The NFL preseason is under way and that only truly means one thing. Fantasy football is back. After months of suffering from the reigning champ of your league gloating or the months of you victory lapping your latest title, a new season is finally upon us. While you've probably been tirelessly researching what players you need to draft or evaluating the team you already did pick, that's only one part of constructing your perfect championship squad.
Every fantasy GM has to scheme up a great team name. While that name is usually based off the players you pick, you're going to need something creative, catchy, and witty. We've seen the overused classic names over the years like "Lights, Kamara Action, or "Ain’t No Waller-Back Girl" but it's time to change things up a bit. That's what we are here for.
We picked the best fantasy team names for the 2023 season. If you’re lucky or unlucky enough to land one of these players on your fantasy squad, these are your best options.
Bijan Mustard
Run CMC
The Bryce Is Right
Kyler The Creator
Country Roads, Take Mahomes

Naming your team after Dak Prescott is a choice. If you choose that route, this is another classic that you can't go wrong with. Again, I warn you naming your team after Dak Prescott is a choice. Your team takes on the identity of your team name and in this situation, you're likley to have a successful regular season while flaming out in the playoffs.
Oh Saquon You See

There was some doubt Saquon Barkley would be in a Giants uniform this fall but Saquon is back in blue after some back-and-forth with the front office on his contract. Saquon proved he was still elite last season despite his slow finish to the year and most of all, he was able to stay healthy. Will the Giants be as dependent on him to carry the offense? That's unlikely especially after they paid Daniel Jones $140 million but Saquon will always be a threat to put up numbers whether on the ground or in the air. This another classic name that will always work.

The most popular types of fantasy football leagues are standard and PPR leagues. These types of leagues use different scoring formats from one another, which can change the value of certain players and alter the composition of teams. Within these types of scoring, re-draft leagues are most common.
Whether you're playing for money, keeps or bragging rights, finding value throughout your fantasy football draft is the key to winning leagues. Anyone can take Justin Jefferson or Christian McCaffrey at No. 1 overall and pat themselves on the back.
Not surprisingly, the No. 1 pick is the best draft position this year. That's largely because our projections have Justin Jefferson as easily the most valuable player in fantasy football. Rhamondre Stevenson and Mark Andrews are also strong picks at the 2-3 turn.
Running backs tends to be the better pick at this point because the wide receivers in a few rounds are much better values than the running backs, so it's better to go running back early. CeeDee Lamb is the one wide receiver to consider for someone who really wants to go with a wide receiver in the first round.
This is the easiest place to start, and likely the most common way League players choose their names. The real-name method carries over into professional play, and there is no reason you cannot use it.
Even the example of Baldur's Gate drew on recent history. Using historical references, especially people or groups, can be a great way to add meaning to your fantasy location names while helping you flesh out the history of your world even more.
Ten team leagues are probably the most popular type of fantasy football league, likely due to the competitive nature and the ability to still have a good team. With the player pool reaching 160 players, free agents will be less limited and building a good team may take a little knowledge.
