A list of fantasy football draft projections for the ‘24 season. With the regular season quickly approaching, exactly a week away, fantasy football season is upon us. It’s time to strategize for your draft. Depending on your league settings, you will have to approach your draft with certain guidelines, such as the best positions for each round, and how many players are in each position. There are several different types of fantasy leagues, but I’ve only been involved in two types in the last several years, both Points Per Reception (PPR). You have a traditional league, with a regular lineup, including D/ST and a K, but you also have leagues with a flex player, along with a super flex player, and this is where you have to pay attention early in the draft. So, the question is, where should you draft different Bengals players? Traditional: Burrow – Rounds 4-6. In traditional leagues, most quarterbacks aren’t drafted until the middle rounds, but Burrow is an obvious starter. Chase – Rounds 1-3. The only reason I give multiple rounds for Uno is simply due to the current situation. Unfortunately, do we know if he’s going to play in week 1 or further? No. If he does play, he’s an obvious round 1 choice. Higgins – Rounds 2-3. Higgins signed his franchise tag, and he has reported and played. He will be playing this season, and he will make an impact like normal. Yoshi – Rounds 6-8. You could draft him earlier, but Yoshi is not a big name yet, so you could very easily steal him in a later round. I’m expecting a big year for Yoshi, as he fills the role for Boyd. Burton – Rounds 8+. It’s been obvious that Burton is a very talented receiver, but there are simply too many starters ahead of him. He could be a potential late-round pickup. McPherson – Rounds 9+. McPherson is an elite kicker, and he can put up points. You have to be careful drafting kickers too early or too late. You don’t want to skip over solid players to get a kicker, but you also don’t want to wait too long to get a kicker. D/ST – Rounds 8+. The defense and special teams is similar to the kicker. You can’t draft them too early, but you definitely can’t draft too late. I think the Bengals are a top-10 defense, and I believe they will put up points with turnovers. Brown – Rounds 3-5. You have to remember there are still some teams with one primary back who will get 95% of the carries. Those players will be your round 1-3 players. But Brown is a versatile player and he is a dual threat on the ground and receiving. Moss – Rounds 3-5. I would put him and Brown in the same rounds. I think he and Brown will both capitalize this year and put up points. Gesicki – Rounds 7-9. I don’t think he will be picked early by many people, but if you look at tight ends track records with Burrow, it’s very positive. This is Gesicki’s third team and I believe he will surprise some people in the red zone. He will be a good late-round tight end. FLEX/SUPER FLEX: Not much changes for the Bengals switching to a flex league, simply because the Bengals are a multi-tool team. They use everyone versus some teams that primarily use just a few players. I may change one player. Burrow – Rounds 3-5. I’m keeping Burrow in about the same area, but you can pick him a round or two earlier. Burrow is on a revenge tour and he has weapons, he will put up points.
‘24 Fantasy Football Draft Guidlines
Zimmer’s Interview & the 2024 Vikings Roster
In this compelling episode of Two Old Bloggers, Dave Stefano from Vikings 1st & SKOL provides an in-depth look at Mike Zimmer’s recent, revealing interview with the Star Tribune. The former Minnesota Vikings head coach opens up about his firing, his relationship with players, and his new role as the defensive coordinator for the Dallas Cowboys. Discover the emotional and professional turmoil Zimmer faced, his coaching philosophy, and his views on key team decisions and players like Kirk Cousins and Eric Kendricks. Additionally, the episode offers an extensive analysis of the Minnesota Vikings’ roster cutdown day, examining the quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, offensive linemen, defensive lineup, and special teams. Key focuses include standout performances, potential trades, and future prospects for the team. Finally, the episode ranks the 10 most important Vikings players for the 2024-25 season, reflecting on their potential impact and the challenges ahead. Tune in for a detailed and engaging discussion on one of the most notable NFL coaching stories and a thorough breakdown of the Vikings’ roster strategies and key players for the upcoming season. Zimmer’s Revealing Interview: Unpacking the Anger and Bitterness The spotlight shines brightly on Mike Zimmer this week. An in-depth interview conducted by Mark Craig from the Minnesota Star Tribune has uncovered Zimmer’s deep-seated feelings of anger and frustration stemming from his unceremonious firing in January 2022. That firing also included General Manager Rick Spielman. Their departure marked the end of an era for the Vikings, replacing long-standing pillars with new hope. Zimmer described his departure as being “crushed and angry,” airing grievances over the culture he fostered, the neglected relationships, and a lack of mutual understanding with Spielman. One of the key points raised was Zimmer’s frustration with the team’s direction, particularly with the allocation of resources, which he felt skewed heavily in favor of a quarterback-centric strategy at the expense of his stout defense. Reflecting on his firing, Zimmer painted a stark picture. “Everything’s going to absolute dog doo doo in the building. I taught my kids, that life is a series of choices, and it is, and the decisions you make on those choices have ramifications,” Dave remarked. Zimmer controlled his choices and could have reacted differently. Despite these hardships, Zimmer is back in the game, now serving as the Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator. However, the interview raises questions about his current state of mind and emotional well-being. Why now? What motivated this outpouring? