DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Thursday 10/13 - Week 7 Daily College Fantasy Football

We finally have a Thursday night college football slate again! We got a one-game warmup last night, but tonight features two really good games. DraftKings wasn't throwing games in here just to get a slate together. We get something that promises to be more interesting than the NFL slog going on tonight. Both games start […]

Teddy Bridgewater Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (concussion, pectoral) wasn't able to take part in practice on Wednesday. Bridgewater remains in the league's concussion protocol, and if he gets cleared before Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings, he will serve as the backup to rookie Skylar Thompson in his first career start. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returned to […]

The Return Of The King: Derrick Henry Isn't Ready To Give Up The Throne

Derrick Henry in today’s NFL is something of a square-peg-in-a-round-hole situation. It’s not really a true fit, but in this case, the peg is willing and able to smash and batter the hole into submission by any means necessary. That’s what King Henry has been doing to NFL defenses since transitioning to the full-time starting […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups and Free Agent Adds - All Positions

The bye weeks are finally here, so hitting the waiver wire may become a necessity for some who have managed to avoid it thus far.

FAAB Waiver Wire Bidding - Fantasy Football Pickups to Target for Week 6

Five weeks of football are in the books and I am even more confused about what roughing the passer is than ever before. We're seeing some backups step into prominent roles worth noting while others are thrust into the spotlight by injuries around them. Detroit, Houston, Las Vegas, and Tennessee are the first foursome on […]

The Cut List – Who to Drop for Week 6?

In recent seasons, it feels as though the NFL is becoming more and more pass-heavy with each passing – ha! – year. This 2022 NFL season has certainly given off some different vibes, however. Last year, there were nine quarterbacks who had a PPG average of 20 or more. Through five weeks, there are just […]

Mac Jones Listed As Limited Wednesday

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday with his ankle injury. Jones suffered a severe high-ankle sprain in Week 3 and has missed the last two games. The second-year signal-caller is making progress, but he should still be considered very questionable to play in Week 6 […]

Baker Mayfield Misses Practice Wednesday

Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle) was listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday. This shouldn't come as a surprise at all after he suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 5 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Mayfield will avoid surgery on his ankle and isn't being ruled out for Week 6 against […]

Jameis Winston Back At Practice Wednesday

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston (ankle, back) returned to practice on Wednesday after missing the last two games. Winston has been battling through four small fractures in his back in addition to an ankle injury, but the fact that he's back at practice to begin the week is a good sign that he could […]

Dak Prescott Won't Start In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) will not start in Week 6 on Sunday night against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles because he's not fully healthy yet. Cooper Rush's success in Prescott's absence has nothing to do with the fact that Prescott won't play this weekend. Prescott is scheduled to do some light throwing at practice […]

Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch: Breakout CFB Performances From Week 6

We have a new piece here at RotoBaller to highlight those college football players that are turning heads at the collegiate level that could be playing for your favorite team, and fantasy team, sometime very soon.

Carson Wentz Will Be Active Thursday Night

Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz (shoulder) will be active for the Thursday night game against the Chicago Bears this week, according to the team. Wentz was taken off the final injury report for Week 6 on Wednesday and will make the start on Thursday. He'll once again be without rookie receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) and […]

Aaron Rodgers Will Not Practice On Wednesday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (thumb) will not practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Matt LaFleur. However, fantasy managers don't need to worry about the veteran quarterback's status for Sunday. LaFleur told reports, "we don't have much concern as far as gameday." Rodgers is getting the day off from practice as a precaution […]

Zach Wilson A Decent Superflex Option In Week 6

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson is a decent Week 6 option in superflex formats. Wilson scored a rushing touchdown in Week 5 while passing for 210 yards. He might be forced to throw a bit more against the Packers, and with decent pass-catchers led by rookie Garrett Wilson, there's some touchdown upside with Wilson […]

Cowboys Preparing To Start Cooper Rush Against Eagles

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said the team is preparing for quarterback Cooper Rush to start in Week 6 against the 5-0 Philadelphia Eagles. Dak Prescott (thumb) is making progress from a fractured right thumb that he suffered in the season opener, and he will throw for the first time on the side at […]

Offensive Line Champs and Chumps - Fantasy Football Matchups To Target, Avoid (Week 6)

Six weeks are in the books and defenses continue to dominate to start the 2022 season. Nine games went under the opening projected scoring in Week 5. So far, at least eight games have gone under the opening scoring line every week of the season. There were once again some major injuries across offensive lines […]

Skylar Thompson Expected To Start Against Vikings

Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel announced on Wednesday that rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson is expected to start in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has already been ruled out, while Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) must pass through the league's concussion protocol this week and will do so with very limited practice time, […]

Tua Tagovailoa Won't Play In Week 6

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) will not play in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. McDaniel said the team is excited to have Tagovailoa back on the practice field on Wednesday. While fantasy managers still won't have Tagovailoa this weekend, it's good news that he's scheduled to throw […]

Panthers Not Ruling Baker Mayfield Out For Sunday Just Yet

Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle) suffered a high-ankle sprain and will avoid surgery. However, the Panthers are leaving the door open for him to return to action as soon as this week. The injury typically sidelines players for multiple weeks, but the organization noted that he played the entire second half of Sunday's game […]

Is Baker Mayfield Healthy Or Injured? Should I Pickup P.J. Walker for Fantasy Football?

The Carolina Panthers have struggled out of the gate in 2022. A 1-4 start led to the firing of Matt Rhule on Monday, making him the first head coach to be canned this season. While Carolina's defense has looked fine, the offense has faltered drastically, in part due to Baker Mayfield's slow start. The former […]

Jaguars Adding John Miller To Their Active Roster

The Jacksonville Jaguars are signing former Buffalo Bills and Carolina Panthers offensive guard John Miller to their active roster on Tuesday, according to his agent Drew Rosenhaus. Miller has yet to play in 2022 after starting 24 games for the Panthers over the last two seasons. He finished last season on Injured Reserve. When healthy, […]

Carson Wentz Limited Again Tuesday

Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz (shoulder) was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day on Tuesday in the team's walkthrough. Wentz is dealing with a right shoulder injury, but it doesn't appear to be serious enough to keep him from playing on a short week on Thursday night against the Chicago […]

Russell Wilson "Should Be Ready" For Week 6

Denver Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett said that quarterback Russell Wilson (shoulder) "should be ready to play" against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers in Week 6 on Monday Night Football despite his right shoulder injury.

Top Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 6: Daniel Jones, Justin Fields, Geno Smith, Kenny Pickett

Week 5 is nearly in the books and NFL offenses continue to struggle. Josh Allen paced all quarterbacks in passing yards (424) and passing touchdowns (four) in a rout of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Outside of that, the quarterback position was disappointing. Only three other quarterbacks (Carson Wentz, Tom Brady, and Kenny Pickett) threw for over […]
