Scotty Miller Gets 73 Yards In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Scotty Miller recorded five receptions on six targets for 73 yards in the Week 1 loss to the Saints. With Mike Evans dealing with a hamstring injury and not playing at full capacity, the underrated Miller got some more looks and capitalized. Tom Brady often raved about Miller's abilities in […]

Chris Godwin Leads Team In Receiving Yards

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin led the team with six receptions on seven targets for 79 yards in Week 1. With fellow wideout Mike Evans not at 100 percent, Godwin shouldered the load in the loss against the Saints. He is a WR1 candidate each week considering his major role on the team […]

Leonard Fournette Receives Only Five Carries

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette finished his debut with five carries for five yards and one reception for 14 yards. After coach Bruce Arians promised a solid role for the new RB in Week 1, it was quite disappointing that Fournette couldn't muster much of anything while also getting a very limited amount […]

Ronald Jones II Leads Team In Carries

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II was able to keep the role coach Bruce Arians promised for Week 1, which was being the lead back. Jones got 17 carries and turned it into 66 yards while also chipping in 16 receiving yards. What was more encouraging for this RB was the fact that […]

Tom Brady Tosses Two Picks In Buccaneers Debut

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady had a tough debut with his new team, going 23-for-36 and getting 239 passing yards with two touchdowns and two picks. Brady notably threw a pick-six in the contest as well. The legendary QB's debut with his new team didn't go as well as hoped, but that also attributes […]

Ian Thomas Sees Cold Start To 2020 Season

Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas only managed two receptions for 16 yards on two targets in Week 1. With Greg Olsen now out of the picture, Thomas is the new TE1 on Carolina, but he didn't start the 2020 season off on the right foot. The TE still has no competition for his role, […]

Curtis Samuel Sees Eight Targets

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel saw eight targets in Week 1, but only managed five receptions for 38 yards. Samuel finished tied for third in yards on the team, and didn't have an encouraging start to the 2020 campaign. The Ohio State product should be considered the WR3 on the team, and it's best […]

D.J. Moore Gets Four Catches In Week 1

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore had a quiet Week 1 to the 2020 season, getting four receptions on nine targets for 54 yards. Despite a high-scoring affair with the Raiders, it was Robby Anderson and Christian McCaffrey who shined instead of Moore. It was encouraging to see him lead the team in targets, but […]

Robby Anderson Gets Over 100 Yards In Debut

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson had a terrific debut with his new team in Week 1, notching six receptions for 115 yards and one touchdown. Surprisingly, it was Anderson who led all Carolina receivers in yards and receptions, but it was one 75-yard touchdown in which Anderson got most of his yards. With D.J. […]

Christian McCaffrey Continues To Showcase Elite Abilities

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey showed no signs of rust in the 34-30 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 1. The talented back ran for 96 yards and had two touchdowns on 23 carries. He also added three receptions for 38 yards. As the focal point of the offense, it was no […]

Teddy Bridgewater Opens Carolina Debut With 270 Yards

Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater recorded 270 passing yards, one passing touchdown, zero picks, and was 22-for-34 overall in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. He also added four rushes for 26 yards. It was a modest Panthers debut for the QB. Bridgewater is certainly not the most explosive QB, so it's most […]

Carson Wentz Fully Healthy For Week 1

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is fully healthy for Week 1's matchup against the Washington Football team. This comes after he missed practice a couple of weeks ago due to groin tightness. Nevertheless, Wentz holds no injury designation for Week 1 and is a QB1 this week against a Washington team that was in the […]

Joe Mixon Not On Injury Report

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon does not have an injury designation heading into Week 1's clash against the Chargers. The back had been dealing with migraines during training camp, but is now going to play. With a new contract under his belt, Mixon will look to continue his NFL rise. He is a solid […]

Diontae Johnson Holds No Injury Designation

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson holds no injury designation heading into Monday night's bout against the New York Giants. Johnson was dealing with a foot injury, but he practiced fully on Saturday and this makes it likely that he will suit up. The second-year player is now the WR2 on the team and also […]

K.J. Hamler Remains Questionable For Monday Night

Denver Broncos wide receiver K.J. Hamler remains questionable for Monday night's matchup against the Titans. The rookie has been dealing with a hamstring injury and the team could take a cautious approach by holding him out for Monday. The Penn State product figures to be the speedster on this offense when he can actually get […]