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure—Mike Zimmer still has a lot to say. Comprehensive Vikings Roster Analysis Now let’s turn our attention to the Vikings roster for the upcoming season. With several key changes and strategic decisions, there’s a lot to unpack here. Quarterbacks The quarterback situation is critical for any NFL team, and the Vikings have made some curious choices this year. Sam Darnold stands at the helm as the starting quarterback. Known for his potential and inconsistencies, Darnold will be under heavy scrutiny. Nick Mullens serves as the backup quarterback, bringing a reliable if unspectacular presence. Brett Rypien has been added as the emergency third QB. J.J. McCarthy, unfortunately, is on season-ending IR due to a torn knee meniscus. Coach Kevin O’Connell has emphasized the importance of McCarthy’s development for the future, stating, “We’re focusing on QB development and they didn’t want to focus it on with Hall as much. But they want to focus it on with J. J. McCarthy.” This highlights long-term planning, which could be pivotal for the team’s success down the line. Running Backs The running back room is equally compelling: Aaron Jones headlines the unit and is expected to bring a consistent running threat. Ty Chandler will play a supportive role, providing depth and versatility. C.J. Ham remains the reliable fullback, crucial for both blocking and short-yardage situations. He will also remain the special team’s captain. Interestingly, Myles Gaskin has been designated to handle kick return duties but is currently on the practice squad. “Kwesi Adofo-Mensah was asked who’s going to do kick returns and he said Myles Gaskin is. He’s earned it. He does a lot more of everything. More than Kene [Nwangwu] does,” making him a versatile asset as the season progresses. Wide Receivers Wide receivers are always a focal point for any successful offensive strategy, and the Vikings are no different. Justin Jefferson continues to be the standout performer and the primary offensive weapon. Jordan Addison has shown great promise but is currently recovering from an ankle injury that could sideline him for the initial weeks. That was proceeded by his July DUI processing through the legal system which can result in a suspension. Jalen Nailor, Brandon Powell, Trishton Jackson, and Trent Sherfield round out the group, providing both depth and unique skill sets. Tight Ends The tight end roster is equally important: Josh Oliver, Johnny Munt, and Nick Muse will hold the fort until T.J. Hockenson returns. T.J. Hockenson is expected back mid-season [the New York Jets game in London at the earliest] after healing from an injury. Coach O’Connell remains optimistic, noting, “Hockenson is looking like he’s on the mend, ready to go. We’ll see him in week five.” Offensive Line For the offensive line, staying intact and developing chemistry is crucial: Key Tackles include Brian O’Neill and Christian Darrisaw, with high expectations surrounding their performance. The Interior Line remains an area of concern, with a focus on Garrett Bradbury to solidify the center position. Bradbury has a lot riding on his ability to set pass-protection schemes and elevate the unit’s performance. Defensive Line & Edge On the defensive side, many eyes will be on how the trenches perform: Interior Defensive Line features Harrison Phillips, Jonathan Bullard, Jerry Tillery, Levi Drake Rodriguez, Taki Tiamani, and Jalen Redman. The mix of veteran presence and youthful promise could spell success. For the Edge Rush, Jonathan Greenard, Andrew Van Ginkel, and Dallas Turner are set to bring the heat. Their performance will directly impact the defensive strategy and overall success. Secondary The
Miami Dolphins starting center Aaron Brewer will practice ahead of season opener
Photo by Perry Knotts/Getty Images Mike McDaniel doesn’t commit to Brewer playing against Jacksonville Jaguars. Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel spoke with the South Florida media ahead of the team’s Monday practice in preparation for their week one contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars. During his availability, he was asked for an injury update regarding the squad’s starting center, Aaron Brewer. McDaniel delivered good news by saying that Brewer would practice this week and that his practice participation would include snapping the football — a noteworthy development considering Brewer hadn’t practiced with his Dolphins teammates since suffering a serious laceration on his dominant hand during a joint practice with the Atlanta Falcons last month. Will Brewer start this week against the Jaguars? McDaniel stopped short of guaranteeing that, but did say he felt good about where Brewer was at and assured those listening that he felt “great” about his starting offensive line, including any “contingencies” who may have to play in case of injury. Brewer signed a 3-year, $21 million contract with Miami this offseason — replacing former starter Connor Williams who suffered an ACL injury last season, but signed a contract with the Seattle Seahawks late into free agency this offseason. The Dolphins are surely hoping Brewer can live up to the standard that Williams set with the club, allowing for a seamless transition and continued success for their intricate offensive scheme.
