I really do not know what to say at this point. Though we did not see any major names lost to injury in Week 5, here we are still trying to navigate a waiver wire full of names that were barely considered in deep best ball leagues. Players that could potentially miss Week 6 and […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I am not going to bore you with any flowery intro this week. Simply put, I do not want to waste your time nor insult your fantasy intelligence. You can see, as we all can, that injuries are piling up faster than we can insulate our rosters. Week 4 saw another group of major fantasy […]

Two weeks into the season and there’s already disaster and opportunities around every corner. Whether you’re covering for an injured starter, looking for a season-long replacement or stashing for the future, I’ve got all the information you need. Every week, I’ll be bringing you an article answering two simple questions: who should I stream this […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Many unproven players and free agents in this group of receivers. All of them are long shots to be solid fantasy football contributors. By the time you reach this group, you should have at least 4 receivers, so hopefully, you aren’t counting on these guys too much. That’s not to say there isn’t talent and […]

Congratulations! If you are reading this, you have either reached the playoffs or are married to me and are forced to read this article every single week even though you do not even watch football. Let us focus on you the fantasy football playoff contender and not my wife, the patient and selfless backbone of this humble fantasy analyst. So, you’ve made it and chances are your roster is already nicely filled out and ready to compete. If not though, I will still be here for the next three weeks helping you fill-in holes or blocking your league mates from doing the same. Even Rocky needed Mick after he won the title, James Bond needed Q, and Crash Davis needed Annie Savoy who seriously, let us talk for a second: Annie Savoy? Chef’s Kiss! Anyways, congrats again on making it to the playoffs. Now let’s go!

The Fantasy Football playoffs are fast-approaching. These next few waiver weeks are critical. Some managers have likely lost interest, but that doesn’t mean throw out $1 bids. It’s a good idea to investigate the fab of the other contending teams and adjust accordingly. Guessing another manager’s bids can be a fool’s errand, but you never know what you might learn along the way. If you want a player, pay up to get them. There is no use hoarding a huge fab budget; December is buying time.

Tuesday was the big unveiling of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ new uniforms officially wiping the slate clean before the Tom Brady era, or whatever. I’ll give Tampa credit, these look like actual NFL uniforms as opposed to the knockoff XFL jerseys that they had been rocking for the past few years. I suppose that you could say that these new uniforms have a similar feel to golden era of Tampa Bay football in the late 90’s and early 00’s. The new uniforms are not that original though. They look like a hybrid of the Houston Texans’ and the Atlanta Falcons’ jerseys.
I don’t think that the uniforms are the only similarity that there will be with the Bucs and Falcons this year. In fact, I think the Falcons could have a breakout receiver similar to what the Bucs had with Chris Godwin. And that receiver is none other than Calvin Ridley.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Welcome back to the RazzBlitz Podcast. Zach and I were joined by Mike (Mayer) Maher and Justin Mason of Friends With Fantasy Benefits (and pretty much everywhere else). Along with the who I mentioned above, this league features heavy hitters such as Chris Towers (CBS), Tim Heaney (ESPN, RotoWire), Mo Brewington (Eagleswire on USAToday), Andy Singleton (Fantrax), the boys from The Point After Show, among a few other real experts. This league is 16 teams and the roster features: 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 flex, 1 D/ST, and 1 kicker. Before the Podcast, check out how the boys at Razzball fared…

This is it, I’ve reached the end of my half of the Razzball Division previews with the rest coming from Zach. It’s been quite a journey researching the NFC for the upcoming season. It was great going through all of the players that have disappointed me in the past and still loving them for this year and vice versa. Now, I feel somewhat ready to start my rankings for 2017. Within a week, I will put out my top 200 for the season and I will also put out a top 100 IDP players post as well. We’re reaching the home stretch of the NFL offseason, but we still have a lot to cover over here at Razzball. Without further ado, let’s get to the Starks of the NFC North.

Wide receiver is a tough position to draft outside of the top 15. Within the next 35 players of the preseason top 50, there are 10 guys who are going to outplay their ADP, maybe by a lot. There are also 10 other receivers getting hype, who just don’t live up to it, whether they are a complete bust or just somebody who frustrates you to put into your lineup every week. I’ve been there, I drafted Kelvin Benjamin and Sammy Watkins on the same team last season. This league is a two-keeper league and my keepers were ho-hum going into the draft, and I knew that I had to make a splash. Doug Martin and Brandin Cooks were career hit or miss guys so I went high upside with my first couple of picks…

Folks, it is already June and we are within double digit days from the regular season. When you’re in a dynasty league, the season never ends. I’ve been thinking about the 2017 season for my dynasty team since the day after week 16 ended. I guess that I’m like Bill Belicheck with four fewer titles. I may have won the championship, but I was 3 weeks behind everybody else in the fantasy football offseason. I’m just joking (kind of), that would be a bit obsessive.
Before I get into a few stand out players, I have just a little bit of house keeping. Zach and I started a podcast called Razzblitz and it’s really easy to find. If you subscribe to the Razzcast on iTunes or whatever app you download podcasts on, our podcast will be on that thread. Or, if you just click on the football side of the Razzball blog, our podcast will be up as posts as well. Zach and I want to provide you with as much fantasy knowledge as possible and keep each episode pretty digestible time-wise while doing so. We have two up so far this off season with Episode 3 and beyond coming soon…

Welcome everybody to this week’s edition of “I’m Sorry Guys”, our recurring series here at Razzball where I apologize for not being in the comments for last week’s article and for not doing my normal weekly opening paragraph due to major life events. This week, I’ll talk about how I didn’t write the usual lede because I just got engaged this past weekend, and nobody bothered to tell me that planning a wedding is pretty much a second full-time job. How’d I get engaged, you ask? Well, it was a dreary Saturday in Central Park… *answers call from Jay* I’ve been informed that this is actually another installment of Deep Impact, and also that nobody cares how I got engaged (that’s pretty rude, Jay, but thanks for responding to the questions last week). Let’s jump right into these names, folks.
