Tight End Best Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis for Fantasy Football

Tight end isn't everyone's favorite position in fantasy football. Beyond the top tier, we encounter uncertainty, frustration, and the need to stream. There is no such option in best-ball leagues, though. Securing a high-end TE, especially in a high-stakes league like FFPC that uses TE-Premium scoring, is very appealing but not everyone can have Travis […]

Plunging into the world of football analytics is without question a great way to find fantasy sleepers for the coming season.

I will be […]

Is Jameson Williams Worth Drafting Coming Off an ACL Injury?

Brutal luck for Jameson Williams. The top wide receiver prospect in the upcoming NFL Draft tore his ACL playing in the College Football Championship Game for Alabama. It’s reasonable to be skeptical of Williams’s doctors publicly stating that he’s going to get back to his sub-4.3 speed. Are they being honest or mostly having their […]

2022 Wide Receiver Stat Busts - Slot Performance

Plunging into the world of football analytics is without question the best way to find fantasy sleepers for the coming season. Especially in the case of wide receivers, where how they are lining up on the field has a direct correlation with production. Slot receivers don't quite offer the boom-upside an outside receiver will deliver […]

Running Back Stat Busts: Elusiveness Rating - Ezekiel Elliott, Cordarrelle Patterson and More

A lot of elements go into making a running back desirable for fantasy football. Opportunity, a good offensive line, and a good offense are all key elements.

Aaron Donald Says He Will Suit Up For 2022 Season

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald has told head coach Sean McVay that he plans to return for the upcoming season.

Quarterback Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis

On the field, quarterbacks are the most crucial position of all. In fantasy football, not so much. This may be especially true in best-ball leagues where the highest win rates don't usually associate with the best passers.

Robert Woods Traded to Titans: Fantasy Football Impact Analysis

When the Rams brought in Allen Robinson, my first response was "that's a bunch of receivers." Evidently, the Rams thought the same thing, as they shipped one of their wideouts, Robert Woods, off to Tennessee. Woods, who tore his ACL in November, will team up with A.J. Brown in what should be a solid receiving corps […]

Allen Robinson Signs With Los Angeles Rams: Fantasy Football Impact

Allen Robinson’s 2021 NFL campaign was the disaster of all disasters, especially for the fantasy football managers who rostered him. Robinson had the worst season of his above-average NFL career.
