    How can an NFL team have WR be their No 1/2/3 priority when you just watched the Chiefs win B2B Super Bowls without them?

    With some exceptions (Mahomes, running QBs like Lamar and Allen) it is becoming clear that you need two legit receiving options to be a top tier offense in the NFL. Playmakers that can produce when the opponent sells out to stop your 1. Mahomes skews SB data but if we look at conference...

    WR Jerry Jeudy, CLE

    If there's one thing you can count in fantasy its people overcorrecting when they feel burned by a player. Jeudy was a mega-hyped prospect that probably would have been the 1st WR selected in his draft class if the Raiders didn't do the Raider thing and overdraft speed. He's under performed due...

    WR Jerry Jeudy, CLE

    I dont want Jeudy on any of my teams but hes worth more than a 3rd. You can find better value than that.

    TE David Njoku, CLE

    I would argue it is day and night. The passing offense in Cleveland was terrible with Watson with maybe the exception of the 2nd half of the Ravens game. Even that comeback needed a 4th quarter pick six. Watson was carried by his defense. Three of the games Watson won, the opposing team scored...

    WR Jameson Williams, DET

    Encouraging progress but it still feels like an uphill battle for him to be fantasy relevant. Even if he develops as a player, he's competing with a volume heavy WR1, a rookie TE having one of the best receiving years ever and a electric receiving RB that looks better each week. The competition...

    Brandon Staley

    This team needs to clean house. GM needs to go as well. Bring in an offensive guy like Ben Johnson or Bobby Slowik. Recognize this is a rebuild and gut the whole team outside of Herbert. Staley is a bad coach but this team needed to do this a year ago. This was an aging roster with no depth but...

    TE Dalton Kincaid, BUF

    Kincaid looks like the 2nd best option in this offense that has been begging for a consistent 2nd threat behind Diggs for years now. I think his usage doesn't change much with Knox back.

    Has the draft elite QB strategy already jumped the shark?

    The problem with waiting on a QB is that you could have drafted Aaron Rodgers, Daniel Jones, Kirk Cousins or Deshaun Watson. No one was going into their draft expecting to start Stroud as their QB1. Even if you waited until the 2nd tier of QBs, Dak and Burrow probably lost you weeks so far this...

    Mike Tomlin...is it time to go?

    I think the "national media" would be justified in picking this up as a "race thing". Everyone would know that Tomlin wasn't fired because he is black. The conversation would be about how there were only 3 black head coaches and one got fired. Especially if that coach got fired in his first EVER...

    RB Breece Hall, NYJ

    NYJ does not have the coaching that ATL has to be as effective as ATL. Arthur Smith gets a bad rep in fantasy circles but he knows how to run the ball. I don't trust Hackett at all.

    RB David Montgomery, DET

    He's the kind of player that I am going to try to sell all season and not get any buyers while he quietly puts up rb2 numbers the whole year. The most important thing to me is that KC sold out to stop the run and Detroit still won. I don't see why the Detriot coaches will look at a game where...

    How does the RB ‘pay scale’ problem get solved?

    For all the talk about players "honoring the contract" Saquon and Josh Jacobs are explicitly not playing under a contract they signed. They are restricted from negotiating new contract by the tag. The Franchise Tag is the real problem and the fact that the RB Tag value is so low is a component...

    WR Skyy Moore, KC

    Every year? Last year was the first one without a true WR1. The 5 previous years it was Hill and it very much did matter. People are acting like Mahomes not having a WR1 is a trend rather than 1 year out of 5.

    Gambling supsensions

    I've seen that number quotes by PFT a few times. Austin Ekler has mentioned a few times that he plays in leagues with either no cash or low buy-ins because of the rules. He plays mostly for bragging rights. I think this is true for other stuff like poker as well. Players can play games for...

    NFL players can play fantasy sports as long as the payout is below $250. I don't think a CB is going to risk his career and livelihood over that amount.

    RB Cam Akers, MIN

    One think that I don't think is brought up enough is that the Rams switched RB coaches mid season. Ra'Shaad Samples, 27 year old first time running back coach left the beginning of December 2022. Akers snap counts on returning to the roster when they tried to trade him or whatever was going on...

    Are Joe Burrow and the Bengals here to stay as a contender?

    What other QBs? Tua and Herbert are from the same draft class and I don't think they have been extended.

    RB Zach Charbonnet, SEA

    Maybe, but ultimately Walker was ineffective in short yardage situations and they thought they needed a "bigger" back to upgrade that part of the offense. Walker also being a uninvolved in the passing game makes it pretty clear why they drafted Charbs. I roster both players (in different...

    P Matt Araiza, BUF

    Chris Kluwe was cut by the Vikings for supporting same-sex marriage and calling out homophobes. Gruden cut Marquette King because he didn't like his dancing. Most teams view punters as a disposable commodity and do not want any sort of attention drawn by them, especially negative attention. Pat...

    QB Carson Wentz, KC

    NYJ won't cut Wilson for cap reasons and I doubt it makes sense to sign Wentz and carry 3 qbs but this is a pretty good list. Teams like CIN and LAC make the most sense. He's no threat to the current young qb but they have SB aspirations. Wentz could be successful with those WRs bailing him out...
