Heroes and Zeroes - Week 15 Fantasy Football Picks
Let's start by addressing the fluffy, pink elephant wearing a tutu and dancing on your forehead in the room, which is the fact that you're here looking for QB advice because you've ridden Carson Wentz to the playoffs and now he's gone.

Coming into Sunday, this was one of the best cards we’ve had yet. It lived up to its potential. And then some.

Futures Market - Dynasty League Wide Receivers
Last week, we looked at running backs in dynasty leagues. This time around, we try and decipher the wide receiver position. Unlike those in the backfield, those on the outside can rise and fade quickly like the tides. Two years ago, Randall Cobb had a third-round ADP and was a keeper for many fantasy owners. This […]
