Continuing our Guy Behind the Guy series, Jonathan Grimes is a free running back worth scooping up with your last roster spot. The Reasons To Like Grimes Grimes went undrafted out of small-school William & Mary, but had a very strong profile. From a production standpoint, he broke out at just 18 years of age and accounted for over 50 percent of his team’s RB production, a 98th…...

I recently wrote a guest post for Rotoworld arguing top receivers need to be capable of posting a 200-target season in 2016.

We know Chip Kelly offenses tend to be up-tempo, and we know he emphasizes player health and sports science.

Charles Kleinheksel recently did a great series looking at the quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends our composite projections are low and high on, relative to early MFL10 ADP. In his overvalued WR piece, he noted we’re awful low on Alshon Jeffery. I’m here to tell you we’re wrong. In fact, he’s a clear WR1, and a fantasy football value at his current ADP of…...
