Early 2018 Sleepers: TE

The early outlook for 2018 for fantasy football’s top tight ends is as bright as a summer’s day at the Jersey Shore. 2017 was a decent season for the tight end position in fantasy football. New England’s Rob Gronkowski only missed two games due to injury, Kansas City’s Travis Kelce had his second straight 1,000-yard […]

The AFC and NFC Conference championship games are here and so are the under-the-radar booms and busts!

This is also probably the last weekend fantasy football lovers will really get to enjoy […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Divisional Playoff Round

Some football fans and experts label the Divisional Playoff round the best weekend of NFL football of the year, and it might be the best weekend for playoff fantasy football as well. Many of fantasy football’s top performers in 2017 will be on the field this weekend. But while Tom Brady, Antonio Brown, Le’Veon Bell, […]

The NFL regular season might be over, but the under-the-radar booms and busts will not stop until a team wins the Super Bowl! The wacky Wild Card weekend is upon football fans and fantasy players. This gives fantasy football addicts four games to concentrate on and a larger player pool to work with than later […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 17

The final week of the NFL’s regular season is upon us, and whether you are in your fantasy league’s championship game or trying one last time to win thousands of dollars in a one-day contest, picking the right booms and busts is a must. My apologies for skipping out on last week’s column quicker than […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 15

If you are reading this column, you are either looking to make money in a one-day fantasy football contest, or you have successfully made the playoffs in your fantasy league. The playoffs are either beginning or are well underway in fantasy football leagues across the country and around the world. Picking the right booms and […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 14

If your fantasy team survived unlucky Week 13 (unlike many of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals), then you are gearing up for one of the biggest weeks of the fantasy football season. This is the last week of the regular season or the opening week of the playoffs in most fantasy football leagues. If […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 14

If your fantasy football league has no trade deadline or only has one once your playoffs start, consider that an early holiday present! Not many of you out there can still broker that blockbuster or fleece a fool that will set your fantasy squad up to roll through your league’s playoffs like Christian Okoye used […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 13

This is the week where fantasy football owners can expect to be unlucky. It is the unlucky 13th week of the NFL season! This could be the week your quarterback is stuck throwing in 60-mph winds, your receiver is stuck with a third-string signal caller tossing wobbly passes at his feet, or your kicker is […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 13

“Black Friday” and “Cyber Monday” may have come and gone, but that doesn’t mean there are no more sales for fantasy football players to take advantage of. If your fantasy league has no trading deadline or waits until the playoffs to institute one, you can still make that bodacious blockbuster that sets your team up […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 12

Can you believe there are only six weeks left in the NFL’s regular season? Two months ago, Mike Glennon and Brian Hoyer were starting quarterbacks, Dalvin Cook and Aaron Rodgers were healthy, and Denver and Green Bay looked like the two favorites to meet in the Super Bowl. A lot has changed since then, but […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 12

There is plenty to be thankful for this week, especially if your fantasy football league still allows you to make trades this late into the NFL season. If your fantasy league’s deadline has not come yet or does not have any deadline at all, by all means take advantage and make a trade or two […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 11

There is less room for error for fantasy football owners with each passing week. With under a month before the playoffs start in most fantasy football leagues, this is not the time to blow lineup decisions as badly as the Indianapolis Colts blow their draft choice decisions. The same goes for players of one-day contests […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 11

Time is running out on fantasy football owners looking to make that big blockbuster deal that turns their .500 team into a playoff contender or their second-place squad into a division champ. If the trade deadline in your fantasy league has not passed yet, it is fast approaching. You probably only have two-to-three weeks before […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 10

Oh, how time has flown by quicker than a Matthew Stafford pass. It feels like just last week that Kareem Hunt and Tyreek Hill were ravaging the New England Patriots defense, Adrian Peterson was on the New Orleans Saints and Aaron Rodgers was healthy. A lot has changed over the past two-plus months, but one […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 10

Fantasy football owners are running out of time if they want to retool their rosters. The NFL’s trading deadline passed last week, which means the trade deadline in many fantasy football leagues is coming up quicker than safeties crowding the box against L.A. Rams runner Todd Gurley. If you are looking to upgrade your roster […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 9

