2020 NFL Mock Draft 2.0
With the NFL Draft just one week away, smokescreen season is upon us. Most mock drafters agree on the top three picks, but the draft gets fascinating at pick No. 4. The Giants could trade the pick to a team looking for a quarterback or sit tight and take the best offensive lineman or defensive […]

Early 2020 Sleepers: Wide Receiver
The rookie class is great for receivers in 2020. At least this is what we have been told. Until we can see them in action, I will hold judgment. It was only a few years ago when the same was said for Corey Coleman, Laquon Treadwell and Josh Doctson. So, color me skeptical until it […]

Jets Haven't Had Trade Talks Involving Jamal Adams
New York Jets safety Jamal Adams being traded to the Dallas Cowboys is just a rumor right now, and there haven't been any talks on that front, according to a source close to the situation. The All-Pro safety is underpaid at this point and wants a new long-term deal that could make him one of […]

Jets Interested In Trading Back?
Sources say that New York Jets general manager Joe Douglas is open to dropping a few spots in the first round of next week's draft. Douglas comes from two trade-happy teams (Ravens and Eagles) and could bring the same philosophy to the Jets in his first draft as GM. If New York were to trade […]
Everything On The Table With Jamal Adams
New York Jets safety Jamal Adams remains unhappy heading into the final season of his rookie deal without a long-term contract, and everything remains on the table.

Early 2020 Breakouts: Wide Receiver
What was once the frenetic pace of free agency has now slowed significantly. But the player movement that took place has transformed the fantasy landscape.

Jets Eyeing Henry Ruggs
The New York Jets have the No. 11 pick in the first round in next week's draft, and they will have a big decision to make there. Offensive line remains a big need, but they also need to surround quarterback Sam Darnold with more playmakers, mainly in the passing game. The Jets could have their […]
Tight End Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis
Just a year ago, we were bemoaning how boring the tight end position was in fantasy football. There was Travis Kelce, Zach Ertz, George Kittle and a bunch of scrubs. Everyone else was lumped into an unappealing mass of nonproductivity. Then the season came and names like Darren Waller and Austin Hooper emerged as studs, not […]

Looking For Market Inefficiencies: WR Return On Investment
No matter which type of fantasy owner profile you fit into, you're looking for market inefficiencies as we all are. Why pay an extra-high price for something that ultimately will yield the same results as something similarly good going at a steep discount? That question has no reasonable answer. The question you might be asking […]

Quarterback Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis
A lot has changed at the quarterback position since last year.

We've also seen players like Teddy Bridgewater and Ryan Tannehill seemingly resurrected from the dead. This year's […]
Veterans That May Be Impacted By The NFL Draft
Most of the fun fantasy-centered NFL Draft speculation so far has focused on who will go where, and what teams need offensively. But in this feature, we go deeper.

2020 NFL Early-Draft Exploits: VOA vs. ADP for Wide Receivers
I am introducing three metrics for fantasy football for the 2020 season: Value Over Starter (VOS), Value Over Average (VOA), and Value Over Replacement (VOR). The idea behind the concept was simple: take position scarcity into account and calculate how each player over/underperformed when compared to those with starter/average/replacement value at that concrete position. With that […]
