Fantasy Football 2017

Just three weeks of rankings left, and we're fortunate enough to welcome Aaron Rodgers back into the fold. The quarterback rankings felt amost empty without him, and the same could be said at wide receiver. With the veteran gunslinger back, Jordy Nelson vaults back inside the Top 20 this week, as we can expect big things from the normally dynamic duo. There are also some big points to be had on defense this week. The Ravens could do big things against the Browns, while the Lions (owned in all of 57% of leagues) could also be…

You could make a case for Week 14 as the most exciting week of the 2017 regular season. We had our first blizzard game, the Browns nearly had a win, and some guy called Trey Burton led all tight ends in fantasy points (24.1). Seriously, though, this was a big week for owners, and quite an unpredictable one. There were some big breakout performers that we'd kinda forgotten about, and a few big names that were a real Debbie downer. Here's your recap: Thumbs UpCan the Cowboys actually salvage this thing? They might…

For most of you, this is where the fun begins: fantasy football playoffs. Unfortunately, it falls on a week that features some of the season's toughest matchups, as games between the Falcons/Saints, Eagles/Rams, and Chiefs/Raiders hold some real-life playoff implications of their own. If you're on team Brady, you can probably count on a bounce-back week against the Dolphins. Of course, if you own shares in Antonio Brown, you can probably find solace in the fact that he owns 874 career yards and three touchdowns versus the…

What can we take away from Week 13? The playoff picture may be no clearer than it was a week ago, and as far as fantasy is concerned, it really was the week of the running back. Lost among the NFC South/AFC West playoff talk was Tom Brady's unusual 258-yard, zero-touchdown, one-interception performance against the Bills. He totaled only 8.3 PPR points on Sunday, a rare occurrence indeed. Fortunately, if you do own Brady, the following players more than made up for his un-MVP like performance. Here's your Week 13 wrap:…

As we head into Week 13, Michael Crabtree is the only notable player missing from the wide receiver ranks. Of course, we can't look past the Eli Manning exclusion -- oh, and the fact that 10% of people have jumped all over Jimmy Garoppolo (bold!). There are some big movers this week, as well. Doug Martin comes dangerously close to falling outside the Top 50 as he works his way back from a concussion, and Zay Jones jumps back into relevancy after his 12.3-point effort. Here are your rankings ahead of Week 13: Quarterback…
