Jordan Matthews - 2018 Fantasy Football Sleeper
I thought Jordan Matthews had sleeper appeal even before Julian Edelman was caught cheating. While Matthews' ADP has risen a bit, by no means is he costly.

Evan Engram vs 2018 Tight End Rookie Class
Oftentimes, the learning curve for tight ends entering the NFL is extremely high.

2018 Fantasy Football Rankings Analysis - Wide Receivers (Standard)
The pass-happy NFL was not as receiver-friendly in 2017 as it was the year before. Running the ball made a comeback this past season, as did spreading the ball around to many different pass catchers instead of zoning in one guy all the time. 24 wide receivers broke the 1,000-yard barrier in 2016, compared to […]
