Fantasy advice

 Easy draft strategies: 1: Best Player Available - It's simple enough. Just take the highest guy on your board (or if you dont have a board then the player next up in the queue). 2. Starters first - Fill out your starting lineup (except kicker/defense) first to get the strongest possible starters week to week. 3. Best Player by Position Available - If you need another WR because you already have 4 RBs, a TE and a QB but only 2 WRs then draft the next one up on your board. Loopholes in easy draft strategies: 1. Best Player Available - You may end up with too much depth at a position that you don't need depth at. For instance, if you draft a top 3 TE, you probably don't need to draft a backup because you would only ever bench him if he gets hurt or is on a bye. You also may end up with too much depth at a position. For instance, if you don't draft a top TE maybe it would be a good idea to draft a backup. But you don't need a 3rd. 2. Starters first - If one of your sta

Post-Draft Breakdowns & Grades: Eastern Divisions - 5/21/21

Final addition to this series. Of the 3 series I did, this one actually took the least amount of time but it was also good for me to get a look at each of these classes side by side. I hope you enjoyed it as well. So today might be my last article for awhile. I'm not really sure what content I would be able to produce for the next few months. It is definitely the dry season when it comes to the NFL. We do have June 1 coming up which could mean a few trades like Julio Jones and possibly a few releases, but beyond that we are talking about minicamps which are behind closed doors. Nothing really to report. If there is something that I think is a big enough topic or a flurry of moves happen, then I will surely make something. Otherwise, I think my plan is to make a return in July for fantasy season and training camp. For fantasy, I will be releasing my rankings to the public for the first time since I've been making them by hand the last 2 years. I do multiple iterations and tinker

Monday Minute: 5th Year Option Roundup Edition - 5/17/21

Hey ya'll. Feels like it has been a while because of the Friday article being posted a day early on Thursday.  Quick update for you all. Not sure if I am going to have a Wednesday article going up this week. I've got some early morning business to attend to that isn't really conducive to staying up until 4am working on these articles. Maybe I will surprise myself and get something done, but I am not sure what I would post for my 3rd article this week alongside the Eastern Divisions Post-Draft Breakdown. If you have any suggestions, let me know. As always though, there will be a tweet out @KyleTheCommish just after noontime on MWF if there is an article for your consumption. There wasn't a lot of huge news this week but the 5th Year Option deadline has passed since the last Monday Minute. I want to go ahead and talk about the actions spurred by the deadline and also briefly explain the changes to the 5th year option with the last CBA. There were lots of smaller newswort
