Under The Radar WR Signings: Fantasy Risers or Fallers?

Due to the ongoing pandemic facing this nation and the world, the 2020 NFL offseason has been a little tough to navigate given the lack of mini-camps and OTAs. The biggest names on the free-agent market this year were Amari Cooper and A.J. Green, both of whom stayed with their respective clubs. However, just because […]

The King's FFPC Pros vs. Joes Best Ball Slim Draft

Yes, Clyde Edwards-Helaire Is a First-Round Pick

Clyde Edwards-Helaire should be a top-10 RB going off the board in the first round. That statement shouldn’t be controversial, but people are always hesitant to pay that high of a price for a player we haven’t seen in the NFL before. But you should not let that fear scare you from drafting CEH. Clyde […]

Here are the latest fantasy football rankings in all formats, including PPR, Half PPR and non-PPR.

The first order of business is […]

Cheap-But-Good QB-WR Stacks in Redraft

Now, this backfield is likely to belong solely to […]

High-End Wide Receivers to Fade

WR/TE Stat Analysis: Catch Rate and Drawn Pass Interference

When it comes to drafting stud wide receivers and tight ends, we all pursue the same stats: receptions, yards, and touchdowns. It makes sense.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Got In Extra Work Before Camp

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire reported to training camp on Saturday along with quarterback Patrick Mahomes to begin official on-field training activities.

WR and TE Snap Alignment Breakdown

If you have been following football for some time now, you know that different alignments yield different results.

We've already run through the early rounds in Part 1 to find potential league winners in 2020 fantasy football drafts. Now, we move to the latter half of the draft.

Overvalued RB Handcuffs Getting Too Expensive

Who doesn't love to draft a player late and see him blossom into a league winner? That can often be the case with running back handcuffs covering for starters that fall down to injury or enter the season holding out. Drafting a no. 2 running back late, or even getting him from waivers close to […]
