Tampa Bay Buccaneers center Ryan Jensen is never one to brag about himself, but the truth of the matter is, he's done a lot of work over the years in support of veterans and the military community.His efforts there date back to his days with the Baltimore Rondale Moore T Shirts Ravens, before he ever donned the pewter colors he'd eventually win a Super Bowl in.And because of those efforts, he's been nominated to win the 2022 Salute to Service Award Presented by USAA."Ryan Jensen makes Salute to Service efforts a priority through relationships, outreach programs and gameday initiatives," the league said in a pre s release.

In traditional single-QB fantasy football leagues, it's often been good practice to wait until the middle rounds of your drafts to select a quarterback. With the recent emergence of dual-threat QBs and nuclear pa sing numbers, the temptation to take a QB early has gotten more enticing. This year, the top tier in the rankings consists ofPatrick Mahomes, Kyler Murray, and Josh Allen. Each po se ses qualities that separate him from the rest of the pack -- namely rushing prowe s andelectric playmakers around them.When deciding on whether to take a QB early, it's important to understand the risks involvedand the premier players at other positions on which you might mi s out. Sure, having an advantage at the quarterback position is fun, but how often does it correlate to fantasy succe s? Often, when it does (like having Mahomes in 2018 or Jacob Tamme Jersey Lamar Jackson in '19), it's because you drafted those players in the middle part of your draft.2021 STANDARD FANTASY RANKINGS: | | | | | | Below, we'll highlight the pros and cons related to smashing the draft button on your QB1 in the first three roundsand help steer you toward your desired strategy at the position.2021 PPR FANTASY RANKINGS: | | | | | | Most people ask: "Who is the best fantasy quarterback? Instead, we ask: "Who is the best fantasy quarterback to select ?"After all, that's a core principle of fantasy. Do you take Mahomes, who is likely to come off the board in the late first or middle second, according to , or do you wait on Allen orMurray in the third round if you must have a top-tier quarterback?We have Mahomes as the top QB in our rankings, but when it comes down Denver Broncos Jackets to value, Murray seems to be the best choice. His ADP sits at the end of the third round, about eight spots after Allen, and even in Allen's breakout QB1 campaign last year, Murray trailed him by just 15 total fantasy points. By taking Allen, you're giving up a chance at several workhorse running backs, such asDavid Montgomery, Josh Jacobs, D'AndreSwift. Why not waitone more roundand get similar projected production?Now, if Mahomes or Allen really falls, then suddenly they'll become good values. Each draft will be different, but if things unfold similar to the consensus ADP, then the above paragraph appliesif you insiston taking one of the top-threeguys. However, should you take one early at all?DOMINATE YOUR DRAFT: Pros of the early-round QBHaving a quarterback produce around 400 fantasy points can be a spectacular advantage on the rest of your league. We've seen Lamar Jackson, Patrick Mahomes, and Josh Allen be league winners over the past three years. At their best, they easily make up for the lo s of quality running backs and wide receivers around their ADPs. Allen Jerry Jeudy T Shirts and Murray have the potential to match rushing touchdown totals of some of the early running backs drafted, and Mahomes is due for several outings approaching the 400-yard pa sing mark. It's truly a big flex to own one of these guys.2021 FANTASY AUCTION VALUES (Standard & PPR): | | | | | | Cons of the early round QBWe mentioned Allen, Jackson, and Mahomes as league-winners over the past three seasons. What did those three have in common? They weren't drafted significantly early in their Denver Broncos Pet Gear breakout seasons.2021 FANTASY CONSISTENCY RATINGS: | | | Think last year. If you took Jackson anywhere near the first round (which you would've had to), you likely lost your fantasy league. Among quarterbacks who played more than just five games, he ranked eighth at the position in fantasy points per game (22.8). Obviously, his season performance was nowhere near on par with his extremely costly draft capital. Of course, players can always bust, but the quarterback position often sees a lot of variance year-to-year. In 2018, Patrick Mahomes was QB1 and 63 points ahead