Julio Jones, Todd Gurley II, Hayden Hurst Sit Out Thursday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring), running back Todd Gurley II (knee), and tight end Hayden Hurst (ankle) all missed Thursday's practice. All three were able to practice in a limited fashion on Wednesday, so it's certainly not ideal to see a downgrade in their activity levels. Still, the Falcons could just be exercising […]

GPP DFS Value Plays for FanDuel, DraftKings (Week 13) - Daily Fantasy Football Advice

The Week 13 GPP DFS Value Plays come on the heels of the "longest week in the NFL", in case you didn't hear Mike Tirico say it multiple times yesterday. I'll be honest, I like a "long week" and a little mid-week football when those players haven't played in over a week. But I hate […]

Younghoe Koo Should Be Good To Go

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (quad) should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Saints. Koo was limited during Wednesday's practice with a quad injury, though special teams' coordinator Bernie Parmalee said that Koo "is going to be ok." That would be good news for fantasy managers, as Koo currently sits atop the […]

Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, Todd Gurley II Limited

Atlanta Falcons wide receivers Julio Jones (hamstring) and Calvin Ridley (ankle, foot) and running back Todd Gurley II (knee) were all limited practice participants on Wednesday. Jones and Gurley didn't play in the Week 12 win over the Raiders, so their participation on Wednesday is a good sign that they'll have a chance to suit […]

Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

By this point in the season, your core team had better be set in stone because the waiver wire options keep getting thinner. It's still advisable to stash running backs whenever possible, as injuries continue to take their toll at the position. Some popular streamers like Brian Hill and Jordan Wilkins failed to deliver in […]

The Cut List (Week 13) - Time to Let Go?

For our Week 13 Cut List preamble, we are going to lament the absolutely mystifying chain of events that ended the Chargers/Bills game in Week 12. Down by 10 with 3:21 left on the clock and starting from his own 12-yard-line, Justin Herbert led yet another impressive late-game drive that included two fourth-down conversions--one of […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 13 Lightning Round

Atlanta Hopes To Have Julio Jones, Todd Gurley II Back Sunday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) and running back Todd Gurley II (knee) missed Sunday's game versus Las Vegas, but head coach Raheem Morris is hopeful to have the duo back on the field for Week 13 against New Orleans. Gurley rushed for a season-low 26 yards against the Saints earlier this year and […]

Younghoe Koo Makes Five Field Goals

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo went a perfect 5-for-5 in field goals in the Week 12 win over Las Vegas. He also made four extra points. Koo's longest field goal was 54 yards in the win and he has now gone 29-for-30 in field goals this season. He is also 22-for-25 in extra points. Koo […]

Hayden Hurst Sees Eight Targets

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst compiled four receptions for 48 yards on eight targets in Week 12. After getting nothing last week, the TE redeemed himself. Though he has had a few bad games this season, Hurst has had a stable role in this Atlanta offense and has usually put up decent numbers each […]

Russell Gage Posts 34 Yards

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage finished with three receptions for 34 yards on five targets in the Week 12 blowout win over the Raiders. Even with Julio Jones not playing, Gage did not see a boost in value throughout the game. He has been rather streaky this season and has only posted over 50 […]

Calvin Ridley Has 50 Yards In Week 12

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley had six receptions for 50 yards and a score on nine targets in Week 12. Ridley was the WR1 on Sunday with Julio Jones not playing due to a hamstring injury. The WR has seen at least seven targets in eight of 10 games and has produced at least […]

Brian Hill Rushes For 55 Yards

Atlanta Falcons running back Brian Hill finished with 13 carries for 55 yards in Week 12. Todd Gurley II was ruled out of the game beforehand with a knee injury, meaning Hill and Ito Smith split the work out of the backfield. Hill had 13 carries while Smith had 12. If Gurley returns next week, […]

Ito Smith Has Rushing Touchdown

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith had 12 carries for 65 yards and a score in the Week 12 win over Las Vegas. He also added four receptions for 10 yards on five targets. Todd Gurley II did not play in the game due to a knee injury and Smith and Brian Hill took the […]

Matt Ryan Posts Season-Low 185 Yards

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan finished 22-for-39 for 185 yards, two touchdowns, and one pick in the blowout win over the Raiders. Ryan posted a season-low in yards despite the huge win and now has five touchdowns and five interceptions in the past four games. The QB generally hasn't been as explosive in fantasy this […]

Calvin Ridley Injures Ankle Late In Third Quarter

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (ankle) suffered an ankle injury late in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. After converting a first down, Ridley remained down on the ground, grabbing his ankle. He was slow to get up, but he walked off the field on his own strength and […]
