Avoid Juwan Johnson Off Of Touchdown Performance

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson is coming off of a Week 15 match where he caught just his second touchdown of the season, but only saw two targets.

Rashid Shaheed Off Injury Report, Back To Volatile Role

New Orleans Saints second-year wide receiver Rashid Shaheed, who has battled a calf injury the past few weeks, is no longer listed on the injury report.

Alvin Kamara Remains RB1 Despite Tough Matchup

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has scored double-digit points in every start this season in PPR leagues sheerly based on volume, and that should not change heading into Week 16's Thursday night matchup with the Los Angeles Rams.

Blake Grupe Should Be Avoided In Week 15

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe has now posted back-to-back disappointing weeks.

Juwan Johnson Could See Increased Volume In Week 15

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson has had a disappointing season, as he missed four games with injuries and has only scored one touchdown so far this year.

Derek Carr Should Not Be Started In Week 15

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is off the injury report for the first time in a few weeks, but the report remains full of his weapons. Carr has not scored over 15 fantasy points since Week 9 and has not scored over 20 fantasy points once this entire season. The New York Giants have […]

Blake Grupe Looks To Bounce Back In Week 14

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe drilled all four extra-point attempts in Week 13's 33-28 loss to Detroit but did not attempt a field goal, which limited his fantasy production.

A.T. Perry Not On Fantasy Radar In Week 14

New Orleans Saints rookie wide receiver A.T. Perry has seen an uptick in playing time over the past three games with the position group banged up, but it has not translated to significant enough volume to warrant starting him in fantasy lineups.

Chris Olave Looks To Record Three Straight 100-Yard Outings

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave has been on a tear as of late, recording four straight games with either 100+ receiving yards or a touchdown.
