DeVante Parker Focused On Improvement
Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker is looking to take the next step in 2020. While making an appearance on NFL Network's Good Morning Football, the 27-year-old emphasized a heightened-focus on his diet and training regimen during the offseason.

Finding Great Running Back-Offensive Line Pairings
Sometimes fantasy GMs focus too much on raw, counting stats for running backs. How many yards did they rush for? How many touchdowns did they score? Perhaps, taking it one step further, they end looking at some "manufactured" numbers such as yards per carry, yards after contact, etc... But there is something more that correlates […]

Spotting Horrific Running Back-Offensive Line Pairings
Sometimes fantasy GMs focus too much on raw, counting stats for running backs. How many yards did they rush for? How many touchdowns did they score? Perhaps, taking it one step further, they end looking at some "manufactured" numbers such as yards per carry, yards after contact, etc... But there is something more that correlates […]

Boom or Bust - Quarterback Predictions for 2020
Quarterbacks are frequently devalued in drafts compared to their running back and wide receiver peers, and for good reason. Despite being the highest-scoring position in fantasy football in most systems, many drafters will take multiple players at other positions before taking a quarterback. A large tier of serviceable yet interchangeable passers typically exists each year, […]
Cheap and Forgotten Players With Great Upside
As fantasy GMs, there are some things we'll never learn. One of them: forgiveness. Be it a bad stretch of games, a down season, an injury-riddled year, or even just a dropped catch on a would-have-been big play, we often put names on our never-again draft list. That happens every year in fantasy football. You […]
Engel's Angles: The DK Metcalf Love Affair Is Real
When I have watched the NFL over the years, it has always been fun to pinpoint the moments when I realize that some players are just going to be special. One of the first times I recall saying “this player is going to be very good” was when I watched a young Brett Favre handle […]
Rookies Expected to Struggle Early in 2020
If you know how DFS football works, then you know every week you have the chance to pick the best-looking players for the scheduled slate of games. For those playing season-long leagues, that's not an option. Once you draft your team you must stick to your decisions and only make minimal tweaks through the waiver […]
Early ADP Variations: Yahoo's Overvalued and Undervalued Players
Every fantasy football platform is different. There are the obvious ways they differ -- the way their apps look, the different drafting interfaces, etc. -- but there are also less obvious ways they differ. One of those ways is how their rankings and ADP look. Because there's no such thing as a universal rankings order […]

Drafting League-Winners In Rounds 9-16
We've already run through the early rounds in Part 1 to find potential league winners in 2020 fantasy football drafts. Now, we move to the latter half of the draft. The term "league winner" is one that is too often thrown around in fantasy football. Often it is used without even being defined. To me, a […]
Overvalued RB Handcuffs Getting Too Expensive
Who doesn't love to draft a player late and see him blossom into a league winner? That can often be the case with running back handcuffs covering for starters that fall down to injury or enter the season holding out. Drafting a no. 2 running back late, or even getting him from waivers close to […]
Don't Let Go: Players to Hold in Dynasty
Dynasty leagues require a lot of patience. After all, building a consistent, winning team takes time. It takes a keen eye for talent. It takes luck. And it takes the ability to recognize that sometimes you have to use a roster spot on someone who won't give you much in the short term, but who […]

RB Handcuffs to Target: AFC Edition
Continuing the theme of the offseason, we will be looking at the AFC teams this week to establish who the handcuffs to target are in your fantasy drafts. Again, a handcuff isn’t necessarily going to be someone that has stand-alone value (think David Montgomery and Tarik Cohen for the Bears). My last article looked at […]
PPR Draft Targets - Undervalued Tight Ends
For fantasy football GMs, draft season is gearing up. Preparing for what is waiting for us in our virtual war-rooms is a key part of the process, and the first thing to know is the format of the league we're going to be part of. The difference between Standard and PPR (Point-Per-Reception) scoring systems is […]
Don't Count Out These Quarterback Sleepers
It's time to dig deep. In fact, it's time to dig deeper. Everybody knows who is a top-tier fantasy asset. Everybody has a clear picture of who to target in the middle rounds of their drafts. That is why you need to study the full roster of available players and look for low-valued bargains with huge […]

Dolphins Haven't Discussed Extension With Matt Breida
The Miami Dolphins have yet to discuss a contract extension with running back Matt Breida after giving up the No. 153 overall pick in April's draft to acquire him from the 49ers. The running back is scheduled for unrestricted free agency after the 2020 season and is scheduled to make $3.3 million in the final […]
Diontae Johnson: Breakout or Break-Ouch?
Every fantasy analyst and their dog seems to have Diontae Johnson on their 2020 breakout list. Despite last year’s accomplishments, which prime him for a breakout campaign in 2020, I would be lying if I said I wasn’t underwhelmed by my further statistical and film analysis. The 2019 third-round pick managed to have a very […]
Five Overvalued Running Backs to Fade?
Fantasy football is a game of values. Sure, it is much more complex than that. But in its simplest form, we are all trying to find the best values to put the best team on the virtual gridiron as possible. We all seek sleepers and players that can break out and give our fantasy teams […]
Yardage Regression Candidates - Wide Receiver
While touchdowns are the most coveted play outcome for wide receivers in fantasy football, total receiving yards must be taken into serious consideration when deciding who to draft for the position. It is true that receivers have to work harder to rack up yards, and that they don't have an overly great value at only […]
Five Questions About the 2020 NFL Season You Want Answered
Back in 2001, Denzel Washington treated us to one of the most legendary acting performances of all time with his portrayal of Alonzo Harris in Training Day. Among his countless memorable moments in that masterpiece of a crime drama are the times he repeatedly reminds bright-eyed rookie Jake Hoyt, "It's not what you know. It's what […]
Engel's Angles: Favorite Fantasy Draft Targets by Round
You will never hear me say I was “sniped” on a fantasy football draft pick. I have several players queued up in every round and just take the top one remaining when it is my turn. Of course, though, there are players I prefer in each round if I can get them. These are my […]
Jordan Howard, Matt Breida To Complement Each Other
Miami Dolphins running backs Jordan Howard and Matt Breida are expected to share the backfield this season after the team finished last in rushing yards and last in yards per rush in 2019. Howard will offer power and is expected to be the short-yardage and goal-line back, while Breida delivers speed. Howard is third in […]
