Wide Receivers Set To Return To Top-Tier Status
Finding players to provide your lineup with a high floor is essential to winning any fantasy championship. When it comes to fantasy football, no position has a greater ability to provide that high floor than wide receiver. Unfortunately, wide receiver also provides a high level of volatility from year to year. With so many talented […]

Tight End PPR Rankings, Tiers & Analysis
Fantasy football players probably hope the 2020 NFL season is better for tight ends than the 2019 season was. 2018 was arguably the greatest year for tight ends in the history of the NFL and fantasy football thanks to Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz setting the single-season record for receptions and San Francisco’s George Kittle setting the […]

A.J. Dillon - Fantasy Football Rookie Spotlight
The Packers defied expectations (and logic) by selecting players other than wide receivers in this past NFL Draft. This includes a running back in the second round, A.J. Dillon out of Boston College. There were plenty of backs taken in the draft who are expected to take on a large role out of the gate. Dillon […]
Forget Zero RB, Grab Two RBs ASAP
Remember a few years ago when Zero RB was a big thing? For those of you who are not sure what that is, it is a fantasy football strategy where you wait to take an running back and load up on wide receivers and other position players early on. That strategy was fun and may […]

What Will The Rams Offense Look Like in 2020?

Aaron Donald Not Worried About Offseason Training
Los Angeles Rams All-Pro defensive tackle Aaron Donald seems unconcerned about the additional pressure pandemic protocol might place on his offseason training. Appearing in a conference call with the media on Thursday, Donald not-so-subtly showed off how his offseason workouts have gone by featuring a shirtless background photo of him flexing like he's being featured […]
Rams Are Inexperienced At Linebacker
Los Angeles Rams linebacker Travin Howard looks to be the likely successor to Cory Littleton in 2020. Micah Kiser is the favorite to start on the inside on running downs. Howard and Kiser have combined for 103 career defensive snaps, so the Rams linebacking corps is definitely inexperienced. Outside of All-Pro defensive tackle and star […]
Van Jefferson May Struggle For Immediate Role
Los Angeles Rams rookie wide receiver Van Jefferson, a second-round pick, could play more than Josh Reynolds in the long run, but Reynolds should have an immediate role in 2020 as an outside receiver now that Brandin Cooks is out of town. Jefferson did his best work in college on the inside, but the Rams […]
Cam Akers Could Lead Committee Backfield For Rams
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that all options are on the table in 2020 as the team moves forward without Todd Gurley in the backfield after the last five seasons.

Tight Ends to Prioritize or Fade in Standard vs. PPR Leagues
It feels impossible--even more with the current pandemic we're experiencing still ongoing worldwide--but the NFL offseason can be considered over in terms of high-impact moves. The first-year draft and free agency are long gone, most players have extended their deals or found new homes, and teams are ready to start moving the rock come the […]
Veteran WRs Set to Lose Targets in 2020
Turnover exists in all work places. The NFL is no exception. As far as professional sports go, the NFL has more turnover than the rest. Between free agency, trades, and the draft, player situations undergo significant and sometimes unexpected changes. Each year, a new crop of rookies enters the league and aging or underperforming veterans […]

Cam Akers Has Chance To Be Leading Man In LA
Los Angeles Rams rookie running back Cam Akers, a second-round pick at 52nd overall, has a good shot at becoming the team's leading running back in his first season.
