Writing about sports can be fun.

Fantasy Football season is upon us, and many drafters will face a draft dilemma. What side they choose will ultimately determine whether they draft a team that will languish in obscurity or one that can take home the fantasy title. Today, Jesse Raymond and I kick off our Draft Dilemma series with a battle of two former LSU Tiger teammates: Justin Jefferson vs. Ja’Marr Chase Justin Jefferson (Ryan Broyles) I wish to begin our first Draft Dilemma with a disclaimer: you cannot go wrong drafting Justin Jefferson or Ja’Marr Chase. They are both talented, young receivers in offenses that we…

The 2022 Fantasy Football season is upon us, and we are diving into mock drafts, projections, and rising and falling ADP. As we go through our process, we identify players we believe to be overrated and underrated. Today, we dive into the most underrated players in fantasy football. Javonte Williams, RB- Denver Broncos If there is a fantasy football running back that will emerge as a fantasy superstar in 2022–it is Javonte Williams. We saw glimpses a season ago of a player who is a cut above. The Denver Broncos’ offense takes a huge step forward with Russell Wilson under…

The 2022 Fantasy Football season is upon us, and we are diving into mock drafts, projections, rising and falling ADP. As we are going through our process, we are identifying players we believe to be overrated and underrated. Today, we dive into the most overrated players in fantasy football. Najee Harris, RB- Pittsburgh Steelers I do not understand the infatuation with Najee Harris entering the 2022 season. Najee is currently going in the top ten of early fantasy football drafts. Reports out of Pittsburgh are that they want to lessen the workload on Najee Harris. The workload was the primary…

What is Fantasy Football season for if you can’t release a bold prediction or a hot take? Today, we look at our five hot takes at the quarterback position for 2022. Lamar Jackson finishes the 2022 season as the QB1 Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens sustained as much bad luck as any team in the NFL a season ago. Injuries ravaged this team from the preseason throughout the year. Lamar Jackson has not signed a contract extension with the Ravens, choosing to bet on himself and to earn the raise. I anticipate Lamar Jackson playing somewhere between his 2019…

What is Fantasy Football season for if you can’t release a bold prediction or a hot take? Today, we look at our five hot takes at the running back position for 2022. Dalvin Cook finishes the 2022 season as the RB1 In 2021 Dalvin Cook was considered a top-three choice by many in the fantasy football community. Cook was injured at times during the 2021 season. Because of the injury concerns, Dalvin Cook has seen his draft stock drop to the end of the 1st round. We give Christian McCaffrey a pass, and he remains a top-three pick in most…

Today we take a look at the pass-catchers in Fantasy Football as we dive deep into the wide receiver position. Cooper Kupp won many fantasy managers their fantasy title a season ago. Can any receiver challenge him for the top spot? Find out today! TIER ONE: Cooper Kupp- Los Angeles Rams I expect some regression for Cooper Kupp in 2022 after a historic 2021 season. Even so, Cooper Kupp deserves the designation as the top receiver in fantasy for at least one more season. Justin Jefferson- Minnesota Vikings If any receiver in the league can challenge Cooper Kupp for the…

With the popularity of Dynasty Fantasy Football leagues at an all-time high, we wanted to look at how the Fantasy Football landscape can alter when fantasy managers must look more long-term. TIER ONE: Jonathan Taylor- Indianapolis Colts Jonathan Taylor is the clear Fantasy Football RB1 in Dynasty leagues. His role in the offense, talent, and age (23) are unparalleled. Javonte Williams- Denver Broncos Javonte Williams at #2 may come as a surprise to many. It is important to remember that Williams is only 22 years old. We know the talent is there, and with the Denver Broncos offense on the…

Historically, the running back position has been paramount throughout Fantasy Football. With the NFL evolving to a more pass-happy league, there are fewer and fewer every-down backs. Time to dive in and find the difference makers at the position. TIER ONE: Jonathan Taylor- Indianapolis Colts Jonathan Taylor may not have the ceiling of Christian McCaffrey, but he offers more reliability and a safer floor. JT feels as safe as a pick at the running back position that Fantasy Football can offer. Christian McCaffrey- Carolina Panthers Drafting Christian McCaffrey at this juncture carries its fair share of risks. Is C-Mac breaking…

The 2023 Fantasy Football season is on the horizon! No time like the present to dive into our positional rankings. We begin at the quarterback position: TIER ONE: Josh Allen- Buffalo Bills The King at the Quarterback position–Josh Allen truly deserves a tier to himself. Some may be concerned that Brian Daboll left the Bills for the Giants. I would not be concerned. The Buffalo Bills franchise is as solid as any in the NFL. You can bank on Josh Allen returning value. TIER TWO: Patrick Mahomes- Kansas City Chiefs Seeing Patrick Mahomes on the second tier may be alarming…

Underdog’s Best Ball Mania and other tournaments have taken off like wildfire. While we sit here in the dog days of summer, we can draft Best Ball teams and potentially become a millionaire! Today we look at the best value in Best Ball: Lamar Jackson, QB Ravens (ADP 52.8) On a week-to-week basis, Lamar Jackson offers as much upside as any quarterback in Fantasy Football not named Josh Allen. For comparison sakes, Josh Allen goes early-mid 3rd round in Best Ball drafts, and Lamar Jackson is selected in the mid-late 5th round range. One of my favorite stacks in Best…
