Score Big Every Day

Quick question: who's the league leader in rushing yards and TDs over the past two years? If you read Matthew Freedman's pitch in Matthew Berry’s Ride or Die Candidates article, you know it's Derrick Henry. As a rusher, he's a freight train that's been on track for over a decade. But as a receiver, he's ... well, not that.

But what if he was?

Enter BioNutrient Shave Foam + Face Wash. As a shave foam, it's the Derrick Henry of rushers—quick and thick, but also silky-smooth and dependable to keep things close no matter what front you face (and fine, if we must finish the metaphor ... to help you score). But as a face wash, it's the Christian McCaffrey of receiving backs—agile, powerful and ready to go the distance with a single touch (and yes, yes, to help you score. Sigh). It's two elite talents in one product. It's Derrick McCaffrey!

Anyway, real NFL players like Pat Coogan of the Titans use it, and now you can pick it without paying a top-round premium. Just use code FANTASYBFM20 at checkout to save 20%.

Elite-QB Draft Strategy For 2026

Everyone loves to tout their draft strategies. But recently, the idea of drafting an "Elite QB" has been slipping in the ranks. 

And I get it. 

You could find a serviceable QB in the later rounds. Matthew Stafford, who finished first in TDs and first in yards last season, didn't break the bank in ADP (thanks to those epidural headlines).

But could a QB be worth a third- or fourth-round draft pick if they're elite enough? Jorge Martin breaks down the upside in the Elite QB strategy.

There's a reason to draft a set-it-and-forget-it QB with Josh "Daddy" Allen.
