2020 Dynasty MVPs

In 2019, Chris Godwin, Austin Ekeler, and Mark Andrews were dynasty MVPs. They gained extreme dynasty value and also produced as top options at their positions. I’m not necessarily saying that any or all of these players will make the jump. However, considering where each player’s value currently falls in dynasty leagues, they have the upside to demolish that value.

D.J. Chark: 2020 Dynasty Profile

When the Jacksonville Jaguars selected D.J. Chark in the 2nd round of the 2018 NFL Draft, they knew they were getting, if nothing else, a truly special athlete: an outside receiver standing 6’ 3” tall, with 4.3 speed and a 93rd percentile burst score. After Chark’s disappointing rookie season, in which he accumulated just 14 receptions in 11 games, many wrote him off as another combine warrior in the same vein as Breshad Perriman. In 2019 however, D.J. Chark broke out, turning 117 targets into over 1,000 receiving yards and 8 TDs and finishing as the WR17.

Redraft Team Focus: Jaguars

In this article series, I’m analyzing every one of the 32 NFL teams and all of their redraft-relevant fantasy assets. It’s a long project, but I want to make sure that you, the reader, have something you can refer to for every team. For each article, I’ll split up the fantasy assets into three categories: high-end assets, usable contributors, and dart throws. Unfortunately for fantasy owners, this is another one of those fantasy black holes. It’s time to look at the unfortunate situation that is the Jacksonville Jaguars.

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.

Foles to Chicago: The Meaning for Mitch, Minshew and Franchises

This piece will cover the dynasty impact of the recent trade of Nick Foles from the Jaguars to the Bears. Let’s jump right in.    The Trade After deciding to go forward with Gardner Minshew as their starting quarterback, the Jaguars were looking to trade former starter Nick Foles. After searching for a few weeks, they settled on the Bears as a trade partner. The Jaguars received the 140th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, a compensatory fourth-rounder, in exchange for Foles.   Foles vs. Trubisky Based on just the money, one would expect Foles to be the Bears’ 2020 starter. Foles will receive $15.625 million from the Bears in 2020, while Trubisky will earn just $9.327 million. However, money is not the only part of the equation.  Bears GM, Ryan Pace, traded significant capital in the 2017 NFL Draft to trade up and select Trubisky second overall. It seems like both Pace, and head coach Matt Nagy, have bet their jobs on Trubisky’s success. Therefore, I believe that whether it’s the correct choice or not, Trubisky will get the first crack to start in 2020. In my opinion, we are heading for the same situation that Marcus Mariota and Ryan Tannehill were in for the 2019 season. Trubisky will get every opportunity to prove himself as the starter, but if he continues to fail, the Bears will not hesitate to make a mid-season quarterback change. Even though Trubisky starting is what I believe will happen, that’s a different question from what should happen. Let’s put Trubisky’s and Foles’
