Veteran WRs Set to Lose Targets in 2020

Turnover exists in all work places. The NFL is no exception. As far as professional sports go, the NFL has more turnover than the rest. Between free agency, trades, and the draft, player situations undergo significant and sometimes unexpected changes. Each year, a new crop of rookies enters the league and aging or underperforming veterans […]

Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins Jr. revealed on his Twitter account that he has slimmed down to 220 pounds this offseason after being listed at 230 pounds in his rookie season in 2019.

Tompa Bay: What to Expect from the Bucs with Tom Brady

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers made a couple of minor moves this offseason that you may have heard of. First, they went out and replaced their history-making, first-overall pick QB for a 43-year-old now-turned journeyman QB. They also forgot what year it was, trading a fourth-round pick for a player they found out was retired! Not […]

Jerick McKinnon To Work Out With Adrian Peterson

San Francisco 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon (knee) has been steadily increasing his workload on his twice surgically repaired right knee, and he is planning on working out with Redskins veteran running back Adrian Peterson at his gym in Texas. Peterson took McKinnon under his wing when the two played for the Vikings. "I feel […]

Talent Wasted: Rookies in Bad Landing Spots for Redraft

Clyde Edwards-Helaire, CeeDee Lamb, D'Andre Swift, Jerry Jeudy. We will not be talking about these players here. Those players can be contributors no matter the situation due to talent. Instead, we will focus on the rookies who landed in bad situations for fantasy football and may not be able to recover. Of course, things can […]

Alex Smith Seen Working Out in Video

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith (leg) was seen working out in a birthday video posted on Instagram by his wife, Elizabeth. The video showed Smith doing cone drills, running bootlegs, and throwing the ball. Smith is still going through a now 18-month recovery for 17 surgeries that almost cost him to lose his leg and […]

UDFA Pass Catchers To Watch In Dynasty

One place where fantasy value can be found is in the large crop of players who sign as undrafted free agents. Often, very talented players don't hear their names called during the draft, but they'll latch on somewhere and carve out a role. Adam Thielen was an UDFA. So were Robby Anderson, Preston Williams, Tyrell […]

Rookie Running Backs Destined for Committees

Let's talk about everyone's favorite term when it comes to fantasy football: running back committees. I know committees get a bad rep, but the future of the NFL is running back committees. More and more teams have realized the path to NFL success is to use a one-two punch at running back instead of handing […]

Antonio Gibson Will Be Used In Multiple Roles

Washington Redskins running back Antonio Gibson is embracing the comparison to Christian McCaffrey as someone who can stand out as both a running back and receiving threat. New Redskins coach Ron Rivera coached the Panthers star for the past two seasons, so it's easy to see Gibson being used similarly. While it's unfair to expect […]

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. He led the NFL in passing yards (5,109) and the NFC in TD passes (33). But in real life, Winston was not a winner for the third consecutive season and fourth out of […]

Reuben Foster Has Fifth-Year Option Declined

The Washington Redskins declined the fifth-year option on linebacker Reuben Foster, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. Foster was the 31st overall pick in the first round of the 49ers in 2017. He had 72 tackles (59 solo), seven tackles for loss and five QB hits in 10 starts his rookie season, […]

Redskins Not Very Interested In Cam Newton

Washington Redskins head coach Ron Rivera said it would depend on the circumstances on whether the team would even consider signing free-agent quarterback Cam Newton. "I think with Cam, and I have thought about it, I mean, it's something that's run through my mind, and it's about the situation and circumstances. I'm not sure I […]

Redskins Confident In Dwayne Haskins

Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins Jr. was given a vote of confidence by new head coach Ron Rivera in an interview with The Sports Junkies Thursday morning.

Jonathan Allen Has Fifth-Year Option Exercised

The Washington Redskins exercised their fifth-year option on defensive tackle Jonathan Allen. The option keeps him under contract through the 2021 season. Allen was a first-round pick in 2017 (17th overall) and has been solid in his professional career but has certainly not lived up to his draft position. He's recorded 14 sacks in the […]

They Took Who??? Confusing NFL Draft Picks

Every year, the NFL holds a draft, and every year during that draft, 32 NFL teams make decisions that will positively impact the team going forward. But every year, some teams also make decisions that are...confusing. Confounding. Puzzling. Whatever adjective you want to use, teams make decisions that leave us, the outsiders watching the draft, […]