Darrynton Evans Ruled Out For Monday Night

Tennessee Titans rookie running back Darrynton Evans has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Broncos. Evans has been dealing with a hamstring injury and the slated backup to Derrick Henry will now get his next chance to play against the Jaguars in Week 2. Evans rushed for over 1,100 yards in two of […]

Corey Davis Questionable For Monday Night

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis is questionable heading into Monday night's matchup against the Denver Broncos. The wideout has been nursing a hamstring injury, but has still fully practiced in the last two days. This provides hope that Davis can play on Monday. He is the WR2 on the Titans and is looking to […]

Sophomore Slump: Second-Year Players That Will Decline

For some NFL players, the rookie year is for adjustment and getting acclimated to the NFL system. Many rookies thus don’t perform that well in fantasy because their roles are still being carved or they are simply too small. Nevertheless, there are some rookies who outperform their expectations by having a huge role in their […]

Deeper League Free Agent Pickups - Week 1

Ah, the waiver wire. It can be what you make of it: a place where you pick up the biggest steals of the week or just a place where players of no value reside, but you can check on them anyway in case you need to. I like to think of the waiver wire as […]

Curtis Samuel A Flex Piece For Week 1

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel should be considered a flex piece for the Week 1 matchup against the Raiders. The addition of Robby Anderson means Samuel will have to fight for targets and earn a bigger receiving role behind WR1 D.J. Moore. It remains to be seen who Teddy Bridgewater will target more out […]

Robby Anderson A Flex, At Best, In Week 1

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson should be considered a flex option, at best, in this week's matchup against the Raiders. With Anderson making his Carolina debut this week, it remains to be seen how large of a role he will have in this passing offense. The WR will have to fend off Curtis Samuel […]

D.J. Moore A Low-End WR1 In Week 1

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore is a low-end WR1 for this week's matchup against the Raiders. Moore is coming off a breakout second season in which he had 135 targets, 87 receptions, and 1,175 yards. The Raiders ranked in the middle in terms of points allowed to WRs last season, but Moore's huge role […]

Ian Thomas A TE2 In Week 1

Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas is a good TE2 for the Week 1 matchup against the Raiders. With Greg Olsen now gone, Thomas will become the TE1 of the Panthers and he has no competition for his role. It's important to note the TE has been dealing with a toe injury recently, but the […]

Panthers Defense Not A Streaming Option In Week 1

The Carolina Panthers Defense should not be started in this week's matchup against the Raiders. The Panthers had a lot of turnover on defense this past offseason with Luke Kuechly retiring and the losses of Mario Addison, Gerald McCoy, James Bradberry, Eric Reid, and Bruce Irvin, notably. Now, the infusion of new, young defensive players […]

Joey Slye Best Left On The Bench

Carolina Panthers kicker Joey Slye should be left on the bench for this week's matchup against the Raiders. Las Vegas ranked 19th in points allowed to kickers last season, making them a generally tough matchup for the position. Slye also went 25 of 32 on field goal attempts last season, good for 78.1 percent. It's […]

Christian McCaffrey Is A Must-Start In Week 1

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey is coming off a record fantasy season last year in which he finished with the second-most fantasy points of all time. The running back is truly elite in the rushing and passing game and is the focal point of the Carolina offense. Despite the Raiders being middle-tier in terms […]

Teddy Bridgewater Should Be Avoided In Week 1

Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater will be making his debut this week with the team. Bridgewater last played in 2019 with the New Orleans Saints in a total of nine games and started in five. Now in a new system, it's best to wait and see how the QB performs with a new set of […]

Justin Jackson (RB, LAC) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Melvin Gordon now gone, Austin Ekeler and Justin Jackson will head this Chargers backfield. While Jackson has dealt with a toe injury recently, his status for the opener was cleared up as coach Anthony Lynn specified the RB should be good to […]

O.J. Howard A TE2 For Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard is best viewed as a TE2 for the Week 1 matchup against the Saints. With the presence of Rob Gronkowski, Howard's fantasy value takes a hit, as he will not be the primary tight end target for quarterback Tom Brady. The Saints also proved to be a tough matchup […]

Tom Brady A QB1 For Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady will make his debut with a new team for the first time in his career, and it will be a heavyweight battle against a divisional opponent in the Saints. Brady has a plethora of weapons in Tampa, and this should be a high-scoring affair. When it comes to Brady, […]
