Logan Thomas - Week 13 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
Biggest Surprises of 2017 - Tight Ends
The tight end position is one in fantasy football that can really go one of two ways. You either pay up to get Rob Gronkowski, or you wait it out and roll a guy like Cameron Brate or Jack Doyle out there every week. In recent years, there have been two young stud TEs emerge,... Read More
Biggest Surprises of 2017 - Wide Receivers
The top players at the wide receiver position this year included some names that no one ever would have even came close to guessing.

Biggest Risers and Fallers of 2017 - Wide Receivers
So far we've looked at the biggest risers and fallers at both the quarterback and running back positions. This time we're looking at wide receivers who improved their stock or saw it plummet.

Biggest Surprises of 2017 - Quarterbacks
Quarterbacks tend to be some of the more undervalued commodities in fantasy football. For years owners have been punting the quarterback position in their redraft leagues. Dynasty leagues have owners moving breakout stars around when their value blows up, just to roll with a guy like Philip Rivers week in and week out. It makes... Read More
Biggest Breakouts at Quarterback - 2017 Year in Review
If you have to build a football team, start with the QB first. If you have to build a fantasy football team, you can do one of three things: Pick a surefire guy in the second or third round, confident that the player you picked will be a lock, worry about nothing else. Roll the... Read More
Biggest Tight End Busts - 2017 Year in Review
At the end of every year of fantasy football, you're left with some immediate observations about what you'll do differently in 2018. You'll spend time thinking about which RB is potentially going to be your money-in-the-bank guy in 2018, or which third-round wide receiver will make up for the 2017 mistake of drafting Terrelle Pryor in that spot....

Biggest Risers and Fallers of 2017 - Quarterbacks
The quarterback position saw plenty of volatility in 2017, as 58 different quarterbacks started at least one game. And that's just for the Cleveland Browns...

Biggest Running Back Busts - 2017 Year in Review
I'm a firm believer that I know very little, and that taking my advice is generally the equivalent of asking someone on the street. I'm not referring to fantasy sports so much as everything else: how to cook a fish, how many quarts are in a cup, how to put together a desk, etc. When it... Read More

Heroes and Zeroes - Divisional Round Fantasy Football Picks
I have to admit I'm a bit peeved that LeSean McCoy miraculously healed from his ankle injury in time to ruin my Marcus Murphy sleeper pick.

Biggest Quarterback Busts - 2017 Year in Review
Going into the 2017 season, I implored fantasy strategists in a long article to give up on waiting for quarterback, and instead pick one of the top-five guys in place of a standard third or fourth-round selection.
