Todd Gurley, Jalen Ramsey Expected To Play In Week 7

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay expects running back Todd Gurley (thigh) and cornerback Jalen Ramsey (back) to play in Week 7 against the Falcons. Gurley missed last week's game but should be back on the field in an excellent matchup with the free-falling Falcons Defense. Gurley will be more of a low-end RB2 […]

David Johnson To Be Game-Time Decision

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that running back David Johnson (ankle) will be a game-time decision in Week 7 against the Giants. If the Cardinals had to play on Friday, Johnson would've been inactive. We thought there wouldn't be drama around Johnson's status this week with him getting in more practice work, but […]

Chris Thompson Ruled Out For Sunday

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (toe) has officially been ruled out for Week 7 against the 49ers. Thompson is dealing with turf toe, so he could also wind up missing Week 8 and potentially beyond. It means that Adrian Peterson will handle the early downs, with Wendell Smallwood chipping in on passing downs. However, […]

Saquon Barkley and Evan Engram Full Go For Sunday

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) and tight end Evan Engram (knee) have been cleared for Sunday's contest against the Cardinals and appear to be set to return to their full workloads. Both should immediately be inserted back into lineups with elite matchups against an overmatched Cardinals Defense. Engram's return does knock Golden Tate's value […]

Devin Singletary Trending In Right Direction

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that rookie running back Devin Singletary (hamstring) is trending in the right direction to play in Week 7 against the Dolphins. Miami's defense is as good of a matchup you'll find in the NFL, but Singletary will likely play second fiddle to veteran Frank Gore if he returns […]

Royce Freeman Rushes For A Score On Thursday

Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman managed to score a touchdown despite rushing for just 35 yards on 10 attempts during the loss to Kansas City. With the Chiefs Defense finally stepping up in this one, Freeman and backfield mate Phillip Lindsay were collectively held to just 71 yards on Thursday night. Both men should […]

Phillip Lindsay Goes Cold On Thursday

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay couldn't get anything going against a Chiefs Defense that stepped in the wake of the injury to quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who is expected to miss some time after suffering a knee injury in the second quarter. After accumulating four touchdowns over his last four games, Lindsay finished with just […]

Mark Walton Remains Limited in Practice

Following his first career start in a 17-16 loss to the Washington Redskins in Week 6, Miami Dolphins running back Mark Walton (thumb) has been limited in practice this week, but he should be good to go for Week 7. Even with the start, Walton is still clearly behind Kenyan Drake on the depth chart […]

Kenyan Drake Belongs on Your Bench Again

The subject of trade rumors that have recently heated up, Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake continues to be a fantasy non-entity heading into a Week 7 matchup with the Buffalo Bills. Drake has only 290 total yards on the season, with 19 receptions and zero touchdowns, giving him just 25 points on the year […]

Jeffery Wilson Could Regain Vulture Status

With San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert (knee) banged up, the biggest beneficiary could be Jeffery Wilson. The second-year back made fantasy noise earlier this season with four touchdown plunges on just 18 carries. Wilson could regain status as a red zone weapon if Mostert is unable to go in Week 7 against the […]

FanDuel, DraftKings CFB DFS Picks: Daily Fantasy College Football Advice for 10/18/19

Welcome to Friday College football. We don't always have so much action on Friday night, but this is the second week in a row that we've been spoiled. On DraftKings, the slate is four games big. On FanDuel, just three. It's a common occurrence that the two sites can't get on the same page with […]

Damien Williams Has Another Awful Game

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams has been basically a ghost on the field since Week 2. He finished with six total rushing yards during Week 6, but managed to have a worse fantasy game the following week. Williams rushed nine times for seven yards in the Week 7 victory over the Broncos on Thursday. […]

LeSean McCoy Goes Over 60 Yards in Win

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy was strong in the running game for the team during their Week 7 victory over the Denver Broncos. McCoy rushed 12 times for 64 yards and caught two passes through the air for 12 extra yards on Thursday. McCoy has been clearly rushing better than lead back Damien […]

Deebo Samuel, Raheem Mostert Yet To Practice This Week

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Deebo Samuel (groin) and running back Raheem Mostert (knee) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Samuel and Mostert are on the wrong side of questionable to play in Week 7 against the Redskins. On a run-first team, Samuel just hasn't seen enough targets to be […]

Adrian Peterson, Case Keenum Back To Full Practice

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (quadriceps) and quarterback Case Keenum (foot, shoulder) both returned to a full practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. The Redskins were likely just resting their veterans on Wednesday, so expect Peterson and Keenum to be out there in Week 7 against the 49ers. Peterson had 20-plus carries […]

