Zamir White Quiet Again In Raiders Win Over Ravens

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White turned another inefficient fantasy dud in Week 2, taking nine carries for just 24 yards (2.4 yards per carry) and catching three passes for 14 yards in Sunday's 26-23 win over the Baltimore Ravens. The 24-year-old has yet to score double-digit PPR fantasy points, logging just 6.8 in […]

Gardner Minshew II Has Pedestrian Day Despite Upset Win

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew II led his team to an upset 26-23 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday but still put up pedestrian passing numbers en route to a mediocre fantasy performance. Minshew passed for 276 yards on 38 pass attempts and a touchdown but tossed an interception while rushing once for […]

Brock Bowers Impresses With Nine Catch 98-Yard Performance

Las Vegas Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers built on his solid Week 1 performance with a standout game against the Ravens, with nine catches for 98 yards (18.8 PPR fantasy points) in Sunday's 26-23 upset win over Baltimore. He leads all tight ends in yardage after Week 2, a testament to his impressive efforts […]

Davante Adams Has Huge Game In Raiders Upset Win

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams bounced back in a big way Sunday, converting a team-high 12 targets into nine catches for 110 targets and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-23 upset win over the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens' defense is normally extremely tough, but they had no answer for Adams' elite play. The 31-year-old […]

Jahan Dotson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5 ANALYSIS: Even if A.J. Brown misses time, Philadelphia Eagles WR Jahan Dotson isn't worth putting in your starting lineups. He's brand new to the Eagles offensive scheme, hasn't had much time to adjust, and isn't a good receiver anyway. Dotson was let go by the Commanders […]

MarShawn Lloyd - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4 ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd was a great running back prospect drafted out of USC. He posted some eye-popping advanced statistics and many highlight-reel-worthy plays. However, he's a rookie coming off a hamstring injury, so his role and health are unclear. He's a risky start this […]

Will A.J. Brown Play In Week 2? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown has enjoyed two fantastic seasons in a row, finishing as the WR6 and WR5 in PPR fantasy scoring in 2022-2023. Brown got off to another hot start in 2024, catching five passes for 119 yards and a touchdown against the Packers in Week 1. Brown had a highlight reel […]

Darnell Mooney - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4 ANALYSIS: The Atlanta Falcons got off to an ice-cold start to the 2024 season. QB Kirk Cousins has had a fantastic career, especially at supporting fantasy-relevant WRs, and Mooney is the No. 2 WR on the Falcons' depth chart. WR Ray-Ray McCloud III led the team in receiving yards […]

Jaylen Warren - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/RB4 ANALYSIS: While Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren provides excellent receiving upside and tantalizing ability to produce explosive plays when healthy, he's still nursing a hamstring injury, and was clearly limited in Week 1, recording just two carries and two receptions. Fellow Steelers RB Najee […]

Malik Willis - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit (Absolutely Do Not Start) POSITIONAL VALUE: QB3 ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers quarterback Malik Willis is terrible. There's really nothing redeeming to his game, other than some rushing ability that's immediately negated by the fact that defenses know he can't throw the ball well or read their defenses and can simply play the […]

Tank Bigsby - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in Very Deep Leagues (16+ Teams) POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/RB4 ANALYSIS: Tank Bigsby had an efficient start to his season in Week 1, shaking off the rust from his disappointing 2023 campaign and logging 73 rushing yards on 12 carries. Bigsby outgained starting running back Travis Etienne Jr. by 29 yards and was […]

Jalen Nailor - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4 ANALYSIS: One target in Week 1. That's all you need to know about Minnesota Vikings WR Jalen Nailor for now. Even though it was a touchdown, it's far too early to put Nailor in starting lineups. Unless you're in a 20-team league with 5 WR spots. Maybe not that […]

Josh Downs, Alec Pierce: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 2

Indianapolis Colts wide receivers Josh Downs and Alec Pierce have had their moments so far in the NFL, but neither have put together consistent production. The two players profile as different assets for the Colts offense. Downs is great against man coverage and on short and intermediate routes, using his short-area quickness to generate fast […]

Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson, Colby Parkinson: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 2

With the injury to Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua, a target hog and monster producer in the 2023 season, a significant vacuum has opened up, giving a golden opportunity to the other Rams pass catchers to shine. Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson, and Colby Parkinson are all poised to receive higher workloads, and choosing the right […]

Isaac Guerendo (RB, SF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues (16+ Teams) or as a Handcuff ROSTERED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Though San Francisco running back Christian McCaffrey is being considered for IR after a worsening of his calf and Achilles injuries, Guerendo is unlikely to see much playing time. Head coach Kyle Shanahan doesn't typically give […]

