What NFL team once played home games at JFK Stadium, Franklin Field, Baker Bowl and Connie Mack Stadium? answer »

Factoid: Ravens Defense

I’m not a big fan of the Baltimore defense. It led the league in sacks and takeaways last year, but it lost guys and has a new coordinator. As we saw with the Eagles last year, defenses can decline in a hurry.  more »

Factoid: Quentin Johnston

Saw a story yesterday that the Chargers remain high on last year's first-round wideout Quentin Johnston. He struggled as a rookie, of course, and a lot changed in the offseason that could help -- or hurt -- his chances. What will his second season bring?   more »

Factoid: George Kittle

It can be hard to remember who finished the previous season strong and who didn't - unless they were on your fantasy team, of course. I took a quick look back at how the 2023 season shook out for fantasy's top names as we came down the home stretch and singled out the guys who really wheezed to the finish line.   more »

Around the NFL: Jared Goff

The Lions signed Jared Goff to a huge new contract extension this week. Even Detroit couldn't have imagined it would work out this well for them when they took his previous contract off the Rams' hands in the Matthew Stafford deal. But Goff has been a lot better than anyone anticipated.   more »

Factoid: CeeDee Lamb

I’m going with CeeDee Lamb has the top receiver on my board, and the decision making was easier than I expected. There are a bunch of elite-type receivers, but Lamb was way better than all of them for most of last season.   more »

Andy Richardson: Notes on the NFL schedule

The NFL schedule was released last night, which is always fun. And lately frustrating, as the schedule-makers deliver choices which kind of mess with a lot of big fantasy leagues. I know, they don't have to care about us. Rest assured, they don't.   more »

Marvin Harrison was the fourth pick of the draft. Who is the only other active wide receiver who was a top-4 pick overall in the draft? answer »

Factoid: Garrett Wilson

I am ready to double down on Garrett Wilson. He was supposed to be the breakout receiver last year, and I think all of that reasoning still applies. Pair him with an adequate quarterback, and I think he’ll be just fine.  more »

This week's flyer I took in my dynasty league is Ravens' running back Rasheen Ali (pictured). The fifth-rounder out of Marshall tore his bicep at the Senior Bowl, a factor in him falling to Day 3 of the draft. There's a lot to like, though, both player and landing spot.   more »

This other quarterback was a third-round pick; he did his most notable work with a different franchise, in one season throwing a team-record 29 touchdown passes. answer »

Around the NFL: Jahmyr Gibbs

After poking and adjusting the numbers, I decided to make Jahmyr Gibbs the No. 4 running back on my board (for PPR scoring, anyway). I think he’s the safest choice. And I think he’s looking a little safer today after comments made by the team’s GM, Brad Holmes.  more »
