Marvin Jones Jr. A Solid Week 1 Option

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. draws a plus matchup against a poor Texans defensive unit in Week 1. The Texans were plenty beatable through the air in 2020 when their seventh-most fantasy points allowed to opposing WR's, and they should be even more beatable this season following the trade of top CB Bradley […]

Laviska Shenault Jr. Draws Dream Week 1 Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars second-year wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. has a pristine Week 1 matchup against the Houston Texans. Not only are the Texans bereft of talent on the defensive end, but Shenault projects to face off against the ultra-beatable Vernon Hargreaves III in the slot for most of the contest. Hargreaves allowed a 117.5 passer […]

D.J. Chark Jr. A Volatile Week 1 Play

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. has an excellent Week 1 matchup against the Houston Texans. Houston allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing wideouts last season, and they just traded by far their best cornerback, Bradley Roby, to the Saints on Wednesday. While the matchup is ideal, Chark's role is uncertain at this […]

James Robinson A Strong Week 1 Option

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson faces off against a Texans team in Week 1 that allowed a whopping 32.8 fantasy points per game to opposing running backs in 2020, good for worst in the NFL. The Texans regressed as a defensive unit on paper, so it's doubtful that they will put up much resistance […]

Trevor Lawrence Starts Season With Ideal Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars star rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence lines up to face the Houston Texans in Week 1, and it's hard to imagine a better matchup, as the Texans have the NFL's lowest projected win total. The Texans allowed the fourth-most points to opposing signal-callers in 2020, and they project to regress even further as a […]

The calls to abolish kickers in fantasy football seem to grow by the year, but most leagues continue to use them. They matter.

Deeper Wide Receiver Sleepers to Target

With two weeks until the start of the NFL season, many fantasy managers are moving from participating in best-ball leagues to starting to prepare for redraft and home leagues.
