Adrian Peterson Aiming For 2,000 Yards
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson said he is aiming for 2,000 yards in 2019. It will be a tall task for the veteran running back heading into his 13th season, even after he ran for 1,042 yards in 2018. Peterson will be 34 years old this season and became the fifth player to rush […]
Cam Sims Standing Out
Washington Redskins wide receiver Cam Sims has been standing out in practices this week and has developed a solid rapport with quarterbacks Case Keenum and rookie Dwayne Haskins. Sims showed big-play ability in 11-on-11 drills and scored a 60-yard touchdown on a pass from Keenum on Tuesday. Sims has yet to be active in an […]
Paul Richardson Limited In Practice
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson (shoulder) was in full uniform at practice on Tuesday but was limited as he continues to recover from a shoulder injury that landed him on Injured Reserve in November. He went through individual workouts but stood off to the side for 7-on-7 and team drills. The 27-year-old should be […]
Case Keenum Sharper Than Dwayne Haskins In Practice
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum was sharper than rookie Dwayne Haskins in minicamp practice on Tuesday. Haskins also had moments of success, but he was somewhat inconsistent throwing the ball in the face of constant pressure. He also made a questionable decision in a two-minute drill when he took off running with a few seconds […]
Let It Go! Players We Need to Finally Drop in Dynasty
If there's one thing I'm guilty of in fantasy football, it's holding onto players in dynasty leagues way, way beyond the point where I should have just dropped them. Sometimes, I'm rewarded by being able to start Wendell Smallwood during a time where the rest of my team is injured, but usually the result is […]
Alex Smith Recovering Nicely
Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said that quarterback Alex Smith (leg) is "recovering nicely" and thinks Smith will be back sooner than people expect. Gruden also said that Smith "can play catch." Smith suffered a gruesome broken leg in 2018 that might keep him off the field in a regular season game for the […]
Trent Williams Wants A New Deal
Washington Redskins left tackle Trent Williams is skipping mandatory minicamp this week because he wants a new deal, according to a source. He will make around $12 million per year over the final two years of his contract, but Williams is looking for more as one of the best overall left tackles in the game. […]
Dynasty Price Check - Mike Gesicki
Last year, the Miami Dolphins spent a second-round pick on Penn State tight end Mike Gesicki. Tight end had long been a rough position for the Dolphins, as the team hasn't had a player at the position hit the 500-yard mark since Charles Clay in 2014, but the move to pick Gesicki seemed like a […]
Damien Williams Is a Must-Draft... and Must-Sell
“You know what? Damien Williams is our starter,” said Chiefs RB coach Eric Bieniemy shortly before fantasy football Twitter burned down. My initial reaction to this: "No kidding, what are your other options?" Regardless, Damien Williams, it's now your turn. I don't just mean it's his chance to earn a starting gig on an NFL […]
2019 Dynasty Price Check - Tre'Quan Smith
When it comes to dynasty football leagues you know there is no offseason. Without the in-season worries of lineup setting and setting up waiver wire claims, dynasty league enthusiasts can focus their efforts on making trades to improve their teams and preparing for rookie drafts. Today's column will take a look at New Orleans wide receiver […]
Josh Norman Unlikely To Be Released
The Washington Redskins are unlikely to release cornerback Josh Norman as a post-June 1 cut. The 31-year-old is scheduled to count $14.5 million against the salary cap in 2019, with none of it guaranteed. The team would save $11.5 million against the salary cap and eat $3 million in dead money this season and next […]

Chris Thompson Is Healthy
Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (ankle, ribs) said he is feeling healthy this offseason, but he's still dealing with some soreness in his ankle. The 28-year-old has been a third-down weapon for Washington in his six years with the team, and he's caught at least 35 passes in each of the last four seasons. […]

Rookie Spotlight - Kelvin Harmon
Prior to the 2019 NFL Draft, wide receiver Kelvin Harmon out of NC State was getting a lot of hype from the dynasty football community. Since falling a fair amount in the draft, the hype has died down some. Harmon even ended up getting drafted after another wide receiver that I like in this year's […]
Tight End Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis (May 2019)
It used to be that we ignored the tight end position until the middle rounds of a draft. Now, it's not uncommon to see a name like Kelce in the first round and not bat an eyelash, while Ertz and Kittle are guaranteed to be taken within the top 30 picks. In best-ball leagues, you […]

Dwayne Haskins Looking Good At OTAs
Washington Redskins rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins is displaying the traits that made him the 15th overall pick in the draft in organized team activities. Head coach Jay Gruden is using this time to see if Haskins will be a serious competitor to Case Keenum for the Week 1 job. Colt McCoy will also enter the […]
Start of a Dynasty - Expert Mock Draft Review
I’ll be honest, playing re-draft leagues for years can give an avid fantasy footballer tunnel-vision. You tend to look for the immediate impact of a player. In Dynasty leagues, you have to have a different mindset (except for Frank Gore who’ll play for another 10 years with at least 200 touches each time). Just after […]
Quarterback Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis (May 2019)
Quarterback has to be approached differently in best-ball as opposed to re-draft leagues. Whereas in most competitive leagues, you can get away with drafting one quarterback and streaming throughout the year if necessary, you don't have that luxury in a draft-only format. Bye weeks, injuries, and flat-out bad play must be accounted for during the […]

Derrius Guice Expected To Be Ready For Training Camp
Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice (knee) is expected to be full-go at training camp this summer after missing all of his rookie season after suffering a season-ending knee injury in the preseason. Head coach Jay Gruden said Guice is making good progress. “Derrius is coming along very well. We’re just trying to make sure […]
Case Keenum Sees First-Team Reps
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum saw the first snaps with the first team in practice on Monday over rookie Dwayne Haskins. The rookie will start behind the veteran, but we all expect Haskins to move ahead of Keenum by Week 1 of the regular season. Keenum may have the experience, but Haskins is much more […]
