As fans, we fear the worst, but non-contact knee injuries generally do not bring good news. New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman went down in a heap during their preseason game against the Detroit Lions. While the severity of the injury has yet to be confirmed, the team believes that Edelman suffered a torn ACL, at the very least. Edelman’s MRI is scheduled for Saturday, and his teammates are doing their best to remain positive. “We’ll see what the extent of it is,” Tom Brady said. “We’re hoping for the best. It’s a tough thing for a teammate to…

The friendly season-long wager between myself and Zach of Flurry Sports continues tonight with Part 2. The East! We make our predictions for how we think the NFC & AFC East divisions will shake out in tonight’s edition of #FANvsFLURRY
Your first round pick is important in fantasy success, but finding those breakout players during the season is what wins championships. Think about it, the person you draft first is expected to do well. That is exactly why you picked them right away, thus it is almost impossible for your first player to be a good value pick. That is why finding this season’s Jordan Howard or Terrelle Pryor Sr. is so important. You get a high-value guy for next to nothing, then you can rub it in the faces of your leaguemates. Here, I am sharing five sleepers (QB,…

K-Mill is back! We trash the Bills pretty hard in the beginning but we eventually cover the AFC West and NFC East, the Sammy Watkins trade, Jordan Matthews being traded, and the Zeke suspension as well!
#5– Mike Evans Evans is a player that has been ranked all over the place this season, which makes a lot of sense. He is an explosive, big, and talented wide receiver that gets a large amount of targets. In fact, he received 30% of the Buccaneers’ passing attempts last season. So, there are two main ideas surrounding Evans: 1) His talent and target share puts him in the top-three conversation, or 2) His target share is not sustainable, and his numbers will go down with targets. Clearly, I am in the second boat. The Bucs have had a depleted…
We’ve seen some preseason games, training camp news, injuries and even some big trades. This means it was time to update my rankings a little bit as we head into draft season. Previously, my rankings were in standard scoring. Due to many requests (and because it’s my favorite way to play anyways), the rest of the rankings this season will be in PPR format, so expect to see a slight boost to pass-catchers. Without further ado, here are my preseason top-120 rankings for PPR scoring leagues!
Seemingly out of nowhere, the Bills pulled off two trades in a matter of seconds that nobody saw coming. First, the Bills traded injury-prone Sammy Watkins to the LA Rams with a 2018 sixth-round pick in exchange for cornerback E.J. Gaines and a 2018 second-round draft pick. The second trade sent cornerback Ronald Darby to the Eagles in exchange for wide receiver Jordan Matthews and a 2018 third-round pick. Sammy Watkins is a 24-year-old who offers tremendous upside, but has been hit with nagging injuries early in his career. He has put together a tremendous camp, so if there was…