of the next closest signal-caller (Matt Ryan). In '19 Jackson was QB1, 73 points ahead of No. 2 (Dak Prescott).That being said, there's usually only been one quarterback who really separates himself from the rest of the pack.2021 FANTASY TIERS & DRAFT STRATEGY: | | | |Additionally, Allen and Murray only have one season of evidence as top-notch fantasy quarterbacks. Touchdown numbers are fluid year-to-year, and the consistency at QB is often elusive. One year, a team may decide to pa s often in the red zone, and the next opt to hand it off to their running backs, vulturing your QB fantasy points. Just look at the pa sing touchdown numbers of first-ballot Hall-of-FamersAaron Rodgers, Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady over the course of their careers. Some seasons, they approach 50, and others sit around the mid-20s.2021 FANTASY SLEEPERS: | | | | | The evidence points towardwaiting on a quarterback after Shelby Harris Jersey the first tier unle s they drop lower than expected. In single-QB leagues, an early-round QB busting often spells a knife in the heart of your fantasy season. Identifying sleepers is probably more important at quarterback than any other position. Cases in point: Mahomes Denver Broncos Home Office , Allen, and Jackson were all on sleeper lists prior to their explosive years.Sure, the early-round QB and paid off, but more often than not, sacrificing a high-quality player at a different position has not been worth it in the end.FANTASY DRAFT STRATEGY: | | | Final WordIn the end, it's fantasy draft. If you love the top-tier quarterback, go for it. Just be prepared to find value at the rest of the positions in the draft. Taking an early-round QB leaves le s wiggle room to take chances in other rounds. As the draft proceeds, the quality at running back and tight end diminish quickly, while quarterback value is still present.Hedging your bets isn't always ideal in fantasy football either, but pair your early quarterback with a late-round sleeper. Best case: They both pan outand you can trade your newfound fantasy quarterback to make up for value lost at other positions.

The Las Vegas Raiders and Raider Nation owe their franchise to the arch-rival Los Angeles Chargers, in more ways than one.When the American Football League was in the proce s of being founded ahead of the 1960 season, the AFL franchise that was supposed to go to Minneapolis was stolen away by the established National Football League and became the Minnesota Vikings.The AFL was down to seven projected franchises, but Chargers owner Barron Hilton wanted to have another team in California to give his team a natural rival, in addition to wanting to have a short trip for at least one road game since the closest teams in the league to Los Angeles were the Denver Broncos and Dallas Texans.With Hiltons influence, the Oakland Raiders were born, which turned out to be a good thing for the Chargers immediately in more ways than those already mentioned as Los Angeles (and later San Diego when the team moved there in 1961) beat Oakland the first six times the teams played by scores of 52-28, 41-17, 44-0, 41-10, 42-33 and Baron Browning Jersey 31-21.The Raiders were 6-8, 2-12, and 1-13 in those first three AFL seasons, but in 1963, Oaklands owners Alexander Johnson Jersey reached onto Coach Sid Gillmans coaching staff in San Diego and hired a sistant Al Davis as a coach and general manager.Davis turned around the Raiders franchise in dramatic fashion that season with a 10-4 record, winning their last eight games to wind up one game behind the Chargers in the AFLs Western Division.The Raiders were on their way to becoming one of the great franchises in sports and beat the Chargers for the first two times that season, 34-33, at Balboa Stadium in San Diego and in an incredible 41-27 comeback victory at Frank Youell Field in Oakland by scoring 31 unanswered points in the fourth quarter.Both teams have moved around in the ensuing 63 seasons, the Chargers from Los Angeles to San Diego and now back to Los Angeles, while the Raiders went from Oakland to Los Angeles, back to Oakland, and now to Las Vegas.Perhaps the most famous game and play in the series came on Sept. 10, 1978, when the Raiders had the ball at the Chargers 14-yard-line and were trailing, 20-14, with 10 seconds left at Jack Murphy Stadium in San Diego when Raiders quarterback Kenny Snake Stabler was about to be sacked by Chargers linebacker Woodrow Lowe.As he was going down, Stabler