio […]

Derek Carr (QB, OAK) - 2019 Fantasy Football Sleeper

You can convince me about drafting a top-tier running back inside the first four or five picks; we're talking about true game-changers there. You can convince me about drafting a top-tier wide receiver from picks five to 15; there are just a few elite-wideouts available, after all. But will you never convince me of getting […]

Shaking the “Sleeper” Myth and Using Your Late Picks Wisely

I’m an 80s baby, so, like most of my generation, The Princess Bride played a major role in my early pop-culture consciousness. While most people remember the hulking physique of Andre The Giant or the crowd-pleasing chant of Inigo Montoya (“Hello…”), one part that stuck with me was Inigo’s calm criticism of his boss’ use […]

Five Wide Receiver Bounce Back Candidates

We're entering the peak of fantasy football draft season. Everybody is burning the midnight oil looking for the most accurate cheat sheets, trying to find the sleeper with the biggest upside, and doing mock drafts while eating dinner with his family over the weekend. It is that time of the year when hitting on the […]

Running Back Standard Rankings for Fantasy Football Drafts

Running backs don’t matter. This may or may not be true in the real NFL but in fantasy, it surely isn’t the case. If it were the case, why are the top four consensus players all at the position? It is always great to have one of the top guys at the position. But if […]

Navigating Late-Round Tight Ends

When should I draft a tight end? This is one of the questions in fantasy football that gets the biggest split of answers. There is the clear cut tier of Travis Kelce (who you could argue is in a tier of his own), Zach Ertz and George Kittle, but their ADPs are high. With all […]

Around the NFL Pop Quiz: NFC North

In an effort to write these columns before the start of the season, I ask a lot of people their thoughts on everyone under the sun in fantasy. None of these interactions are as rewarding when I ask my wife her thoughts on her favorite team, the Green Bay Packers. They aren't, uh, thorough. Me: […]

Tight End PPR Rankings for Fantasy Football Drafts

Tight ends are tricky in fantasy football. Due to the top-heavy nature of the position, it is typically best to either land one of the top few or to wait until the end of the draft to find one. An elite TE like Rob Gronkowski in years past can elevate your roster with his performances […]

Nick Mariano's 2019 Late-Round Fliers (Premium Content)

All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard.

I may still throw it into the SEO field, though...no regrets. Instead, let’s discuss some late-round fliers that are […]
