Detroit Lions rookie tight end T.J. Hockenson continued his disappointing fantasy season, hauling in just three catches for 47 yards in the Lions Week 10 loss to the Bears.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones was able to haul in five catches for 77 yards against the Bears in Week 10.

Joseph Magazzinich 5 years agoTy Johnson Not A Recommended Week 10 Option
Detroit Lions running back Ty Johnson has seriously disappointed fantasy owners who likely dropped a good portion of their FAAB on him just two weeks ago, and more of the same should be expected with the Chicago Bears on deck in Week 10. Johnson has managed just 74 yards on 20 touches in the two […]

Detroit Lions running back J.D. McKissic quickly went from being an afterthought to what could be the best fantasy option in the Lions backfield. McKissic won't win any leagues, but his continued involvement in the passing game has warranted that fantasy owners have him on their radar at the least. McKissic has seen at least […]
Joseph Magazzinich 5 years agoMarvin Jones On The WR3 Map In Week 10
Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones will look to keep taking advantage of the Lions recent shift to more of an aerial approach in a matchup against the Chicago Bears in Week 10.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay has eclipsed the 100-yard receiving mark in back-to-back games for the first time this season and will look to continue that streak in Week 10 with a matchup against the Chicago Bears on deck.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston will return home this week to play the Arizona Cardinals in what should be a high-scoring affair.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber posted a measly 15 yards on four carries in the Bucs Week 9 loss to the Seahawks. Barber, who is usually in a timeshare with Ronald Jones II, took a major back seat in this one, seeing 16 fewer touches on the day. The unpredictability of the Bucs […]

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson caught three of seven targets for 56 yards in the Lions Week 9 loss to the Raiders.

Joseph Magazzinich 5 years agoMarvin Jones Runs All Over Porous Raiders Secondary
Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones rebounded very nicely in Week 9 after a disappointing Week 8 performance. The veteran wide receiver caught 8-of-10 targets for 126 yards and one touchdown on a day where he was seemingly able to do whatever he wanted. Jones will have his weeks where he is the 1B to […]

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay hauled in four of seven targets for 132 yards and one touchdown in the Lions loss to the Raiders in Week 9.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston has thrown seven interceptions over the past two games, so a shaky Seattle Seahawks secondary may just be exactly what he needs to get back on track.

Joseph Magazzinich 5 years agoDanny Amendola A High-End Flex Option In Week 9
Detroit Lions wide receiver Danny Amendola will look to keep the momentum going in Week 9 in a matchup against the Oakland Raiders.

More opportunities should be made available to Amendola with […]
Joseph Magazzinich 5 years agoTra Carson A Risky Week 9 Start
Detroit Lions running back Tra Carson led the Lions backfield in touches just one week after being claimed off of waivers and will look to establish himself in Week 9 in a matchup against the Oakland Raiders.

Joseph Magazzinich 5 years agoPeyton Barber Not An Appealing Week 9 Option
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber and the Bucs will travel to Seattle in Week 9 to face the Seahawks.

Joseph Magazzinich 5 years agoTy Johnson A Shaky Week 9 Option
Detroit Lions running back Ty Johnson greatly disappointed fantasy owners in Week 8, especially those who used a decent portion of their FAAB to grab him, and things aren't likely to change this week against a Raiders Defense that is currently tied for fifth in yards per carry allowed.

Joseph Magazzinich 5 years agoPeyton Barber Not A Recommended Week 8 Start
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber faces a solid Tennessee Titans squad in Week 8. Barber has established himself through the first seven weeks of the season as borderline unstartable in any fantasy format and should be treated as such.
