Ronald Jones Signs with Kansas City Chiefs - Fantasy Impact
It would appear at first glance that Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire's time as the RB1 in town is over. The team signed former Buccaneers RB Ronald Jones II to a one-year contract worth up to $5 million on Saturday, which should mean that Jones will have a notable presence in that backfield. There are now... Read More
FFPC Dynasty Cutdown Day: Wheeling, Dealing and Improving
We love to play in dynasty leagues like the ones featured on the Fantasy Football Players Championship (FFPC) platform because at its very best, the experience replicates running a pro football franchise.

Quarterback Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis
On the field, quarterbacks are the most crucial position of all. In fantasy football, not so much. This may be especially true in best-ball leagues where the highest win rates don't usually associate with the best passers. This seems counterintuitive since there is no possibility to stream QB or pick up an injury replacement off... Read More

Robert Woods Traded to Titans: Fantasy Football Impact Analysis
When the Rams brought in Allen Robinson, my first response was "that's a bunch of receivers." Evidently, the Rams thought the same thing, as they shipped one of their wideouts, Robert Woods, off to Tennessee. Woods, who tore his ACL in November, will team up with A.J. Brown in what should be a solid receiving corps... Read More
Tyreek Hill Traded to Miami Dolphins: Fantasy Football Reaction
It's safe to say that the 2022 NFL offseason has been the most unpredictable in recent memory, if not ever, in terms of big-name players being traded and free-agent signings. In an effort to top itself, it got a lot crazier when star wide receiver Tyreek Hill was shipped to the Miami Dolphins, seemingly out... Read More
Allen Robinson Signs With Los Angeles Rams: Fantasy Football Impact
Allen Robinson’s 2021 NFL campaign was the disaster of all disasters, especially for the fantasy football managers who rostered him. Robinson had the worst season of his above-average NFL career.

Matt Ryan Traded to Indianapolis Colts: Fantasy Football Reaction

Marcus Mariota Signs with Atlanta Falcons - Fantasy Impact
The NFL carousel of quarterback moves continued to spin on Monday afternoon, as former Tennessee Titans and Las Vegas Raiders QB Marcus Mariota signed a two-year, $18.75 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons.

Running Back Stat Sleepers - Elusiveness Rating
A lot of elements go into making a running back desirable for fantasy football. Opportunity, a good offensive line, and a good offense are all key elements. However, something equally important is how elusive those running backs are, this includes breaking tackles and gaining yards after contact. Often players who have these traits fall into... Read More
