Hollywood Brown: Where Have You Gone?
We knew 2020 would be a bad year for Hollywood. We did not think it would be Hollywood Brown.

How to Value Clyde Edwards-Helaire with Le'Veon Bell in KC

Should We Worry About Amari Cooper and the Dallas Receivers?
With Amari Cooper and Ezekiel Elliott leading the way, the Dallas Cowboys' offense is stacked at the skill positions; however, the offensive line is a mess.

Digging for Value in the New York Jets Backfield
It was a long time coming and finally it happened. The Jets wanted away from Le’Veon Bell and the feeling was certainly mutual.

Why Noah Fant Will Be This Year's Breakout Tight End
Every year in fantasy football, the tight end position is, for lack of a better word, mediocre. There are a few stars at the top and then a group of indistinguishable players in the middle. Sometimes though, there is one who waded through the muck and rises to the top of the heap. Last season,... Read More

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~48 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~64 ANALYSIS: After returning from suspension last season, Kareem Hunt took a bite out of the production of Nick Chubb.

Anthony Miller (WR, CHI) - Wide Receiver Draft Values
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~120 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~143 ANALYSIS: Despite missing a game in 2019, Anthony Miller was still on the field for 64.2% of the Bears offensive snaps and finished with the second-most targets among wide receivers in Chicago's offense.

Allen Lazard - 2020 Fantasy Football Sleeper
Coming into the 2019 season, the debate in Green Bay was whether Geronimo Allison or Marquez Valdes-Scantling would be the WR2 for Aaron Rodgers.

Meet the Mount Rushmore of 2020 Fantasy Football

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~140 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~160 ANALYSIS: Washington drafted Antonio Gibson in the third round of the 2020 NFL draft and declared him a pro-running back going forward.
