Marshawn Lynch Not A Recommended Option

Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch returned last week to much fanfare. He even found his way into the end zone. But the veteran who was unsigned two weeks ago will now face an Eagles Defense that is 7th in the league in fantasy points allowed to running backs. What's worse for Lynch is that […]

Broken Hearts Club: Dealing With Underperforming Rookies in Dynasty

Every summer we become obsessed with rookies who are going to take the fantasy world by storm. We tune into preseason games or watch highlights and get excited by the Amir Abdullah big runs, the Mike Boone shiftiness, or the Deon Cain receptions. We all swear we see the rookie that is going to take […]

NCAA Prospects To Watch For Dynasty Leagues: Bowl Week Three

I hope everybody enjoyed the holidays. We're a day away from ending this decade and bringing in a new year. The NFL playoffs are set, the majority of the teams have turned their attention to the NFL Draft, and the bowl games are heating up. It's quite an exciting time of year. After two previous […]

Darius Slayton Ends Impressive Rookie Season on Flat Note

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Darius Slayton caught four passes for 50 yards in the season finale against the Eagles. The Auburn product saw the third-most targets on the team and remains Daniel Jones' preferred deep target, but his consistency has been hurt by his limited routes and the emergence of Kaden Smith. Slayton […]

Sterling Shepard Leads Team In Targets

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard led the team in targets, but he was only able to haul in three of his 11 passes for 39 yards. It was a disappointing output against an Eagles' depleted secondary, but Shepard has remained the Giants top target during all of his healthy games this season. The […]

Golden Tate Catches Giants Only Receiving Touchdown

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate hauled in the team's lone passing touchdown on Sunday, finishing with five catches for 68 yards. Tate saw fewer targets than the Giants' other wide receivers, but he has built up a good rapport with Daniel Jones and sees the higher percentage targets. The Giants will have a […]

Kaden Smith Leads Giants In Receiving

New York Giants' first-year tight end Kaden Smith caught eight of his team-leading 11 targets for a game-high 98 yards in Sunday's loss. Claimed off waivers from the 49ers, Smith has been a revelation for the Giants and has likely played his way into the team's future plans at the expense of Rhett Ellison, who […]

Saquon Barkley Ends Season On a High Note

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley continued his hot streak on Sunday, rushing for 92 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries. 68 of those yards came on his one touchdown run, but the game-breaking ability has been lacking for much of this season so it was good to see it back. Barkley remains […]

Daniel Jones Inconsistent In Loss

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones had an up-and-down game in Sunday's season-finale loss to the Eagles. The rookie threw for 301 yards on 28 of 47 passing while throwing one touchdown and one interception. He also took four sacks and fumbled the ball twice, losing one of them. Jones has had some moments of […]

Tommy Sweeney Leads Bills Tight Ends

Buffalo Bills tight end Tommy Sweeney was the Bills' most effective tight end on Sunday, catching all five of his targets for 76 yards. Sweeney showed good hands and solid athleticism but did make a critical rookie mistake by failing to go out of bounds on his reception late in the fourth quarter with the […]

Isaiah McKenzie Shows Typical Versatility

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie was active for the Bills on Sunday, securing two of his five targets for five yards and rushing for 30 yards on two carries. McKenzie filled the Cole Beasley role in the offense, but the rain kept him from securing a few of his extra targets. He will remain […]

Duke Williams Leads Bills In Receiving

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Duke Williams led the team in receiving, catching six passes for 108 yards. The former CFL standout and fan favorite dropped a few passes, but he showed his typical strength and physicality after the catch and helped the Bills move the chains on a few drives. He’s still too inconsistent to […]

T.J. Yeldon Carries The Load For Bills In Second Half

Buffalo Bills running back T.J. Yeldon ran well in relief of Frank Gore, frequently having to dodge and leap over defenders in the backfield behind the Bills' back-up offensive line. His final stat line was seven carries for 18 yards with three catches for 24 yards, but the stats don’t do justice to the juice […]

Frank Gore Only Plays One Half

Buffalo Bills running back Frank Gore played the first half on Sunday, carrying the ball six times for 26 yards and surprisingly catching three passes for 16 yards. Gore ran hard, as is typical, and was more effective than he’d been in weeks. He should remain the Bills short-yardage and change-of-pace back behind rookie Devin […]

Matt Barkley Struggles In Relief

Buffalo Bills quarterback Matt Barkley struggled in relief of Josh Allen on Sunday, completing 18 of 35 passes for 232 yards and two interceptions in a 13-6 loss to the Jets. Barkley announced himself to Bills fans last year by trouncing the Jets when Allen was out with an injury. He didn’t make the same […]

Josh Allen Plays Two Drives

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen played only two series on Sunday, completing three of five passes for five yards. Sean McDermott said all week that he wanted Josh Allen to go through a normal week of preparation and routine as the second-year player gets ready for his first playoff game. Nothing to see here.

