Fantasy Football Dynasty League Price Check – George Pickens
Pittsburgh receiver George Pickens is the type of player fantasy general managers in dynasty football leagues wish they got their grubby hands on last season when he looked as lost as a kindergartener who just missed the bus.

2024 NFL Draft Predictions - Will The Vikings Trade Up For A QB?

Avoid These Tight Ends in 2024: Fantasy Football Outlook
My friend Andrew Cooper (@CoopAFiasco on X) says it all the time. To be a top-producing tight end for fantasy football, you have to be one of two things, an athletic freak or a top-2 target earner on your team. Preferably both, with a lean toward being a top-2 target earner first. But it's an […]

2024 NFL Draft - Making The Case For Malik Nabers As WR1
In almost any other NFL Draft, Malik Nabers would be the betting favorite to be the first wide receiver selected. Unfortunately for him, he happens to be in the same draft class as the son of a Hall of Fame wideout (no, not that one). Marvin Harrison Jr. has been atop draft boards for many […]

Is Ezekiel Elliott a Free Agent? Top Landing Spots for Elliott This Offseason
It was a surprise to most when the Dallas Cowboys cut running back Ezekiel Elliott before the 2023 season. Elliott -- who had 8,262 career rush yards in Dallas -- was a key part of that offense for seven years. For cap purposes, though, it made sense as the team saved $10.9 million. Soon after […]
