Ryan Fitzpatrick Removed From Injury Report

Buccaneers quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick (knee) has been removed from the injury report and is clear to play Monday. There really wasn't much concern as to Fitzpatrick's availability as this was likely just a formality for the vet. Monday's matchup against Pittsburgh is quite favorable for the Magic Man as they have been porous since losing […]

Case Keenum Not Worth The Risk In Week 3

The Denver Broncos head to Baltimore to face a Ravens defense that has allowed the fewest yards per pass attempt (4.47) through the first two weeks. The Ravens secondary was abused by quarterback Andy Dalton and the Cincinnati Bengals in the first half of Week 2 (surrendering four passing touchdowns), but Baltimore went on to […]

Week 3 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

Through two weeks of the NFL season, my hit rate on projecting non-quarterback busts has been pretty strong, but when it comes to predicting which quarterbacks would struggles...man, it's been tough. Ryan Fitzpatrick in Week 2 and Patrick Mahomes in Week 1... Still, it's Week 3, and we're starting to get some better data to […]

Week 3 Consistency Reports - All Positions

Assessing consistency after two weeks of the season is always tough but in a 16-game season we have already seen an eighth of it. Therefore, looking at how players have started the season is still useful. It may not be a predictor of long-term fantasy consistency but it does give us an impression of who […]

Stop The Slander! Thank the Fantasy Football Gods for Matthew Stafford

He is not a fantasy football QB1. His team lacks any type of identity or threat to the upper echelon of teams in the NFC. There are even talks of unseating him atop the Detroit Lions depth chart. You may be sullying his name as we speak. Stop The Slander! Thank the Fantasy Football Gods […]

Inside the Tent - Week 3 NFL Injury Insight

In Week 2, we unfortunately bore witness to some notable running back injuries including Dalvin Cook, Melvin Gordon, Joe Mixon, Jay Ajayi, and LeSean McCoy. On a more positive note, Aaron Rodgers was able to play thanks to a cumbersome knee brace and even threw a TD to his go-to receiver, Davante Adams. Now as we […]

Ahead of The Game - College Devy Prospects (Week 4 Edition)

Week three was a bucket of joy from a fan perspective. There were one possession games, highly competitive matchups between ranked teams, and even major upsets. And it's a good time to hold onto those memories as we approach week four. Week four is typically not the best slate of games from a competitive stand […]

Josh Rosen Could Make Debut This Sunday

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks said it's "hard to determine" when the right time to play rookie quarterback Josh Rosen is, but ESPN's Josh Weinfuss would not be surprised if Rosen sees the field this Sunday against the Bears if the offense under Sam Bradford continues to struggle. The Cardinals have just one touchdown […]

Kenyan Drake, DeVante Parker, Ryan Tannehill Off Injury Report

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake (abdomen), wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) and quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle, knee) all practiced in full on Friday and have been removed from the Week 3 injury report against the Raiders. Drake will be the starting running back and is a strong RB2 against a weak Raiders front. Tannehill […]

Case Keenum Not On Injury Report

Denver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum (knee) practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the final Week 3 injury report against the Ravens. Keenum doesn't have a very high fantasy ceiling despite the team being 2-0, and he's thrown more interceptions than touchdowns through two weeks. The matchup against Baltimore isn't very enticing either, […]

Alex Smith Faces Favorable Matchup In Week 3

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith heads into Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers facing a very favorable matchup. The Packers pass defense ranks 26th in the NFL through two games, yielding 283.5 yards per game with four touchdowns. They have also given up nine pass plays of 20 or more yards and one pass […]

Andre Smith Ruled Out Against Bears

Arizona Cardinals right tackle Andre Smith (elbow) has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Bears. That means that tackle John Wetzel will fill in against Bears All-Pro defensive end Khalil Mack on Sunday. That's extremely bad news for Cardinals quarterback Sam Bradford and an offense that has just one touchdown in two weeks. […]

Aaron Rodgers Questionable Against Redskins

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 3 against the Redskins. Rodgers is expected to get in a limited practice again this Saturday and then suit up on Sunday. It'd be the same routine he went through last weekend before playing against the Vikings. As long as Rodgers is […]

Ryan Tannehill Has Good Matchup In Week 3

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is facing a favorable matchup in Week 3 against the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders allowed the seventh most passing yards in the NFL last season and will be without cornerback Daryl Worley (suspension) and possibly cornerback Nick Nelson (hamstring) as well. Oakland has performed better thus far in 2018, but […]

