Fantasy Quiz of the Day: Best Fantasy Rookie Seasons for a Day 3 Pick, Last 10 Years
It might be harder to find immediate fantasy contributors on Day 3 of the NFL Draft, but it is by no means impossible. The Cowboys found their franchise quarterback in the fourth round in 2016. A fifth-round receiver in 2016 just got traded for a massive haul a few weeks ago. One from 2015 is […]

USFL DFS plays for Week 2
Week 1 of the USFL is in the books, and we saw some predictably ugly football overall. Most teams had very little time together to build chemistry and continuity, so we saw some very putrid performances from these offenses with expected No. 1 receivers actually bageling. We knew there would be a learning curve, but […]

USFL DFS Strategy: Tips and Roster Builds for Week 2
The United States Football League re-launched this past week after a 36-year hiatus. Injury reports were hard to come by and team depth charts were muddled and often flat-out wrong. Multiple teams experimented with a quarterback-by-committee approach. Through all of this, I was able to take second and seventh place in DraftKings’ large Sunday DFS […]

Best Ball Fades for the 2022 Fantasy Football Season
In fantasy football, the best teams are usually carried by 2-3 players vastly outperforming their average draft position. The same is true in best ball. I doubt those who drafted Cooper Kupp in the fourth round last year were far “better” drafters than average, yet teams with Cooper Kupp advanced at three times the average […]
