Is Todd Gurley Done in Dynasty?
Done is a strong word. When we say a player is "done," we're usually making a judgment of a player's game right now, as in "yeah, Tom Brady is done," which means "2020 Tom Brady is going to stink." But with dynasty leagues, the word "done" carries some different meanings. "Todd Gurley is done," for […]

UDFA Quarterbacks to Watch in Dynasty
Quarterback is the most important offensive position on a football field. Your quarterback's strengths and weaknesses are the starting point for your entire offensive's strengths and weaknesses. For this reason, it's a position that teams invest heavily in during the NFL Draft, with quarterback-needy teams often spending first round picks on players who might not […]
Jameis Winston's New Dynasty Outlook
Jameis Winston certainly boosted many fantasy teams in all formats to championships last season as he finished fifth at QB in scoring.

NFL Concludes Tom Brady Committed No Violations
Amidst a report last week of teams complaining to the league office about Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady violating offseason work policies and social distancing guidelines by going to offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich's house (and another one too) to pick up documents, the league has concluded there were no violations. Because of the pandemic, […]

Buccaneers Add Another Running Back In Raymond Calais
With the 245th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers grabbed another running back. This time, it was Louisiana’s Raymond Calais, a fast but undersized back who’ll look to make big plays in the passing game. The problem? He wasn’t used much as a receiver in college, so he’ll need to improve […]
Buccaneers Defense Gets Stronger With Khalil Davis
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have selected Nebraska defensive tackle Khalil Davis with the No. 194 pick during the sixth round. He has high-end explosiveness but struggles to stop the run. He doesn't have too many pass-rushing moves to lean on right now and is basically a developmental player. Davis finished with 44 tackles, 11 tackles […]
Buccaneers Continue To Add Offensive Weapons
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers revamped offense will be getting another new member after the team used the 161st overall pick on Minnesota wide receiver Tyler Johnson.
