NFL Rookie Hype List: Hit or Miss?

With 32 teams in the midst of regular-season preparation via training camp practices, we often see the hype for rookies spin out of control. It seems like every year without fail, NFL Twitter gets a hold of a couple clips of a corner making a nice interception, or a running back juking a linebacker and leaving them in the dust, and proclaims them as the next great thing. I’m here to look at seven players that were drafted in April that have seen a ton of chatter, and to give my predictions on if they will prove worthy from day one.

Fantasy Football Round Table: Hall of Fame Game Edition

The 2019 NFL season is right around the corner! The Hall of Fame Game between the Atlanta Falcons and Denver Broncos is tonight, meaning we have just five weeks till opening night.

NFL Teams Poised for Long-Term Success

This exercise is meant to look at five teams across the NFL that should have long Super Bowl windows. This article will ignore teams that have found the fountain of youth (looking at you, New England) and teams that are unproven but have potential (i.e., the Ravens if Lamar Jackson makes a big leap).

Week 7 Streaming Options: QB, TE, D/ST, K, and Deep “Boom” Plays

Has anyone noticed that my “boom” plays go boom a week or two after I feature them? So unfortunate in the timing. Albert Wilson, c’mon man! Went off this past week. And don’t even get me started on Mason Crosby. Recommended him last week, and he saw plenty of opportunities and missed everything. If he hit all 6 of his kicks including his extra point attempt he would’ve had 21 points. 21. From a kicker. Then he goes and scores 17 against the Niners the next week.

Week 1 Streaming Options: QB, TE, D/ST Plus Deep “Boom” Flex Plays

Here you can find my weekly streaming options at quarterback, tight end, and defense every week of the season plus my sleeper “boom” options at running back and wide receiver. Each week I will base my picks on the format of a 12 team league with PPR scoring so be aware of this when taking my suggestions into consideration. I will only offer up players who are outside the Top 12 in the consensus weekly rankings from FantasyPros.

Early Round QBs are the Death Sticks in Fantasy Football.

Remember in “Star Wars: Attack of the Clones,” when Obi-Wan walks into the bar and the drug dealer asks him if he wants some death sticks? Obi-wan tells him to go home and rethink his life. Drafting quarterback before round ten is like death sticks, you need to go home and rethink your life.

Chicago Bears: 2018 Season Preview

As opening day gets ever closer, we want to continue to look at what can be expected by teams for the upcoming season. The NFC North has plenty of potential to be a tough division, but there are many question marks, namely with the health and development of young players and players returning from injury. The Chicago Bears are hoping everything clicks for them in 2018, so they can, at least, put up a good fight.
