Jarvis Landry A Low-End Flex In Week 5

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry salvaged his fantasy day in Week 4 with a 37-yard touchdown pass to Odell Beckham Jr. off of a trick play. Considering production like that isn't sustainable from a wide receiver, Landry will be hard to trust in a Week 5 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts have […]

Odell Beckham Jr. A WR2 Against Colts

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. had a huge three-touchdown game in a Week 4 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He may find it hard to repeat that performance against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5. Indy possesses one of the top pass defenses through the early portion of the schedule, ranking second in […]

Kareem Hunt A Low-End RB1 In Week 5

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt will operate as the team's lead back in a Week 5 home matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Hunt had been splitting backfield work with Nick Chubb through the first four weeks but Chubb will miss at least four-to-six weeks with an MCL sprain, leaving Hunt as the Browns' clear-cut […]

Baker Mayfield Draws Tough Week 5 Matchup

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield is coming off an impressive 49-38 road win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. He will look to help improve Cleveland's record to 4-1 when he faces off against the Indianapolis Colts at home in Week 5. This could end up as a low-scoring game as the Colts sport […]

David Moore (WR, SEA) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Usually, there's always one bonafide deep-threat in the Seattle Seahawks receiving core. This season, with the fire Russell Wilson is slinging each week, there is plenty of air to be shared among multiple parties. The crazy thing is, Tyler Lockett doesn't even crack […]

Zach Pascal (WR, IND) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Indianapolis Colts have made it through four weeks of the 2020 NFL season while dealing with many moving pieces, key injuries, and the first four games played by Philip Rivers for a team other than the Chargers in 16 years (wow, […]

J.A. Happ Struggles On Tuesday

New York Yankees starting pitcher J.A. Happ struggled against the Rays on Tuesday, allowing four runs over 2 2/3 innings after replacing starter Deivi Garcia in the second inning. The Yankees started Garcia in an attempt to give Happ a platoon advantage, but a pair of righties (Mike Zunino and Manuel Margot) took Happ deep […]

Adam Thielen Has Juicy Matchup Against Seahawks

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen will take on a Seahawks Defense that is allowing the most fantasy points to the wide receiver position through the first four games. Thielen has two 100-yard games under his belt this season and now will face a Seattle secondary that already has allowed seven different receivers to post […]

Justin Jefferson's Could Have Big Game In Week 5

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson will try and stay white-hot against a very vulnerable Seahawks secondary in Week 5. The rookie has emerged as a rising star the last two weeks, posting 278 yards and one touchdown during that span. He will take on a Seahawks Defense that has already allowed seven different receivers […]

Kevon Looney Expected To Have Bigger Role

Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney is expected to have a bigger role on the team next season. Head coach Steve Kerr mentioned that Looney is looking at 20-25 minutes per game for the 2020-2021 campaign. That is a fairly significant increase, but won't make a huge impact on his fantasy value. Looney has been […]

Lauri Markkanen Hopeful For Bounce-Back Season

Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen is hopeful that he can prove the doubters wrong next season. "My expectations are even higher than ever now, just going back to my fourth year and performing at a high level," said Markkanen. Former head coach Jim Boylen failed to get much out of his young core during his […]

Deivi Garcia Pulled After Only One Inning On Tuesday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Deivi Garcia lasted only one inning against the Rays on Tuesday, allowing one run before being relieved by starting pitcher J.A. Happ. Happ was up in the bullpen before any damage was done against Garcia, and it appears as though manager Aaron Boone used Garcia as a decoy starter to […]

Aron Baynes Could Leave Phoenix

Phoenix Suns center Aron Baynes could be headed elsewhere this offseason. The veteran was non-committal when asked about his future with the team. “I loved my time in Phoenix,” Baynes said. “I knew what it was coming in here and I was able to go out there and take advantage of the role that was […]

