Wide Receiver ADP Risers and Fallers for Fantasy Football - NFL Free Agency Check
I am going to start this column by reviewing the concept of ADP, which you are likely familiar with.

Running Back Stat Busts: Elusiveness Rating - Ezekiel Elliott, Cordarrelle Patterson and More
A lot of elements go into making a running back desirable for fantasy football. Opportunity, a good offensive line, and a good offense are all key elements.

Dynasty Price Check - D'Andre Swift
Perennially living in the shadow of Jonathan Taylor, Lions running back D'Andre Swift is often overlooked.

Taylor has obviously dominated the fantasy discussion, but could Swift remind us why we thought […]

Quarterback Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis
On the field, quarterbacks are the most crucial position of all. In fantasy football, not so much.

Allen Robinson Signs With Los Angeles Rams: Fantasy Football Impact
Allen Robinson’s 2021 NFL campaign was the disaster of all disasters, especially for the fantasy football managers who rostered him. Robinson had the worst season of his above-average NFL career.

Jameis Winston deserved a better ending to his 2021 season, just like fans of “Seinfeld” and “The Sopranos” deserved better endings to their shows.
