Geno Smith Is Worth a Shot in Deep Leagues

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues or 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Oh boy, here I go again. I've always been interested in Geno Smith's potential fantasy value.

Week 9 Waiver Wire & QB Streamers: Tyrod Taylor, Jay Cutler & Kirk Cousins

Week 8 was another perfect week, kinda. Marcus Mariota obviously did not start so he was thrown out. Otherwise it was a 2/2 day. Alex Smith only threw for 145 yards but he had two passing touchdowns and 78 rush yards and another score on the ground. That resulted in a huge fantasy day: Smith’s […]
