Dwayne Haskins Seeing First-Team Reps In Practice
Washington Redskins rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins has been seeing first-team repetitions in practice the last two days with Case Keenum (concussion) questionable to play in Week 9 against the Bills. Colts McCoy has been working with the second team. There's a real chance that Keenum is forced to sit out this weekend, which would put […]
Fantasy Football Booms, Busts - Derek Carr, DeVante Parker, Ryan Tannehill
The NFL trade deadline was a yawn. Let’s hope the rest of your fantasy football season isn’t. Fantasy footballers have to contend with another four-team bye week that takes all of the Los Angeles Rams, New Orleans Saints, Cincinnati Bengals and Atlanta Falcons out of play. But even with a slightly smaller player pool to […]
Second-Half Surgers - Upcoming Favorable Schedules
The general gist of this entire article is that matchups matter and there are several teams that have faced either a gauntlet of defenses through the first half of the season and will see a much lighter second half or have dealt with touchdown variance that will regress. Sometimes players/teams get unlucky and that is […]
Buys and Sells - The King's Trade Targets for Week 9
Many fantasy football trades get rejected or talks break off because the team making offers does not think things through. The owner sending the offer usually thinks about only what they want and need and how little they may be able to part with. Such offers usually consist of one owner simply deciding on the […]
Aaron Rodgers Limited On Wednesday
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) was limited in practice Wednesday, though it doesn't sound like anything too serious. Expect the 35-year-old to play in Week 9. Rodgers has thrown for at least 300 yards and three touchdowns in his last two games, as he's seemingly found his stride. He'll face the Los Angeles […]
Josh Allen Is A Low-End QB1 Option In Week 9
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw for just 169 yards in Week 8, but he's in a good place for a bounce-back game this week with Washington coming to town. The Redskins allow about 378 yards of total offense per game and Allen should be able to manage somewhere between 250 and 300 combined passing […]

Jameis Winston A Low-End QB1 In Week 9
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston has thrown seven interceptions over the past two games, so a shaky Seattle Seahawks secondary may just be exactly what he needs to get back on track. The fifth-year signal-caller has performed as expected so far this season, throwing interceptions in all but two games, and that may be […]
Matthew Stafford A Must-Start In Week 9
Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford has been on a tear since failing to find the end zone against the Green Bay Packers in Week 6. The veteran signal-caller has thrown for 706 yards and seven scores over the Lions last two games, and with the Raiders non-existent pass defense on deck for Week 9 he […]
Thursday Night Football Matchups Analysis - Week 9
The Minnesota Vikings are becoming a true contender. Even though the Vikings air raid looked strong with quarterback Kirk Cousins throwing for 285 passing yards and wideout Stefon Diggs eclipsing the 100 receiving yard mark in a 19-9 win over the Washington Redskins, running back Dalvin Cook stole the show with 171 total yards and […]
FanDuel TNF DFS Lineup Picks: Daily Fantasy Football for Week 9
Welcome to Week 9 of the 2019 NFL season. We kick this week off with a fun game in the University of Phoenix between the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals. The 49ers are huge away favorites, sitting at -10 with a 43 total. The biggest news is both David Johnson and Chase Edmonds likely […]
Jacoby Brissett Has A Good Matchup In Week 9
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been a pleasant surprise this year. Through seven games, he's the QB19 on the year, and that's with his bye week factored in. He's just one 18-point outing from being a top-10 quarterback. In Week 9, he catches a Pittsburgh Steelers team that is riding high after their Week […]
Derek Carr A Viable Streamer For Week 9
Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will be on the Week 9 streaming radar with a home date versus the Detroit Lions this Sunday. After reaching season bests in fantasy production over the last two weeks, Carr has a great chance to keep the trend going versus a Lions Defense that has surrendered the seventh most […]
Kyler Murray Has Alarming Matchup
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray hasn't done much the last couple of weeks, and the road ahead of him doesn't get any easier. The San Francisco 49ers are the best team against the position over the last five weeks. The Niners have allowed a miniscule 103.3 passing yards per game during that stretch. They haven't […]
Patrick Mahomes A Limited Participant
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Mahomes has made good progress from a dislocated kneecap, but he was inactive last week and isn't a lock to return in Week 9 against the Vikings. Week 10 is the more realistic target date for the superstar quarterback, but […]
