BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~95 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~105 ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard enters 2022 atop the depth chart following the departures of Davante Adams to the Las Vegas Raiders and Marquez Valdes-Scantling to the Kansas City Chiefs. Adams and Valdes-Scantling combined for 224 targets last season and quarterback Aaron Rodgers […]
JuJu Smith-Schuster (WR, KC) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~50 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~75 ANALYSIS: Everyone is so focused on JuJu Smith-Schuster's last three seasons, but let's add a little context to these numbers. In 2019, JuJu missed four games and finished with a disappointing stat line of just 40 receptions, 552 yards, and three touchdowns. However, to be fair, […]
Dawson Knox (TE, BUF) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~88 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~96 ANALYSIS: Knox was one of the biggest breakouts at the tight end position in 2021, if not the biggest. He went from being a touchdown-dependent pass catcher who was lucky to average 30 receiving yards per game to being a dominant red-zone fantasy force who set […]
Breakout Year Coming For Clyde Edwards-Helaire?
ESPN's Dan Graziano wonders if this is the year that Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire will break out.

Rookie WRs Set to Make An Impact in 2022 Fantasy Football Leagues
Rookie wide receivers tend to be really hit or miss in fantasy football. Last year was definitely a "hit" year, as Ja'Marr Chase and Jaylen Waddle had explosive seasons. This season...well, I think we should temper our expectations just a little bit about this class of rookie wideouts. There's plenty of talent, but Chase and […]
Mecole Hardman Should Enter Season As No. 2 WR
The Athletic's Nate Taylor writes that the safest estimate is that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster will lead the receiver group, at least early in the season. Next up should be Mecole Hardman because he's the fastest of the group and has been in the system the longest. Marquez Valdes-Scantling should open as […]

Darren Waller (TE, OAK) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~45 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~50 ANALYSIS: Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller has always been Derek Carr's No. 1 option in the passing game in his first three seasons as a starter. He's averaged 8.4 targets per game across 46 fully healthy games. But 2022 will be different. Not only did the […]

Is Late-Round QB A Viable Strategy? QB Options To Target in Fantasy Football Drafts

Tight End Dynasty Rankings - Fantasy Football Tiers and Draft Analysis
Fantasy football general managers do not build their dynasty league rosters and fantasy futures around the tight end position.

This does not mean tight ends should […]