Dalvin Cook Primed For Huge Week 7

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook is in line for a monster game in Week 7 against the Detroit Lions. The Lions Defense has already given up seven rushing touchdowns and are allowing 5.1 yards per carry and 133.8 rushing yards per game. They've also allowed a running back to score at least 20 PPR […]

Alvin Kamara, Jared Cook In Danger Of Missing Week 7

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) and tight end Jared Cook (ankle) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday and could be in jeopardy of missing Week 7 against the Bears. They'll need to get in at least some limited practice on Friday. Kamara fought through his injuries last […]

Royce Freeman Is A Viable PPR Flex Option In Week 7

Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman continues to carve out a significant role in the Broncos passing offense as the season progresses. This allows him to hold flex value in a PPR setting, as he is seeing between four and five receptions a week out of the backfield. Expect much of the same against Kansas […]

Phillip Lindsay Faces Weak Chiefs Run Defense

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay is starting to build an impressive log of games to start the year and he looks to keep the ball rolling against one of the league's worst run defenses on Thursday night. The Chiefs have been abysmal against the run, which should make Lindsay owners salivate as he has […]

Rex Burkhead Still Limited In Practice

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (foot) remains limited in practice as the team prepares to take on the Jets this Monday night in Week 7. Burkhead has missed the past two games and would certainly like another crack at the Jets Defense. In Week 3, Burkhead racked up 69 yards from scrimmage with […]

James White Has PPR Appeal In Week 7

New England Patriots running back James White will be on the fantasy radar as a solid PPR play in Week 7 against the Jets. White is far off his production from last season but has been active the past three games. White has 23 receptions for 149 yards during that span and the Jets have […]

Sony Michel Out For Revenge Against Jets

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel will look to atone for totaling only 11 rushing yards in Week 3 when the Patriots take on the Jets for a second time this Monday night. Michel's arrow is slowly tilting upward, averaging 80 rushing yards a game with one touchdown over his last three games. He […]

Jamaal Williams An RB3 Against The Raiders

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams has RB3 value in deeper leagues against the Oakland Raiders this week. Williams returned from injury against the Detroit Lions, taking full advantage of the struggles of Aaron Jones. Williams finished the game with 104 yards on the ground, with an additional 32 yards and a touchdown through […]

Kerryon Johnson A Mid-Range RB2 In Tough Week 7 Matchup

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson was given the keys to the Lions backfield but has yet to impress fantasy owners who spent an early-round draft pick on the 22-year-old. Johnson is averaging a measly 3.3 YPC and has seen just 13 targets through the air over five games. Disappointing to say the least. Johnson […]

Aaron Jones A Borderline RB1 This Week Against Oakland

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones is a borderline RB1 this week facing the Oakland Raiders. Jones found himself marginalized against the Detroit Lions after failing to catch a touchdown pass. Jones watched as Jamaal Williams impressed on the field after his return from injury. The Raiders have been one of the better units […]

Rams Hope Todd Gurley Can Play Sunday

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Todd Gurley (thigh) is "on a good pace to hopefully be able to play on Sunday" in Week 7 against the Falcons after he was inactive last week. McVay also said Gurley is "feeling good" and is "going to participate in a limited fashion" […]

Latavius Murray A Good Start In Week 7

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray could have a big opportunity in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears. Starter Alvin Kamara is battling injury and pending the injury reports, looks doubtful for the upcoming matchup. Enter Latavius Murray, who is coming off a game in which he averaged a season-high 5.5 yards per carry […]

Chris Thompson Still Out Thursday

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (toe) remained sidelined at practice for the second straight day Thursday. It's looking unlikely that Thompson plays in Week 7 against the 49ers while dealing with a minor case of turf toe. Adrian Peterson should see another heavy workload this Sunday, but it might not matter against San Fran's […]

Matt Breida Doing Fine As Second In Command

Despite playing second fiddle to backfield mate Tevin Coleman since his return, San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida still holds plenty of standalone fantasy value. Playing fewer snaps than Coleman, Breida has converted 31 touches into 192 scrimmage yards and two scores since Week 5. The third-year back has also been utilized in the […]

Wayne Gallman Practicing In Full

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman (concussion) practiced in full on Thursday. After missing last Thursday's contest, Gallman looks to be on track to return in Week 7 against the Cardinals. However, Saquon Barkley (ankle) is also practicing in full and should be able to return after a two-game absence. Gallman will be a […]
