Undervalued PPR Targets for Fantasy Football Drafts: Alvin Kamara, Chris Godwin, Jake Ferguson, more
Most fantasy football managers either play in half-PPR or full-PPR leagues. That means drafting running backs, wide receivers, or tight ends who will catch a lot of passes is big.

Kendre Miller Not Helping His Cause
New Orleans Saints head coach Dennis Allen expressed concern when running back Kendre Miller (hamstring) got hurt three weeks ago in training camp about being able to make the team from the training room.

Every Fantasy Football Running Back With a Potential Workhorse Role in 2024
The term “workhorse running back” is nearly ancient history in today’s day and age. Committee backfields have become increasingly popular as the value of running backs as a whole has decreased.

Zero RB Fantasy Football Middle-Round Running Back Draft Targets
Draft strategies like zero running back (Zero RB) can generate uncomfortable conversations and implicit biases. Like any draft strategy, we should consider scoring and roster formats.
