Week 14 Tight End Outlooks: Gary Barnidge, Delanie Walker and Antonio Gates

Much like the kicker, the tight end can be one of the most maddening positions in fantasy football. Unless you have Rob Gronkowski or Greg Olsen, chances are you’re almost always limiting the amount of production you think your tight end will get you during the week. With that being said, there have been a […]

Week 14 Booms? Jarvis Landry, Allen Robinson and Jeremy Maclin

Jarvis Landry had an abysmal performance against a generous Baltimore Ravens secondary by finishing with just two catches for five yards in Week 13. It was Landry’s worst performance of the season by far, but the Dolphins resorted more to the ground game and utilized running backs Lamar Miller and Jay Ajayi for the majority […]

Fantasy Stock Down? Derek Carr, Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree

The Oakland Raiders’ offensive resurgence has been fun to watch this year, mostly because they haven’t had a solid offense since they went to the Super Bowl in 2003. Derek Carr has shown tremendous signs of improvement in his sophomore season, and he’s gotten some help with wide receivers Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree, as […]

Week 14 Booms: Lamar Miller and Alshon Jeffery

The first round of fantasy football playoffs has officially begun, and for those who were fortunate enough to extend their seasons past Week 13, knocking it out of the park during the first round of the postseason is extremely rewarding. With that in mind, let’s take a look at two guys who should reward their […]

Calm Your Expectations for DeSean Jackson and Davante Adams?

DeSean Jackson has been a bust since coming to Washington from Philadelphia. There's really no other way to put it. Between the injuries and the overall lack of production, Jackson hasn't been anything close to the No. 1 threat the Redskins were hoping for. Jackson's been back for two weeks now, but has only managed […]

Jordan Reed, Eric Ebron, Tyler Eifert and Travis Kelce Solid Tight End Options

Jordan Reed has been a touchdown machine for the Washington Redskins over the last three games. During that span, Reed has totaled 17 catches, five touchdowns and 41.9 fantasy points. The Redskins’ offense is still pretty inept despite that 47-point outburst last week. The New Orleans Saints defense is awful, so every big outing against […]

Lamar Miller, Latavius Murray and Devonta Freeman Will Have Great Performances in Week 11

If you can find a hotter running back than Lamar Miller when it comes to fantasy football, I’d love to see it. Chances are you can’t, because Miller has been an absolute monster since Dan Campbell took over as head coach of the Miami Dolphins. Miller has averaged more than 20 points per game over […]

Derek Carr, Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree Should Have Huge Games Against Lions

For the first time in a month, the fiery Oakland Raiders offense looked rather pedestrian after the Minnesota Vikings shut them down in Week 10. Fortunately for the Raiders, they’ll face a Detroit Lions team that isn’t very good at stopping anybody. Don’t be fooled by their appalling victory over the Green Bay Packers last […]

Delanie Walker, Kyle Rudolph, Travis Kelce and Gary Barnidge are Must-Starts This Week

Unless you have Rob Gronkowski or Greg Olsen on your team, chances are you've a hard time getting consistency from your tight end. Luckily, there are four guys who are sure to have solid outings this week. Delanie Walker exploded for 23.5 fantasy points against the New Orleans Saints in Week 9, and he was […]

Derek Carr and Michael Crabtree Poised for Big Games in Week 10

With the exception of Philip Rivers and Drew Brees, Derek Carr has been one of the NFL’s hottest quarterbacks. You read that right. The Oakland Raiders have found something special in Carr, and he’s been on an absolute tear since the Raiders returned from their bye week. Carr has thrown for 923 yards and 10 […]

Calm Your Expectations for Jonathan Stewart, Jeremy Langford and Chris Johnson?

Week 10 features some pretty favorable running back matchups, but that is not the case with these three guys. Jonathan Stewart has rejuvenated his season after three-straight quality outings, but he stumbled a bit against the Green Bay Packers in Week 9. After totaling 45 fantasy points in Weeks 6-8, Stewart only finished with 6.8 […]

Doug Martin, Justin Forsett and Antonio Andrews Solid Options This Week

After three straight weeks of 100-plus yard production, Doug Martin has fallen back to Earth as the Muscle Hamster’s only amassed 102 yards in his last two games. Martin was benched for part of his Week 9 matchup because he couldn’t hang on to the ball, so he needs to prove his worth against a […]

Philip Rivers and Antonio Gates Strong Options Against Bears

The San Diego Chargers were dealt a terrible blow when wide receiver Keenan Allen was put on injured reserve with a lacerated kidney earlier this week. Allen was the Chargers' best receiver, and his 792 yards ranked third in the NFL before he left early against Baltimore. Still, Philip Rivers will find a way to […]

Greg Olsen, Delanie Walker and Charles Clay are Solid Plays in Week 9

As we’ve discussed before, the tight end can be a maddening position. Unless you have Rob Gronkowski, chances are you’re hoping for maybe six or seven points from your tight end to consider it a successful week. Gronkowski is on a level of his own, so let’s take a look at three other tight ends […]

Doug Martin, Dion Lewis and Latavius Murray Have Great Matchups in Week 9

With a few first-rounders out for the year and six teams on a bye this week, the pickings are slim for quality running back play in Week 9. However, there are three running backs in particular who should have big days in their respective games. Doug Martin has been a monster over his last two […]

Eli Manning, Drew Brees and Ben Roethlisberger in for Big Games in Week 9

With a bye-heavy Week 9, let’s take a look at a few quarterbacks who are primed to thrive on Sunday. Eli Manning, for all of his faults, has put up monster numbers when he isn’t playing within the NFC East. In four games against divisional opponents, Manning is averaging just 10.6 fantasy points per game. […]

Delanie Walker, Ladarius Green, Gary Barnidge: Must-Starts for Week 8?

