Not all fantasy football cheat sheets and sleeper lists are created equal. With so many experts and so many sites, it can be overwhelming to figure out the best source for overall player rankings from one year (and draft) to the next. The constantly updated consensus rankings at Fantasy Pros are a helpful composite, but even with other sites gaining popularity heading into 2022, chances are many will be drafting and playing most of their leagues on either Yahoo or ESPN. Although Yahoo… Source link

It’s easy for players to get lost in the weeds, being completely forgotten about as we try to adjust on the fly to the newest available information. That’s why… Source link

When consensus first-round fantasy draft pick Austin Ekeler isn’t slicing through defenses this fall, he’ll be moonlighting in a gig that feels rather appropriate, if not a little meta: fantasy football analyst. Driving the news: The Chargers running back’s weekly fantasy football show, “Ekeler’s Edge,” is returning to Yahoo Sports for a second season starting Sept. 7. The video and podcast series will run on 18 consecutive Wednesdays as Ekeler and co-host Matt Harmon, a Yahoo fantasy analyst,… Source link

Later in the show, Dan & Pat dissect some… Source link

The Houston Texans drafted Deshaun Watson in 2017. He missed most of his rookie season with an injury, but when he returned, the Texans won football games. They made the playoffs in 2018 and 2019, and even won a playoff game against the Buffalo Bills. With a young quarterback at the controls, it looked like the Texans were set up to be a consistently good team in the AFC for years to come. Things changed quickly. They basically gave away an elite wide receiver in DeAndre Hopkins. They won… Source link

Jackob Brandeburg of CBS7 shared video of the brawl that broke out between players in multiple locations along the end zone concourse. A… Source link

Back in January, on the day when two of his schools (Georgia and Alabama) would again compete for the national championship, SEC commissioner Greg Sankey made a final pitch for the establishment of a new College Football Playoff. It featured 12 teams. The field would be made up of six guaranteed bids to the top six conference champions, plus six more selected by a committee. The top four champs would receive a first-round bye. The opening-round games would be played on the campus of the… Source link