Miami Dolphins name Tua Tagovailoa and seven others as 2024 team captains
Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been a team captain each season since Mike McDaniel became coach of the Miami Dolphins. The Miami Dolphins introduced their 2024 team captains on Monday, including quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, cornerback Jalen Ramsey, wide receiver Tyreek Hill, linebacker David Long Jr., fullback Alec Ingold, left tackle Terron Armstead, and defensive tackles Zach Sieler and Calais Campbell. Reppin’ the C this season pic.twitter.com/CQxiKkjBwt — Miami Dolphins (@MiamiDolphins) September 2, 2024 Tagovailoa, who signed a 4-year contract extension last month, wasn’t named a team captain during Brian Flores’ tenure as head coach but is now entering his third straight season with the ‘C’ on his jersey. He joins Hill and Armstead as three-time team captains in the Mike McDaniel era. Ingold has been a team captain for the last two seasons. Safety Jevon Holland, cornerback Xavien Howard, and defensive tackle Christian Wilkins were team captains in 2022 and 2023. However, under first-year defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver, Sieler and future Hall of Famers Ramsey and Campbell have been chosen as defensive captains. Let us know what you think: What can we expect from Calais Campbell entering his 17th season? Should we be concerned that Jevon Holland isn’t a captain as he enters a contract year? And are there any other top players you believe were left off the list?
Detroit Lions WR Jameson Williams sets lofty goal for 2024 season
Kimberly P. Mitchell / USA TODAY NETWORK Lions WR Jameson Williams has set a pretty darn lofty goal for the 2024 NFL season. On Friday, Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams was back in St. Louis to see his jersey get retired at his high school alma mater, Cardinal Ritter College Prep. ESPN’s Eric Woodyard went down there to see the festivities and talk to Williams that night. Williams shared with Woodyard a personal goal of his for the 2024 NFL season, and it’s a pretty lofty one. “I just want to have the most yards and touchdowns—that would be my personal goals,” Williams said. “Out of the whole NFL, I want to have the most receiving yards and touchdowns. It don’t matter about catches, because I know what I’m gonna do when I get the ball.” That’s a high standard he’s setting for himself considering he’s only had over 50 receiving yards in three career games thus far. For the sake of reference, last year’s receiving leader (Tyreek Hill) finished with 1,799 receiving yards, or an average of 105.8 yards per game in a 17-game season. But there are expectations for a huge jump in production for Williams in Year 3. He lost most of his rookie season as he recovered from a torn ACL suffered in college. He subsequently missed much of training camp in his second year due to a hamstring injury, then missed the first month of the season with a gambling suspension. Unsurprisingly, he looked extremely raw and underdeveloped when he finally saw the field in 2023. But toward the end of the season, he was putting it together. In his final six games of the year (including playoffs), he caught 17 of 25 targets for 238 yards and two touchdowns, with an additional 48 rushing yards. #Lions WR Jameson Williams returns to St. Louis to get his high school jersey No. 3 retired at his alma mater, Cardinal Ritter College Prep — which is the lone Black Catholic co-ed HS in the country. “An accomplishment I have is checked off, but it’s nowhere near the finish.” pic.twitter.com/8e6Yy9xjR8 — Eric Woodyard (@E_Woodyard) August 30, 2024 His development took another step this offseason, with him looking like a completely reborn player in training camp. “This is the most confident that I’ve seen him since he’s been here,” coach Dan Campbell said after one week of camp. “He came in with the right mindset when we started this offseason and that has not waned one bit. He’s in a good place and he’s taken the coaching, he’s trying to work on it, he’s improving and he’s making plays, so we like where he’s at mentally and emotionally.” That improvement continued through the summer, as the Lions were apparently confident enough in Williams’ ability to not even play him in the preseason. That’s because it became clear that Williams had shown enough growth in his game and made it through his first entire training camp of his career. “I think he’s attacking the game the way he should attack it now, like a professional. His route running has improved, catching the ball has improved,” assistant general manager Ray Agnew said last week. “He’s an exciting kid to watch play, and I’m expecting big things out of him this year.” Does that mean Williams is in for a 1,500-yard season? That certainly seems unlikely, but you’ve got to admire the confidence and aspirations of the 23-year-old receiver.
