Dynasty Rankings: Top 50 WRs

Image
 We’re into the new league year and have seen major movement among veterans. We’re still a bit away from the draft, where rookies will start to shake up the standings. But this is start up season. So, if you’re looking to jump into dynasty, it’s time to take stock of the players available. Below is my Top 50 Dynasty WRs, divided into seven tiers. Tier 1: No. 1: Ja’Marr Chase No. 2: Jaxon Smith-Njigba No. 3: Justin Jefferson About: Chase is a rare talent and JSN has taken a huge step up. Jefferson had a bit of a down year in 2025, but you have to figure his quarterback play has nowhere to go but up. I think these three are the top with a bit of separation from the next group. Tier 2: No. 4: CeeDee Lamb No. 5: Malik Nabers No. 6: Amon-Ra St. Brown No. 7: Puka Nacua About: The question you probably have is about Nacua. You could make a case he belongs in the top tier, and I would agree if this was just about talent and play on the field. But Nacua has had some increasingly concernin...

Now Playing

 It’s been a big week for releases, including one of the most anticipated animated films of the year. But was it worth your time to check the films out? I give my take on the week’s new movies below. You can keep up with everything I’m watching by following me on Letterboxd @knighthawk7734. The Drama (Theaters) Starring: Robert Pattinson and Zendaya Synopsis: For most, their wedding day is supposed to be a time of joy and celebration. It’s the happiest day of your life. You’ve found love and are ready to make a commitment and build a life with someone you know deeply. But what happens when all those feelings and plans get derailed? In the new film The Drama, we have a couple that are faced with that exact question. The film from writer/director Kristoffer Borgli is about a couple embarking on their wedding week when a simple question and game among friends throws everything out of balance. We meet Charlie (Pattinson) as he’s writing his wedding speech and toast. He’s about to mar...

Spring TV Roundup, Week 1

Image
 We’re into April and Spring is upon us. It’s a time where Networks and Streamers are trying to get that final wave of series in for Emmy consideration. But there’s also shows aimed at attracting viewers of all interests, too. So, what of these new shows is worth your time to check out? Let this weekly post be your guide as I review the pilot and second episode of new series this Spring! Mondays: Star Wars: Maul—Shadow Lord, Mondays on Disney+ (Premiered April 6) About : The one staple of Star Wars content in the Disney era has been the animated series. Whether ongoing shows or the annual limited releases, we’ve seen a plethora of these stories each year, usually targeted toward the spring and the upcoming Star Wars Day. That’s the case for this latest series, Maul, which focuses on the iconic character first introduced in Episode I: The Phantom Menace. The series debuted with two episodes on Monday and will offer two more episodes each week through May 4. The series is set after t...

2026 Broncos' Season, Draft Needs

Image
 We're closing in on the NFL Draft, which kicks off on Thursday, April 23. The Broncos have signed back key free agents and traded for Jaylen Waddle. But as the draft approaches, there are crucial positions that still need to be addressed. Could that happen in the draft? Perhaps. Let's dive in. Running Back: The Broncos brought back J.K. Dobbins and Jaleel McLaughlin. Along with Tyler Badie and R.J. Harvey, that leaves the Broncos with the same backs they had in 2025. But the team has talked about getting more out of the running game. Deuce Vaughn is also on the roster, but is that the boost Sean Payton was talking about? Could the Broncos add another player in the draft? That might make sense, but isn't the highest need. Tight End : The Broncos similarly seem to have run it back from 2025. Evan Engram was a big, off-season addition last year, but we didn't see much on the field. The Broncos brought back Adam Trautman and Lucas Krull, but is that all the plan is at tigh...

2006 Rewind: She's The Man

Image
It's hard to believe, but 2006 was 20 years ago. Over the next few weeks I'm going to be looking at some stand out films from 2006 that are turning 20 in 2026. Today, it's a classic comedy. Viola : Speaking as a completely third party objective with absolutely no personal interest in the matter, I'm not really sure that you and Olivia really mesh well together. She's the Man Starring : Amanda Bynes, Channing Tatum, and Laura Ramsey Director : Andy Fickman About : This is a classic comedy that was part of a wave of films in the late 1990s and early 2000s that were adaptations of Shakespeare plays. This one is based on Twelfth Night . It's also a fascinating watch now given the arc of things for Bynes. She had a great knack for these kind of parts and this kind of physical comedy. It's a gift watching this film now, as it was a gift watching it 20 years ago. This has consistently made me laugh. I enjoy Bynes in the lead, the wild story, and a young Tatum. This...

100 Years, 100 Movies: No. 76

Image
Back in 1998, the American Film Institute unveiled its list of the 100 greatest films as voted on by members of the cinematic community. The year, I'm looking at the films on that list, re-ranked according to my preference. Check back Fridays and Saturdays throughout the year as we walk through this list of classic films. Henry, the Ringo Kid: Well, there are some things a man just can't run away from. Stagecoach (1939) Original List Ranking : 63 Starring : John Wayne, Claire Trevor, John Carradine, and Louise Platt Director : John Ford About: Some people think 1939 was the greatest year for movies. This is part of that epic run of 1939 films, and a classic from John Ford featuring John Wayne. It's an interesting story that remains popular with viewers even decades later. It's not a surprise that it ended up on this list, though it was omitted from the update a decade later. It's a classic Western, though it's not a film I love as much as some other westerns fr...

AFI 100 Years, 100 Movies: No. 77

Image
Back in 1998, the American Film Institute unveiled its list of the 100 greatest films as voted on by members of the cinematic community. The year, I'm looking at the films on that list, re-ranked according to my preference. Check back Fridays and Saturdays throughout the year as we walk through this list of classic films. Antonio Salieri: [reflecting upon a Mozart score] On the page it looked nothing. The beginning simple, almost comic. Just a pulse. Bassoons and basset horns, like a rusty squeezebox. And then suddenly, high above it, an oboe. A single note, hanging there, unwavering. Until a clarinet took over and sweetened it into a phrase of such delight! This was no composition by a performing monkey! This was a music I'd never heard. Filled with such longing, such unfulfillable longing, it had me trembling. It seemed to me that I was hearing the voice of God. Amadeus (1984) Original List Ranking: 53 Starring: Tom Hulce and F. Murray Abraham Director : Milos Foreman Abou...
