Running Back "Dead Zone" - What Is It and Do You Really Need to Avoid It for Fantasy Football Drafts?
Some controversies will never be settled. Did Franco Harris catch the pass? Did Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon? Should Trey Lance start over Dak Prescott? With that said, there's no hotter controversy on Fantasy Football Twitter than the so-called "running back dead zone." Does it exist or not? What is it even? Let's […]

Running Back Committees to Target for Fantasy Football Drafts - A.J. Dillon, Tyler Allgeier, David Montgomery, more
Running. Back. Committee. One of the scariest phrases in fantasy football. Just typing that gave me chills. Fantasy football managers often avoid backfield committees, and for good reason.

Must-Haves For PPR: Fantasy Football Draft Targets Include Darren Waller, Amon-Ra St. Brown, James Conner, more
Full-point PPR is a unique beast. Unlike its more popular younger brother, Half-PPR, receptions can truly make or break a player's fantasy football impact. I believe one of the most overlooked aspects of PPR is finding volume on bad teams. These are unlikely to be the most popular names, but they are the ones that […]
Quarterback Superflex (2QB) Targets for Fantasy Football Drafts
Playing Superflex in fantasy football is a completely different animal. Unlike 1QB leagues, starting quarterbacks are usually never available on the waiver wire and they go a lot faster in the draft. In most Superflex leagues you can expect at least 6 QBs to go in the first round. It is this occurrence of supply […]

Five Very Deep Sleepers For 2023 Fantasy Football Drafts - Rashee Rice, Marvin Mims Jr., Deuce Vaughn, more
Sometimes, you end up playing in some really deep leagues. 14 teams. 16 teams. Probably not something wild like an 18-team league or anything, but you never know. I did a 30-team NBA dynasty league a few years ago. In those deeper leagues, the criteria for what makes a player a "sleeper" changes. Players like […]
NFFC Undervalued, Overvalued Fantasy Football Draft Picks - Deshaun Watson, Isiah Pacheco, Davante Adams, more

The NFFC Platinum League has a $20,000 entry fee and a $160,000 prize. Their ADP rankings are pretty sharp, but even those who compete in high-stakes leagues make mistakes. Here […]
Impact Rookie Wide Receivers for 2023 Fantasy Football - Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Jordan Addison, more
One of the critical mistakes that a fantasy football manager can make during the draft season is ignoring the rookies. Most of the die-hard players are well-informed on the rookies before the NFL draft takes place.

How To Use Key NFL Storylines To Your Advantage In Fantasy Football Drafts
A number of years ago, I listened to an amazing podcast series from Freakonomics Radio, “What makes a successful CEO?” The unique answer that they arrived at has truly resonated with me.

Deeper League Tight End Sleepers for 2023 Fantasy Football Drafts - Gerald Everett, Tyler Conklin, Irv Smith, more
The tight end position in fantasy football is always tricky to navigate. Travis Kelce has been a remarkably dominant presence and offered a unique advantage over the last half-decade. But there are usually only a few more players at the position that present real upside. That said, not every fantasy manager will walk away from […]

The New York Jets released veteran wide receiver Alex Erickson on Monday, according to a source. Erickson was a preseason standout, catching two touchdown passes in Saturday's finale, so he could be a candidate to rejoin the team's practice squad entering the 2023 regular season. If the 30-year-old doesn't return to the Jets' practice squad, […]
Jets Waive Zonovan Knight Monday
The New York Jets waived running back Zonovan Knight on Monday, according to a source. Knight received some interest on the trade market, which could indicate that a team will claim him on Wednesday.

Tight End Superflex (2QB) Targets for Fantasy Football Drafts
The 2022 fantasy football arena when it came to tight ends was like navigating a barren wasteland.

At 33, the man is still out there running routes like he's sipping from the Fountain […]
Cheap Quarterback–Wide Receiver Stacks to Consider for Redraft Fantasy Football in 2023
There are countless strategies to fantasy football and one of them that has grown in popularity, especially in Best Ball leagues is stacking. Stacking is the practice of drafting both the quarterback and their primary pass-catcher from the same team. This turns a touchdown into 10.5 points without even factoring in whatever yardage the duo […]
Mekhi Becton Wins Starting Right-Tackle Spot
New York Jets offensive tackle Mekhi Becton has won the team's starting right-tackle spot to start the 2023 regular season. Becton, the former 11th overall pick in 2020 out of Louisville, was able to return to the practice field this summer after dealing with knee injuries the last several seasons. He managed to play well […]

New York Jets wide receiver Alex Erickson hauled in all five of his targets for 38 yards and two touchdowns in the team's 32-24 preseason victory over the New York Giants.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson secured all three of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in the team's 32-24 preseason win against the New York Giants.
