Late-Round Lottery Tickets and Breakout Candidates

The 2020 fantasy football draft season is finally upon us. One thing fantasy managers should be routinely doing is mock drafting to learn where the players they are targeting might go in their drafts. You can never mock draft too much. Another reason to mock draft is to learn which players are available at the […]

Does Houston Have a David Johnson Problem?

David Johnson might be one of the most head-scratching backs for the 2020 season. I mean, what happened to him? According to FantasyPros, the back had the first overall average draft position (ADP) in 2017. His ADP has currently plummeted to 44th as the 21st RB off the board for 2020. Ironically, this is one spot […]

Five Deeper Wide Receiver Sleepers for 2020

Something that doesn't get touched on enough in fantasy football analysis is the deep, deep sleepers.

Michael Florio's Updated Draft Rankings vs Industry Consensus

Pierre Camus's 2020 All-Sleeper Team

What's fantasy football draft season without sleepers? Don't worry, I won't waste your time with some convoluted explanation of what constitutes a sleeper. That's because these picks were created with specific guidelines I was given, so it removed some of the brainwork required and left more in the tank for me to elaborate on why […]

Justin Carter's Bold Predictions for 2020 Fantasy Football

It's time for my favorite piece to write every year -- my bold predictions for the upcoming NFL season. Last year's bold predictions went...okay.

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: Whether you load up on running backs early in the draft or employ the zero-RB strategy, a fantasy player’s ability to identify late-round upside running backs (and super-handcuffs) is massively important to winning a fantasy championship: enter Titans' rookie-rusher Darrynton Evans. The now-former Mountaineer ran the […]

Kansas City Chiefs sophomore wide receiver Mecole Hardman is such a player. […]

Updated Running Back Draft Rankings - Standard Scoring (Non-PPR)

The NFL might be a quarterback-driven, pass-first league these days, but you are not going to win a fantasy football league without a decent running back corps.

Andrew Lalama's Bold Predictions for 2020 Fantasy Football

I love bold predictions articles because I hate chalk.

Why Zero RB Won't Work In 2020 (and Beyond!)

In the 1970s, you didn't have to go far to find a funky cool cat cutting up the dance floor in a polyester leisure suit while his pet rock named Morton rested comfortably in his pocket. By the 1980s, people had realized things like the pet rock, and leisure suits were lame. Instead, it was […]

Why Zero RB Will Work In 2020

In a world where Christian McCaffrey is coming off a historic year comprised of 287 carries, 142 targets, 19 touchdowns and over 2,300 yards from scrimmage, the Zero RB strategy might seem like a losing recipe.
