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 […]

Daniel Carlson May Struggle To Make Impact Yet Again

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson scored just three fantasy points in his Week 1 debut against the Chargers, and it's unlikely the Raiders will be able to score more against a stout Baltimore Ravens defense in Week 2. Carlson enjoyed a great stretch from 2020-2022, finishing as a top-three kicker three years in a […]

Raiders D/ST Faces Big Uphill Battle Vs. Ravens

The Las Vegas Raiders D/ST will face one of its toughest challenges in just Week 2 of the season when they face the Baltimore Ravens.

Brock Bowers Looks To Build On Strong Debut Against Ravens

Las Vegas Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers had an impressive debut in Week 1, catching six passes on eight targets for 58 yards, good for 11.8 PPR fantasy points.

Alexander Mattison's Pass Catching Upside Makes Him Startable In Deep-Leagues

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison showcased his valuable role in the Raiders offense (as valuable as a role in that backfield can be) when he was targeted six times in Week 1, catching four passes for 43 yards and a touchdown. He will try to keep things rolling in a tough matchup against […]

Zamir White Could Need Positive Game Script To Outproduce Alexander Mattison

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White will need a positive game-script against the Ravens to outproduce his backfield mate Alexander Mattison in Week 2. Mattison is the passing-down back, and in losing games where the Raiders are forced to pass more, he should take the lead. That happened in Week 1, with White only […]

Gardner Minshew II Needs To Limit Mistakes, Risky Play For Week 2

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew II needs to limit costly mistakes, like fumbles and interceptions, if he wants a victory over the Baltimore Ravens in their Week 2 matchup. He had an interception and a terrible fumble in Week 1, where he threw the ball backward and onto the ground, where the Chargers recovered. […]

Jakobi Meyers Risky Flex Play Against The Ravens

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is a risky flex play in a tough matchup against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2. He only had three catches in Week 1 against the Chargers but made the most of his limited touches as he was the team's leading receiver. The 27-year-old had the biggest offensive […]

Davante Adams Ready For Raiders Week 2 Clash Vs. Ravens

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams is healthy and will look to build on his five-catch, 59-yard performance on six targets in Week 1 for their upcoming game against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are a stiff test for the Raiders, but Adams is still an excellent separator with good hands and should have […]

Alexander Mattison - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in Deep PPR Leagues (14+ Team) POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/RB4 ANALYSIS: Raiders running back Alexander Mattison had a nice debut for his new team, scoring 16.2 PPR fantasy points.
