We continue onwards with our rankings and projections for the 2019 season. If you haven't done so already, be sure to check out not only my QB rankings but also both parts of my RB projections (1 & 2). Wide receivers are typically the easiest position to project each season. Once we figure out a […]

Trent Williams Has No Plans To Report

Washington Redskins left tackle Trent Williams told former teammate DeAngelo Hall that he plans to continue his holdout into Week 1. Despite the Redskins belief that Williams will play for them in 2019, the disgruntled tackle looks to be content missing regular season action, at least to begin the year. An already questionable offensive line […]

Don't Stop Believing in Jordan Reed

Trying to find value is important in any fantasy draft, but there are some positions where it is more important than others. Tight end is one of those positions where finding a sleeper can be the biggest differentiator. At a position which has so much middle-of-the-road performance, plucking a top option out of nowhere can […]

Around the NFL Pop Quiz: AFC West

The average NFL career is 3.3 years. This isn't every guy on the training camp type misleading analysis, this is for the guys who make the opening day roster, though as Terry Crews reminded the cast of "Ask Me Another" on a recent episode, sometimes it takes a guy (like Crews) seven real years to […]

Why Zero-RB Still Won't Work in 2019

Zero-RB is a popular strategy that is touted online by several fantasy analysts. The gist of it is basically avoiding the running back position completely throughout the first few rounds of the draft, or taking a first-round workhorse, and then targeting wide receivers and maybe a premium tight end early on. The strategy, if properly […]

Redskins Looking To Trade Josh Doctson

The Washington Redskins would like to trade wide receiver Josh Doctson before Week 1. Doctson is in the final year of his contract and has been mostly injured and extremely inconsistent since being taken in the first round in 2016. It makes sense why head coach Jay Gruden was non-committal when asked if Doctson would […]

Josh Doctson Not A Lock To Make Final Roster

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden was non-committal on whether wide receiver Josh Doctson would make the final roster. Doctson will not play in the preseason finale on Thursday either. The team has been high on receivers Paul Richardson, Trey Quinn and rookies Terry McLaurin and Kelvin Harmon. Cam Sims and Robert Davis missed most […]

Jordan Reed Expected To Be Ready For Week 1

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden expects tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) to be available for the regular season opener against the Eagles. Reed entered the concussion protocol after being hit in last Thursday's preseason game against the Falcons. "We're quite confident that Jordan will be fine," Gruden said. It's good news for Reed owners […]

Five Wide Receiver Bounce Back Candidates

We're entering the peak of fantasy football draft season. Everybody is burning the midnight oil looking for the most accurate cheat sheets, trying to find the sleeper with the biggest upside, and doing mock drafts while eating dinner with his family over the weekend. It is that time of the year when hitting on the […]

Running Back Standard Rankings for Fantasy Football Drafts

Running backs don’t matter. This may or may not be true in the real NFL but in fantasy, it surely isn’t the case. If it were the case, why are the top four consensus players all at the position? It is always great to have one of the top guys at the position. But if […]

Bryce Love To Open Season On PUP

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said that rookie running back Bryce Love (knee) will open the year on the Physically Unable to Perform list. It's shaping up to be a "redshirt year" for Love, whose senior season at Stanford ended with a torn ACL. There's upside in Love down the road in future seasons, […]

Trent Williams Unlikely To Be Traded

Washington Redskins left tackle Trent Williams (head) is unlikely to be traded, according to head coach Jay Gruden. Williams has had several surgeries to remove a non-cancerous tumor on his head, but he is healthy and available to play. Williams is embattled with the team's medical staff and appears unwilling to play for the team. […]

Alexander Mattison (RB, MIN) - 2019 Fantasy Football Sleeper

A grand total of 33 running backs have been drafted inside the first three rounds of the NFL draft from 2015 to 2018. We've come to know the likes of David Johnson, Ezekiel Elliott, Alvin Kamara, and Saquon Barkley among many other great rushers. As you see, there have been a lot of hits between […]

Must Own Running Backs With Mid-Round ADPs

So, you grabbed a couple of good running backs early on, but you don't have a ton of depth there? If you wait too long, you're going to have to do your research to know who you should be drafting. Thankfully for you, I'm here to do that research. Guys like Marlon Mack were league-winners […]

Navigating Late-Round Tight Ends

When should I draft a tight end? This is one of the questions in fantasy football that gets the biggest split of answers. There is the clear cut tier of Travis Kelce (who you could argue is in a tier of his own), Zach Ertz and George Kittle, but their ADPs are high. With all […]

Tight End PPR Rankings for Fantasy Football Drafts

Tight ends are tricky in fantasy football. Due to the top-heavy nature of the position, it is typically best to either land one of the top few or to wait until the end of the draft to find one. An elite TE like Rob Gronkowski in years past can elevate your roster with his performances […]

Case Keenum Named Week 1 Starter

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden named quarterback Case Keenum the starting quarterback heading into the Week 1 matchup against the Eagles. This was expected to be the case with rookie Dwayne Haskins not quite ready to start in the NFL. Keenum is league average, at best, and will be operating behind a sketchy offensive […]

Spencer Aguiar's 2019 PPR RB Projections and Rankings (Part One)

After a two-year span that saw running backs suffer diminishing value between 2016 and 2017, it appears as if the position is back on top. According to the ADP on Fantasypros.com, 15 of the top 30 players are ball carriers and being able to tier them off into the correct section will be vital for […]

Terry McLaurin (WR, WAS) - 2019 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target With Final Pick In Draft Current ADP: ~310 I am a professional sports bettor, which sometimes gets a negative connotation from those who don't understand what I do. The general public would consider my job as a luck-based activity that presents potential dangers and pitfalls, but I would describe my profession in […]

Stop That Hype Train! Ronald Jones

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers enter 2019 with high offensive expectations under new Head Coach Bruce Arians. In 2018, the Bucs were third in total offense with 6,738 yards. They led the league in passing with a total of 5,125 yards, which accounted for 76 percent of their total offense. Rushing the ball, however, was a […]

Deeper Dynasty Sleepers to Stash (Premium Content)

Sleepers come in all shapes and sizes in fantasy football. It could be the undrafted free agent that teams passed over on draft day. It could be a third-string RB that suddenly ascends to relevance. It could be a veteran receiver that finally finds a chance to shine. Or it could be that player from […]

Dwayne Haskins Plays Well Against Falcons

Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins completed seven of 13 passes for 74 yards in Thursday's exhibition against the Falcons. Despite how well Haskins has played this preseason, he's still likely to start the year out as Washington's backup behind Case Keenum. The positive outlook is that Haskins has performed well enough to legitimately give head […]

Samaje Perine Scores Washington's Only Touchdown Thursday

Washington Redskins running back Samaje Perine carried the ball four times for 16 yards in Thursday's preseason game, with his highlight coming in the form of a three-yard touchdown trot. Perine's teammate and ostensible lone competition for the fourth RB spot, Byron Marshall, racked up only 11 yards on as many carries. Neither Perine nor […]

Adrian Peterson Doesn't Play Thursday

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson did not play on Thursday night against the Falcons, ceding the backfield work to Derrius Guice and Chris Thompson instead. Both had positive showings in his absence, especially Guice, who had not played a live game since tearing his ACL in August 2018. There's not much to see here […]

Trey Quinn Misses Thursday Night's Game

Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn didn't play against the Falcons on Thursday. Per a Redskins.com report, Quinn rested so as not to aggravate a thumb injury he sustained earlier in the preseason. Like teammate Paul Richardson, Quinn has not appeared in either of Washington's last two preseason games. Unlike Richardson, Quinn has PPR intrigue […]
