In the NFL, performance can drastically change on a weekly basis due to injuries, schematics, and even weather.

Given the razor-thin margins between winning and losing in fantasy, I sought a more up-to-date view of matchup analysis. A…

#NAPKIN25 Week 10 Results So much for Brock Bowers…This fine tenth week featured a trifecta of running back performances from Jonathan Taylor, De’Von Achane, and erstwhile TreVeyon Henderson.

#NAPKIN25 Week 4 Results Week 4 of The Napkin was less a slate of football games and more a barrage of deep-ball detonations.

In redraft fantasy football, it is often difficult to know who to draft and when. It’s also tough to know who to trade for and what to give up. By this time, everyone should have finished their drafts, but every redraft team has areas they can improve. I’m going to try to help with this…

Most fantasy owners focus on early-round rookies, but real value often comes from late-round rookie sleepers with breakout potential.
