Tyler Moore - Fantasy Sports Writer: The Wagner Wire Quarterbacks and their home road splits; Plus, how they play in crucial games. Many people question if home road splits are an actual viable stat to keep in mind for fantasy football. These are professional quarterbacks we are talking about after all. Those people I would like you to meet Mr. Big Ben Roethlisberger (maybe you have heard of him?), who is the poster boy for this stat. Since 2014 Big Ben has averaged 30.1 points per game at home compared to just 17.12 points on the road. If put those numbers at a season long pace Ben at home would have 482 points, but on the road, he would have 274 points.

The Impact of Strength of Schedule For Fantasy Football – The Difference Between DFS and Season Long
Tyler Moore - Fantasy Sports Contributor: The Wagner Wire Fantasy Impact: Strength of Schedule How much should you consider strength of schedule when you are drafting players for your fantasy team? If you look back just to last year the Atlanta Falcons were tied for having the hardest strength of schedule, but that didn’t stop anybody from drafting Julio Jones or Devonta Freeman. Julio Jones was actually one of the best foundations fantasy football teams could have last year. Julio came in at a staggering 20.1 percent of teams that made it all the way to their championship weekend. Pro Football Focus has the New York Giants as the top secondary for the 2017 season, but Dez Bryant, who faces the Giants

The Wagner Wire: Fantasy Football Sleepers!
Craig DeLauder - Fantasy Sports Contributor: The Wagner Wire Hello all you fantasy fanatics! I am coming to you today with my assessment on some players that could be called "sleepers". Even with all the information in today's fantasy landscape, the term sleeper has become a little antiquated. We can still label these players undervalued or under the radar. With that said, lets get to the list of some players that can make you look like the smartest person at your draft this year. The All Under Valued Team Eli Manning: Quarterback - New York Giants I know you're thinking, "Eli Manning!" Hear me out. Eli is almost always free in fantasy drafts. You can take him as your 2nd quarterback very late in the
TWW’s Fantasy Football Mock Draft – RD 2
Adam Wagner - Fantasy Sports Analyst: The Wagner Wire Its time for Round 2 of the fantasy football draft. Remember to draft according to the settings of the league that you're participating in. Kevin Epstein and I discussed scarcity on my last show and how it relates to fantasy football. Please don't become a victim of taking a QB in the 1st or 2nd Rds. If your league is a 2-QB league, then perhaps a QB in the 1st or 2nd Rd is warranted, but you will have your shot at Rivers in late rounds. Get the premium running backs and wide receiver while they are still on the draft board. This mock draft was constructed using a format of (1) QB
