For Fantasy Sake

Cam Newton signed a one-year deal with the New England Patriots on Sunday evening What should you expect from 2015 MVP quarterback? Quarterback Cam Newton signed a one-year-deal with the New England Patriots worth up to $7.5 million, per league sources who told ESPN's Chris Mortensen and Adam Schefter . After suffering several injuries over the last couple seasons, including a Lisfranc injury that cost the quarterback 14 games last year, the Patriots have found their answer under center. It’s important to note that learning the Patriots playbook has been notoriously difficult and given the late timing of this signing I would follow reports out of New England very closely over the coming months to see if Newton is even ready for Week 1. Newton certainly provides an upgrade over 2019 fourth-round pick Jarrett Stidham or journeyman quarterback Bryan Hoyer and provides a small ray of hope to all those fantasy owners with New England pieces. The 2015 MVP finds himself right back i...

We likely saw Cam Newton's worst game of the season in Week 1, so now is the  perfect time to go make a trade offer to buy him while he's cheap.   It's hard to not fall victim to the overreaction theater that is the NFL after just one week. You've waited so long for the season to finally be back, put in tons of hours researching and reading -- hopefully my stuff, because, let's face it, these takes are fire -- all the news on your players, so it feels like you know EVERYTHING. I'm here to tell you: You don't. So making trades after one week of action ... not always the best thing to do. But if you're itching to pull the trigger on a deal and need your trade fix, here are three options to trade FOR, and three options to trade AWAY. Trade For Cam Newton, QB, Carolina Panthers We probably saw Cam’s worst game of 2019. He didn’t look good at all. Granted, I’m not a big believer in drafting QBs high or trading much away for them, but I think...

It took a bit too long for the Bills to turn the game  over to Devin Singletary in Week 1, but once he got  action he looked good. Will he see enough volume  week to week to be a viable fantasy option? After just one week of football being behind us, it seems no team is exempt from having questions surrounding them. We've got team-by-team breakdown from all 32 teams and what their biggest storyline or concerns are after Week 1.  Arizona Cardinals: Can Kyler Murray be a season-long QB1 in 12 teams leagues? He was QB11 in Week 1 in a tie against the Lions, but it took a him half to get his feet under him. Murray threw the ball for 308 yards and two scores, but had just 13 yards rushing. I would expect the passing yards go down, but the rushing yards go up, keeping him in the conversation most of the season. Atlanta Falcons: Will the Falcons have a running game? The Vikings defense is really good, they allowed just 12 fantasy points to Devonta Freeman and...

Following this Antonio Brown debacle has been ... interesting to say the very least. But what do you do with him if you drafted him? Chances are, if you drafted Antonio Brown, you've been following along with the never-ending saga that's been playing out in Oakland. Even if you faded Brown in drafts, it's like a train wreck ... you. just. can't. look. away.  Let's recap this hot mess of an offseason for Brown:  Frostbitten feet Filed a grievance about his helmet Said he wouldn't play without wearing his old helmet Sat out of preseason practices Showed back up to camp Sent the discipline letter he received out on social media Issues emotional apology ... and it was accepted Was fined more than $250K and his $29M guaranteed was revoked Demanded he be released ... via Instagram Raiders hit him with the nah wave and released him And the latter four all happened in a matter of hours. It's been a hell of a last 48 hours. God bles...
