NFL DFS Lineup Picks for FanDuel, DraftKings - Eagles vs Texans TNF Showdown

Welcome back, RotoBallers! We're back at it again with some Week 9 Thursday Night Football DFS lineups. We had a relatively ugly Thursday night game last week, as the Ravens took care of business against Tom Brady and the Bucs. While that was a relatively close game that came down to the wire, I can't […]

Derrick Henry, Ryan Tannehill Miss Practice Thursday

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (foot) and quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) did not take part in Thursday's practice. Per ESPN's Turron Davenport, Henry's absence was rest-related after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Henry's foot isn't expected to be an issue heading into Week 9 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night, […]

CFB DFS Rankings - Daily Fantasy College Football Rankings for Week 10 (Saturday 11/5)

Unlike pro sports and DFS, college football DFS can turn into the wild wild west from week to week. Injuries to players and weekly match-ups wildly change the value and production of players. That certainly appears to be the case this week as we have some less than elite players in elite spots, while also […]

NFL DFS Value Plays: Week 9 Bargain Bin for DraftKings, FanDuel and Yahoo Including Aaron Rodgers and Travis Etienne

Welcome to the Week 9 Sunday main slate edition of RotoBaller's NFL DFS Bargain Bin, where the goal is to touch on some potentially mispriced players across the industry that find themselves in favorable match-ups and/or suddenly expanded roles. Each week I’ll give you my thoughts on where there may be some value spots to […]

Zach Wilson Not A Recommended Option In Week 9

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson is not a recommended fantasy option in a Week 9 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Wilson had his first 300-yard passing game in Week 8 as the Jets went much more pass heavy after losing running back Breece Hall (knee) for the season. Still, Wilson made too many mistakes […]

Tyron Smith Still A Ways From A Possible Return

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said that left tackle Tyron Smith (knee, hamstring) is around three to four weeks away from starting his 21-day window to practice with the team. However, Jones is also cautious that could change. The 31-year-old has been on Injured Reserve since Aug. 31 after having surgery on his […]

Sam Ehlinger Faces Tough Test In Week 9

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger took over for veteran Matt Ryan as the Colts' starting quarterback in Week 9, throwing for 201 scoreless yards en route to a loss. This week, Ehlinger's new life as a starting quarterback won't get any easier, as he takes on the New England Patriots stout defense. Head coach Bill […]

Tape Tells All: Has Justin Fields Finally Arrived?

Welcome back to Tape Tells All, the weekly series where I look at film and data for something that happened in the NFL this week. This week, we're looking at the recent play of Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields. After a choppy start to his NFL career, is Fields finally positioned for success? He's now […]

Davis Mills A Risky Option In Week 9

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills should be mainly off the fantasy radar for Thursday night's contest against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles allow the fourth-fewest passing yards per game, while the Texans throw for an average of 196 yards per contest, which ranks 25th in the NFL. With Nico Collins (groin) out and Brandin Cooks […]

Coaching Matters: Offensive Outliers From Week 8

This is the eighth week of this series where I dive into offensive areas that will improve or decline based on past coaching trends in order to glean insight as to fantasy football value. In Week 8, we saw stat lines such as the Arizona Cardinals running back room combining for 30 rushing yards, the Philadelphia Eagles […]

Derek Carr Will Look To Bounce Back Against Jacksonville

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr completed 15-of-26 passes for 101 yards and an interception in Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Saints. The Raiders were shut out as the offense struggled to move the ball in last Sunday's loss against New Orleans. Carr will look to bounce back against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. […]

Jalen Hurts A Must-Start, Even In Tough Matchup

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts will travel to Houston to face the Texans on Thursday night. The third-year quarterback posted a career-high four touchdown passes last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, he now faces a Houston defense that allows the third-fewest fantasy points per game to the quarterback position. The Texans have been burned […]

No Timetable For Panthers To Activate Sam Darnold

Carolina Panthers interim head coach Steve Wilks said it's tough to say when the team will activate quarterback Sam Darnold (ankle), whose 21-day window ends next Tuesday. If the team doesn't activate him by then, he'll remain on Injured Reserve for the rest of the season. Wilks said that Darnold looks good, but he also […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Friday 11/4/22 - Week 10 Daily College Fantasy Football

We are up to three games again on our Friday night slate and two of them are conference tilts. We have the ACC and the Pac 12 on here, so there's some good football going on! The early games feature Duke climbing Chestnut Hill and the UConn team that just took out Boston College will […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports for QBs: Ryan Tannehill, Matt Ryan

