Donte Moncrief Catches Both Targets Against Vikings
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Donte Moncrief left Indianapolis, where he was the team's WR2, in free agency to come to Jacksonville, but so far he's been buried on the team's depth chart. On Saturday against the Vikings, Moncrief again played second fiddle to the team's top three guys -- Marqise Lee, Keelan Cole, and Dede […]
Keelan Cole Held Without Catch Against Vikings
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole didn't haul in his sole target in Saturday's preseason win over the Minnesota Vikings, but after missing the team's preseason opener it was an encouraging sign for fantasy owners to see Cole working with the first team. Cole and fellow receiver Marqise Lee looked to be on the field […]
T.J. Yeldon Comes Up Big In Receiving Game Against Vikings
Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon caught five passes for 73 yards in Saturday's preseason win against the Minnesota Vikings. Yeldon also carried the ball 10 times, gaining 39 yards. It was an impressive performance for Jacksonville's backup running back, who should see some work on passing downs this season. Yeldon doesn't have much fantasy […]
Leonard Fournette Records Touchdown Saturday
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette touched the ball 10 times in Saturday's preseason game against the Vikings, but those touches didn't translate into much production for the second-year back. Fournette did get the ball into the end zone, but his eight carries resulted in just 12 yards, while his two receptions netted 17 yards. […]
Blake Bortles Inconsistent Against Vikings
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles played the entire first half in Saturday's preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings, finishing with 159 yards on 12-for-20 passing with an interception. Bortles also scrambled for 14 yards on a third and long play. The Jaguars signal caller had some impressive moments, but the overthrows and the missed opportunities […]
Running Back Stat Sleepers - Missed Tackles Forced
Plunging into the world of football analytics is without question a great way to find fantasy sleepers for the coming season. Especially in the case of running backs, considering overall elusiveness is arguably the best way to determine how good (or bad) a player's performance was. We're going to dive head-first into some grade-A elusiveness […]
Defense Tiered Rankings and Draft Analysis
Defense is a position in fantasy leagues that is often wildly over-drafted. Even the best scoring and most consistent defenses do not differentiate themselves enough to the others to make them worth the price that they often go at. Last year the Jacksonville Jaguars defense lit up fantasy leagues, scoring among the top-10 defenses more […]
Blake Bortles Should Play Several Series In Second Preseason Game
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles played just a single series in the team's preseason opener, capping a 79-yard drive off with a rushing touchdown, but he is expected to play multiple series on Saturday against the Vikings. Jacksonville.com's Phillip Heilman says that Bortles likely won't play the entire first half for the Jaguars, but he […]
How to Approach the Quarterback Position in Your Draft

D.J. Chark Continues Strong Showing In Camp
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark has been the most impressive of the team's receivers in training camp, according to ESPN's Michael DiRocco. While this may not mean much in the short term as Jacksonville's receiving group appears to be too crowded for Chark to burst out of as a rookie, it muddies the outlook […]

ADP Sleepers or Busts? How to Treat Jacksonville's Receiving Options
In my mind, there are two ways you can look at the Jaguars wide receiver battle this preseason. First, you can take a gander at the five promising players there -- Keelan Cole, Marqise Lee, Dede Westbrook, Donte Moncrief, and D.J. Chark -- and think wow, someone is going to emerge from that mess and be […]
Corey Grant Growing Into Bigger Role
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Corey Grant has been featured so far in the preseason and his speed has impressed since he arrived as an undrafted free agent in 2015. Grant had 122 yards in the Week 17 finale in 2016. His role has expanded on special teams, and offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett is likely to […]
Dede Westbrook May Earn Starting Role
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook might be playing his way into a starting role going into his second season. Westbrook finished the year off strong in his rookie season but came into training camp having to battle for significant playing time in a loaded receiver room. A day has rarely gone by in camp […]

Stop That Hype Train! Trey Burton
Is Trey Burton going to be the top tight end option on the Chicago Bears in 2018? Yes. Is he the best TE on the roster? Maybe. These are not high thresholds to leap over at this point in time, however. Mitchell Trubisky may have a breakout season like Jared Goff last season, which would […]
Allen Hurns (WR, DAL) - 2018 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper
BALLER MOVE: Target ~125 CURRENT ADP: ~135 ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Allen Hurns moved from the Jaguars to the Cowboys this offseason and his fantasy stock may never be higher. The speedster is very talented, and really has the chance to break out, but his fantasy stock is so high for two main reasons. First, he […]
Tight End Standard Rankings - Tiers and Analysis
Tight end is always a difficult position to draft. The elite players go early but you have to be willing to sacrifice other positions to lock them down. Beyond the top tier, the position becomes highly inconsistent week-to-week which makes it particularly difficult to draft them. You must balance the upside of pure red zone […]
Dante Fowler Removed From PUP List
Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Dante Fowler (shoulder) was taken off the team's Physically Unable to Perform list, where he had been since training camp opened in July. Fowler practiced with the team on Saturday and could see playing time in the preseason, but he's been suspended for Jacksonville's first regular season game. In 2017, Fowler […]

Leonard Fournette Plays Well In Preseason Opener
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette carried the ball five times on Jacksonville's opening drive Thursday, gaining 24 yards before heading to the bench for the rest of the night. Fournette dealt with an ankle injury in the playoffs last season, but he didn't appear to be hobbled by that at all in Thursday's game. […]

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook was targeted a team-high five times in Thursday's preseason loss to the New Orleans Saints. Westbrook ended the night with three catches for 32 yards. With Keelan Cole missing the game with a foot injury, it's hard to know exactly what to read into the breakdown of playing time […]