Tom Brady, Julian Edelman, Rex Burkhead Limited
New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (shoulder), wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest, shoulder) and running back Rex Burkhead (foot) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. All three players should be fine for Week 9 against the Ravens on Sunday night, so there's not much to see here. New England faces their most difficult test […]
Cam Newton, Curtis Samuel Not Practicing
Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (foot) and wide receiver Curtis Samuel (shoulder) are not practicing on Wednesday. Newton continues to rehab and won't make his return in Week 9 against the Titans. He could be back for Week 10 against the Packers, however, but it remains to be seen how effective he'll be if he's […]
Mitch Trubisky's Season On The Line In Week 9
Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky's season, and perhaps career, will be on the line this Sunday against the Eagles in Week 9. The Bears are 3-4 and cannot afford to lose many more games if they have plans on keeping up in the NFC playoff race. Furthermore, Trubisky's season has gone so poorly that his […]
Daniel Jones Not Streamable On Sunday
New York Giants starting quarterback Daniel Jones is off the streaming radar in single-quarterback leagues when he takes on the Cowboys on Monday. The rookie beat up on a depleted Lions secondary last week, but he'll find the sledding much tougher this week. The Cowboys come into the game giving up the fifth-fewest fantasy points […]
Offensive Line Rankings Analysis: Week 9
Week 8 is the mid-point of the fantasy season, where owners are either turning one eye to the playoffs or looking over their shoulder as they hope to avoid finishing last in their league. More importantly to our article today, we now have strong evidence of the ability of the offensive lines and the impact […]
Sam Darnold Practicing In Full
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (thumb) will practice in full on Wednesday with a splint on his left thumb. Darnold was injured in Week 8 but will play this Sunday in a great matchup with the winless Dolphins. The injury is to his non-throwing hand, so it shouldn't have a big effect on his […]
Dak Prescott a Top Option for Week 9
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is one of the top-five options at the position in Week 9. The Cowboys will hit the road for a Monday Night Football matchup against the New York Giants and their very generous defense. Prescott is being ranked somewhere from QB3-6 for this one, and should have a strong floor […]
Carson Wentz Slips Out of the QB1 Ranks for Week 9
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz has fallen out of the fantasy QB1 ranks for Week 9. The Eagles will host the Chicago Bears and their fearsome pass defense. With the Eagles really getting the running game going in Week 8, Wentz only completed 17 passes for 172 yards. A similar performance might be in store […]
Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Devin Singletary, Robert Woods, Odell Beckham
Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]
The Tape Tells All - Ryan Tannehill Fantasy Analysis
Welcome to another edition of "The Tape Tells All," where I break down some film of an NFL's player performance and try to draw some fantasy football conclusions from that film. This week, I'm looking at Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who took over for Marcus Mariota and has quickly breathed some life into the […]
The Forthcoming Resurrection of Cam Newton
After Kyle Allen’s 4-0 start as the starting quarterback for the Carolina Panthers, many fans and analysts were clamoring for his permanent placement atop the depth chart. They believed Cam Newton was essentially finished and less efficient than Allen when he was actually on the field. Then Allen imploded against a tough San Francisco defense […]
Jimmy Garoppolo Fine Outside The Limelight
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is fine with his role amidst the Niners undefeated start. Entering Week 9 against the Arizona Cardinals, the passing attack has become a tertiary thought to the team’s dominant defense and run game. Garoppolo hasn’t helped himself, committing nine turnovers in seven contests. Jimmy G should continue playing game […]
FAAB Bidding - Week 9 Waiver Wire Targets
Assisting our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, this column focuses on suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB). As a caveat, these prices do not by any means indicate how much these free agent players will […]
Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
As we enter the second half of the fantasy regular season, all eyes will be on the news wire as the trade deadline approaches. We already recommended some players to add/stash/acquire ahead of October 29, so hopefully you were able to take action this past week. If not, don't worry - there are still plenty of […]
