Bird’s the word. Share this poll. Hello Rookie NFL Insight The Matchup This game has been a shootout over the past few seasons. Prior to the Lions 31-0 shutout at the end of last season, this game went over 46 points in six straight games. So we must be expecting bunches of points in this one, right? Not so fast… When the Packers have the ball: We have said it every week this season, but this Detroit may just be the best in football. I know NE has looked good,…

The Kansas City Chiefs opened as a 4.5 point favorite over the Denver Broncos for the NFL Week 7 Thursday night game. In a complete reversal from what we have seen to date this season, the wise guy money has come in heavily on the Broncos and the under (50.5). Bird’s the word. Share this poll. Hello Rookie NFL Insight The Matchup On paper it looks like we may actually get an entertaining Thursday night game here. Fangio has his Broncos improving every week, but this week they find themselves…

Every year there are NFL Rookie Sleepers that we all kick ourselves for not being higher on. Drafting certain rookies makes sense & knowing their ADP is required. However, there is a distinct difference between being a fantasy value head hunter and simply throwing good draft picks after risky rookies. Navigate 2019 NFL Rookie Sleepers Rookie QB’s | Rookie RB’s | Rookie WR’s | Rookie TE’s With that being said, I believe the best and most practical approach to drafting rookies is to do so carefully. In other words, as…

You want deep sleepers… we got deep sleepers. All 12 players on this list of deep sleepers are available after pick 128, and 11 of 12 after pick 148. We feel like these 12 players not only hold the most value in the final rounds of drafts, but also have huge potential upside and could potentially crack your lineup more often than not. Even if you don’t find yourself in a spot where you feel like you need to reach on one of these guys, simply recognizing the upside with…

Introducing our favorite NFL QB Sleepers for the 2019 NFL season. Sleepers can be found anywhere in a draft and that fact tends to be especially true at the quarterback position. QB Sleepers Updated: July 9, 2019 Look at last season’s draft: Rodgers went in the 3rd, Brady in the 4th, Wilson in the 5th, Cam in the 6th, Wentz/Cousins in the 7th… None of these guys lived up to their draft slot, this happens almost every year and I think you have to adjust your draft strategy for this…

The running back position is arguably the most important position in fantasy football. Elite running backs are hard to come by, particularly if you’re playing in a standard format league where you can’t plug in a guy like James White, Tarik Cohen, Nyheim Hines, or Theo Riddick and count on 4-6 points per week in receptions alone. Luckily, we have this fantasy class graded as one of the deepest RB classes in recent history. There are 16 guys we think could be considered RB1’s this season. The top of the…

Trying to find wide receiver sleepers is one of the more challenging things to do in fantasy football, and it gets even worse when you are looking at these guys in May. That being said, we think we have five guys who are clearly sleeper/bargains at their current ADP. Looking for even deeper sleepers? We identify five other guys that are completely off the radar, but are worth keeping an eye on this summer. The receiver position is generally the deepest position in PPR formats. There are solid WR3 options…

The tight end position is generally one of the deeper positions in fantasy football. If you can’t get Travis Kelce in the late 2nd round, or George Kittle in the late 3rd, hold. You’re better off waiting and being one of the last guys in your league to pick a tight end. If you do wait on a tight end, then you are likely going to be looking for value in the 9th-12th round or even later. This sleeper article focuses on players available in rounds 14 and later, meaning…

How you handle player comparison debates will completely shift the way you play daily fantasy sports. When we built out our initial player comparison tool, the idea was simple: every Tuesday we would create our player projections for the week and when users selected two players to compare they would simply get those projections stacked up head-to-head. Fast forward to our current model of helping our visitors understand how to consistently build better lineups. There are two schools of thought behind that with this player comparison article: First, player comparison…
