Buccaneers Still Undecided On Jameis Winston
Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that the team remains undecided on whether to keep quarterback Jameis Winston or move on from the former first overall draft pick.

Many of you have already launched into the planning process for your 2020 rosters. This includes best-ball owners who have embraced the opportunity to draft in that popular format.

Jameis Winston Has Eye Surgery
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston (eye) recently underwent LASIK eye surgery to correct his nearsightedness. He has struggled with nearsightedness throughout his career. "He can't read the scoreboard, but he can see the guys in front of him, so he's fine," head coach Bruce Arians said at the end of the season. Winston led […]
Biggest Surprises of 2019 - Wide Receiver
The wide receiver position was probably the most exciting position of the 2019 fantasy football seasons, with so many different breakouts and busts. We saw stud wide receivers like Odell Beckham and JuJu Smith-Schuster become extremely hard to trust and frustrating to own. We also saw a handful of rookie wide receivers out-perform their pre-season […]
WR Target Share and Impact (NFC South & West): 2019 Review
Not every team splits up the targets in the passing game in the same way, and that has a great impact on the fantasy points any given player can get every week. Knowing who is getting used the most and who is getting the most of his opportunities in each offense is the key to […]

Tight End VOS (Values Over Starter): 2019 Season In Context
The 2019 fantasy football season is over. That is not something we like to say considering the empty path we have ahead of us until we reach draft season again in eight months. The good thing about it, though, is that we have plenty of time to analyze what happened during the past few weeks […]

Can a New Coach Fix Baker Mayfield in 2020?
Another season has passed and another disappointment by Browns fans has been realized. Baker Mayfield got the head coach he wanted in Freddie Kitchens in 2019. In 2020, hopefully he's got the one he needs in Kevin Stefanski. Last season, under Kitchens, Mayfield had a coach he could control and manipulate. He did just that […]
Wide Receiver VOS (Values Over Starter): 2019 Season In Context
The one (and only) good thing about fantasy football season ending is that we have plenty of time to analyze what happened during the past few months and put performances into context to prepare for next season. As football is an ever-evolving game, though, it makes sense to assess how good players were in fantasy […]
Introducing Value Over Starter Football Metrics
When it comes to fantasy sports, we're always looking for the highest possible Return On Investment or ROI. This concept is easy to understand: in both Daily Fantasy and re-draft/fantasy leagues, ROI would come down to how many points a player returns relative to his salary, or the price you paid (given his ADP on […]
Biggest Breakouts of 2019: Quarterback
2019 was a very interesting season of fantasy football, to say the least. It's safe to say no one was banking on the season that we saw from Lamar Jackson but he wasn't the only one to stand out. At the quarterback position, we saw some really exciting players start to shine and some older […]

Bucs A Potential Landing Spot For Philip Rivers
There has been buzz that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a possible landing spot for Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers, who will become a free agent in March. After his worst season since 2007, the aging gunslinger is unlikely to re-sign with the Bolts, and he recently moved his family from San Diego to […]
Biggest Busts of 2019: Tight End
2019 was not the record-breaking season for tight ends 2018 was. San Francisco’s George Kittle (most receiving yards for a TE in a season) and Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz (most receptions for a TE in a season) did not break the records they set last season, although both were fine for fantasy players. Kansas City’s Travis […]
Tight End ADP Winners and Losers: 2019 Season Review
I've always believed that it is easier to lose a fantasy championship than to win it on draft day. It makes sense, as sure-fire players are expected to reward their owners with a lower risk-factor than the other way around and thus they're always drafter earlier. If they put up a season-long dud, though, you'll […]
Biggest Surprises of 2019: Tight End
The 2019 NFL season was anything but predictable. I mean, the Tennessee Titans made the AFC title game! Andrew Luck retired right before the season! [Insert one of many, many other things here, because all lists need three items but I couldn't decide between all the possible third options.] One position where things at the […]

I'll look at both 2018 and 2019 statistical outcomes from every player, contrast their performances, calculate differences in each category and come up with the most prominent names going forward. This past season, receivers didn't dominate in fantasy, […]

Biggest Busts of 2019: Quarterback
The 2019 NFL season is over, and it's time to look back on what happened. 2019 was a year where some quarterbacks -- Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen -- leaped up to the top of the fantasy charts, while other guys faded from where they were expected to perform. Today, I want to talk about three […]
Biggest Breakouts of 2019: Running Back
The 2019 fantasy football was filled with plenty of surprises across the board. Between guys like Devante Parker breaking out and David Johnson being a total dud, there was plenty of action that kept the fantasy season interesting. At the running back position, there were some very interesting young names that took off and broke […]
Tight End Risers and Fallers - 2019 Season Review
With the 2019 fantasy season over, it's time to start studying what happened this past year and what is ahead of us in order to plan accordingly for the 2020 drafts.

Biggest Busts of 2019: Wide Receivers
After a very interesting season of fantasy football action, many owners were left with a bitter taste in their mouth from a few of the “elite” NFL wide receivers. While Michael Thomas dominated and Julio Jones was his usual reliable self, not all was good if you played it safe by taking a receiver early. […]
Quarterback Risers and Fallers: 2019 Season Review
This article will examine the biggest risers and fallers at the quarterback position, which proved to be the most impactful in fantasy leagues as is often the case.
