Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch - Marquise Brown, Devin Singletary, Hunter Renfrow
Week 9 of the fantasy football season is banging on your front door with the force of a thousand fists. Hopefully, you're at a point in your win-loss record where you feel comfortable letting it in. Now, let's all take a seat on the couch as we once again turn our focus to the 2019 draft […]
Week 9 DFS Cash Game Value Plays For FanDuel And DraftKings
Week 9 brings with it a reduced featured slate, as not only do we have four teams on a bye, but also an early kickoff in London. Therefore, we are left with a 10-game slate, reducing our options. However, there are still plenty of values to be found for our cash game lineups. This is […]
Inside the Tent - Week 9 NFL Injury Insight
At RotoBaller, we can't stress enough the importance of keeping up with injuries and playing your best lineup week after week. Players are going to get injured, that's an unavoidable fact. What's avoidable though is making the wrong roster decisions based on the injuries surrounding your fantasy squad. If you want to dominate your leagues […]
Mason Rudolph Set For Matchup With Colts
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph will make his second start since returning from a concussion against the Colts on Sunday. Rudolph played decent against the Dolphins on Monday night by finishing with 251 yards and two touchdowns (one interception) on 20-for-36 passing. While the Colts Defense poses more of a challenge than his Week 8 […]
Kyle Allen Hopes To Move Past Week 8 Performance
Carolina Panthers quarterback Kyle Allen had a miserable Week 8 performance against San Francisco but will attempt to turn things around against Tennessee on Sunday. After compiling seven touchdowns and no picks throughout his first four starts in place of Cam Newton (foot), the 23-year-old was manhandled by a 49ers Defense that forced him to […]
Russell Wilson A Top-Flight Play
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has been the third-best quarterback in fantasy the last five weeks. He also has a fabulous matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this week to do more damage. Wilson has averaged 245.2 passing yards and two touchdowns per game through the air the last five games. He only threw one […]
Philip Rivers Not Quite A QB1
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers has a midrange matchup against the Green Bay Packers in Week 9. Rivers has been midrange himself as he ranks 15th at the position in fantasy points the last five weeks. His weapons are relatively healthy, and there's no reason that Rivers can't succeed in the matchup. He just […]
Deshaun Watson Could Have Letdown Game
Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson struggled in Week 2 when the Texans hosted the Jacksonville Jaguars, completing a season-low 55 percent of his passes for 159 yards and no touchdowns. On Sunday, Houston faces the Jaguars in London in what could be a tough outing for Watson. While his highs this year have been impressive, […]
Gardner Minshew Should Have Solid Week 9
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew is coming off the first three-touchdown game of his NFL career in Week 8 and will look to continue throwing the ball well in London against the Texans on Sunday. Houston allows the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks and have given up 18 passing touchdowns with just […]
Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Jones Removed From Final Injury Report
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) and running back Aaron Jones (shoulder) were both full participants in Friday's practice. Neither of their injuries appeared to be serious-though it's nice to see both players removed from the final injury report. Rodgers is a QB1 but could have added upside if wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) […]
Tom Brady Gets First True Test Against Ravens
New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and Co. will get their first true test of the season against the Ravens in Week 9. Brady will face a feisty Ravens Defense that has allowed the 14th fewest fantasy points to passers this season. Baltimore has held opposing quarterbacks to only seven touchdown passes all season, including […]
Jets Not Optimistic On Chris Herndon IV, Kelvin Beachum
New York Jets head coach Adam Gase isn't optimistic that tight end Chris Herndon IV (hamstring) and left tackle Kelvin Beachum (ankle) will be able to play in Week 9 against the Dolphins. Despite getting in limited practices, it appears that Herndon just isn't quite ready. It's a shame, too, as he would've had TE1 […]
Patrick Mahomes Listed As Questionable
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Patrick Mahomes (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 9 against the Vikings. Mahomes continues to practice on a limited basis, but Week 10 is the better target date for his return. Expect Matt Moore to get his second straight start this Sunday. While he was pretty solid in Week […]
Joe Flacco Placed On IR, Season Over
