Dynasty RB Rankings Analysis (June)
As we draw ever-closer to NFL training camps, dynasty owners are gearing up for drafts already. Many rookie drafts have already begun, but the best is the dynasty startup where you get to create a new franchise from scratch. Dynasty is a different beast than redraft, so you need to know how to value each […]
Evan Engram vs 2018 Tight End Rookie Class
Oftentimes, the learning curve for tight ends entering the NFL is extremely high. A common trend among NFL coaches is to draft several tight ends and develop them for a few years as blockers and receivers before letting them have a significant portion of the team's offensive snaps/target share. For fantasy football, the tight end […]
Running Back Handcuffs Worth Drafting as Standalone Players
I've never been a handcuff enthusiast. I don't think it's an effective strategy. If I draft Kareem Hunt this year, I don't want Spencer Ware. He would just sit on my bench and have no chance at being a useful asset...unless Hunt goes down. I don't want Hunt to go down and I certainly would […]
The Million Dollar Question - RB or WR in 2018?
What’s up fantasy Jabronis? I’m taking a stab at answering the biggest question of all: What is the meaning of life? Is there life on other planets? What does wearing pleated pants in today's age say about you? Nope. You’ll have to ask el Camello or Raphstradamus about the pants. But I am here to […]
Kyle Richardson's Dynasty Sell List (Premium Content)
All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. ADP can be a tricky tool to use at times. Some owners find it useful and others hate it. If you follow me on Twitter, you know I love to tweet something I call “ADP games”. Even if you don’t think the information is […]

If at First You Don't Succeed... Second-Year NFL Breakouts
Do you remember your first year playing fantasy football? I can't talk about myself because I was 14 at the time and everyone in my league was essentially playing for the first time. But over the years, as I got older, I saw plenty of friends introduced to the world of fantasy sports. Many of […]
2018 Standard Rankings Analysis (June) - Tight Ends
It is a great time for tight ends in the NFL and in fantasy football! Tight ends are going to be all the rage for fantasy football owners in 2018, just like open-concept layouts and barn doors are the rage for people buying new houses. Fantasy owners can choose from grizzled veterans who have been […]

How Should We Value David Johnson?
David Johnson's season, and many of his fantasy owners' seasons, ended abruptly during Week 1 of the 2017 NFL Season. Fantasy's number one ranked player suffered a dislocated wrist that required season-ending surgery. Todd Gurley took over the mantle of fantasy football's best player and enters 2018 as the likely number one pick. Johnson is […]
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 […]

ADP Arbitrage - Mid-round Players to Target in Redraft
You can and probably will do mock drafts every week until the cows come home, but based on the likes, dislikes and sometimes erratic decisions of your league mates, you can never be certain just how your particular situation will end up on draft night. That means that there is a chance that you miss […]

2018 Fantasy Football Rankings Analysis - Tight End (Half-PPR)
Unfortunately, tight ends as a position have been losing value in the NFL for quite a while. Gone are the days where tight ends were fantasy points machines, as teams are spreading the ball more and more and using their tight ends as blockers. However, there are still several high-performance tight ends in the league […]
2018 Fantasy Football Rankings Analysis - Wide Receivers (Half-PPR)
The last few years has seen a fall from grace for the wide receiver position in fantasy football formats. Due to the changes in offensive structures of teams (more of them spreading the ball around), the list of top wide receivers has become smaller and smaller. However, that does not mean that there are still […]
2018 Fantasy Football Rankings Analysis - Running Backs (Half-PPR)
Aside from quarterbacks, no other position has more depth than running backs. Even in half-ppr formats, workhorse and satellite backs alike can thrive on the fantasy gridiron. Because fantasy owners have been treated with a plethora of talented options at this position, you can find top talent after the first few rounds of the draft […]
Let It Go - Players To Drop In Dynasty Leagues
Sometimes we can get a bit carried away as fantasy owners, especially in dynasty. Building a roster that sustains success over a period of years can blind our vision of what truly is. Dynasty owners need to dig deeper and take more risks. The biggest risks can be holding onto players for too long. Maybe […]

Saints Signing Terrance West
The New Orleans Saints are signing free-agent running back Terrance West on Wednesday, according to a source. West dealt with injuries last season and ran just 39 times for 138 yards and two touchdowns in five games for the Ravens. He'll compete for a backup role to give the Saints depth with Mark Ingram suspended […]
DeMarco Murray Turns Down Workout With Saints
Free-agent running back DeMarco Murray declined a workout invitation with the New Orleans Saints, according to a source. He is still waiting for the right opportunity, but he may have to wait until training camp to sign with a team. Murray battled nagging injuries with the Titans last year and had a career-low 3.6 yards […]

Tim Hightower Trying Out For Saints
Free-agent running back Tim Hightower, who spent all of 2017 out of the league, is working out with the New Orleans Saints on a tryout basis this week. The veteran running back has a history with the team, playing with them from 2015-2016, but he'd be nothing more than a depth signing to open the […]
Terrance West To Visit Saints
Free-agent running back Terrance West will visit the New Orleans Saints on Wednesday, according to a source. West would just be a depth signing to open the season with Mark Ingram slated to be suspended for the first four games. In just five games for Baltimore in 2017, West had 39 carries for 138 yards […]
Jamaal Charles To Visit With Saints
Free-agent running back Jamaal Charles will visit with the New Orleans Saints on Wednesday, according to a source. Charles carried the ball only 69 times for 296 yards (4.3 yards per carry) and one touchdown in 14 games for the Broncos last season, and the veteran running back doesn't have much left at this point […]

Marcus Davenport Needs Thumb Surgery
New Orleans Saints rookie defensive end Marcus Davenport (thumb), who the team traded up into the first round to select, suffered a thumb injury and will need surgery. However, he's expected to wait until after training camp to have the surgery. It's a minor injury. Davenport shouldn't need to miss the start of the regular […]
