Tight End Dynasty Rankings - Tiers and Analysis
2018 was probably the best year for tight ends in the history of fantasy football. Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz set the NFL single-season record for receptions by a tight end with 116, while San Francisco’s George Kittle set the single-season record for receiving yards for a tight end with 1,377. What’s crazy is that neither of […]
Chiefs Open To Trading Dee Ford
The Kansas City Chiefs are open to trading pass-rusher Dee Ford despite placing the non-exclusive franchise tag on him on Monday. The thought is that Ford is a better fit for a 3-4 defense, but the Chiefs would be happy keeping him another year if a trade doesn't work out. It may only take a […]
