This List Made Me Mad

Let's talk it out...

There’s nothing like a polarizing top-10 list when it comes to rage bait.

ESPN has been surveying league executives/coaches/scouts to rank the top-10 players at every position, and yesterday they dropped their WR list.

And let’s just say … mission accomplished. It got the people riled up, myself included.

Sure, no complaints from me at the top with Ja’Marr Chase (1) and Justin Jefferson (2), but then things take a sharp turn.

Tyreek Hill at No. 3? Someone even put him at No. 2 in their personal ranks. Are we being serious? We are ranking the 31-year-old who didn’t eclipse 1,000 yards last year over CeeDee Lamb and A.J. Brown??!

Some other perplexing nuggets from the survey:

  • Someone didn’t even rank AJB in their top 10. Is he being punished for reading a book on the sideline? The dude has been over 2.5 yards per route run every year of his career.

  • Re: Garrett Wilson - “Some scouts wonder what's holding him back.” Um, how about two words … Zach Wilson? How about two more … Nathaniel Hackett? Are we done wondering?

  • The biggest snub? Puka Nacua. He got an Honorable Mention, but that is disrespectful to a no-brainer top-10 WR in the league.

  • And last but not least, someone gave Efton Chism a vote? WTF!? I’m kidding, just want to make sure you are paying attention.

Let us know who you got in your top 10 …

It’s Time To Turn Up The Heat

Hot takes (or bold predictions, choose your semantics) are arguably the most fun part of the NFL offseason … outside of your actual draft, of course.

Staking a claim that goes against the grain, expressing conviction in your confidence in a player’s rise (or fall) is a way to fast-track the success (or failure) of your fantasy season.

So, why limit bold predictions to just one part of the offseason content cycle? Instead, Ian Hartitz has put together a list of bold predictions for 2025 … that remains incomplete.

That’s right, Ian will be ADDING more bold predictions each and every week until kickoff, and who knows, they may just get spicier as we progress through the summer.

Kicking us off are his seven bold predictions for 2025, and if you aren’t rushing to the draft room to slam this QB after reading it, you’re doing it all wrong …

NFL Training Camps Are Officially Underway

And now, the fun begins. Prepare to get inundated with highlight videos and coachspeak for the next few weeks, as yesterday—with the Los Angeles Chargers veterans reporting for camp—NFL Training Camps have officially begun.

This is a pivotal time in the fantasy football calendar as we’re forced to use our judgment to separate the noise from the actionable nuggets that can make a difference for us on draft day.

To help guide you through, Matthew Freedman has assembled a team-by-team guide to highlight the most important storylines that we, as fantasy football players, should be paying attention to, including:

  • The development of second-year WR Marvin Harrison Jr.

  • The chemistry between Bryce Young and rookie WR Tetairoa McMillan.

  • How will the RB room in Dallas shake out?

One storyline for all 32 teams. It’s go time. ⤵️