The fantasy football season is at the halfway mark. Mining for booms and busts is getting more important with each passing week. Another half-dozen teams are on bye this week, including the New England Patriots, Pittsburgh Steelers, Minnesota Vikings and San Diego Chargers, four teams loaded with fantasy superstars. So figuring out the right booms […]

Fantasy Football Buy Low and Sell High: Week 9

One half of the fantasy football season down, one half to go! For fantasy leagues that make Week 17 of the NFL schedule irrelevant, because too many star players sit out due to their games being meaningless, we are officially at the halfway point of the season. The trade deadline in many fantasy leagues might […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 8

Just because a half-dozen teams have a bye this week does not mean there will be fewer under-the-radar booms and busts. Six teams have the week off, so the pool of boom and bust candidates is a little shallower than usual. My column will not be any shorter, though, fantasy folks. There are still plenty […]

Fantasy Football Buy Low and Sell High: Week 8

Seven weeks down. Do you know if your fantasy football team is a contender or a pretender yet? We are almost at the halfway point of the NFL season. This is when fantasy owners must decide whether their teams have a good chance of qualifying for the fantasy postseason or if they should start from […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 7

Amari Cooper was a huge boom on Thursday night. Marshawn Lynch was a huge bust. The booms and busts are not letting up, especially the under-the-radar ones. With only two teams (Detroit and Houston) on bye this week, there are more under-the-radar boom/bust candidates than in previous weeks. Lucky me! Here are some under-the-radar booms […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 7

The waiver wire can only help your fantasy football team so much when your superstars fall by the waste side. Aaron Rodgers’ broken collarbone, Odell Beckham’s fractured ankle and Dalvin Cook’s torn ACL have given fantasy owners several reasons to reach for the antacids this year. So while the hits keep coming to fantasy rosters, […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts - Week 6

The under-the-radar booms and busts do not let up just because there are fewer players to choose from! With bye weeks and a mass of injuries ravaging rosters for fantasy football teams across the country, many lineup decisions are automatically made for fantasy owners because some of their players are not suiting up this weekend. […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 6

The New York Giants are not the only team running out of healthy players. The injuries are piling up in the NFL and the bye weeks are underway, so fantasy football owners will have to make trades to make sure they have enough bodies to fill out a lineup in the coming weeks. Now is […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts - Week 5

Let the booming and busting begin! Thursday night’s New England-Tampa Bay contest already had a couple under-the-radar booms (Doug Martin, Cameron Brate) and an under-the-radar bust (Dwayne Allen couldn’t catch a pass with Rob Gronkowski sidelined?). This trend will continue into Sunday, guaranteed. Here are some under-the-radar booms and busts for the fifth week of […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 5

Heading into Week 5, fantasy football owners should be ready to wheel and deal. We are now a month into the NFL season. Fantasy owners now know where they stand with their rosters and the strengths and weaknesses on their teams. That means they should be peppering owners in their leagues with trade offers and packaging […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 4

The booms and busts keep flying in faster than Tyreek Hill flies by cornerbacks! Week 4 of the NFL season is underway, and fantasy football owners watched Green Bay's Aaron Rodgers throw four touchdown passes Thursday night, while the Chicago Bears decided it would be better to make Jordan Howard's fantasy owners happy instead of […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 4

Welcome back, RotoBallers! The fantasy football stock exchange is currently in flux. Some of the NFL’s superstars are seeing their stocks plummet thanks to injuries or ineffectiveness, while other players’ values are at all-time highs due to surprise opportunities or just great games against bad defenses. This is the perfect time to wheel and deal […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts - Week 3

The surprises never stop coming, fantasy folks! Week 3 of the NFL season is underway with a bang after Los Angeles Rams tailback Todd Gurley helped his fantasy owners get off to good starts with 149 total yards and three touchdowns Thursday night (he should have scored five, by the way). Gurley was an above-the-radar boom, […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates for Week 3

It has been tougher for fantasy football owners to get yards and points out of their players this season than we expected. Defenses have been holding their own through the first two weeks of NFL action. Only five of the league’s 32 teams broke the 30-point plateau this past week, and only four did it […]
