Rookie Wide Receivers on the Rise in Fantasy Football

Okay, I watch preseason games. Don’t judge me. Everyone has their things. Some people like to sit by the railroad tracks and throw rocks at passing trains. Some people leave their shopping carts in parking spaces when they are done with them. I watch preseason football in the NFL. I do it for you so that I can provide you with rookie wide receivers who should be on your radar. Week 2 of the preseason saw some more big plays and brought opportunity to rookie wide receivers. I have stated before that just as last season…

Fantasy Premier League Draft Week 2: Risers and Fallers

With Manchester City and Liverpool already taking charge at the top of the pile, you get the sense that even after only two weeks of the season the Premier League table is already taking shape. For that reason, players from the early frontrunners and title favourites will rarely figure in these articles due to their almost certain high ownership. Besides, it doesn’t take a Draft Fantasy Football expert to say “pick Benjamin Mendy”.Last week’s article was certainly a mixed bag. From those recommended, Richarlison and Ryan…

Premier League: Draft Waiver Wire Week 2

As former Premier League manager Ian Holloway once told us in his dulcet Bristol accent: "To put it in gentleman's terms if you've been out for a night and you're looking for a young lady, and you pull one, some weeks they're good looking, and some weeks they're not the best. Our performance today would have been not the best-looking bird, but at least we got her in the taxi. She wasn't the best looking lady we ended up taking home, but she was very pleasant and very nice, so thanks very much, let's have a coffee." Ian…

Minor League Report: Krazy for Michael Kopech

This piece might be new to Fantrax, but it's a piece I've been writing all season long. Fantrax and I had been going steady for a while, but now things have gotten serious, which is why I bring this piece over from FantasyPros where I used to write it. I know you're used to Dynasty Dugout on Tuesdays, but the Michael Kopech promotion threw a curveball into my weekly plans. Actually, more like a Chris Sale slider (rest up big guy). But don't worry, I'm just pulling the old switcharoo with Dynasty Dugout coming later in the…

NFC Training Camp Report: 8/21

This past week in NFC training camp has added a bit of clarity to some running back situations. Wait, what I meant to say was that it makes things even more difficult to predict. Yes, that's what I meant. Adrian Peterson is back, Jeremy McNichols is the current RB1 in San Francisco, and Latavius Murray may "split carries" with Dalvin Cook. Yes, it's a lot to take in. Luckily I broke it all down for you, team by team.I have been taking a close look at training camp every week for the latest news and how it…

Can We Bench Willson Contreras and Buster Posey?

Shortly after he had just completed a particularly brutal month of June, I pondered whether it made sense to bench Salvador Perez. Even though I was discussing this in the context of a 15-team mixed league, it seemed like a drastic thing to consider for a player who was typically the first catcher drafted after the Big Three of Gary Sanchez, Willson Contreras, and Buster Posey.It turns out that the dilemma that Perez owners faced was a minor nuisance compared to what owners of the Big Three are having to deal with. Now…