The tight end can be a maddening position in fantasy football, because Rob Gronkowski is basically the only one expected to have a big game every week. There are a few others who are classified as second-tier tight ends, but none of them produce the kind of numbers that knock it out of the park. […]

Philip Rivers, Keenan Allen Due for Monster Weeks on Sunday

The San Diego Chargers aren’t a very good football team, but Philip Rivers and Keenan Allen are playing at unreal levels this season. Blame it on the running game which has been a disaster, or the defense that has forced San Diego to play from behind in just about every game this season, but both […]

Todd Gurley and Mark Ingram Will Thrive in Week 8

Few running backs have had the type of success that Todd Gurley and Mark Ingram have had this season, as both former SEC backs have taken the league by storm. Gurley has played like the Rams hoped he would when they took him No. 10 overall in the draft, and Ingram has finally come into […]

Marshawn Lynch and Doug Martin: Week 8 Lineup Booms?

A pair of top-tier running backs come into Week 8 with some favorable matchups as fantasy football owners look for a strong push to the second half of their season. Both Marshawn Lynch and Doug Martin are workhorse running backs who should treat their owners nicely on Sunday. Martin has returned to his rookie form […]

Drew Brees and Derek Carr Should Thrive in Week 7

Both Drew Brees and Derek Carr come into Week 7 with extra rest, and both look poised to do well against their respective opponents. After a shoulder injury slowed him down early in the season, Brees has come back strong with three-straight 300-yard games. He's not lighting up the scoreboard like we're accustomed to seeing, […]

Lamar Miller to Shine, Dion Lewis to Struggle in Week 7

A pair of AFC East running backs enter Week 7 coming off polar opposite performances in Week 6. Lamar Miller, the Miami Dolphins running back who was non-existent during the first month of the season, bounced back in a big way against the Tennessee Titans, while New England Patriots' running back Dion Lewis barely touched […]

Don't Expect Much From Mike Evans and Vincent Jackson Against Redskins

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers enter Week 7 off their bye week and with a favorable matchup against the dysfunctional Washington Redskins. This is a game the Bucs have a strong possibility of winning, but fantasy owners shouldn't expect much production from wide receivers Mike Evans and Vincent Jackson. Let's start with Evans, who's been the […]

Philip Rivers, Keenan Allen Should Perform Well Against Oakland Raiders

Philip Rivers proved he wasn't human in Week 6 when he destroyed the Green Bay Packers for more than 500 yards and two touchdowns. Keenan Allen, who has been Rivers' favorite target this season, was the beneficiary of 14 of those completions for 157 yards in that game, and the two showed they have the […]

Arian Foster Ready to Break Out Against the Jaguars

After finishing with just 18 yards in his first game back in Week 4, Arian Foster rebounded for 118 total yards against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5. Foster struggled to get things going on the ground, but he did some serious damage in the passing game by finishing with 77 receiving yards. Now, Foster […]

Lamar Miller Should Bounce Back Against Titans

The Miami Dolphins had high hopes coming into this NFL season, but a 1-3 start and the dismissal of their head coach has them wondering where to go next. The lack of use of running back Lamar Miller has been a reason for Miami's struggles this season, and the team needs to get him going […]

Jeremy Maclin Will See a Heavy Workload Against the Minnesota Vikings

The Kansas City Chiefs were dealt an awful blow when running back Jamaal Charles tore his ACL against the Chicago Bears in Week 5. The Chiefs had high hopes coming into this season, but after a 1-4 start and now having to sideline their best player for the year, the optimism has since dampened in […]

Charles Clay Remains a Strong Tight End Play in Week 5

There haven't been many more tight ends who have enjoyed the success that Charles Clay has this season, and there's no reason to think he should slow down this week. Clay has quickly become Tyrod Taylor's favorite target so far, and a banged-up Sammy Watkins means Clay could see even more targets against the Tennessee […]

Matt Ryan in For a Big Game Against Redskins

The Atlanta Falcons are 4-0, and their offense strongly resembles the Falcons' offenses we were used to seeing when they first drafted Julio Jones. Matt Ryan has yet to really explode against any opponent this season, but that could all change on Sunday. Ryan is averaging 18 points per week in standard leagues, and this […]

Sell On Calvin Johnson This Week

Calvin Johnson is a once-in-a-generation receiver, and he's aimlessly wasting his career by playing for the Detroit Lions. It's a shame, really. Johnson was once an unguardable receiver who made defensive backs look foolish when he'd put his big body in place to snag would-be interceptions. Unfortunately for Megatron and fantasy owners who thought he'd […]
