Jacoby Brissett Heads to Washington on 1-Year Deal
After an impressive enough campaign as the Browns’ interim starter during the Deshaun Watson suspension in 2022, Jacoby Brissett signed with the Washington Commanders in free agency Wednesday, signing a one-year deal worth a reported $10 million, with $8 million in guarantees. The Commanders will be Brissett’s fifth team in eight years, following stints in […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Heads to New England
The Patriots wasted little time in replacing the departed Jakobi Meyers, agreeing to terms with former Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster Wednesday on a deal equivalent to the one Meyers signed in Las Vegas. Both receivers got three-year, $33 million deals. Smith-Schuster certainly has a higher ceiling than Meyers. They’re less than two weeks apart […]

Baker Mayfield Lands in Tampa on 1-Year Deal
The next era in Tampa Bay Buccaneers football began Wednesday, as the team agreed to terms on a contract with Baker Mayfield. The pact is a one-year deal worth $8.5 million. That’s what we call in the business a “prove-it” deal, but it’s one that does position Mayfield as the presumptive starter in 2023. Following […]

Jakobi Meyers Reunites with Ex-Patriots Coach in Las Vegas
The Las Vegas Raiders added another piece on the offensive side of the ball, signing Jakobi Meyers to a three-year deal worth $33 million. It’s been a quiet 24 hours at wide receiver, with Meyers being the only noteworthy free agency signing. A cool wideout market likely limited what got in this deal, as his […]

Injured Players to Remember in Fantasy Football
The worst part of fantasy football is drafting a team that you feel good about, only to have your season derailed by injury. It is even worse when the players who get hurt are premium picks in your league’s fantasy draft. It is extremely easy to get caught up in the excitement of the […]

5 Teams Set to Improve in Fantasy in 2023
