BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: The case for Fitzpatrick is very similar to that of Tyrod Taylor, Mitchell Trubisky, or Derek Carr.

Fool Me Once... Sophomore QBs Set to Bust Again

Here are The King's latest fantasy football rankings in all formats, including PPR, Half PPR, and non-PPR.

Stop That Hype Train! Raheem Mostert

Raheem Mostert went from a special teams ace to the top tailback on a Super Bowl team faster than a greyhound chases a mechanical rabbit around a racetrack.