Darius Slayton Healthy For Sunday

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton is back to full strength and ready to go for Sunday's showdown against the Eagles. Slayton appears to be in a strong spot as the Giants' top deep threat against an Eagles Defense that has been torched through the air; however, he does come with some risk. The […]

Sterling Shepard Gets Good Matchup On Sunday

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard gets a good matchup on Sunday against an Eagles Defense that ranks 28th in the league in points allowed to wide receivers over the last six weeks. Shepard has seen a minimum of six targets in each of his last five games, which is a safe floor in […]

Kaden Smith Gets Another Start on Sunday

New York Giants tight end Kaden Smith will get another start on Sunday with Rhett Ellison (concussion) being ruled out. The Eagles pose a difficult match-up as they're the 4th best team in PPR points allowed to tight ends over the last six weeks. However, the game should be a shootout, so Smith could find […]

Golden Tate In Prime Spot On Sunday

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate appears to be in a potential blow-up spot on Sunday against an Eagles Defense that ranks 28th in PPR points allowed to wide receivers over the last six weeks. Tate benefited from the return of Daniel Jones last week, leading the team with 11 targets. The slot receiver […]

Saquon Barkley In Tough Spot On Sunday

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley might see his streak of strong games come to an end on Sunday when the Giants take on the Eagles. Philadelphia's defense ranks 7th in PPR points allowed to the running backs over the last six weeks, and Barkley only saw four targets last week in Daniel Jones' […]

Daniel Jones Hopes To End Season On High Note

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones will look to build off his Week 16 explosion and end his rookie season on a high note when he takes on the Eagles on Sunday. With the Eagles needing a win to make the playoffs, this game has a strong likelihood to turn into a shootout, which would […]

NCAA Prospects To Watch For Dynasty Leagues: Bowl Week Two

Hope everybody has had a great holiday season so far. Last week we began going through the bowl games and looking at players who could be fantasy factors in the 2020 NFL season. This edition will breakdown all games post-Christmas but before New Year's Eve, and then we'll finish up with a Post-New Years edition […]

Darius Slayton Leaves Game Early With Knee Injury

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton finished Sunday with zero catches after leaving early with a knee injury. The rookie wide receiver tried to play through it but just wasn't able to. The Auburn product emerged as a verifiable starting receiver in the NFL, so the Giants may be cautious with him in a […]

Cody Latimer Resurfaces For Giants

New York Giants wide receiver Cody Latimer came back from the sidelines on Sunday after Darius Slayton left the game early with an injury. Latimer seemed to be a focal point for Daniel Jones on a few drives, finishing with five catches for 44 yards and a touchdown. If Slayton is forced to miss next […]

Sterling Shepard Finds End Zone Again

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard found his way to the end zone again on Sunday, finishing with six catches for 76 yards and the aforementioned touchdown. He's missed a few games with concussions, but Shepard has been a productive number one wide receiver for the Giants, dispelling any notion that he can't play […]

Golden Tate Leads Giants In Receiving On Sunday

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate paced the Giants' passing attack on Sunday, finishing with six catches on 11 targets for 96 yards. Tate has had an up and down first season with the Giants - filled with injuries and a suspension - but he has produced when he's on the field and is […]

Kaden Smith Finds End Zone Twice

New York Giants tight end Kaden Smith caught six of his eight targets for 35 yards and two touchdowns, including the game-winner in overtime. Smith has benefited from late-season injuries to Evan Engram (foot) and Rhett Ellison (concussion). He doesn't figure to hold any future value for the Giants, but he could be a sneaky […]

Saquon Barkley Keeps Hot Streak Going

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley kept his hot streak going by destroying the Redskins on Sunday for 189 yards and a touchdown on the ground, plus four catches for 90 yards and a touchdown through the air. The second-year back finally looks healthy after an early season ankle injury, and he's teaming with […]

Daniel Jones Flames Redskins

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones returned from his ankle injury with fury on Sunday, torching the Redskins for 352 yards and five touchdowns in an overtime win. The rookie carved up the Washington secondary at will, completing passes to six different receivers and not committing any turnovers (although he did almost lose a fumble). […]