Fantasy Football Rookie Report for Week 2 - Searching For League Winners

Rookies offer league-winning cheat codes quite often in fantasy football. It's possible to get players that are relatively unknown but go on to have massive, league-winning seasons for very cheap (like late-round draft picks or trading far inferior players), and being early on rookies can get your team over the hump and the championship. Just […]

Taysom Hill - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1 ANALYSIS: While Saints tight end Taysom Hill didn't have the best game in Week 1, the tight end position is grimmer than a Franz Kafka novel, and Hill has a nice rushing floor to lean on in an offense that wants to utilize him as a multi-talented weapon. He […]

Is Jayden Reed Injured or Playing In Week 2? Should I Start Christian Watson For Fantasy Football?

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (shin/calf) had a massive game in Week 1, finishing as the WR1 overall for the week and scoring 33.1 PPR fantasy points. Reed showed dominance in both receiving and rushing, scoring touchdowns on the ground and through the air. Reed appears to be building off his 2023 season, […]

Bucky Irving - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in Deep (14+ Team) Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3 ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving had a nice debut game against the Washington Commanders, carrying the ball nine times for 62 yards (good for 6.9 yards per carry) and had two catches for 14 yards, scoring 7.6 fantasy points. That kind […]

Should I Pickup Demarcus Robinson or Tyler Johnson? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

Los Angeles Rams wide receivers Demarcus Robinson and Tyler Johnson are primed for larger roles in the offense after the injury to fellow receiver Puka Nacua. With Nacua's absence, a significant target vacuum opens up. Quarterback Matthew Stafford is still playing at a high level, and typically attempts enough passes per game to support at […]

Will Jameson Williams Play In Week 2? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams exploded for 24.4 fantasy points in his Week 1 game against the Los Angeles Rams. Williams was uncoverable, ripping off multiple explosive plays. The Lions receiving corps production in totality was a shock to the NFL world in Week 1, with WR Amon-Ra St. Brown recording just three catches […]

Zach Charbonnet, Jordan Mason, Tank Bigsby: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 2

Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet, 49ers running back Jordan Mason, and Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby are all fantasy-relevant running backs that could have an impact in Week 2 of 2024. All three players are in different positions, with varying levels of potential that could potentially lead to big scoring weeks. Should you start Zach […]

Aaron Jones - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: Former Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones showed us he still had it in his first game with the Vikings. This was readily apparent in the Packers' playoff games last year, but there were a few questions lingering about Jones' explosiveness and durability due […]

Andrei Iosivas - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4 ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andre Iosivas had the perfect opportunity to impress in Week 1, with fellow WR Tee Higgins missing the game and Ja'Marr Chase coming off significant missed practice time and dealing with a case of food poisoning. Iosivas failed to do much of anything, scoring […]

Sam Darnold - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit in 1QB Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2 ANALYSIS: Minnesota Vikings QB Sam Darnold had a good debut against the New York Giants in Week 1, tossing for 208 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. However, he is not a top-12 fantasy QB. He has very little rushing upside and is not a high-volume […]

When Will Puka Nacua Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua broke the hearts of many fantasy managers (through no fault of his own) when he went down with a knee injury in Week 1 and had to be carted off the field. Nacua was coming off a historic rookie season in 2023 that saw him break the all-time […]

Is Malik Nabers Hurt or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers is off to a fine start in 2024, catching five passes for 66 yards in his debut against the Minnesota Vikings. It was a bad day overall for the Giants as they got blown out, so Nabers could have a better game in Week 2 against the […]

Is Kenneth Walker III Injured or Playing In Week 2? Should I Start Zach Charbonnet For Fantasy Football?

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III had a great start to 2024, racking up 103 yards, a touchdown, and two catches for six yards, good for 18.9 PPR fantasy points. Walker had somewhat of a down year in 2023 with multiple dud games, but he is still a fantastic talent and likely struggled due to […]

Wan'Dale Robinson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4 ANALYSIS: New York Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson had a nice start to 2024, earning 12 targets and catching six passes for 44 yards in the Giants' Week 1 opener. However, there's no reason he should continue to out-target fellow WR Malik Nabers, and 12 targets is likely not sustainable. […]

Matthew Stafford - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2 ANALYSIS: Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is a good real-life quarterback, but that doesn't always translate to fantasy scoring. He's also 36 years old and not very mobile, which is a downside for fantasy. Stafford isn't among the top-12 quarterbacks in fantasy in 2024. He's obviously a […]