Dalvin Cook An RB1 Option In Week 5

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook will try and keep his excellent start to the season going against a surprisingly stout Seahawks Defense in Week 5. Seattle is breaking records for their ineptitude in the passing game but currently have allowed the fifth fewest fantasy points to opposing backs. That ranking should not scare fantasy […]

Kirk Cousins Has Tantalizing Matchup In Week 5

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins will have an excellent matchup heading into Week 5. Over his last two games, Cousins is averaging 255.5 passing yards a game with four touchdowns and will go up against a Seahawks Defense that is allowing the second most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Seattle is allowing an astounding […]

Isaiah Thomas Should Be Ready For Next Season

Washington Wizards guard Isaiah Thomas (hip) is expected to be ready for the beginning of the 2020-2021 season. He underwent surgery in May to repair his right hip that has been bothering him. He is heading into free agency after spending this season in Washington. Thomas is not the same player he used to be, […]

Jimmy Graham Lacking Targets Heading Into Week 5

Chicago Bears tight end Jimmy Graham will go up against a Buccaneers Defense in Week 5 that is allowing the 11th-fewest fantasy points to tight ends this season. Graham already has three touchdowns this season, but he only has 136 yards through four games. No matter who is at quarterback, the Bears offense continues to […]

Goran Dragic Officially Ruled Out For Game 4

Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (foot) won't suit up for Tuesday's Game 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. He tried to get up some shots pregame, but it was too painful. It doesn't look good for Dragic's chances of playing in this series, but consider him questionable for Game 5. Tyler Herro is expected […]

David Montgomery Has Difficult Matchup Against Bucs

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery will face a stout Buccaneers Defense as the two teams will lock horns to kick off Week 5 on Thursday night. It has been a lukewarm start to Montgomery's season as the Bears offensive line has taken steps backwards the last two weeks. Tampa Bay can be beaten in […]

Bam Adebayo Will Officially Return For Game 4

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (neck) is officially back in the starting five for Tuesday's Game 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. He has been sidelined since Game 1, so this is a big lift for Miami. It's unclear whether or not Adebayo will be limited, which makes him a risky DFS option. Kelly […]

Darnell Mooney A WR5 In Week 5

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney's fantasy stock is slowly on the rise heading into the team's matchup against the Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football in Week 5. The rookie continues to make plays in an offense that has struggled to score points for long stretches in games. The fifth-round pick saw eight targets in […]

Anthony Miller Too Risky To Trust For TNF

Chicago Bears wide receiver Anthony Miller will go up against a Buccaneers Defense on Thursday night that is allowing the 12th-fewest fantasy points to receivers this season. Miller's season thus far has been indicative of his career to this point; inconsistent. The third-year receiver has two game-winning touchdowns under his belt this season but failed […]

Allen Robinson II Key To Bears Week 5 Success

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II will try and stay hot against the Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football in Week 5. Over his last two games, Robinson has back-to-back 100-yard receiving games with touchdowns in each contest. But the Bears offense continues to be mired in a stagnant state and will face a Tampa […]

Nick Foles Looking To Bounce Back Against Bucs

Chicago Bears quarterback Nick Foles will try and produce a better performance on a short week against the Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football to kick off Week 5. The Bears offense was out of sorts the entire game against the Colts and the veteran passer simply did not look in rhythm. Foles will have another […]

Framber Valdez Limits A's To Two Runs In Win

Houston Astros starter Framber Valdez pitched seven quality innings as the Astros defeated the A's 5-2 in Game 2 of the ALDS. This marks two superb outings for Valdez, who came out of the bullpen to pitch five scoreless innings in the Wild Card Round. But the left-hander got the ball from the start in […]

George Springer Carries Astros To Game 2 Win

Houston Astros center fielder George Springer went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three runs batted in to carry the Astros to a 5-2 win over the A's in Game 2. October has belonged to Springer the past few seasons as the 30-year-old continues to dominate in the postseason. Springer hit a two-run bomb in […]
