I bet Le’Veon Bell wishes he could jump in a time machine and go back a few weeks. He would have gone back to the negotiating table and glanced at the Pittsburgh Steelers 5-year $70-million dollar offer and signed it immediately. Then he would have given his agent, Adisa P. Bakari, …

With the new season just mere hours away, last minute draft preparation goes into overdrive. Past performance can often be a good way of indicating future success, but don’t just expect the points players got in 2015 to magically make it on to your fantasy squad. Here are five studs from last season that, for one reason or another, will not be as successful this time around.
The winless Baltimore Ravens will look to kickstart their 2015 campaign on Thursday Night, as they travel to divisional rivals the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite their 2-1 record, all is not rosy with the hosts, as they look to recover from the loss of their talismanic quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and keep their season afloat until he returns in about four to six weeks.
Pittsburgh Steelers fans (and fantasy fans) were licking their chops at the teams prospects for 2015. With Ben Roethlisberger signing a new contract, more or less assuring he finishes his career in black and gold, Le’Veon Bell recovering from the knee hyperextension that ruled him out of the Wildcard round of last seasons playoffs, and Antonio Brown, Martavis Bryant and even Markus Wheaton ready to roll, it wouldn’t shock anyone if the Steelers did in fact achieve offensive coordinator Todd Haley’s goal of 30 points a game in the coming season.
Gridiron Experts just updated it’s latest fantasy projections last week (Version 2.1), but we will now factor in the extra game tweak with Bell’s suspension being reduced to just two games. The bonus game didn’t have much of an impact in standard scoring leagues, but actually put Bell over the edge in our PPR Projections.

By this late into the season, I have to admit that sometimes I feel fatigued. I’m either stressing out about which players to put in my lineups in a do-or-die playoff week, researching wide receiver bargains that could make sneaky daily plays this week, or I’m lamenting the mistakes that caused many draftday failures..
