Luck's 2014 is what people assumed would be a baseline going forward. 600+ attempts, 4500 yards, and 40 TDs. That's not all that far off from his 16 game pace this year. In 2014, the breakdown of catches by position was: RB: 94 TE: 98 WR: 217 Fleener and Allen are both free agents. Bradshaw...

Holding for now. Seems like he should have a strong finish in PPR, as he's a good pass catching back. Likely to be playing from behind + Trestman has no problem throwing to the RB + Foster did well in the passing game with Schaub. Even if he's terrible running the ball, he should catch a bunch...

12 team PPR. Moncrief/Ladarius for J.Brown/JStew

Thought it would be interesting to keep a running value on the 2015 rookies for dynasty purposes. Basically a re-do of 2015 rookie drafts after each week to keep current value on players who may not have played a significant number of games yet. These are subjective, and based on 12 team PPR...

Not going to mention the 'T' word. There are only two questions. 1. Why would Seattle give up on him? More than anything, it's about the contract. If Michael had 4 years left on a rookie deal, he's probably still there. He probably wouldn't see the field this year, and it makes much more sense...

They probably would keep 4. But they have two options: 1. Trade Michael/Turbin for a likely middle-late round pick and keep Rawls or Smith as the #4 RB. 2. Cut both Rawls and Smith and get nothing in return. GMs love Option 1.

Kyle Shanahan has never had a QB as good as Matt Ryan. He's never had as good a top 2 as Julio and Roddy. And Matt Ryan has thrown the ball an average of 630 times over the past three seasons. Even more in the last two, because the defense hasn't been able to stop anyone. He's a pretty good bet...

Thing that really stuck out about the Packers: Randall Cobb mentioned that the Packers ran 33 plays in the first quarter. Cobb was on the field for 33 of them, Nelson was on the field for 32 of them, and Davante Adams was on the field for 33 of them. Cobb was targeted once, Nelson twice, and...

12 team Superflex PPR start-up. Here's what the rookie draft would have looked like: 1.01 - Todd Gurley 1.02 - Melvin Gordon 1.03 - Amari Cooper 1.04 - Kevin White 1.05 - Ameer Abdullah 1.06 - Marcus Mariota 1.07 - T.J. Yeldon 1.08 - Nelson Agholor 1.09 - DeVante Parker 1.10 - Breshad...

A weird anomaly this weekend, but for those who don't know, Bears/Vikings will be on CBS and not FOX. FOX agreed to give up the game.

While this is true, the guy largely responsible for giving opposing defenses the 3rd most points just got benched.

Anybody that's been holding in dynasty finally saw a glimpse of what they hoped for. You don't stash guys like CJ with the hopes of dealing them for a 3rd round pick. Nobody that held is giving him up for less than a 2nd at this moment. ETA: CJ Anderson is the 5th RB in Denver Broncos history...

The Eagles are 13-4 in Foles' last 17 starts. The injury may be a blessing in disguise. He has time to reflect on why his mentality regarding not committing turnovers changed. You can't just let a guy who wins that much go.

Jordan Cameron is a name I'd keep an eye on. He's got an unusually low catch rate and TD/target percentage for a TE. Both things he's done better in the past and should improve. Add the concussion and he's probably a good target for production in the critical weeks if you have the bench space.

He did as much as any RB possibly could have with those carries. Ran hard, ran after contact, made something when there was nothing. Great agility to get in on the first TD. Great vision on the 2nd. It was an impressive performance.
