Dynasty Market Watch: NFC South

The NFC South has been full of fantasy talent for several years now. Some of the better players in the game reside in this division and are popular selections at the top of drafts. Players like Christian McCaffrey and Michael Thomas are firmly inside the first round in redraft leagues and are cornerstones for dynasty […]

The King's Fantasy Football One-Man Mock Draft

This is my latest one-man mock exercise of 2020 as the new season inches closer. I put myself in the draft chairs and minds of every owner in an advance look at the 2020 season. The four rounds of this early one-man mock are based on a 12-team, full PPR format. I have considered roster […]

Damien Harris is the Answer at RB for New England

As it currently stands, the New England Patriots' backfield is a mess. For the most part, this is more-so by design rather than personnel. The Patriots run one of the heaviest split backfields in the NFL from year-to-year. We would be in the right to call Bill Belichick a "Running Backs Don't Matter" truther, save […]

Players Poised To Start Strong With Soft Early Schedules

It's been more than two months since the NFL released the full 17-week schedules for the 2020 season. We have no idea if we will get to actually watch any football during the upcoming fall and winter, but here's to hoping. If we make it there, though, the strength of schedule will always make a […]

Ronald Jones II Training Hard This Offseason

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II has been rigorously training this offseason in preparation for the 2020 season. Per The Athletic's Greg Auman, the 22-year-old has gotten up to 225 pounds and has been practicing catching roughly 300 footballs per day. This will be an important season for the USC product, as Tampa […]

What Are the Chances of Back-To-Back Top-12 Finishes? (Part Two)

In this two-part series, I'm taking a look at fantasy data (PPR format) from 2000 to 2019 in order to see how often it is for football players to finish two consecutive seasons inside the top tiers of fantasy leagues, and if they're actually worth paying the high prices they have attached to them. Part […]

Cheap and Forgotten Players With Great Upside

As fantasy GMs, there are some things we'll never learn. One of them: forgiveness. Be it a bad stretch of games, a down season, an injury-riddled year, or even just a dropped catch on a would-have-been big play, we often put names on our never-again draft list. That happens every year in fantasy football. You […]

Engel's Angles: The DK Metcalf Love Affair Is Real

When I have watched the NFL over the years, it has always been fun to pinpoint the moments when I realize that some players are just going to be special. One of the first times I recall saying “this player is going to be very good” was when I watched a young Brett Favre handle […]

Rookies Expected to Struggle Early in 2020

If you know how DFS football works, then you know every week you have the chance to pick the best-looking players for the scheduled slate of games. For those playing season-long leagues, that's not an option. Once you draft your team you must stick to your decisions and only make minimal tweaks through the waiver […]

Early ADP Variations: Yahoo's Overvalued and Undervalued Players

Every fantasy football platform is different. There are the obvious ways they differ -- the way their apps look, the different drafting interfaces, etc. -- but there are also less obvious ways they differ. One of those ways is how their rankings and ADP look. Because there's no such thing as a universal rankings order […]

Deep Wide Receiver Sleepers to Target

It's time to dig deep. In fact, it's time to dig deeper. Everybody knows who is a top-tier fantasy asset. Everybody has a clear picture of who to target in the mid-rounds of their drafts. That is why you need to study the full roster of available players and look for low-valued bargains with huge upside. […]

Late-Round Tight Ends Who Will Outperform Their ADP

Show me a tight end, and I'll show you a rolling dice. And most probably, one with way more than six faces. Fantasy football is not new. We are not new to fantasy football either. Everybody goes by the strategy of drafting RB/WR, RB/WR, RB/WR (ad infinitum), QB, TE, rest of the bunch. There are […]

Don't Count Out These Quarterback Sleepers

It's time to dig deep. In fact, it's time to dig deeper. Everybody knows who is a top-tier fantasy asset. Everybody has a clear picture of who to target in the middle rounds of their drafts. That is why you need to study the full roster of available players and look for low-valued bargains with huge […]

Shaquil Barrett Files Grievance To Be Tagged As Defensive End

Tampa Bay Buccaneers pass-rusher Shaquil Barrett is signing his franchise tender on Friday and has filed a grievance against the team that he should be tagged as a defensive end and not as a linebacker. The franchise tag for a linebacker pays around $15.8 million, while the tag for a defensive end pays around $17.8 […]

Donovan Smith Says Playing During Pandemic Not Worth The Risk

Tampa Bay Buccaneers left tackle Donovan Smith expressed his concerns about playing football during the coronavirus pandemic. Expecting his first child in three weeks, Smith is rightfully questioning how the league will keep players and their families safe. These concerns are warranted, considering that social distancing is effectively impossible on a football field. In addition […]

Stud Wide Receivers You Should Worry About in 2020

The words sleeper and busts get thrown around by the fantasy community more than anything. You will often hear though that sleepers do not exist anymore. Well, there is no one at all arguing that there are no busts anymore. There are plenty of busts each and every season. And drafting a player that busts […]

What Are the Chances of Back-To-Back Top-12 Finishes? (Part One)

We're entering the second half of 2020 and the hottest part of the summer, which means we're starting to get our feet wet in the draft-season waters.

Yardage Regression Candidates - Wide Receiver

While touchdowns are the most coveted play outcome for wide receivers in fantasy football, total receiving yards must be taken into serious consideration when deciding who to draft for the position. It is true that receivers have to work harder to rack up yards, and that they don't have an overly great value at only […]

Baltimore Ravens 2020 Fantasy Outlook

The Baltimore Ravens arrived last season. They ran roughshod over teams with a brutal and historic rushing attack en route to a 14-2 record and the top seed in the AFC. They handed an undefeated Patriots squad their first loss and QB Lamar Jackson silenced doubters by putting up fantastic, record numbers. Unfortunately, the Ravens […]

Back in 2001, Denzel Washington treated us to one of the most legendary acting performances of all time with his portrayal of Alonzo Harris in Training Day.

Target Regression Candidates - Wide Receiver

I don't know how many times I've written this during the past few weeks, but here we go again: no matter how good a pass-catcher is, if he's not targeted often he will have no way to rack up fantasy points. With opportunities come chances to score points. Without them, catches are literally out of […]

Buccaneers Not Interested In Signing Antonio Brown

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are not expected to sign free-agent wide receiver Antonio Brown, per ESPN's Dianna Russini. The talented, but troubled receiver has been out of the league since appearing in Week 2 of the 2019 NFL season with the New England Patriots. The 31-year-old has found himself in various legal troubles recently, which […]

Long-Term Deal May Not Be In Cards For Shaquil Barrett

Tampa Bay Buccaneers outside linebacker Shaquil Barrett is holding out hope for a long-term deal before the July 15 deadline, but he isn't holding his breath. "Long-term will probably be pretty hard with the situation of the world right now. I think we're working on a deal, but it probably won't be long (term)," Barrett […]
