The weather is downright ugly this week to start the Wyndham Championship, but not in a way that we can use to our advantage. Tropical Storm Debby is set to dump over three inches of rain in the area Thursday, which would mean a Friday start at best this week. When you consider that amount of rain plus overnight rain, this event might not start until Friday or Saturday depending on how well the course drains.

(-132, FanDuel Sportsbook) We turn to one of the hottest offenses in Major League Baseball in the Baltimore Orioles. Over the last two weeks, the Orioles rank eighth in AVG, eighth in SLG, ninth in ISO, seventh in wOBA and sixth in wRC+. While not elite, top-of-the-league numbers, they are top 10 in every statistical category, which bodes well for their chances against a subpar right-handed starting pitcher in Bowden Francis. Want some even better news? Francis did pitch over the weekend, facing two batters, but his last start came nine days ago against these very same Orioles. In that start, Francis surrendered six hits for three runs, striking out just two, while generating just four whiffs on 40 swings.

Let’s nip this trend of removing kickers from your fantasy football league’s roster in the bud. Right now. Fantasy football has been close to my heart since I was roughly 10 years old. Let me try to analogize kickers with something else close to my heart: Italian food.

5 Kickers to Target Late in Drafts (2024 Fantasy Football)

I don't love starting my team with two RBs, but I'm more open to it this season, particularly in a 0.5 PPR league. Let me tell you something about RBs: They are just as safe, if not safer than WRs! If we analyze PPR average draft position data from FantasyPros over the last four seasons, we'll see that RBs who were Top 12 in ADP have actually been a little bit more reliable than WRs who were Top 12 in ADP. The idea that WRs are much safer than RBs is overblown and it's a borderline myth, so if the board falls in such a way that makes you end up with an RB/RB start, take that RB and don't look back!

The Buffalo Bills will have a different-looking wide receiver room entering the 2024 season. A lot of it has to do with trading away Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans and drafting rookie Keon Coleman from the Florida State Seminoles. Coleman was a second-round selection (33rd overall pick) in the 2024 NFL Draft.
