Adam Koffler's Bold Predictions for the 2022 Fantasy Football Season

If you don't appreciate a good bold prediction, you don't like fun. Bold predictions are inherently fun and elicit strong reactions from lots of people.

Must-Have Players for Fantasy Football - Standard Leagues (Non-PPR)

Does anyone play in standard leagues anymore?
