Chad Ryland Elevated To The Active Roster

The Arizona Cardinals elevated kicker Chad Ryland to the active roster for Sunday's game against the 49ers. The 24-year-old had a rough season in 2023, making only 64% of his field goal attempts. While that type of production won't land him on most fantasy rosters, Saturday's move could mean Matt Prater, who is questionable, (knee) […]

Week 5 Fantasy Football Busts? Players Who May Disappoint Include Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, Zay Flowers, Rico Dowdle, Chase Brown

Week 5 brings bye weeks into the mix to muck up fantasy football lineups. The Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles take their mini-vacation this week. That's unfortunate for the game we love, as both pass defenses are well below average and easy targets for start/sit decisions. At least the league's top pass defense (Tennessee) is […]

This season, McBride has recorded 14 receptions […]

Matt Prater Questionable To Kick In Week 5

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (left knee) returned to practice in a limited capacity on Friday.

The Green Bay Packers entered the 2024 season with arguably the deepest wide receiver room in the league. That depth will be tested on Sunday.

Arizona Cardinals Defense Should Remain On The Waiver Wire In Week 5

The Arizona Cardinals DST should be left on the waiver wire heading into their Week 5 matchup with the San Francisco 49ers. Last week, they had their worst outing of the season against the Washington Commanders, allowing 42 points in the loss. While the Cardinals have been able to force turnovers and create sacks, they […]

Michael Wilson Not In Play For Week 5

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson is likely not a viable fantasy option in Week 5 as the team travels to San Francisco to face the 49ers. However, he is starting to show some promise in the fantasy landscape, having received 16 targets over the last two weeks and emerging as the team's third option […]

Greg Dortch Not On Fantasy Radar In Week 5

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch should remain on the waiver wire as the team travels to San Francisco to face the 49ers in Week 5. Dortch is rostered in just 3% of fantasy leagues, marking a season-low in ownership as many managers have dropped him. While he had a solid performance in Week 1 […]

James Conner Should Be Viewed As A Low-End RB2 In Week 5

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner is a low-end RB2 against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5. He quickly eased fantasy managers' concerns last week by bouncing back from a season-low performance, racking up 104 yards and a touchdown against the Washington Commanders last week. The Cardinals will face a solid 49ers front seven, […]

Kyler Murray Is A Low-End QB1 In Week 5

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray and the passing attack have cooled off a bit after a strong start. In Week 5, the Cardinals will travel to San Francisco to face the 49ers, ranked 11th against opposing fantasy quarterbacks. In last week's loss to the Washington Commanders, Murray struggled, failing to break 200 passing yards and […]

Marvin Harrison Jr. Is A WR1 In Week 5

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is proving to be a magnet for the end zone, having caught his fourth touchdown of the season last week against the Washington Commanders. Fantasy managers should be pleased, as he is now tied for second with Justin Jefferson in touchdown receptions. Despite facing a strong 49ers defense […]
