Welcome to Field Pass!
If you're new here, I've got some really good news for you: You're not alone. As a matter of fact, so am I, as today marks the debut of a column that I'm thrilled to present to you each week during the regular season.
As a father of a 7-month-old child, I'm acutely aware that you have to crawl before you can walk (heck, I'm figuring out that you have to scoot before you can crawl. Anyone have tips on how to babyproof a house?). I say that to illuminate this point: What you see today is the start of our model, not necessarily the finished product.
The point of this column will be as follows: Imagine you had the luxury of watching Monday Night Football on a private jet that was chartering you to a location -- a spot of your choosing -- anywhere in the world for a 72-ish-hour getaway. Upon return, you're just hours away from the start of a new week of football with the Thursday night game around the corner and you spent exactly zero minutes of your time following what had happened since you stepped off that plane on Monday night.
Field Pass' goal is to give you the precise intel you need on the most important fantasy football storylines, which includes some help from friends at ESPN, who offer the best and freshest insight into what matters most. You'll hear from our incredible team of NFL Nation reporters, who are locked in 365 days a year on the teams they cover, our national reporters -- including fantasy football-obsessed Adam Schefter -- and our fantasy analysts here at ESPN. Our rolodex is vast; we'll dial up whomever we need.
We're really looking forward to this ride and hope you are as well. You can help us and the other readers of this column with feedback: Feel free to find me on Twitter @FieldYates to share some thoughts.
Old wide receiver faces, new wide receiver places
Davante Adams and Tyreek Hill were each traded this offseason, headlining a series of moves that saw elite wideouts get paid more than ever. From a fantasy perspective, many have questioned whether Adams and Hill can sustain their otherworldly production when transitioning to quarterbacks who aren't among the best to ever play the game.
Hill goes to Miami, where his quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has thrown just one touchdown pass of more than 30 yards in his career.
