UDFA Pass Catchers To Watch In Dynasty

One place where fantasy value can be found is in the large crop of players who sign as undrafted free agents. Just because a receiver wasn't taken in the first seven rounds doesn't mean that they aren't good players. Often, very talented players don't hear their names called during the draft, but they'll latch on […]

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 […]

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 […]

Jets Working Out Tavon Austin

The New York Jets are working out veteran free-agent wide receiver Tavon Austin on Wednesday, according to a source. Austin played for the San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers last season, but he caught just five passes for 20 yards in four games. The 31-year-old was a bust with the Rams after they took […]

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 […]

NFL Rookie Spotlight - Trey Lance

When the San Francisco 49ers moved up from 12 to three in the 2021 NFL Draft, we were all told it was for Mac Jones. Some believed this façade and others not so much. Whether you did or did not, it was Trey Lance who ended up going to the cozy confines of a Kyle […]

Which Rookie QB Can Turn Their Franchise Around?

Last Thursday, the annual NFL Draft happened in Cleveland, but you know this already, reader. And you also know that the Jaguars drafted Trevor Lawrence with the No. 1 overall pick. You also know that five quarterbacks were taken in the first round. But, will any of those players be able to turn around the […]

Quinnen Williams Has Successful Surgery

New York Jets star defensive lineman Quinnen Williams (foot) underwent successful surgery on Thursday to fix a broken bone in his foot, according to a source informed of the situation. The surgery was performed by Dr. Robert Anderson. Head coach Robert Saleh said the team is expecting Williams to be back by training camp this […]

Jets Release Josh Doctson

The New York Jets released former first-round wide receiver Josh Doctson on Friday. Doctson never actually played a snap for the Jets after opting out of the 2020 season due to COVID-19. The Jets also cut cornerback Kyron Brown, tight end Connor Davis, offensive lineman Leo Koloamatangi, kicker Chase McLaughlin and wide receiver Jaleel Scott […]

Veteran Wide Receivers Set to Lose Targets in 2021

As players change teams and rookies are added through the NFL draft, there is a discernable impact on veteran wide receivers, specifically their projected volume. The constant turnover in the NFL could result in a wide receiver that saw a high target share one year suddenly become an afterthought. Here are a handful of experienced […]

Waste of Talent: Rookies in Bad Landing Spots

The days after the NFL Draft are the ultimate hype festival. It's like going to SXSW and thinking every band you see in a random bar is going to be the next big thing. Then you get home, and within a month, you've forgotten the names of over half of those bands. That's the draft. […]

NFL Draft Reaction - RB ADP Risers

We've already looked at QB ADP Risers and TE ADP Risers following the 2021 NFL Draft. Now, let's look at the most heavily-scrutinized position of all - running back. By now, with free agency and the draft finalized and just a few players left to be signed, it makes sense to look at how ADPs are […]

Surprising Winners from the NFL Draft - Wide Receivers

The NFL Draft has come and gone, so we now have a complete picture of each team's plans on offense. While we'll still see some player movement before the season begins, aside from an Aaron Rodgers or Zach Ertz trade, there won't be anything that really moves the needle. There were some surprising decisions in the draft where […]

Quinnen Williams To Miss 8-10 Weeks

New York Jets defensive lineman Quinnen Williams (foot) broke a small bone in his foot and likely will undergo surgery that will keep him out for eight to 10 weeks, according to sources. Williams will miss organized team activities and minicamp, but he should be ready to return for training camp this summer. The 23-year-old […]

Early 2021 Running Back Sleepers

Even with the NFL being a passing league these days, running backs still rule the roost in fantasy football. You cannot win a fantasy football league without a decent pair of high-caliber running backs, and many times you need three above-average backs to win thanks to injuries, bye weeks, COVID outbreaks, and because you can […]

They Took Who??? The Most Confusing NFL Draft Picks

Every year, the NFL holds a draft, and every year during that draft, 32 NFL teams make decisions that will positively impact the team going forward. But every year, some teams also make decisions that are...confusing. Confounding. Puzzling. Whatever adjective you want to use, teams make decisions that leave us, the outsiders watching the draft, […]

Instant Reaction: 2021 NFL Draft Rounds 4-7 Winners/Losers

The 2021 NFL Draft finished up on Saturday, with the final four rounds taking place. And while those rounds didn't feature the big names like No. 1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence, they did feature a bunch of other names! And many of those names will have an impact on the fantasy football landscape moving forward. […]

Fantasy football is all about players that can make an impact on your team. You need guys who can be consistent and provide solid […]

Jets Select Michael Carter

With the 107th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the New York Jets have addressed their running back need by taking North Carolina's Michael Carter. Heading into the draft, the Jets running back room consisted of Lamical Perine, Ty Johnson, Tevin Coleman, and Josh Adams, so there's some clear space for Carter to get onto […]

Instant Reaction: 2021 NFL Draft Round 1 Winners/Losers

The 2021 NFL Draft started on Thursday night and, just like we all expected for months (years?), Trevor Lawrence was the first overall pick. And after that, the draft didn't really get as wild as many expected it would be, though there were still some surprises. We're through one round of the draft now, which […]

Jets Take Elijah Moore In Round 2

The New York Jets added Ole Miss wide receiver Elijah Moore with the No. 34 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. The 21-year-old finished the 2020 campaign with nearly 2,000 receiving yards while racking up eight touchdowns off of 86 catches. With Zach Wilson now under center, Moore has the potential to make a mark […]

NFL Mock Draft - 2nd and 3rd Rounds

The first round of the 2021 NFL Draft is in the books, but the second night is just as important.  There is still premium talent available, and expect to see teams moving around the board to get their targets. This year's second day will feature a talented duo of North Carolina backs, a speedy Notre […]

Below are the results from Days 1 and 2, along with live updates from Day 3 (Rounds 4-7) I have been updating the mock draft very frequently as I have in years past.

Alijah Vera-Tucker Heading To New York

The Jets selected USC guard Alijah Vera-Tucker with the 14th overall selection in the 2021 NFL Draft. With New York taking Zach Wilson out of BYU with the No. 2 overall pick, the team added some adequate protection to upgrade one of the worst offensive lines in the league. Arguably the best guard available, Vera-Tucker's […]