The Denver Broncos placed quarterback Joe Flacco (neck) on season-ending Injured Reserve on Friday, according to a source. Backup Brandon Allen will start in Week 9 against the Browns, with the team promoting Brett Rypien from the practice squad. The 34-year-old Flacco was a failed experiment for Denver, as he looked done in 2019. He […]
Case Keenum, Chris Thompson, Vernon Davis Ruled Out
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum (concussion), running back Chris Thompson (toe) and tight end Vernon Davis (concussion) have all been ruled out for Week 9 against the Bills. Rookie Dwayne Haskins will make his first career start under center, but he's a last-gasp QB2 for those desperate owners against a strong Bills Defense on the […]
Dwayne Haskins Will Make First Start Sunday
Washington Redskins rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins will make his first career start in Week 9 against the Bills with Case Keenum (concussion) sidelined. It's the worst possible matchup for Haskins to get in his starting debut in the NFL. It's on the road against a very strong defense that has been limiting opposing signal-callers for […]
Welcome Back, Matthew Stafford
The NFC North could be the best division in the league. Not only in terms of overall competitiveness, but in how terrifying each defense has been. The Bears, Packers and of course the Vikings have legit pass defenses in 2019. The best of the bunch is the Vikings, who currently rank sixth in team defense. […]
Jacksonville's Confusing Pass Offense
Outside of Leonard Fournette, it has been hard to consistently trust a fantasy option on Jacksonville's offense. Nick Foles broke his collarbone in Week 1, thrusting sixth-round rookie Gardner Minshew II into the starting lineup. The tight end position is simply not producing numbers. We've seen the likes of James O'Shaughnessy and Geoff Swaim attempt […]
Is It Time To Bail On The Bears?
In what seems to happen to a number of teams in the league, the Chicago Bears massively exceeded expectations last season. Their defense was firing and stopping teams momentum, and the offense was able to sustain drives. Hell Mitch Trubisky even looked like a competent quarterback! They won the highly competitive NFC North division before […]
Cam Newton's Foot Isn't Improving
Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton's (foot) sprained foot is not getting better despite not playing since mid-September, and he hasn't done more than rehab on the side during practices. He will travel to Green Bay to visit with Dr. Robert Anderson to learn why his condition isn't improving, according to a source. Returning to action […]
Baker Mayfield a Low-Upside Option in Week 9
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield draws a tough road matchup against the Denver Broncos in Week 9. Mayfield hasn't met expectations this season, throwing for just 1,690 yards, six touchdowns, and 12 interceptions through seven games. He has tossed at least one pick in each of his starts while failing to pass for multiple touchdowns […]
Kyler Murray Solid In Loss
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray was 17-for-24 for 241 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions against the San Francisco 49ers Thursday night. He also rushed five times for 34 yards. It was his fifth straight game without an interception. Murray is avoiding mistakes, but he has just nine touchdown passes in as many games. The […]
Jimmy Garoppolo Lights It Up
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo carved up the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9, passing for 317 yards and four touchdowns in a victory. After game managing all season, Garoppolo surpassed 300 yards for the first time against a predictably awful Cards defense, posting a season-best passer rating of 136.9. Jimmy G kept the chains […]

Kirk Cousins Is A Low-End QB1 In Week 9
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has been absolutely on fire for four weeks straight, completing over 79% of his passes and compiling an impressive 10/1 TD/INT rate in wins over the Giants, Eagles, Lions, and Redskins. The Kansas City Chiefs await in Week 9 and represent a slight step up defensively, but they are banged […]

Case Keenum Not Ruled Out For Week 9
Washington Redskins interim head coach Bill Callahan said that quarterback Case Keenum (concussion) remains in the concussion protocol, but it's still possible that he plays in Week 9 against the Bills if he feels better on Friday. Keenum has been taking third-team repetitions at practice behind rookie Dwayne Haskins and Colt McCoy. It's more of […]
Ryan Tannehill (QB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After being traded to the Tennessee Titans this past off-season, Ryan Tannehill has had his chance to show what he can do the last few weeks. The Titans benched Marcus Mariota and Tannehill played about half of the game in Week 6 against […]
Sam Darnold (QB, NYJ) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After a rough start to the 2019 NFL Season, Sam Darnold has been a bit disappointing for fantasy owners. There’s a good chance that he’s a waiver wire option, even in Superflex and 2QB leagues. He’s missed three games this season, played in […]
