A good quarterback is hard to come by in the NFL. Packers fans laugh at this notion since they have enjoyed Favre or Rodgers under center for almost three decades. For Browns fans, this may be a more sensitive subject. I thought it would be interesting to take a look at all 32 starting quarterbacks in the NFL and see where exactly they were drafted. It makes sense that most of these players were drafted early, but the best stories come from those undrafted players who have fought for every ounce of success from day one. We’ll take a look…

Let me start this off by saying that I am a supporter of preseason games. It seems like this opinion becomes less and less popular each football season due to NFL preseason injuries, but from a coach’s point of view, it is absolutely essential. For one, teams have to trim their roster down to 53 players. Joint practices are not enough to determine who can play and who cannot. Have you ever heard of a practice MVP? They’re great in practice when there’s no pressure, but when the lights turn on and the crowd comes in, they fold. We need…
Now that we have seen each team’s “dress rehearsal,” it is time to update my rankings one last time before the start of the regular season! Week three of the preseason has brought us clarity, confusion, injuries, and more injuries. There was a lot of news and noteworthy information that shakes my rankings up. So without further ado, let’s jump into my top-120 PPR fantasy football rankings. **You can sort my rankings by position OR by team! For example, try typing in (NE) in the search bar!
Every year there are waiver wire gems that go on to win someone their league. These players usually come out of nowhere, but with a little research, you could be ahead of the game. I know doing research can suck, so I might as well do it for you! Last season, I talked up Jordan Howard constantly, then he went on to finish as one of the league’s best running backs. This year’s Jordan Howard is out there somewhere, so let’s take a look at who it may be. Everyone on this list has an ADP of over 150 (according…
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,…
