The 2018 NFL Scouting Combine has begun! But there’s more to this set of workouts than meets the eye! So we came up with a couple handfuls of great NFL Combine facts you didn’t know, but will be happy to learn (if just to annoy your buddies). These interesting NFL Combine facts will definitely help …
One of the most iconic cards in the hobby is the 1986 Topps Jerry Rice Rookie Card, so I tracked down some amazing facts you might not already know!
The 2018 fantasy football first round should be full of more running backs than wide receivers compared to recent seasons. We’re talking in both standard and PPR formats and most other mock draft types. I’m a big believer in being prepared. I’m like a boy scout, only… more prepared. That’s why I break down the …
The 2017 Fantasy Football Quarterback Rankings are just plain fun. Unlike ranking other positions, ranking the best Fantasy quarterbacks for this season is relatively easy. From year to year, there just aren’t as many changes as there are at most of the other positions. At wide receiver, you’ll likely have three or four guys move …
From the moment Roger Goodell said “With the fourth pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys select Ezekiel Elliott,” the Fantasy Football world has fallen head-over-heels in love with the rookie running back out of Ohio State. But I’m here to tell you — Don’t draft Ezekiel Elliott in Round 1 of your …
The Monday Night Football game from Week 13 will feature two teams surprisingly still in the hunt for the NFC East title as the Washington Redskins will host the Dallas Cowboys. Fanpicks.com is proud to sponsor tonight’s daily fantasy football picks.
DeMarco Murray just turned 27 years old in February, and the Dallas Cowboys were unable to re-sign the franchise’s new single-season rushing leader. He ended up signing with the Philadelphia Eagles because he liked what head coach Chip Kelly was bringing to the table with his high-octane offensive gameplan. Had Murray returned to the Cowboys, …
As I watch Oklahoma face off against Clemson in the Russel Athletic Bowl (it feels wrong to say the name of a sponsor), and face off is a misnomer in this case due to the lack of competitiveness so far, I see Cole Stoudt, the Clemson quarterback, complete wide receiver screens ad nauseam against the Oklahoma …
Ahhh, you’ve accidentally clicked on the Week 8 Kicker rankings once again, while your sausage fingers were trying to click on maybe the tight end rankings? Or the defense/special teams rankings? Never mind, it doesn’t matter now. You’re here, you might as well get comfortable and read up on some kickers! It’s like when you …
We’re three weeks into the world of bye weeks, which means a lot of us have had to cut defenses we like in order to pick up a defense that’s not on a bye. Our Week 7 DST rankings are just two teams short this week, as the Buccaneers and Eagles will have their bye …
I've often found that you can target players that start slowly because of bad schedules, then get them just before they face much better schedules in the middle part of the season. We're going to examine the best and worst Fantasy Football strength of schedules at quarterback. Consider the tips and bits of advice as …
Before we get right into the Week 9 Waiver Wire Adds, I'd like to note; Marvin Jones should have been included in this column already. The reason he wasn't is simple. Personal attachment to Mohamed Sanu. After watching his nifty three-week stretch last season, where he scored 4 times and was pegged as a Sleeper …
This week, I am going to mix it up a little bit and look back at some sleepers I picked early this year and see how they have been doing as well as give you my picks for this week. But before we do that, lets see how last week's group performed. If you thought …
Bleacher Report's Eric Mack and I get together for another podcast, previewing the Week 8 matchups (sorta) and looking at six different Fantasy players to target for this second half. There are a couple names that should surprise you, for sure. We also help several callers with their Fantasy Football lineup issues, including two guys …
Last week's pick were not quite as good as some of my prior picks, but I took a few chances on some very iffy players. Hopefully, my Week 7 sleepers will do even better. Tampa Bay's Brian Leonard didn't get a carry or a reception or a sniff at running back. I guess they will …
Before I get into the Week 6 sleepers, let's see how I did last week. In honor of the MLB playoffs, I will categorize my picks with some baseball terminology. Home Run Vincent Brown killed it for the Chargers last week -- 8 catches for well over 100 yards. That's knocking it out of the park …
The Bye Week bonanza begins now, which makes your waiver wire surfing all the more important and potentially rewarding. Keep your eyes peeled for potential improvements that others are dropping, or plan your own lineup complications a week in advance to avoid over spending, or potentially losing out. But ultimately, make your moves count. If …
Two deep and it has been everything you've waited for since last December when your league's championship was won right? Remember it isn't time to give up on some top options. Steven Ridley will turn it around and Roddy White will get going eventually. Cam Newton started slow last season and was the best QB …
Week 1 is in the books, you won, you lost, you might have even notched the rare draw. Regardless, it isn't time to sit on your roster, here are your top Week 2 Waiver Wire Adds. We already looked at some potential additions this weekend, but after the action this week more have emerged. Week …
The stock market is a lot like Fantasy Football. When a player’s value is at their lowest, it’s wise to invest in that stock, especially one that has nothing to lose. I have formulated a list of veterans that I believe are Fantasy value plays and whose stocks are relatively low. Some of these players …
We’re going to give you six very good passing teams that have non-committal wide receiver positions. And we're going to tell you which guys to look out for in your Fantasy drafts that can potentially help you win your league. Everyone loves wide receiver Fantasy steals! This will also make the receiver depth for each …
Who are the top 2013 running back handcuffs? A great question indeed, but with all the running back committees in the league, perhaps the real question is who exactly is a true handcuff these days? You know, the type Michael Turner was in his Lightning Bolt days, or Maurice Morris was behind Shaun Alexander before …
This is part of a series of articles I’m writing that’s designed to inform people born in the ‘80s. I'm surrounded by people in their 20s and 30s, yet they are unfamiliar with a lot of great stories. My generation had to learn about the AFL and the ABA, and the current generation needs to …
Man, it sure was nice to have real football action on Wednesday night. (Wednesday football? It’s like Christmas in July!) The Cowboys upset the Giants, who had a little Super Bowl hangover going, and it was the first time the NFL champ lost their season opener in years. (Side grumble: Remember when the Bucs won …
Welcome to the ProFootballMatchups.com breakdown of the Cowboys vs Giants game to kickoff the regular season for the NFL! The Cowboys are looking to make it back into the playoffs after missing out the last two seasons. The defense was a major disappointment in 2011, allowing 343.2 yards per game, with 244.1 of those yards …
