Rob Gronkowski Feeling Much Better This Season

O.J. Howard (TE, TB) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~230 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~260 ANALYSIS: After tearing his Achilles tendon in Week 4 of last season, O.J.

Kickers Rankings - Who to Target in Drafts
The calls to abolish kickers in fantasy football seem to grow by the year, but most leagues continue to use them. They matter. If they matter to the games on Sunday, they should matter to fantasy football, as well. Are they random? Of course, they are. But isn't fantasy football in general? When Mecole Hardman […]
Deeper Wide Receiver Sleepers to Target
With two weeks until the start of the NFL season, many fantasy managers are moving from participating in best-ball leagues to starting to prepare for redraft and home leagues.

Must-Have Backup Running Backs
After a turbulent season in 2020, Week 1 is right around the corner. Historically, most leagues aren't won by who is taken in the first few rounds of fantasy drafts.

Rashod Bateman (WR, BAL) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~180 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~215 ANALYSIS: The passing volume in Baltimore is not ideal.
