Brian Hill Lands On Injured Reserve

Tennessee Titans running back Brian Hill (undisclosed) landed on the injured reserve on Sunday. It's unknown why he currently occupies space on the IR.

David Montgomery Is Still Being Slept On

It’s 2021 and running backs could very well be the most difficult position in fantasy football to solve on your roster. 10 years ago, you could just draft two running backs in the first two rounds no matter who it was, and barring injuries, you were in the clear. Now, with the rise in production […]

Jalen Reagor – 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper

Jalen Reagor did not show fantasy football general managers much in 2020, but the same will not hold true in 2021. The Philadelphia Eagles’ former first-round pick was supposed to kickstart their pass-catching corps and give fantasy footballers a speedy slot receiver who could be useful in standard and dynasty leagues. Instead, Reagor gave fantasy […]

My Guys: Using ADP to Find Draft Values

Fantasy football leagues are not won in the draft alone, but having a strong draft makes winning the league that much easier. Part of having a great draft is finding players that simply have an ADP lower than they should. But, if you read my strategy article, you know I prioritize upside and not just […]

Quarterback Draft Rankings and Analysis

Starting several years ago, the late-round QB strategy quickly caught on, becoming a staple of most fantasy managers’ drafts. In 2021, though late-round QB is still viable, fantasy managers may want to start looking in a different direction. With a plethora of young, mobile quarterbacks joining the reliable veterans, quarterback projects to be exceptionally top-heavy […]

Whether you're an analyst or a casual fan, nearly everyone in fantasy football has what we call a "home league."

ADP Showdown - George Kittle vs. Darren Waller

George Kittle and Darren Waller finished as the TE3 and TE2 in terms of fantasy points per game respectively last season.

ADP Showdown - Kyle Pitts vs Noah Fant

Shh. Listen. The wind laps against the rusted-out husk of a windmill. In the distance, you think you hear footsteps, but it can't be. You're alone here. There is no one left. This is the barren, post-apocalyptic wasteland that is Tight End World, where barely anyone has survived. Travis Kelce hides in a bunker. George […]

Geoff Swaim Placed On COVID-19 List

The Tennessee Titans placed tight end Geoff Swaim on the COVID-19 list on Thursday, in addition to quarterback Ryan Tannehill and linebacker Justin March-Lillard. It's unclear if Swaim actually tested positive for the virus or if he was just a close contact, but either way, he'll need to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols before returning […]

ADP Showdown - Ryan Tannehill vs. Joe Burrow

Joe Burrow is a young, ascending star in this league. The second-year product out of LSU is an intelligent football player (coach's son), displays solid arm strength and could very well be a future MVP in this league.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill was placed on the reserve/COVID list on Thursday. He is expected to be out for the next 5-to-10 days.

Draft Strategy: Building a Winner Around Travis Kelce

Drafting a tight end anywhere in the first round may just not feel right to you. If you don’t play in a tight end premium format like the Fantasy Football Players Championship (FFPC), it is going to be very hard to pass on a top-flight running back or a superstar wide receiver in round one. […]

Brian Hill Far Outshined In Blowout

Tennessee Titans running back Brian Hill had 10 carries for 16 yards versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. With running back Derrick Henry coming off of his second consecutive 2,000 yard rushing season, his handcuff could be a valuable piece if the volume finally wears Henry down.

Players with Red Flags to Avoid?

When it comes down to facing a fantasy draft, two numbers are often the most sought after by fantasy GMs: current ADP and overall rank from the prior season.
