Week 6 gave us plenty to talk about, with some familiar faces stepping up, a few unexpected names getting involved, and some big target totals that didn’t exactly translate into big fantasy performances. Green Bay’s receiving corps is getting interesting, Kansas City is still trying to make things work with a depleted group, and a

Four teams are on bye this week, which means Josh Allen and a whole lot of other fantasy-relevant players are taking the week off right when we need them most. Because apparently, managing injuries and trying to figure out which running back might actually get a meaningful workload wasn't enough. There are still some worthwhile

Week 1 is in the books, which means we have exactly one week's worth of data to confidently overreact to. Perfect. The 2026 opening week gave us some truly ridiculous numbers: 86 plays in New Orleans, eight touchdowns in Chicago, Derrick Henry apparently refusing to acknowledge that Father Time exists, and enough RB timeshare discourse

Welcome to a new series of articles here at Optimus Fantasy: ADP Trends! Every other week, I'll take a look at some notable changes in average draft position (ADP) and give my input on what this means for drafts. Let's get right into it! Fantasy Football ADP Trends - Omarion Not Where He's Post To

Let's cut to the chase. You're here because you want to win your league. What better place to do it than in the RBs and TEs write-up of the Senior Bowl? That's not entirely preposterous to think, as the past few Senior Bowls have given us Brian Robinson and Trey McBride in 2022, Chase Brown and

One way for us to get ahead in dynasty leagues and pick up on some value is to "zoom out" and look at where teams are headed in 2026. What teams could see significant changes, directionally, personnel, or otherwise? Today, we'll dive into the AFC South division and what the future might hold for each

For the dynasty folks out there, next year's rookies are probably already on your mind. For those of us who are not as "dynasty-brained" (like myself), we take late-round rookie flyers in redraft leagues, hoping one of them pops. We are now 11 full weeks into the 2025 season, and our team wanted to suss
