Last week I took a huge gamble and stacked Drew Lock and Noah Fant in one of my leagues-- and it paid off nicely. Lock has come out of the gate strong, and certainly gives hope to Broncos' fans heading into 2020...

I know everyone is aware of this, but I think it's amazing how much Kirk Cousins turned his season around since being called out by WR Adam Thielen in Week 4. Since being run down by his wideout, Cousins has tossed 20 TDs to just two interceptions. That's amazing...

I have seen the future of professional football, and it’s Lamar Jackson. Is this really all that of an outrageous statement? After watching Jackson over the past few weeks, it’s obvious that he’ll be the model quarterback for future generations.

Let's not pretend like there's anything else to talk about today other than the game-ending fracas between the Steelers and Browns on Thursday Night Football. Here's my summary: Myles Garrett is an animal, Mason Rudolph and Larry Ogunjobi are punks, Mike Tomlin is an idiot, and Maurice Pouncey is a hero.

If not for his injury designation (as of Saturday afternoon), Lamar Jackson would be the top QB play for the week; but it's a testament to him that even with his score being dinged due to his "questionable" designation that he's in the Top 10.

I don't know about you, but it seems to me that people are not giving rookie Josh Jacobs the credit he deserves. Fantasy owners probably tend to overlook Jacobs because he's not much of a receiving threat out of the backfield, but he's a good-looking runner.

There are only two receivers averaging over 100 yards per game this season, and they're both sitting atop this week's rankings: Chris Godwin and Michael Thomas.

A new type of ranking system for a new breed of fantasy football players … the New Age Rankings. These rankings are strictly performance based, so players who have not played in at least one game (and produced stats) are not listed here.

In case it hasn't been painfully obvious, the Rams' offense isn't what it used to be; but the lone bright spot has been WR Cooper Kupp. Kupp has been outstanding, and going up against the third-worst defense against opposing WRs is a recipe for success... Don't let the Ravens historic defensive reputation throw you off, they've been shaky against the pass this year.

The Rams' offense isn't anywhere as intimidating as it was at this point last season, but one person who is definitely balling is Cooper Kupp. Kupp has been outstanding thus far, and is clearly the apple of Jared Goff's eye.

Yes, several pundits had Chris Godwin as a solid WR2 heading into the season, but how many had him as a WR1... on his own team? Godwin has actually out-produced perennial WR stud Mike Evans, and if anyone tells you they had predicted that being the case in 2019, immediately consider that person a liar...

Lamar Jackson leads the way in the New Age Rankings list at the quarterback position.

Andy Dalton has had a nice start to the season, and considering that many owners left him for dead following the news of A.J. Green's injury, he has provided tremendous R.O.I...

John Georgopoulos gives us his new type of ranking system for a new breed of fantasy football players … the New Age Rankings.

I had Lamar Jackson starting to make a meaningful impact in 2020, not this season – yet he has had two great games to open the season, and you can just see his confidence grow as a passer. Ditto Josh Allen and to a lesser extent Dak Prescott.

Since so many of you found my Consistency Rankings so useful-- and were nice enough to subscribe to my social media outlets-- I was inspired to come up with some projections for your drafts. These projections are one part Fantasy Sharks analysis, one part Consistency Rankings, and one part geeky math...

One of the most difficult tasks in head-to-head fantasy leagues is trying to determine who the “hot” and “cold” players will be in any given week. You can’t use historical or seasonal averages because, well … by their very definition, ...

I looked at wide receivers (since 2007) who had amassed at least 170 targets in a season and had a reception percentage of at least 55 percent — then I examined how they fared the following season. The results were good, if not outstanding.

Every year, readers will point out how this season will be different, that their favorite runner will buck the odds … and every season, the math holds up. Don’t be unnecessarily reckless; if you’re at the top of your draft, convince some other suckers to grab Saquon Barkley or Christian McCaffrey.

When should you draft different positions? Should Saquon Barkley be taken ahead of Michael Thomas? Should Aaron Donald be grabbed ahead of George Kittle? Heck, where should any position be drafted as compared to any other position?

John concludes the regular season with his Week 17 NAR Rankings.

I'm liking Andrew Luck this week in a must-win situation against the Giants... Jared Goff needs to regain some of his swagger, and quick; the Arizona defense may allow him that opportunity.

Drew Brees has had consecutive sub-par outings, causing him to slide a bit. With just two games to go, can Tom Brady put together a strong kick to end up in the Top 12?

While Dalvin Cook hasn't been running the ball all that well since his return from injury, he's been a decent RB2/Flex play over the last three games. The Vikings' RB has average 88 scrimmage yards, five catches and 0.67 TDs per game in that span, good for an average 18.2 PPG...

Matt Ryan has been having a really solid season thus far without as much hype as guys like Drew Brees and Patrick Mahomes, but he's one of three QBs with 4,000+ yards so far (along with Mahomes and Roethlisberger) and his 28 TDs are tied for sixth in the league.

Oakland has given up the greatest number of fantasy points to opposing tight ends, so this might be one of those weeks where Ben Roethlisberger looks for Vance McDonald a bit more than usual.

Christian McCaffrey has hauled in 80 catches in 12 games this season, which puts him on a pace to finish 107 catches-- which would surpass Matt Forte's RB record of 102.

Andrew Luck kept his impressive streak of tossing at least three TDs in a game going last week. The streak now stands at eight games, during which Luck has tallied 27 TDs against just eight INTs...

Go-go JuJu! JuJu Smith-Schuster moves into the Top 10 this week, and in doing so forms the second WR pair (with Antonio Brown) to be atop the rankings-- joining the Adam Thielen-Stefon Diggs combination.

I've always liked Tevin Coleman's skills, and he's certainly played adequately since running mate Devonta Freeman-- but I'm a bit disappointed that he hasn't taken his production to the next level.
