Dynasty Injury Impact: Jay Ajayi Out For The Season

After weeks of showing up on the injury report Jay Ajayi’s season is over. It wasn’t due to the fractured back, which cost Ayai one game this season and may have limited him in others. Instead, Ajayi tore his ACL sometime during Sunday’s game against the Vikings. Let’s dig into the aftermath of the Ajayi […]

This Week’s MFL TOP 10 Waiver Wire Adds Review

Week 4 saw roughly every tight end in the National Football League injured. Excluding the tight ends that were already injured that is. The week four injury purge is reflected in the Top My Fantasy League adds this week. Five of the top 10 adds were at the tight end position. Every week I like to

Last Week’s MFL Top 10 Adds Player Review

After taking last week off, I’m back examining the value of this weeks top 10 MFL adds. As an aside, this is the third different title I’ve used for this series. Maybe this one will stick. In case this is the first time reading this series, I won’t review all 10 players. Instead, I’ll focus

The Josh Gordon era is coming to an end in Cleveland. Whether he will be released, as Cleveland GM John Dorsey’s statement indicates or not is the only remaining question.

Jarvis Landry: 2018 League Leader in Targets

At this time three weeks ago I had Jarvis Landry penciled in for roughly an 80/800/4 TD on 110 targets line for the 2018 season. Things change quickly in the NFL and my oh my how things have changed in Cleveland. Josh Gordon has taken a sabbatical, either to avoid the bright lights of HBO’s “Hard Knocks,”

Crowded House: Cleveland Browns

Unless you’re a member of the “Sex Pistols” I’ll assume much like myself you dislike anarchy and disorder. I prefer when decisions are easy and largely made for me based on situation or circumstance. Playing fantasy football doesn’t always allow for simple binary decisions though. Sometimes there are situations with so many moving parts that

SuperFlex Leagues: Trading the Quarterback

One of my favorite aspects of Superflex leagues is that I believe the extra Quarterback position helps facilitate trading, which happens to be one of the things I love most in life. Lately, one specific type of trade has become my move. Moving Quarterbacks within the same tiers. Sometimes I’ll even drop down a tier, depending

FFPC Draft Review

This year, DFF was lucky enough to start having our signature Dynasty Leagues hosted via Fantasy Football Players Championship (FFPC). Furthermore, I was lucky enough to champion one of these inaugural leagues. My league is a $77, 12 team Standard Dynasty league. The FFPC leagues have a few caveats.

Trading Post: Nuk Bomb

Welcome back to the semi-regular series “The Trading Post”. One of my favorite aspects of Dynasty Football is making trades. So much so that I actually co-host a podcast on the subject, the DynastyTradesHQ podcast (subscribe today!). I make a lot of trades, partly due to being in 25+ dynasty leagues, partly due to a

Under the Radar Winners: NFL Draft Day 1

[profiler]Case Keenum[/profiler] probably breathed a giant sigh of relief when the Browns surprised most of North America and selected Denzel Ward instead of Bradley Chubb. If Chubb isn’t available for the Broncos to draft at 5, it’s hard to fathom them not using that pick to take a franchise quarterback instead. Chubb is too much of an

Dynasty Nightmares (NFL Draft Edition)

A fatalist by nature I’ve decided to look at some scenarios that would turn the NFL Draft into my own personal Dynasty nightmare in what has now become an annual event (two years in a row counts right?).

Cap Fakes and Repercussions: Jerick McKinnon

Listening to a recent @Capology101  podcast while driving the other day, an idea for an article sprung to mind. Or I completely ripped off their premise and ran with it. I say tomato, you say theft.
