20 Greatest fantasy football team names for 2018
17. Hey Darnold!
Player: Sam Darnold, QB, New York Jets
Current ADP: N/A
2017 Stats: N/A (in college)
If you were born in the 1990s and are a fan of the New York Jets (or USC Football), then this fantasy football team name is right up your alley.
Taking from the awesome 90s cartoon show Hey Arnold!, this name is short, sweet and drives home a sense of fun. It may not be the most clever or comical of the bunch, but it wins with a feel of nostalgia that takes you back to lazy Saturdays chilling in front of the TV while your parents are outside doing yard work (or was that just me?).
Now in regards to the player it references, there’s a lot to look forward to with Sam Darnold this season. The Jets’ first-round pick back in April, the young gunslinger figures to see at least a few starts this season. Although he needs to beat out veteran Josh McCown to do so, I can’t imagine the Jets keeping him on the bench all year long.
Darnold may not be a fantasy factor right away, but could be a nice waiver wire addition a few weeks into the season. If you’re willing to bet on his long-term potential, then roll with this name for your 2018 fantasy squad.
