Losers from the 2021-22 NBA Offseason Trades

The NBA offseason has turned into a matter of days--hours, if you push it--when it comes to player movement. Tampering present or not, the truth is that franchises lose no time in inking their new acquisitions to healthy deals, wheeling and dealing rookies and draft picks left and right, and pulling off trades with other […]

MMA DFS Value Picks - UFC Vegas 35: Barboza vs. Chikadze (Premium Content)

Players with Red Flags to Avoid?

When it comes down to facing a fantasy draft, two numbers are often the most sought after by fantasy GMs: current ADP and overall rank from the prior season. No matter how experienced fantasy players are, those two numbers are thought of as the ultimate all-encompassing representations of every football player's value. Knowing what he […]

Sophomore Slump - Breakout Rookies Who Could Bust in 2021

This past NFL season, we saw a number of breakout rookies like Justin Herbert, Justin Jefferson, Jonathan Taylor, and James Robinson. While some of these players will maintain or exceed their fantasy production from year one, there are some others whose production will become stagnant or even take a step back. Second-year players can have a wide […]

Wide Receivers to Prioritize in PPR Leagues

For fantasy football GMs, draft season is gearing up. Preparing for what is waiting for us in our virtual war rooms is a key part of the process, and the first thing to know is the language our leagues will speak to us in. The first step is to know if you're going to battle your […]

Wide Receivers to Prioritize in Non-PPR Leagues

Fantasy draft season will be upon us before we know it. Aside from evaluating ADP and staying in tune with training camp reports this summer, it's also important to study differences between league types. Some still play standard leagues but these days, PPR (point per reception) formats are the norm. The only difference between those […]

Running Back-Offensive Line Combos to Fade

Sometimes fantasy GMs focus too much on raw, counting stats for running backs. How many yards did they rush for? How many touchdowns did they score? Perhaps, taking it one step further, they end up looking at some "manufactured" numbers such as yards per carry, yards after contact, etc... But there is something more that […]

Late-Round Running Backs To Outperform ADP

Training camps are in progress, and many of you are participating in drafts as Week 1 kickoffs approach. You will develop a strategy before you begin building each roster.

Wide Receiver Draft Targets - Slot Receivers

Plunging into the world of football analytics is without question the best way to find fantasy sleepers for the coming season. Especially in the case of wide receivers, where how they are lining up on the field has a direct correlation with production.

MMA DFS Value Picks - UFC 265: Lewis vs. Gane (Premium Content)

Second UFC numbered event in the past 30 days? Can't complain. It is true that this one won't feature any "real" belt, yes, with just an interim champ about to get named. BUT. We come off a UFC 264 in which neither Poirier nor McGregor were actual contenders nor fought for the gold, so there's […]

Best Wide Receiver Stacks for 2021

Sometimes we're afraid of putting together players from the same team on our rosters, let alone weekly lineups. To a certain extent, that makes sense: the opportunities one gets will take away from the opportunities the other could have gotten. Why limit the fantasy upside of our team with two receivers playing in the same offense […]