intentionally lost the ball, hoping to make it look like a fumble. Running back Pete Banaszak knocked the ball toward the goal line and tight end Dave Casper dribbled it a couple of times before recovering it in the end zone for what was ruled a touchdown. And the Raiders won 21-20.The play will be known forever Jamar Johnson Jersey as The Holly Roller.The Oakland Raiders have scored on the most zany, unbelievable, absolutely impo sible dream of a play, Raiders legendary radio play-by-play announcer Bill King chortled on the air. (Coach John) Madden is on the field, he wants to know if its real. They said: Yes it is, get your big butt out of here. He does. There's nothing real in the world anymore. This one will be relived, forever.Said Stabler: We had no timeouts and if I get sacked the game is over. In that situation, if you lose po se sion of the ball, hopefully, something good happens. I fumbled the ball on purpose, Banaszak knocked it forward and Casper recovered for what was ruled a touchdown. Thats my story and Im sticking to it.The best thing was seeing the San Diego Chicken (the Chargers mascot) up there in the stands behind the end zone. He was stumbling around and it looked like he was having a heart attack. And then he just collapsed and was lying there lifele s, like he had died.Scroll to ContinueWe won and a I got about as big a kick out of that as anything else.

One of the biggest questions hanging over the -- if not biggest -- this offseason is what they are going to do at quarterback. As things stand currently, they Drew Lock Jersey could go in three directions. They could either take a prospect with the No. 2 overall pick at the 2021 draft, try to find the answer somewhere on the open market, or keep the train moving with . Most point to New York going with the first option and simply hitting the reset button at the position, selecting a player (Justin Fields?) with the second pick and moving on from Darnold.The third-year pro did say earlier this season, however, that he and hoped to remain the starter heading into 2021 while also acknowledging his uncertain future with New York in line for a high pick. When asked about Darnold's standing within the organization heading into the offseason, GM Joe Douglas was predictably noncommittal and seemingly suggested that a final decision won't come until a new head coach is hired."Look, we've got a lot of decisions to make. I think Sam's going to be a great Tim Patrick Jersey quarterback. I'm excited to get a head coach in here, go through our proce s," Douglas told reporters on Tuesday via a Zoom conference, via . "I had a great conversation with Sam yesterday. I won't go into the specifics, but I think Sam has a very bright future in this league. We're going to get a head coach in here, we' Ed McCaffrey Jersey re going to get together, we're going to talk about quite a few decisions. I'm excited about Sam." CAR QB #14 CMP%59.6YDs2208TD9INT11YD/Att6.07 The Darnold era hasn't exactly been Frank Tripucka Jersey as big of a succe s as most around the organization had hoped when the USC product was selected with the No. 3 overall pick back in 2018. Over the course of his three-year tenure in New York, Darnold is 13-25 as a starter. As Douglas noted, however, that poor record isn't exclusively on him as the roster around him has hit a number of speed bumps. "I think Sam faced a lot of obstacles this year, as did everybody, dealing obviously with COVID and frankly, we had quite a few injuries -- on the offensive line, at the wide receiver position," the Jets GM explained. "I think it was hard for our offense in general to really build the kind of sustained chemistry to create succe s throughout the Russell Wilson Jersey year. I think we had different offensive line groups. Like I said earlier, we didn't really get a chance to get our top three receivers on the field at the same time until Week 9. I think all of those things impacted not only Sam, but our offense."I do think you saw in the month of December, Sam played a lot of good Courtland Sutton Jersey ball. You saw we were able to beat two playoff teams and a lot of that is because of the way Sam played. Like I said before, I really think that Sam truly does have a bright future in this league, a 23-year-old quarterback, and Sam's still going to get better every year." By the way Douglas is talking, there does seem to be a chance that they continue down the path with Darnold and move elsewhere with the No. 2 pick.
