Players With Misleading Numbers Worth Reconsidering in 2021

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.

Zero-RB is an Excellent Draft Strategy in 2021

First things first, and this is where most people throw out the Zero-RB strategy immediately – it is not made for every fantasy football league. It is a draft strategy that is to be used in specific draft settings. Part of the reason Zero-RB gets such a bad rap is it is believed to be […]

Running Back Targets for Zero RB Drafters in 2021

The Zero RB draft strategy has been one of the most discussed topics in the fantasy football community over the last few years.

Best Wide Receiver Stacks for 2021

Sometimes we're afraid of putting together players from the same team on our rosters, let alone weekly lineups. To a certain extent, that makes sense: the opportunities one gets will take away from the opportunities the other could have gotten. Why limit the fantasy upside of our team with two receivers playing in the same offense […]

Taylor Lewan Indicates He'll Be Ready For Week 1

Tennessee Titans offensive lineman Taylor Lewan has not practiced in full yet as he continues to recover from his torn ACL injury he suffered last season. However, according to head coach Mike Vrabel he's gone through some jog-throughs and is progressing nicely. All the optimistic talk makes sense as he was not placed on the […]

Julio Jones Still Not Practicing For Titans

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Julio Jones suffered an undetermined injury on Monday, but the team does not believe it's serious at this time.

Dynasty Rankings Analysis - Tight End

There are plenty of talented tight ends in the NFL these days, and many of them are 27 or younger and perfect to have on a dynasty fantasy football roster for the next several seasons.

Julio Jones Leaves Practice Early

Newly acquired Tennessee Titans wide receiver Julio Jones left practice early today, walking to the sideline slowly under his own power. However, head coach Mike Vrabel said to the media that Jones will be fine. This could be a situation worth monitoring as Jones enters his age 32 season. He missed time last season with […]

Titans Claim Sam Ficken, Waive Blake Haubeil

The kicker competition in Tennessee has taken a turn, as the Titans have claimed former Jets kicker Sam Ficken off waivers and have waived Blake Haubeil.

Fool Me Once... Second-Year Running Backs Who'll Bust Again

Out of pretty much every NFL position, running back is the one where immediate success should be the most expected. It's a position with the shortest shelf life, so players need to prove themselves quickly. So when a player's rookie year doesn't go well, that's a bad sign. And while some players will have a […]

Josh Friedman’s Bold Predictions – 2021 Fantasy Football

Bold is in the eye of the beholder. When it comes to “bold” predictions, some fantasy pundits go for shock value. Others play it safer, opting for calls with close to a 50% chance of coming true. Perhaps the industry needs to create a blue-ribbon panel to decree what qualifies as a bold prediction -- […]

Blake Haubeil, Tucker McCann Battle For Titans Kicker Job

The Tennessee Titans have a kicker battle in training camp, with Blake Haubeil and Tucker McCann competing for the job.

Turron Davenport of […]

Touchdown Regression Candidates - Quarterback

Throwing a lot of touchdowns? Good! Throwing a lot of touchdowns at a rate that surpasses either your average level or the league average level?

Jeremy McNichols Opens Camp On PUP List

Tennessee Titans running back Jeremy McNichols will open camp on the NFL's Physically Unable to Perform list for undisclosed reasons.

2021 Standard Rankings Analysis: Wide Receiver

The NFL has become a pass-first league, and fantasy football general managers have adapted their strategies to coincide with this.

That feels like when parachute pants were cool to wear, though, because receivers have become […]

Target Hogs to Trust in 2021 Fantasy Football

We're talking about fantasy football here, and in fantasy, football volume is the key to rostering and fielding a winning team. While everything boils down to that concept, seeking volume calls for looking deeper than just the name and reputation of players. Put a wide receiver or tight end in a stacked offense (one featuring […]

Quarterback Sleepers and Draft Targets

Each year it seems like a new quarterback has a career season, and it's usually because they throw touchdowns at an alarming rate that year.
