Andrew Lalama's Bold Predictions for 2020 Fantasy Football

I love bold predictions articles because I hate chalk. Preseason ADP is never anywhere near accurate when predicting the season, yet many fantasy drafters have trouble differentiating from the consensus. Last year I predicted that Lamar Jackson would break the QB rushing record, Chris Godwin would have a big season, and David Johnson would struggle. […]

Hunter Renfrow - 2020 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper

Realistically, the wide receiver position is the deepest of any in fantasy football on a yearly basis. This year, it's even more ridiculous than usual with at least 20 guys that could be WR1s at the end of the year. We're not looking at one of those today though. We're looking at one of the […]

Bryan Edwards Getting Starters Reps

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Bryan Edwards has been getting first team reps during practice this week, while fellow rookie Henry Ruggs III hasn't been. This is a fairly big development since Ruggs was the first wide receiver drafted in this year's NFL Draft, but the speedster out of Alabama was always a bit […]

Josh Jacobs' Bar Continues To Rise

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs could be in line for a breakout year, a sentiment that was echoed by ESPN's Mike Clay, who predicted the sophomore back to total 1,400 yards from scrimmage this season. The 22-year-old finished 2019 with 1,150 yards and seven touchdowns but was hindered by a shoulder issue that […]

Josh Jacobs Pegged As An Early MVP Candidate

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs has been labeled as a potential MVP candidate this upcoming year, according to a recent article posted by Dan Hanzus of NFL.com.

Darren Waller Thinks Raiders Could Have Top-Five Offense

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller thinks his team's improved offense could be a top-five unit in the NFL this year. "The big thing for us is finishing in the red zone this year. I know that we’re doing everything in our power to improve upon that. I don’t feel like having a top-five […]

Henry Ruggs III Comes With Some Risk

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Henry Ruggs III, the 12th overall pick in April's draft, has plenty of fantasy upside, but there is also some potential downside that keeps him from being NFL Network's Cynthia Frelund's top projected rookie wideout. Ruggs lined up wide in 80 percent of his snaps at Alabama last year […]

Josh Jacobs Ready To Live Up To Hype?

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs has plenty of hype as he enters his second year in the league. With the team loaded on the receiving end, many anticipate that opposing defenses won't have the luxury of being able to stack the box like they did last season. While Jacobs' rookie season wasn't a […]

Maxx Crosby Has Sights Set On Chiefs QB

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby had 10 sacks in his rookie season in 2019, but he wasn't able to take down Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. "He’s a different type of player too. He’s one of those guys. He just backpedals, he’ll throw the ball from weird angles, it’s not like sacking […]

Henry Ruggs III Expected To Be Ready For Training Camp

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Henry Ruggs III, who injured his thigh last month while helping a friend move, suffered no muscular damage and is expected to be ready for training camp next month, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Derek Carr Found Open Receivers Under Pressure

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr posted the third-best passer rating (103.7) while under pressure in 2019, and his completion percentage of 66.7 under pressure was the best of any qualifying signal-caller in the league last year. Carr's completion percentage above expectation of plus-5.9 had to do with the fact that he targeted open receivers […]

Las Vegas Raiders 2020 Fantasy Outlook

Ah, Jon Gruden’s team will no longer be known as the Oakland Raiders, but the Las Vegas Raiders. That may take a while to get used to or even say, as I have still heard Oakland being mentioned. No better way to debut in a new NFL city than a Monday nighter against Drew Brees, […]

Josh Jacobs To Win Rushing Title In 2020?

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs has been pegged by NFL.com contributing columnist Adam Schein to win the league's rushing title.

The 22-year-old appeared in 13 games in […]