Derek Carr Looking For First Win Of The Season

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr is looking to lead the team to their first victory this Sunday versus the Dolphins. Carr has been very efficient this season, with an 80% completion rate this season and nearly 600 passing yards, but only has one touchdown to show for it. The matchup looks tough on paper, as […]

Browns To Make Decision On QB On Monday

Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson said he will meet with the team on Monday to give his decision on the starting quarterback. There isn't much suspense here. Everyone knows it'll be rookie Baker Mayfield after he replaced the injured Tyrod Taylor (concussion) right before halftime and led the team to its first win in […]

Marcus Mariota Gets Questionable Tag

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) is listed as questionable for Week 3 against the Jaguars. Head coach Mike Vrabel said the team will decide in the next 24 hours. Mariota was active last week but sat and watched Blaine Gabbert direct the team to a win. Mariota has made progress in practice this week […]

Corey Clement, Alshon Jeffery, Jason Peters Questionable

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement (quadriceps), wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) and left tackle Jason Peters (quadriceps) are all questionable to play in Week 3 against the Colts. Clement is a new entry on the injury report. It's not a good sign, but we'd still expect him to suit up and fill in as […]

Fantasy Football Q&A Mailbag - Week 3

Week 2 of the 2018 NFL Season is in the books, and what a wild ride it has been so far. Matt Breida leads the NFL in rushing, David Johnson is ranked outside of the top 25 in fantasy points at his position, Ryan Fitzpatrick is the number one overall fantasy player, Patrick Mahomes has […]

Cardinals Won't Rush Josh Rosen

Arizona Cardinals general manager Steve Keim made it clear that the team won't rush rookie quarterback Josh Rosen onto the field in 2018. Head coach Steve Wilks said that Sam Bradford remains the starter "right now" heading into Week 3 against the Bears. "It's a tough question," Keim said. "When the time is right, Josh […]

Marlon Mack, Jack Doyle, Anthony Castonzo Won't Play

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (foot, hamstring), tight end Jack Doyle (hip) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) will not play in Week 3 against the Eagles. It's a big blow to quarterback Andrew Luck and the offense in a tough matchup this weekend. With Mack out, rookies Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines should […]

Browns Not Naming Baker Mayfield The Starter Yet

Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson refused to name rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield the starter moving forward after he led the team to a comeback win -- and their first win since December of 2016 -- on Thursday night against the Jets. "I'd like to watch the tape," Jackson said. It's likely just lip service, […]

Taylor Lewan Clears Concussion Protocol

Tennessee Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan (concussion) has cleared the concussion protocol and should be active in Week 3 against the Jaguars. Against a strong pass rush of the Jaguars, this is excellent news for whoever is under center for the Titans this Sunday.

Rookies Worth Your Attention in Week 3

In this column, we will look at rookies who have either performed well the previous few weeks or who have a favorable matchup in the upcoming week. These may be high-profile names or under-the-radar depth players; the only thing that matters is that they are first-year pros ready to make a name for themselves. Ideally, […]

Aaron Rodgers Expected To Practice Saturday

Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said it's the goal for quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) to practice on Saturday. It's the same routine that Rodgers went through last week when he played all of the Week 3 tie against the Vikings. Expect him to be less than 100 percent again but still play against […]

The Curious Case of Ryan Fitzpatrick

In what world is Ryan Fitzpatrick a better quarterback than Jameis Winston? In the world of the 2018 NFL. Not only has he started the season with 819 passing yards, eight touchdown passes and a 78% completion rate through the first two weeks, but he also has the most important ability - availability. Jameis Winston […]

Sleeping in Seattle - Is Russell Wilson No Longer a QB1?

The thing about writing a "bold predictions" article is that you're essentially going 20 percent on data and 80 percent on gut instincts, so when I wrote a few weeks ago that Russell Wilson would finish outside of the top 10 at the quarterback position I definitely felt like there was a chance of it […]

Buy or Sell? Week 3 Trade Advice

One of the toughest parts of fantasy football to navigate is trading with league-mates. As a result of the unique characteristics of every person in a fantasy football league, it is often difficult to find a strategy for trading players that works for everyone in any situation. Nevertheless, highlighting the performances of certain players helps […]
