Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin should make for a solid fantasy tight end given the Cowboys fast-paced, powerful offense. But, he’ll need to be on the field to make an impact. Some Cowboys beat writers have voiced concern about Jarwin’s blocking ability, which could keep him off the field somewhat more often than expected. With Jason Witten gone and not much else on the

Dallas Cowboys rookie wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is set to start in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams. Lamb of course got no preseason games and is coming from the Big-12, where defenses essentially don’t exist, so he could have a bit of a bigger learning curve than some are expecting. Still, with Mike McCarthy running three-wide sets as his base offense, Lamb will

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup makes for a solid WR3 option in Week 1 fantasy lineups. Like usual, Gallup carries nice upside and a formidable floor in a fast-paced Dallas offense. Coach Mike McCarthy says Gallup is, “a number one wide receiver in [his] view.” Incoming rookie CeeDee Lamb could eat into some of Gallup’s targets this season, but he might also open things

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is missing practices or practicing with a limited designation leading up to Week 1. Cooper’s limited practices are for “preventative measures” according to Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, but it’s of course something to keep an eye on with Week 1 approaching. For now, Cooper is expected to be on the field for the first game of the season, but

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is, as usual, a great option for Week 1 fantasy lineups. Elliott dealt with a positive COVID-19 test along with other drama earlier in the offseason, but he is reportedly fine now and ready to go as one of the few running backs left in the league that rarely leaves the field. “Zeke” is the only running back in

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is being ranked as the third best quarterback option for Week 1 lineups. He does have one of the widest ranges in predictions though, as many writers have him at or near number three, but some have him ranked as low as 16. With a new weapon in rookie wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, Prescott could even improve on the numbers

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones will play a huge role in 2020 as the focal point of the Packers offense. Jones enjoyed a career season in 2019, posting 1,558 all-purpose yards with 49 receptions and 19 total touchdowns. While his touchdown totals may regress a smidge this season, Jones still has averaged 5.0 yards per carry over 450 touches in the backfield through

Chicago Bears quarterback Nick Foles will find out over the weekend whether he will be named starter for Week 1 against the Lions. Foles was acquired in the offseason from the Jaguars and the veteran has been competing with incumbent starter Mitch Trubisky for the lead job. Foles’ career has been a rollercoaster, from exploding onto the scene in Chip Kelly’s offense in 2013, to

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky should find out in the coming days whether he will be leading the offense in Week 1 against the Lions. Trubisky has been in a close competition for the starting job with veteran Nick Foles in a race that has been categorized as “very close”. Trubisky’s arrow was pointing up heading into last season but came out of the gate

Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen‘s value will be on the rise heading into fantasy draft’s this weekend as it looks increasingly possible starter David Montgomery misses Week 1 with a groin injury. It was a wildly disappointing season for the diminutive playmaker in 2019 after racking 1,169 all-purpose yards in 2018. Cohen’s receptions actually increased last season with a career-high 79 but his yards

Pittsburgh Steelers offensive guard David DeCastro missed another practice on Friday and has barely practiced in training camp with a lower-body issue, but head coach Mike Tomlin is hopeful that DeCastro will be ready for the Monday night game in Week 1. DeCastro has missed just two regular season games in nine years in the league, so there seems to be a good chance he’ll

Los Angeles Rams kicker Sam Sloman is expected to win the kicking job with Greg Zuerlein no longer around, according to sources informed of the situation. Sloman was a seventh-round pick out of Miami (Ohio) — head coach Sean McVay’s alma mater. He beat out Lirim Hajrullahu and Austin MacGinnis in training camp and the two losers of the competition were waived. The 5-foot-8, 205-pounder

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said the team has made an offer to defensive end Jadeveon Clowney. The Titans, Saints and Seahawks are the three teams known to be aggressively pursuing the Pro Bowl pass-rusher with the start of the regular season next week. The 27-year-old can be a game-wrecker in opposing backfields when he’s healthy, but he’ll have to settle for a one-year

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins may not be drafted as a QB1 in upcoming drafts, but the Vikings are banking on him having an elite season. Cousins’ numbers dipped last season, going from 30 touchdowns in 2018 to 26 last season, and a passing regression from 4,298 yards to 3,603. Cousins can go on stretches where he easily can be considered a top-12 play among

Chicago Bears tight end Jimmy Graham may not be on the fantasy radar heading into drafts but could play a significant role Week 1 against the Lions. Graham has enjoyed a fantastic camp and is looking to prove that he still has something left in the tank. The veteran caught only 38 passes last season for 447 yards and three touchdowns for the Green Bay

Chicago Bears wide receiver Anthony Miller will have a lot on the line as he prepares to take the field in 2020. Last season was supposed to be his breakout campaign; and then racked up only four catches for 28 yards in four September games. Miller put together a strong five-game stretch during the season where he averaged 86.2 receiving yards per game but more

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson (ankle) is back on the practice field and appears to be ready to roll against the Lions in Week 1. Robinson enjoyed a fantastic season in 2019, posting six receptions or more in 11 games and racked up 70+ receiving yards nine times. The Bears offense is looking to bounce back from an abysmal season and Robinson was the

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph enters his 10th NFL season with 47 career touchdowns, including six last season. The veteran has been a steady presence throughout his Vikings tenure but caught only 39 passes for 367 yards last season. It was a down season after averaging 68 receptions with 668.6 yards and just over six touchdowns the previous three seasons. Rudolph currently sits at

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Bisi Johnson continues to carve out a role for himself heading into the 2020 season. The Vikings drafted Justin Jefferson and signed Tajai Sharpe in the offseason but it has been Johnson that has impressed in camp. The former 7th round pick may not be able to replace the breakaway speed of traded teammate Stefon Diggs, but Johnson has sure hands

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen should be in line for plenty of targets in 2020. The Vikings traded deep-threat Stefon Diggs in the offseason and then drafted Justin Jefferson early in the draft to replace him. While Jefferson learns the ropes of the NFL game, expect quarterback Kirk Cousins to lean on Thielen heavily early on in the season. The 30-year-old battled injuries last
