What is one bold fantasy prediction (player related) for the upcoming week and why could it happen?

“WR Jameson Williams finishes as a top 20 WR with 7 receptions for 130 yards and TD. Happy Festivus, everyone! The tradition of Festivus begins with the airing of grievances. I’ve got a lot of problems with you people, and now you’re going to hear about them, such as with Detroit head coach Dan Campbell. Why aren’t you using Jameson Williams as a featured WR? He runs like a gazelle, has the talent to be an all-pro, and has the ability to torch the Vikings’ pass defense if given a chance, especially with perfect passing conditions inside U.S. Bank Stadium. Instead of biting kneecaps, go on a diet and just throw Jameson the rock!”

What is one bold fantasy prediction (player related) for the upcoming week and why could it happen?

“WR DeAndre Hopkins is a top 10 WR with 9 receptions 150 yards and a TD. We're going with the David Portnoy pizza review theme: one bite, I mean, one bold prediction. Everyone knows the rules. It's a revenge game for DeAndre Hopkins, who faces his old team, the Houston Texans, this week. Nuke figures to have an extra spring in his step and will want to stick it to his old team; kind of like how my readers want to stick it to me because of my terrible jokes haha!”

Which player inside the top 40 in the flex rankings is likely to disappoint fantasy managers this week?

“RB Austin Ekeler. Full disclosure- the last two years I've faded Austin Ekeler and the last two years I've been burned. Now I know how Dr. Evil feels. Austin Ekeler is the snake to my mongoose, or the mongoose or my snake? Either way, it's bad. Good luck without star QB, Justin Herbert, who is out for the year. Rot in hell Powers, I mean Ekeler- muah!”

What is one bold fantasy prediction (player related) for the upcoming week and why could it happen?

”WR Gabe Davis finishes as a top 10 WR with 6 receptions 130 yards and 1 TD. Davis has given the Chiefs fits in the past, maybe he can rekindle some of that magic once again? This figures to be a high-scoring game, and the Bills have added some weapons since Kansas City saw them last. If Kansas City defends him with man coverage, Davis and Allen are talented enough to burn them with some big plays. Just like I’m talented enough to burn my readers with my awful jokes haha!”

Published on Fantasy Pros article, “Featured Pros Week 14 Bold Predictions”

Which player outside of the top 100 in the flex rankings is a good sleeper start and why do you think he has upside this week?

”TE Cade Otton. After the elite TEs, picking a TE to have a good week is a complete crapshoot. Otton is a good-looking youngster, with talented receiving chops. In what figures to be a high-scoring game, give me Otton with a decent matchup vs a struggling Falcons' defense, in the perfect climate-controlled weather conditions of Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Perhaps if I told my jokes in the climate-controlled weather conditions of a dome, they would be funnier? Then again, how is that even possible? Haha!”

Published on FantasyPros article, “Featured Pros Week 14 Sleeper Starts and Duds”

Which player outside of the top 100 in the flex rankings is a good sleeper start and why do you think he has upside this week?

”WR Cedric Tillman. The Browns #1 WR, Amari Cooper, and starting QB, Dorian Thompson-Robinson, were injured last week. At the time of this writing, it's unknown if Cooper and Thompson-Robinson will play. If they don't, Cedric Tillman would move up the WR ladder to the being the Browns top option for veteran signal caller, Joe Flacco. Former Bengals WR, Chad "Ocho Cinco" Johnson, called Tillman a future star. Of course, my readers call me a current idiot, so there you have it haha!”

Published on FantasyPros article, “Featured Pros Week 13 Sleeper Starts and Duds”

Which player outside of the top 100 in the flex rankings is a good sleeper start and why do you think he has upside this week?

”TE Isaiah Likely. The Ravens lost one of their top weapons last week when starting TE Mark Andrews went down. It's next man up time, and that man is TE Isaiah Likely. Likely is known for his receiving chops rather than his blocking ability. It might not be likely, but it's certainly possible that Likely emerges as one of Lamar Jackson's top targets, especially against a Chargers defense which has struggled this season. It is, however, very likely that I continue to tell incredibly bad jokes this Thanksgiving haha!”

What is one bold fantasy prediction (player related) for the upcoming week and why could it happen?

"WR Davante Adams finishes outside the Top 40 WRs and WR Noah Brown finishes ahead of him. The Raiders have struggled all year in pass protection and now they have to take on one of the best defenses in the NFL, the Jets. In this week of The Bold and the Beautiful Fantasy Predictions, I’m betting that trend continues. Instead, I’d rather roll the dice on WR Noah Brown, assuming Nico Collins doesn't play. Will Davante Adams struggle vs the Jets? Will Noah Brown do well vs Cincinnati? Will I ever tell a funny joke? Tune in next week to find these answers and more, on The Bold and the Beautiful Fantasy Predictions!”