Browns Myles Garrett on pace to break record in 2024
Bob Donnan-USA TODAY Sports Reggie White will still be the quickest but not youngest to 100 sacks Nothing is certain in the NFL. Besides Patrick Mahomes’ dominance, figuring out how a season will go is always very difficult. If it wasn’t, betting lines would be easy wins for fans. The 2024 NFL season is all about building on last year for the Cleveland Browns. Making the playoffs with five different quarterbacks in the best division in the history of the league was impressive but, in the end, meaningless without at least a trip to the AFC Championship game. With Michael Jordan comparisons being appropriate, Mahomes changes Super Bowl expectations for AFC teams. Browns DE Myles Garrett is near the top of the list of players that will decide Cleveland’s season and, hopefully, playoff outcomes. If anyone, along with his stellar teammates, can make Mahomes’ life difficult it is Garrett. This season also puts the record for the youngest player to reach 100 sacks in the sights of Cleveland’s top draft pick in 2017. Now 28 years old and not turning 29 until December, Garrett sits at 88.5 sacks for his career. Needing just 11.5 more, the Browns stud defender hasn’t had less than 11 since 2019 when he had 10 playing in only 10 games due to suspension. The only other time in his seven-year career that Garrett didn’t have at least 12 sacks was as a rookie in 2017 when he played in just 11 games. One record that seems likely to stand the test of time is Reggie White reaching 100 sacks the fastest, in just 96 games. If Garrett reaches 100 sacks in the first 14 games of the season, assuming that TJ Watt will reach the mark (3.5 sacks short) earlier in the year, they will both join the top five fastest to 100. Are you surprised that Garrett is in a position to be the youngest ever to reach 100 sacks? What are your thoughts on the start of the former #1 overall pick’s career?

Baltimore Ravens’ roster comparison: 2023 vs. 2024 offense
Baltimore Ravens’ roster comparison: 2023 vs. 2024 offense glenn erby The Baltimore Ravens unveiled their 53-man roster for the 2024 NFL regular season. Baltimore has 25 players on offense, 25 on defense, and three specialists to round out a juggernaut of a roster on both sides of the football. GM Eric DeCosta made some tough decisions on offense, including waiving sixth-round pick Devin Leary and fan favorite Dayton Wade. After a 17-10 loss to the Chiefs in the AFC title game, Baltimore signed a future Hall of Fame running back Derrick Henry and retooled the offensive line, adding three new starters. With the team preparing for the NFL opening kickoff matchup against the Chiefs, we’re comparing the Ravens’ 2023 roster to the updated version in 2024.

Drake London Has Warning For Opposing Defenses Heading Into 2024
The Atlanta Falcons are hoping to look a lot different on offense this year with a new head coach, new quarterback and new coordinator in 2024. The Falcons have always had some intriguing weapons between Kyle Pitts, Drake London and an exciting young running back in Bijan Robinson. But now London … ATLANTA, GEORGIA – DECEMBER 10: Drake London #5 of the Atlanta Falcons runs the ball during the first half against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on December 10, 2023 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Alex Slitz/Getty Images) Alex Slitz/Getty Images The Atlanta Falcons are hoping to look a lot different on offense this year with a new head coach, new quarterback and new coordinator in 2024. The Falcons have always had some intriguing weapons between Kyle Pitts, Drake London and an exciting young running back in Bijan Robinson. But now London says that opposing teams are going to have to be prepared for a track meet when they come to Mercedes-Benz Stadium. “It’s just the type of play style we’re trying to play,” London explained. “It’s really, really fast. You got to be in condition. I think that speed is a killer in this game. If you have it, you can win a lot of things.” London also said they he expects big things out of himself in Year 3 after recording 900 yards last season. “I want to go out there and make a stand for myself,” the former No. 8 pick said. “I know what I can do. I know what type of player I am.” The ATL wideout has definitely flashed some impressive ability over his first couple seasons. Now it’s just a matter of consistently being a threat — especially in the redzone. If Kirk Cousins is able to fully recover from his Achilles tear the Falcons should be a lot better this fall, but that’s a decent-sized question mark.