We don't have super impactful quarterback injuries to monitor in Week 9, but with six teams on a bye, fantasy managers in two-QB or superflex leagues will surely have to keep up to date. Our fantasy football injury reports for quarterbacks as of Wednesday, November 2nd will give you the latest scoop on banged-up signal-callers […]

Ryan Tannehill Returns To Practice

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) returned to practice on Wednesday. Head coach Mike Vrabel said the veteran quarterback would practice on Wednesday. He added, "they'll continue to work through things and see how it goes." The former Texas A&M quarterback missed last week's 17-10 win over the Houston Texans because of the ankle injury […]

Marcus Mariota (QB, ATL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 9

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS:  Marcus Mariota has been a steady, if unspectacular, producer in this run-heavy Atlanta Falcons offense. Although it seems as though Atlanta head coach Arthur Smith would sometimes rather take a frying pan to the face than throw the football, Mariota has overcome […]

NFL Trade Deadline Winners and Losers for Fantasy Football - Nyheim Hines, Chase Claypool, Jameson Williams, Calvin Ridley

The NFL trade deadline has come and gone, and like always, nothing happened. Wait. I'm being told that actually a whole lot happened, as we ended up with the most active NFL trade deadline ever. A day that has just been kind of perfunctory forever actually meant something on Tuesday. Now that the trade deadline […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 9

We're onto Week 9 of the NFL season and after a week's worth of surprising studs and duds and a chaotic trade deadline, it's time to see which players are risers and which guys are falling in fantasy football value.  We now have a lot of good information we can use to help make decisions […]

Matt Ryan Won't Practice Again This Week

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan (shoulder) won't practice again this week due to his right shoulder injury. Injury issues aside, the Colts said last week that they have benched Ryan for the rest of the year in favor of Sam Ehlinger. It's highly likely that Ryan will be inactive for the Week 9 contest against […]

Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups and Free Agent Adds – All Positions

We are officially heading into the trade deadline week of the 2022 NFL season. The trade deadline has heated up in recent seasons as general managers have become more open to making moves and adjusting their rosters.

Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 9: Kadarius Toney, Jaylen Warren, Travis Homer, Marcus Mariota, Terrace Marshall

The NFL season keeps chugging along, and as fantasy managers, there's never a time to stop looking for deep league gems and potential late-season lotto-ticket stashes. These fantasy football waiver wire pickup suggestions are for fantasy managers in deep leagues of 14-teams or more or a higher number of bench spots than traditional fantasy leagues. […]

The Cut List – Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 9

Through seven weeks of NFL football, the 43.4 total points per game average is the lowest it has been since 2010. This, of course, is resulting in much lower fantasy matchups, but it's making what to do with the backend of our fantasy rosters an absolute nightmare. In recent years, fantasy managers seemed to be […]

Deshaun Watson Will Start When He's Eligible

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry said that suspended quarterback Deshaun Watson will start the first game that he's eligible on Dec. 4 at the Houston Texans, even though Jacoby Brissett has been "everything we hoped when we signed him." Watson will be available to fantasy managers starting in Week 13, so if you're in […]

Offensive Line Champs and Chumps - Fantasy Football Matchups To Target, Avoid (Week 9)

Week 8 provided a glimmer of hope for offensive football in 2022. Eight teams (a 2022 season high!) scored at least 30 points in Week 8. Collectively, offensive line play didn’t improve immensely, but we also dodged any significant long-term injuries for the first time in a long time. Unfortunately, Week 9 is one of […]

Malik Willis (QB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 9

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The quarterback position has been a real grab-bag for those combing the waiver wire in 2022, and Malik Willis is the most recent of rookies to make their debut start. In his first game against the Texans, Willis passed only ten times for […]

Giants Remain Undecided On The Future Of Daniel Jones

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is in the final year of his rookie deal, meaning the team will need to decide on his future entering the offseason. According to General Manager Joe Schoen, the team has yet to decide. When asked about the young signal caller, he stated, "there's nine games left, so it's […]

Eagles vs. Texans Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Miles Sanders, Dameon Pierce, DeVonta Smith, Brandin Cooks, Dallas Goedert, Davis Mills

From Thursday Night Football only hitting the over once in the first six weeks, we now have back-to-back high-scoring affairs on Thursday. Last week, this touchdown trend carried right into the weekend with some massive performances. A.J. Brown, D’Onta Foreman, Alvin Kamara, and Tony Pollard all got a turkey of touchdowns.  Thankfully, we get to […]
