It’s a well-known trope that tight ends typically take several years to develop into productive members of the fantasy football community. There are outliers to this truism such as Gronk, Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates and Greg Olsen, who just happen to be the four greatest tight ends to play during my lifetime. They all broke

The NFL season has basically reached its midway point with Week 8 now behind us. Most fantasy leagues only have another 5 weeks of regular season action to look forward to.

I have to be honest, I want to like Ty Montgomery, I really do, so I’ve been scouring the internet for hours now for something, anything to buttress my argument. Here’s the thing, everything I’ve looked at keeps screaming JAG (Just A Guy) at me. Montgomery could not be more of a JAG unless his name

NFL Week 6 is in the books and once again, we appear to have missed any serious injuries on the offensive side of the ball with the exception of Ben Roethlisberger injuring his knee. For a moment there it looked like we might have lost both Odell Beckham Jr and LeSean McCoy, but both finished

Tight End is a tricky position. You have some players come out of nowhere to become fantasy relevant after years of obscurity. You have other players that seem destined to break out every season yet fail to do so. And finally you have a group of Tight Ends who seem to be able to put

Here we are entering NFL Week 6, and with the majority of fantasy leagues’ regular seasons going through week 13, we’ll be approaching the halfway point of the fantasy season shortly.

Welcome to NFL Week 4! Unlike last week’s blood bath of injuries, this past week proved to be much less damaging to fantasy rosters. There were a few injuries of note to players like Jeremy Langford and Shane Vereen, but if you were depending on either one of them to lead you to fantasy championships,

After a relatively injury free Week 1 in the NFL, with only 1 significant injury for fantasy purposes, Week 2 kicked the injury door off its hinges, particularly at the running back position. This of course has created multiple opportunities for several players to see more playing time as both short term and long term

Mr. Freeman seems to elicit disdain, if not vitriol, when discussed in the fantasy community. It’s as if everyone is upset that he seized the opportunity last season and ran with it away with it. Mixed feelings about Freeman aren’t new, they go back to scouting reports from the 2014 draft. He was described by
