Happy New Year! We kick it off with a full day of bowl games! Unfortunately, these are the last college football games of the 2023 season except for the National Championship Game. The end of the season is hitting a little harder than normal because college football will change for the worse in 2024. So […]

Zach Charbonnet’s Week 17 Value In Flux

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet was of no use to fantasy managers in Week 16. With starter Kenneth Walker III (shoulder/illness) fully recovered from an oblique injury that afforded Charbonnet more work, the rookie had just three touches against the Tennessee Titans. He maintained his usual role on passing downs and inside the two-minute […]

Zamir White May Lead Backfield In Week 17

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White was the starter for the team again in Week 16. White had 22 carries for 145 yards in the matchup. The Raiders running back failed to bring in his only target of the game, but he was productive with his touches on the ground. White was pivotal in […]

James Conner An RB1 For Week 17

Heading into Week 17, Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner is enjoying a bit of a resurgence, showcasing his versatility with 16.8 touches and 79 total yards per game since his return. His involvement in the passing game has been on the rise, logging at least three targets in three of his last four outings. […]

Christian McCaffrey Faces Washington As Overall RB1

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey has spent all season as the consensus RB1 in fantasy, which certainly won't be changing in Week 17 at the Washington Commanders. On Christmas night against a quality Baltimore defense, the 49ers offense struggled to take care of the football but that didn't stop McCaffrey from going over […]

Nico Collins, De'Von Achane, D'Andre Swift: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 17

Today, we'll look at Nico Collins, De'Von Achane, and D'Andre Swift. They all had their share of monster games this season, but have also disappeared at times when fantasy managers relied […]

Tee Higgins Hopes To Stay On Track Against The Chiefs

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins hasn't met expectations throughout the 2023-24 campaign. However, the wideout had one of his best performances of the season in the Week 16 loss to the Steelers, catching five passes for 140 yards and a touchdown. Of course, with Ja'Marr Chase (shoulder) sidelined for that one, Higgins received extra […]

Joe Mixon Still A Must-Start In Week 17

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is off the injury report, meaning he's good to go for Sunday's meeting with the Chiefs. The 27-year-old hasn't been the most impactful runner throughout the 2023-24 campaign. However, he still had a touchdown in seven of his eight appearances leading up to the Week 16 matchup with […]

Tony Pollard – Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 17

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard was a popular late first-round or early second-round fantasy football draft pick. After ending the 2022 season as a top-10 running back, many had high expectations for the explosive runner in his first year as the starter. While […]

AJ Dillon Off The Flex Radar Against Minnesota

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon will go on the road to take on the Minnesota Vikings in Week 17. The 25-year-old has been limited in practice due to a thumb injury but was left off the final injury report and will be active Sunday night. With Aaron Jones back and at full strength, […]

Aaron Jones An RB2 In Week 17

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones will go on the road to take on the Minnesota Vikings in Week 17. The veteran was limited in practice this week due to a finger and knee injury but was left off of the final injury report and is ready to roll for Sunday night. Jones exploded […]

D'Andre Swift Has Top-12 Upside In Week 17

Philadelphia Eagles running back D'Andre Swift will take on the Arizona Cardinals in the team's final home game of the regular season in Week 17. The 24-year-old found the end zone for the first time since Week 11 last week in the Eagles win over the Giants and now has a smash matchup to capitalize […]

Jonathan Taylor Up For A Big Workload In Week 17

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor ran the ball 18 times for 43 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 16 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. He now gears up for a Week 17 matchup against the Raiders, one in which fellow running back Zack Moss (forearm) has been ruled out from. Taylor is […]

Gus Edwards Continues To Hold Flex Value In Week 17

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards was expected to resume his role as the lead back after Keaton Mitchell (knee) went down, but he ended up taking a backseat to Justice Hill in Week 16. Edwards remains the go-to red zone option when it comes to the backfield which still gives him some fantasy value […]

Jaylen Warren Has PPR Upside Against Seahawks

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren has been heavily involved as a receiver over the past three weeks and will look to capitalize on a solid matchup against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. With Mason Rudolph at quarterback last week, Warren earned six targets and recorded five receptions for 30 yards, making it the […]

BALLER MOVE: Sit in shallow leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end RB2 ANALYSIS: It feels weird recommending Derrick Henry as a sit, but here we are.

Najee Harris A Solid Flex Option In Week 17

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (knee) practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the team's injury report ahead of a road matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The Steelers' offense played well with Mason Rudolph under center last week and Harris contributed to the victory with 78 rushing yards and a touchdown. He'll […]

Ezekiel Elliott Remains Appealing Option For Week 17

New England Patriots running back Ezekiel Elliott (illness) logged a full practice on Friday and has been removed from the final injury report.

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) returned to a limited practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for the Week 17 contest versus the Baltimore Ravens.

Elijah Mitchell To Return In Week 17

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) practiced in full all week long and has been removed from the final injury report. He will be active for Sunday's contest against the Washington Commanders, putting an end to his three-game absence. The 25-year-old is averaging less than five carries per game this season, so while […]

Kenneth Walker III Questionable For Week 17 Versus Steelers

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (shoulder, illness) is officially questionable to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. He missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but the team is leaving the door open for him to play with this designation.

David Montgomery – Week 17 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3 ANALYSIS: Although usage has been a question week after week for the two-headed monster in Detroit's backfield, the Lions' coaching staff has been consistent in splitting carries between the two running backs. David Montgomery (89 carries and 10 receptions) has out-touched Jahmyr Gibbs (64 carries […]

Josh Jacobs Doubtful To Play In Week 17

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (quad) did not practice this week and is officially doubtful to play against the Indianapolis Colts. At this rate, it appears that he will miss his third consecutive game. Fantasy managers can expect Zamir White to operate as the Raiders' top running back with Jacobs sidelined. The 24-year-old […]

James Cook - Week 17 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: High-end RB2 with low-end RB1 upside ANALYSIS: James Cook produced just seven fantasy points in Week 16 on 20 touches. That came a week after putting up a career-high 36.1 fantasy points in Week 15 vs. the Cowboys. We know the upside is there. Now, in Week […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 17) - Targets and Avoids

Why don't more teams run the ball when going for two? I don't have stats to back it up but it seems every time a team goes for two they throw the ball. Why not run? The Raiders went for two against the Chiefs and got the conversion. Line up with a three or four-receiver […]