The Bengals have one of the NFL’s easiest schedules vs. QBs
Photo by Ian Johnson/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The good thing about Joe Burrow being on the team is the Bengals don’t have to play against him. While an NFL team doesn’t need a franchise quarterback to win a Super Bowl, having one definitely makes it easier. The last five quarterbacks to win the whole thing were Patrick Mahomes, Tom Brady, and Matthew Stafford. While it isn’t impossible to win without a star behind center, it’s improbable. No position has more control over the game than a quarterback. The Athletic’s Mike Sando recently ranked each team’s strength of schedule based on the quarterbacks they play by organizing all the signal callers into tiers. According to Sando’s ranking, the Cincinnati Bengals have the fourth-easiest schedule in the NFL in 2024. “Burrow’s injury last season delivered a fourth-place schedule (hello, Jacoby Brissett and Will Levis),” Sando wrote. “That last-place divisional finished also helped Cincy draft Carolina and Bryce Young for its 17th opponent. The Bengals play seven games against Tier 4 quarterbacks, tied with the Chargers, Jaguars, Bears and Falcons for most in the NFL.” The Bengals face only one Tier 1 quarterback, and that, of course, is Patrick Mahomes. Sando considers Lamar Jackson, Justin Herbert, Dak Prescott and Jalen Hurts to be Tier 2. Tier 3 includes Deshaun Watson and Russell Wilson, and Tier 4 is all the other quarterbacks, which includes Daniel Jones, Gardner Minshew, Brissett, Young, Levis, and the rookie quarterbacks they face (Bo NIx and Jayden Daniels). The Bengals defense has a rebuilt secondary. They brought in Geno Stone and brought back Vonn Bell to help lead the safety room, and they still have Jordan Battle in the position as well. Dax Hill’s move to corner seems to have worked fairly well, at least through the preseason (which doesn’t count), and Josh Newton needs a little development but definitely has talent. The rebuilt secondary, coupled with some added pass-rushing juice supplied by Sheldon Rankins, should hopefully put Lou Anarumo’s defense in a good position to help the offense reach a Super Bowl. Playing against only one Tier 1 quarterback, in Sando’s opinion, will help. And before you ask, of course, Joe Burrow was Tier 1. He, Mahomes, and Buffalo’s Josh Allen are the three top quarterbacks in the league. Not playing against Burrow helps, too!
Colts round out remainder of practice squad with 4 signings
Photo by Justin Casterline/Getty Images The Colts have completed their 16-player practice squad with four new signings. Two of them being familiar faces. The Indianapolis Colts filled out the remainder of their practice squad with the following signings to their 16-man taxi team: We have signed DT McTelvin Agim, DE Titus Leo, TE Sean McKeon and G Atonio Mafi to the practice squad. — Indianapolis Colts (@Colts) August 29, 2024 DT McTelvin Agim: Formerly a 2020 3rd round pick of the Denver Broncos, Agim spent time on the Colts practice squad from 2022-23. The 6’3,” 300 pound defensive tackle has appeared in 18 career games, recording 14 tackles (4 solo), 1.5 sacks and 2 passes defensed. DE Titus Leo: Originally a 2023 6th round pick of the Colts, the 6’3,” 245 pound edge rusher out of Wagner has not yet appeared in an NFL game. He missed some time in training camp and preseason with an injury but recorded 3 tackles during Indy’s preseason opener. TE Sean McKeon: A 6’5,” 255 pound undrafted tight end out of Michigan, who previously spent time with the Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions organizations. He’s appeared in 45 career games (3 starts)—all with the Cowboys, recording 6 receptions for 38 receiving yards (6.3 ypr. avg.) and a touchdown reception during his first 4 seasons. OG Atonio Mafi: Having been a 2023 5th round pick of the New England Patriots, the 6’3,” 329 pound offensive guard appeared in 17 games (5 starts) last year. He was 2nd-Team All-Pac 12 with UCLA. Of course, the backend of the Colts practice squad can be fluid, so it wouldn’t be surprising if there’s a little more shuffling in the coming days—as other teams maneuver their rosters.
