If you missed it, we've already reviewed running back and wide receiver ADP comps to find better bargains in the middle rounds.

Let's finish up this series with a look at the all-important quarterback position. When you're done, you should look back at running back, wide receiver, and tight end ADP comps as well. While ADP is very informative and can help you be informed about where you should start worrying about potentially missing out on a player, […]

Chiefs Waive Derrick Gore

The Chiefs waived running back Derrick Gore (thumb) with an injury settlement on Thursday. The 27-year-old fractured his thumb during a preseason matchup versus Washington and was subsequently placed on the injured reserve list. Assuming he clears waivers and enters free agency, there's a chance he could rejoin the roster once healthy. Gore, who had […]

Matt Bushman Injures Shoulder On Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Matt Bushman (shoulder) left Thursday's preseason matchup against the Green Bay Packers. The 26-year-old was on a roll before the injury, catching three balls for 73 yards and two touchdowns. Bushman, who is currently buried on the depth chart, isn't a lock to make the regular season roster. However, after […]

Trent McDuffie Lands In Concussion Protocol

Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Trent McDuffie (concussion) was injured during Thursday's preseason game against the Green Bay Packers. The 21-year-old hit his head early in the contest and was evaluated for a head injury, eventually landing in concussion protocol. McDuffie was selected in the first round, No. 21 overall in the 2022 NFL Draft and […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Catches Passes Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) was out on the field catching passes from quarterback Patrick Mahomes on Thursday before the team's preseason finale, which is the first time he's been on the field since early last week. The Chiefs are expecting the 25-year-old to be ready for the Week 1 regular season […]

Jalen Hurts (QB, PHI) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~45 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~65 ANALYSIS: In Hurts' first full season as the Eagles' starting quarterback, he finished as the QB6 with 21.4 fantasy points per game. And that was also Nick Sirianni's first season as head coach in Philadelphia. But let's break down why Hurts could ascend all the way […]

Off-The-Radar Fantasy Football Sleepers Who Could Make Noise - Tyler Johnson, Hayden Hurst, Justin Watson, and more

The term "sleeper" has been overused and abused by the fantasy community. The fact is that almost anyone can be a sleeper if you frame it the right way. It's gotten to the point that we can identify several subcategories of sleepers. First, there's the non-sleeper: a player so obvious that it barely qualifies but […]

Adam Koffler's Bold Predictions for the 2022 Fantasy Football Season

If you don't appreciate a good bold prediction, you don't like fun. Bold predictions are inherently fun and elicit strong reactions from lots of people. Now, bold predictions, while bold of course, should have sound justification for why they could come to fruition. While I really like Nyheim Hines this season, stating he'll be a […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Atop The RB Depth Chart

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire is clearly atop the running back depth chart, according to ESPN's Adam Teicher. However, it seems as though rookie Isiah Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon could carve out significant roles based on their strong play in training camp and the preseason. But the Chiefs haven't committed to anything behind […]

Dallas Goedert (TE, PHI) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~75 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~83 ANALYSIS: Goedert is being drafted as the TE8 in drafts, but I think he has the potential to crack the top 3 and carries just as much upside as Kyle Pitts who is being taken around 50 picks earlier. The Philly pass-catcher is poised for a […]

Diontae Johnson (WR, PIT) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~40 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~46 ANALYSIS:  The only reason Johnson is falling outside of the first four rounds of fantasy drafts must be the fact that he's playing for a team that employs Mitchell Trubisky and Kenny Pickett as quarterbacks, right? But wait a minute! Hasn't Johnson excelled at this thing called football […]

Jaylen Waddle (WR, MIA) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~35 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~42 ANALYSIS: Tyreek Hill is the flashiest new toy in town and so is his monster ADP of 24.5, barely past the second round in 12-team drafts. Meanwhile, Jaylen Waddle, the actually-proven, known quantity, who was the most productive player in Miami is often available at a much […]

Justin Carter's Bold Predictions for the 2022 Fantasy Football Season

Is there anything more fun than a bold prediction? You get a chance to say the things that you really want to say, but then if it's completely wrong, you can say "oh, that was just a bold prediction, of course it was wrong." I've had a lot of fun doing bold predictions pieces for […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Should Be Fine For Regular Season

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) has "turned the corner" and should be fine for the regular season opener in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. Smith-Schuster's sore knee occurred the Monday after the first preseason game, and he hasn't practiced in training camp since. Reid isn't […]

Thunder Dan's Bold Predictions for the 2022 Fantasy Football Season

It's officially draft season and at this point, it's time to take some stances on players since you can't (and shouldn't) draft everyone. I'll be honest, the number of leagues I participate in has gone down considerably over the years as I am laser-focused on DFS, sports betting, and trying to cover three major sports […]
