Tim Tebow Could Be Used In Taysom Hill Role

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Tim Tebow could be used as more than a traditional tight end, similar to how the New Orleans Saints previously used Taysom Hill. It means that the Jaguars might prefer to use Tebow in more of a super-utility role as a tight end, blocker, H-back, running back type of player as […]

Take Advantage of Preseason Panic! FFPC Best-Ball Value Picks

That said, we have plenty of drama because of a couple of high-profile players making headlines off the field. Then there are the smaller stories that also impact […]

Running Back Stat Busts - Elusiveness Rating

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. However, something equally important is how elusive those running backs are, this includes breaking tackles and gaining yards after contact. Often, players who have these traits fall into […]

Stack 'Em - Teams With Favorable Late/Post-Season Schedules

The NFL has just put together and released the 2021 season schedule. The league did its homework and created the path to the Super Bowl for the 32 teams that are part of this footballing circus, which now includes an extra week of play in what would amount to be the first 17-game season in […]

NFL Draft Winners - Dynasty League Risers

After countless mocks, rampant speculation, and media smokescreens, the 2021 NFL Draft proved unpredictable as ever. Several teams got what they hope is their eventual franchise quarterback. Running backs continue to be devalued while wide receivers flew off the board early and often. The subsequent domino effect on veteran players will shake things up for […]

Daniel Jones Set Up for Success - Will It Work?

Given his status as a surprising top-10 pick in the 2019 NFL draft and a relatively successful rookie season, the 2020 season was seen as a make-or-break year for Daniel Jones for many NFL fans. Unfortunately, Jones (and the Giant’s offense as a whole) struggled to take the next step around the second-year signal-caller. The […]

Dynasty Value of the 2021 Rookie Quarterbacks

Not in recent memory have we seen a team bluff and fake-out the media and general public like the San Francisco 49ers just did when they convinced most that they prized the plus-sized Winklevoss cousin known as Mac Jones at pick #3. They didn't take Jones, though, and they blew up many mock drafts in […]

Surprising Winners from the NFL Draft - Tight End

This wasn’t a particularly strong draft class at the tight end. Out of 259 prospects drafted in the 2021 NFL draft, just 11 of them play the tight end position. There were only five positions that had fewer players taken over the course of seven rounds, and three of those positions were kicker, fullback, and […]

Saints Draft Kawaan Baker

With the 255th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the New Orleans Saints have selected South Alabama wide receiver Kawaan Baker. A slot receiver with some nice speed, Baker had 51 receptions for 659 yards and eight touchdowns last year. He could be used as a gadget player and see some work in the backfield, […]

Paulson Adebo Joining The Saints

The New Orleans Saints selected Stanford cornerback Paulson Adebo with the No. 76 overall pick in the third round of the 2021 NFL draft on Friday night. Adebo is a lengthy ball hawk at 6-foot-1, 192 pounds. He isn't all that agile, but he makes up for it by reading the opposing quarterbacks eyes and […]

Saints Select Payton Turner With 28th Pick

The New Orleans Saints selected Houston defensive end Payton Turner with the No. 28 overall pick in the first round of the 2021 NFL draft on Thursday night.
