The Fantasy Footballers: What to Expect from Jordan Howard in 2020
It feels like Jordan Howard has been in the league for twenty years, yet he’s only 25 years old and on his third NFL. We saw glimpses of his rise to fantasy greatness during his time in Philadelphia, but it fell short due to a shoulder injury. Now with the Miami Dolphins, does Jordan Howard have the opportunity on the worst offensive in the league to rebound to RB1 territory or will vanish into fantasy irrelevance in 2020.
The Fantasy Footballers: What to Expect from Le’Veon Bell in 2020
Are we sleeping on Le’Veon Bell? If you asked me this question 2 years ago, I would have laughed at you. However, after a holdout year and then a “meh” season in 2019 with the Jets, it’s no surprise his ADP is low and falling. Adding Frank Gore to the RB mix doesn’t help this decline but are we doing ourselves a favor looking over Bell or is it a huge disservice to our roster?

The Fantasy Footballers: Report Card on Keenan Allen
If you had Keenan Allen last year, you probably ended the season feeling pretty disappointed. Even though he finished the season as a WR1 in .5 PPR, his up and down season gave you whiplash and left you second-guessing when you should start him. The Report Card on Keenan Allen gives him a grade for the 2019 and his 2020 outlook. Is he worth drafting for your squad this year?

The Fantasy Footballers: 2020 NFL Rookie Landing Spots Round 2
Round 1 of the 2020 draft is in the books and it could not have come at a better time in our sports-starved lives. There were some predictable draft picks and some surprises, with big WR names falling to the SECOND ROUND. In this article, I evaluate the WRs drafted in the second round of the 2020 draft and the fantasy implications for the upcoming season.
The Fantasy Footballers: David Johnson Can Finish as an RB1 in 2020
It may seem controversial to some, perhaps redundant and downright annoying to others, but I take a look at David Johnson as a Houston Texan and his opportunity to have a 2020 redemption year.

About Me
Is it just me, or does that pic beg for the caption… “You look really familiar, but I can’t remember your name, so I’m just going to fake smile”? It does to me, anyway.
Right, about me. I am a wife to my amazing husband, a stepmother of two, adamant sports fanatic, animal lover, small business owner, and writer. I graduated Magna cum Laude with a Bachelor of Journalism from the University of Missouri but ended up starting my own business building websites. Go figure.
Ever since I was a little girl, I have had a love for writing. In fact, my mom still has my very first book I wrote when I was five. It was an epic tale about a rat named Steve who lived in a sewer and ate large mouth bass.
Oh, I love the outdoors as well, by the way. I guess that’s why Steve specifically ate large mouth bass. Love me some fishing. And golf. Basically anything active, unless it’s Sunday morning and I am hungover making food for Football Sunday. Then I’m not leaving my house and five TVs.
I started playing fantasy football in 2014 thanks to some excellent friends who got me hooked instantly. I combined my love of football with my passion for writing and …. well, here we are.
You can find my work on the award-winning Fantasy Footballers and at FantasyPros. I also appear sporadically on podcasts. Every Wednesday and Friday during the regular season I go Live on Twitter (@stepmomlauren) to discuss starts and sits for Thursday, Sunday, and Monday. I post those videos to YouTube so don’t forget subscribe to my YouTube channel and click on the bell for notifications!
