D.J. Chark Jr. Part Of A Small Group
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. is one of only four wideouts since 2018 to have not dropped a catchable pass, according to Pro Football Focus. This was another welcome statistic for the 23-year-old who had a breakout year in 2019 by finishing with 73 receptions for just over 1,000 receiving yards and eight […]

Drafting League-Winners In Rounds 1-8
The term "league winner" is one that is too often thrown around in fantasy football. Often it is used without even being defined. To me, a league winner can be one of two things: a player that is highly drafted but is still so much better than the rest of the field. Think of Christian […]
Backfield Committees to Avoid in 2020?
In fantasy football, volume is the key to rostering and fielding a winning team. While everything boils down to that concept, seeking volume calls for looking deeper than just the name and reputation of players. Put a great running back in an RBBC backfield and his volume--and thus his fantasy outcome--will drop without question. The […]

For those of you in fantasy football IDP leagues (Individual Defensive Player), it can be hard to find content that helps you decide when you should draft defenders in your drafts, and when you should expect others to select them. To help you through this process, we are going to conduct a one-man mock with IDP players […]
One-Man Backfields to Chase in 2020
We're talking about fantasy football here, and in fantasy, volume is the key to rostering and fielding a winning team. While everything boils down to that concept, seeking volume calls for looking deeper than just the name and reputation of players. Put a great running back in an RBBC backfield and his volume--and thus his […]
Fantasy Outlook in a Sentence: AFC Conference
I have been looking at data from the 2019 season since the Super Bowl finished. I have been looking at projections for the 2020 season for the past few weeks. I have been writing fantasy football columns from different perspectives for the upcoming year for quite some time now. Do you know one thing I […]
New England Patriots: Should We Avoid Them All In Fantasy?
Yes. That's the short answer but, of course, it is not so simple. Here, we will look at some players you may actually want to consider in fantasy drafts. It is tough to think of the New England Patriots as a fantasy wasteland. They have been so good for so long. Their dynasty may (finally) […]
Running Back Standard Rankings, Tiers and Analysis
In the NFL, everyone knows that quarterback is the most vital positions to the success of their team. But in fantasy football, the most vital position is running back, with seven of our top nine ranked players at the position. That's especially true in standard scoring leagues. It's such a relief to have one of […]
Jaguars Aren't A True 3-4 Defense
Jacksonville Jaguars defensive coordinator Todd Wash pumped the brakes on the team transitioning from a 4-3 defensive scheme to a 3-4 scheme this year. "We're not a true 3-4 or two-gap team," Wash said recently. "That's not how we're built up front – or the size of our unit – to do that." Versatility from […]
Laviska Shenault Jr. A Versatile And Physical Receiver
Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr., taken 42nd overall in the second round of the draft, aligned out wide on 107 snaps, in the slot on 75 snaps and in the backfield on 27 snaps at Colorado last year, per Pro Football Focus. Shenault had the most yards after the catch (1,060) among […]
Dynasty Price Check: Antonio Brown
On June 12, 2020, seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Antonio Brown plead no contest to three different criminal charges. With no outstanding legal charges against the free-agent wide receiver, it may clear the way for teams to begin looking at signing him. So what kind of value does he hold in dynasty leagues? *deep breath* […]
Best-Ball Tight Ends: Finding Sleepers with "12" Personnel
You have to draft at least two players at each position -- yes, even defense and (blech) kicker -- to cover your best-ball roster because you can't make in-season moves. I'm not one to draft two tight ends in most typical leagues, but I will in TE-bonus setups like FFPC contests, the Scott Fish Bowl, and […]
Leonard Fournette Could Be Impacted By Holdouts
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette may be impacted by the holdout of Vikings running back Dalvin Cook, who recently stated that he would not report until he gets a new deal. With Bengals running back Joe Mixon also potentially not reporting unless he reaches a new agreement, Fournette, among others, could benefit from a sizable increase […]

Why Joe Burrow Will Be a Top-10 Fantasy Quarterback
The prevailing strategy that has taken over fantasy football is to wait on quarterback. Given the depth of the position, many fantasy players are focused on addressing other positions on their roster before selecting their QB1. This strategy allows you to construct a roster filled with depth at wide receiver and running back. If you’re […]
Fantasy Power Rankings for NFL Teams (#21-32)
As any experienced fantasy football enthusiast knows, evaluating individual players is only part of the equation when it comes to building a roster. There are many instances in which the team a player plays for is just as important as his ability and talent. And in these cases, the determining factor is not always whether […]
Later-Round RBs with Upside and Safer RBs to Avoid
I have a new fantasy football strategy that I will be using this season. My strategy this season is to build a safe base in the early rounds and then target upside players as those are the ones that win championships. This is not simply saying to be reckless at your drafts, but more so […]
Leonard Fournette Putting In Work
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette has been putting in work this offseason. The veteran recently posted videos on both Instagram and Twitter, showing the fourth-year back working on his agility and footwork.

I will be exploring a new strategy in fantasy football this season.

I recently broke down the strategy and both why/how I will be implementing it this fantasy football season. […]
Laviska Shenault Jr. - Fantasy Football Rookie Spotlight
The Jacksonville Jaguars likely do not have high expectations about advancing far in 2020. If anything, they should be considered a rebuilding team with a stripped-down defense, young QB in Gardner Minshew II, and a running back with an uncertain future in Leonard Fournette. However, they did draft a wide receiver in Laviska Shenault Jr. […]

The Fantasy Fallacy of Running Back Committees
Some of the scariest words a fantasy owner can hear is that their running back is now part of a committee (RBBC). However, people rarely look beyond this - failing to examine what this truly means, and how it impacts a player’s value. In simple terms, an RBBC is defined as having multiple running backs […]

Josh Allen Will Face More Of A Test In 2020
Jacksonville Jaguars edge-rushing linebacker Josh Allen had an incredible rookie season in 2019, being selected to the Pro Bowl with 54 total disruptions and 10.5 sacks. He had a disruption rate of 16.2 percent and a sack rate of 3.1 percent, but how much of his success had to do with fellow pass-rushers Calais Campbell […]
