Wide receivers are one of the most critical components, and a core building block, for all fantasy football teams. This is especially true in PPR formats, where fantasy owners are rewarded for every catch that a wide receiver makes. We are here to help you plan your wide receiver draft strategy, and to target the […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ team leagues OWNED IN: 45% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Larry Donnell doesn't have to compete with another tight end for Eli Manning's affection. Donnell has been a part of 274 snaps for the Giants this season, which is 77.2% of the Giants' offensive snaps. Donnell averages six targets a game […]
Full Story »Josh McCown (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues. OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Since Josh McCown began starting for the Browns, he has quietly been launching an aerial assault for the Cleveland offense. In weeks three, four, and five, McCown has accumulated a fantastic 68% completion percentage, 1,154 total passing yards (an average of 385 […]
Full Story »Is Jimmy Graham Still A Must-Start In Fantasy?
When Superstar Tight End Jimmy Graham was traded this off-season from the New Orleans Saints to the Seattle Seahawks, expectations were through the roof. Quarterback Russell Wilson was finally going to have that number one target, added to an offense lacking a huge play-making ball catcher. Unfortunately for the Seahawks, that glorious image has turned into […]
Full Story »How Is Gary Barnidge Still Available? Add Him Before It's Too Late
Don't look now, but Gary Barnidge (TE, Cleveland Browns) is lighting up the fantasy football scoreboards. Quarterback Josh McCown the past three weeks has completed passes to Barnidge early and often and has become one of McCown's favorite targets. Not bad for the former 5th round pick from Louisville in 2008 who has been a no-name until […]
Full Story »Marshawn Lynch Eyeing Return - Start Beast Mode or Roll With Thomas Rawls?
Marshawn Lynch looks to return to the grid-iron in Week 6 according to Liz Mathews of 710 ESPN. Lynch, has been dealing with a nagging hamstring injury that he hurt early in Week 3's game against the Chicago Bears, and has since kept him sidelined. Thomas Rawls put together a solid relief performance in Week […]
Full Story »Carlos Hyde (RB, SF) - Running Backs With Warning Signals?
Carlos Hyde finally had a much needed bounce back game against the New York Giants, although it did take him a full four quarters to actually show us something. The skinny on Hyde is this: he's nowhere near the guy we saw in Week One against the Vikings, but he's also not going to be […]
Full Story »DeMarco Murray (RB, PHI) - Running Backs With Warning Signals?
DeMarco Murray finally had a big day of 120 total yards against the Saints, showing that the Philadelphia offense can produce a fantasy relevant running back at any time. The only drawback of that is the harsh reality that the Eagles have spread around their fantasy production without any sort of rhyme or reason. There […]
Full Story »Jeremy Hill (RB, CIN) - Running Backs With Warning Signals
Alright, it's time for me to just own up to this one and admit that I was dead wrong on Jeremy Hill this year. I had been talking Hill up as a lock to finish within the top-10 at running back and it's looking like the Cincinnati Bengals are in a genuine committee that will […]
Full Story »C.J. Anderson, Ronnie Hillman - Running Backs With Warning Signals
After Ronnie Hillman's 72-yard touchdown run in week four, it looked as if Hillman had earned himself more touches with the upside of outproducing C.J. Anderson. Well not only did Anderson receive more carries than Hillman against the Raiders on Sunday, but both guys went right back to being completely ineffective. The two of them […]
Full Story »Ameer Abdullah (RB, DET) - Running Backs With Warning Signals
This might seem like cheating, but given how horrendous the Detroit Lions have been thus far I think it's important to call out this backfield in particular. Other than Ameer Abdullah's big Week One outing, no Detroit running back has shown enough production to warrant starting with confidence. I suppose Abdullah is still the back […]
Full Story »Melvin Gordon (RB, SD) - Running Backs With Warning Signals
So you know how I literally just mentioned how terrible the Browns are against the run? Turns out, Melvin Gordon is immune to producing in such an advantageous matchup. I know Gordon had somewhat of a decent outing on Monday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but it's not like he had a huge game or anything. He was […]
Full Story »Running Backs Sending Out Warning Signals Going Into Week 6
Looking ahead to week six, tons of players are starting to show us what their true outlook should be for the remainder of the season. Over the next two or three weeks, we'll be taking a much firmer stance on the players you see listed in the Warning Signals lists. This is the real meat […]
Full Story »Jacob Tamme (TE, ATL) - Fantasy Football PPR Risers
Owned in 6% of Fleaflicker leagues Does anyone remember when Tamme played for the Indianapolis Colts and had Peyton Manning as his quarterback? Can anyone recall what his best season was? I did not think so. To answer that question, Tamme has only gone over 200 receiving yards in a season twice in his 10 […]
