I am a simple Wisconsin man: I love beer and sports. I decided to create FlurrySports because I was sick of the politics and non-stories that the fat cat corporations put out. When you see football articles from me, just know that I combine my knowledge from playing, coaching, athletic training, and sports management/economic courses to give you a unique, but I feel well-rounded point of view. I am always down to talk about anything, so follow me on Twitter @FantasyFlurry if you decide you want more of me!

Training camp is in full swing, preseason is about to officially start, and fantasy drafts are being planned. If you’re serious about taking home the championship this year, the time to start studying and researching begins yesterday! Here are my preseason fantasy football QB rankings, which can also be found in the FlurrySports Draft Kit, also known as 20 pages of free fantasy goodness! The provided ADP (Average Draft Position) is taken from 10-team PPR leagues. Preseason QB Rankings For all of your fantasy football questions and needs, there are three places for you to go.

The quarterback-needy Cleveland Browns sat with the second overall pick in the 2016 Draft, with two solid options set to go one and two. Instead of taking the player that the Rams didn’t want, the Browns decided to trade away their selection to the Philadelphia Eagles for multiple picks. While we now know what the Eagles got with Carson Wentz, what exactly did the Browns get from this seemingly terrible deal? Let’s take a look at the famous Carson Wentz trade. Eagles Acquired: 2016 #2 Overall Pick, 2017 Fourth-Round Pick Browns Acquired: 2016 8th, 77th and 100th Overall Picks,…

Nothing is quite like fantasy football. The feeling of showing your friends just how much more you know about football than them is something special. And along with this competition, having the best team name is also a must. Showing your leaguemates that you have the funniest, most creative team is just part of dominating the league. So with that, I have compiled a list of names for the upcoming year that are sure to make you laugh and show the other guys who’s boss. I put emphasis on players who were relevant for this next season. Rookies Hey Darnold!…

On Thursday night, the NFL Hall of Fame game marked the first real football action we have had in months! We got to see the Hall of Fame inductees (minus T.O.), hear about the new helmet rule for the full four quarters, and see the debut of the first-round draft pick, Lamar Jackson. Jackson Starts the Second Half After Robert Griffin III played for nearly the full first half, Lamar Jackson was given reins for the entire second half. There were both good and bad moments, but to put it simply, Jackson looked every bit like a rookie. When…

The bad injury luck continues for the Green Bay Packers. On Monday, Packers Camp experienced a few different injuries. Defensive lineman Mike Daniels took a shot to the thigh, but told the media he was fine. Safety Kentrell Brice was carted off the field, but managed to avoid any breaks and was seen standing gingerly at Packers Camp today. The most significant injury suffered was with fourth-year linebacker Jake Ryan, who looks to be lost for the season. Ryan suffered a knee injury and was on the ground “screaming in pain.” The Athletic’s Michael Cohen immediately labeled the injury “serious,”…

It was hardly surprising, but it was welcome news in late May when deputy commissioner Bill Daly announced the league’s much-loved tradition of NHL alternate jerseys would be returning for the 2018-19 season. “We are bringing back third jerseys next season,” he said. “I can’t tell you the number exactly, but about a third of the teams will have a different one.” If there’s a surprise in there at all, it’s the number. One-third of the NHL’s 31 teams is 10 or 11, which would be a break from recent trends. To this point, the jersey juggling has seemed pretty…

Now that training camp has begun, many football fans will struggle to focus on anything besides the sport, myself included. It’s our first taste of somewhat real football action in months, so it’s enough to hold us over until week 1 in among us. Even though September 6th is still a long ways away, we can still look at and break down week 1, especially if we’re making some NFL bets. My favorite betting site is MyBookie.ag, and their lines will be used for the five matchups below. If you do not yet have an account on MyBookie, click here…
