Fantasy Football: The Running-Back Evolution

Football has definitely changed into a passing league everyone close to the game knows this. However in the fantasy world the running back has regained value in a different manner than in the past. RB’s used to be the most sought after position based on talent and point production. It wasn’t long ago that the entire first round of the Fantasy Football Draft would be consumed with runners. In 2017 the value of the Running Back is again extremely high but from a different perspective. The value is higher because they’re extremely rare. Elite Running Backs: David Johnson LeVeon Bell Zeke Elliott Shady McCoy DeMarco Murray Since most teams employ a multi-back system and feel that running backs can be easily interchangeable, there is a major drop off from the traditional bell-cow three down back. Not many teams have the elite three down type of player aside from Arizona (David Johnson), Pittsburgh (LeVeon Bell), Dallas (Zeke Elliott), Buffalo (Shady McCoy), and Tennessee

Fantasy Football – Strength of Schedule

An often overlooked item for fantasy drafts is strength of schedule for each player. Though difficult to predict in August one can make a keen judgement on how teams should fair in the season, understanding value that not many see. Value #1 Ranking the weakest opponents for fantasy playoffs is a great technique when drafting your team. This shouldn’t be the main reason you choose players in the draft, but if you have a difficult choice and the clock is ticking this is a great idea to potentially help get you over the hump come December. I have used this tactic many times with great success and now is a fixture within my draft kits.  Draft Kit Release Aug.18.2017!!! Value #2 From the opposite perspective viewing your player schedules come week 10 you will undoubtedly see the trend of a difficult schedule. Take advantage of this. Some players preform far better when playoff hopes are on the line or when their competition is tougher. Understanding the player and his ski

The Quarterback - A Fundamental Issue

Pro Football is forever evolving and with that teams should as well, right? We’re all familiar with the phrase ‘it’s a copy-cat league’, so here is the fundamental problem! It’s time to “STEP OUTSIDE THE BOX”!! Out of all the colleges (approximately 884 schools with a varsity football team) in the United States, the National Football League still has an issue finding 32 elite level quarterbacks for every team. Even though it’s regarded as the most important position in all of sports, confused, well you should be. Problem #1 – Lack of Appropriate Evaluation  Each school must provide a listing to NFL teams scouting departments with their evaluation of their best players. From this listing it is revised and dissected to provide a ranking system to set these players apart (we see this typically done for the NFL Draft). However, why are certain players being left off these lists and being picked up as UDFA (undrafted free agents), or left out of the league all together? The vast li

NFL BLOCKBUSTER TRADE ALERT – Recap & Evaluation

Shocking start to a Friday morning to hear star Buffalo Bills WR Sammy Watkins has been dealt to the LA Rams!!! In a subsequent move the Buffalo Bills sent - up and coming stud DB Ronald Darby to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for WR Jordan Matthews! VERY Interesting moves to say the least. By now everyone should be aware of the trade details but let break this down further. Buffalo Bills Trade to LA Rams:                                                    WR Sammy Watkins                                                                       2018 Sixth Round Pick                                                                      LA Rams Trade to Buffalo Bills DB E.J. Gaines 2018 Second Round Pick                                                              On the surface it appears the Rams have won this deal, as the Bills part ways with admission to giving up on Sammy and the extra picks it took to get him. To all Bills fans; let this digest a little

Fantasy Football Draft & Season Strategy

As the fantasy draft season quickly approaches, many have their techniques on how they attack their draft. It’s important to note that a championship team can be made in many ways but having one solid platform to draft your squad is invaluable. This is where I come in (wink, wink), I will help even the average fantasy manger excel at running their team all the way to the promise land! Let’s face it; it’s all about winning championships!!! And boy do I like to win!!! Knowing the Players: Far too often I see many individuals trying to ‘wing it’, when it comes to running a fantasy team. Let me remove this thought process from your mind right away. Like everything in life, do it right or don’t do it at all, (no disrespect intended). My brand represents the hard core nature of eating, sleeping, breathing football. Though this might not be for everyone (which is fine), still understand you must do your research before you enter a league to be competitive. Knowing the stud players will
