Eric Ebron to the Steelers

If I had to describe Ebron’s prevailing narrative, I would say that most dynasty owners consider Ebron to be a complete bust, who then had one outlier season in 2018 before fading back to normal in 2019. However, that narrative isn’t real. Ebron was consistently mediocre from 2015-2017, finishing as a high-end TE2 in each year. Both 2018 and 2019 are outliers compared to that stretch of middling performances. To determine the truth about Ebron, we need to go back and look beyond the top-line stats.

Perriman Signs with the Jets

Here’s a quick-hit reaction to Breshad Perriman signing with the Jets. In my last offseason reactions piece, I looked at Robby Anderson signing with the Panthers. Perriman signed with the Jets on a 1-year, $8 million contract to replace Anderson in the deep-threat role in the Jets’ offense. Since this move has the most significant effect on Perriman himself, let’s take a short dive into Perriman’s career up to this point.

Green Bay Packers Dynasty Outlook for 2020

It seems like decades ago that the Green Bay Packers were known as the team that sits out free agency. My how things have changed since Ted Thompson stepped aside for Brian Gutekunst. This year, the Packers have brought back some smaller, but important pieces on both sides of the ball this offseason. These re-signings are signals that they may value some of their current offensive talents more than we think. Let’s take a look at the Packers skill positions from a dynasty lens.

Kyler Murray: No Need To Worry 

Some dynasty owners have raised concerns about Kyler Murray’s ability to succeed at the NFL level. He ranked 27th in touchdown rate (3.7%) and threw 12 interceptions to 20 touchdowns. While he finished as the fantasy QB7, he had one of the lowest FPPG (18.82 ppg) out of the top 10 quarterbacks. Murray owners know how inconsistent he was last year,

After 20 years of terrorizing the AFC East, Tom Brady is taking his talents south to Tampa Bay. Brady in anything other than a Patriots’ jersey is going to take a while to get used to. While everyone else is still adjusting, let’s take a look at the fantasy implications of his move.

Everyone is touting “Their Guys” and making bold predictions for the Combine. I love taking in this information, as it gives me a better idea of how the community views the perceived athleticism and value of the upcoming rookies.

Pumping The Breaks On Stefon Diggs

Stefon Diggs, formerly part of the third-best WR duo with Adam Thielen and owner of the NFL’s second-best Twitter account (ranking only behind the self-proclaimed Lizard King, Sammy Watkins), has recently been traded. Anyone who watched Vikings games last season could see the frustration that Diggs and Thielen had with Cousins under center in the

Texans Offense: Gaping Holes and Glaring Opportunity

Without a doubt, the most surprising, perplexing and possibly season altering move was the Texans sending DeAndre Hopkins and a 2020 4th round pick to Arizona for David Johnson, a 2020 2nd round pick and a 4th round pick in 2021. The Texans also agreed to take on all of DJ’s bloated salary, which isn’t much less than Hopkins’.

Worst Landing Spots: QB 2020 NFL Draft

The quarterback position is somewhat similar to tight ends in that you’re usually fine with any landing spot affording you a shot at a legitimate and immediately productive fantasy asset. Drafting a starting quarterback is great but ask the Dwayne Haskins or Sam Darnold owners how they feel about it so far. Some teams are not equipped to support or develop a high-level quarterback. These are those organizations.

Digging for Jules: Is Julian Edelman worth a dynasty buy?

We all know the first rule of dynasty strategy. Successful owners find continued success because they are able to thread the needle of turning aging talent into young players and/or rookie picks. Julian Edelman is certainly a name owners are looking to sell as he enters his last year under contract, and possibly the end of his career. If you’re a team in contention, should the first rule apply, or should you be digging for Jules?
