Tevin Coleman Could Be A Trade Candidate

Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman could become a trade candidate if the team doesn't turn things around in the next week or so. Rookie Ito Smith has impressed in limited action so far. Linebacker Vic Beasley could also be a trade candidate, but his 2019 option of $12.810 million could be a road block. […]

Devonta Freeman Not Dealing With Long-Term Injury

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) is not believed to be dealing with a long-term injury with his foot after missing three games due to a knee injury suffered in Week 1, according to a source.

Defenses to Stream Against with Confidence

A football player is only as good as his matchup. For players on the fringes of fantasy rosters, that proves to be true more often than not. Take Blake Bortles, who has an average of 25.82 points per game (standard, four-point per passing touchdown) against weak pass defenses, such as the Chiefs, Patriots, and Jets. […]

Devonta Freeman's Week 6 Status In Doubt

Updating a previous report, Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) is dealing with a bone contusion, according to a source. He missed practice on Wednesday and his status for Week 6 against the Buccaneers is in doubt. The good news is that he was able to do some work off to the side, but […]

Mohamed Sanu Limited In Practice Wednesday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu (hip) was limited in practice on Wednesday. His injury didn't keep him out last week and shouldn't in Week 6 against the Buccaneers in what is an excellent matchup. Don't look now, but Sanu has now caught 10 passes on 16 targets for 184 yards and a touchdown the […]

Devonta Freeman Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) did not practice on Wednesday. He's no longer listed with his knee injury, but Freeman hasn't been able to stay healthy this year. Freeman fell flat in his return last week, running just eight times for 32 yards (4.0 yards per carry). It's unclear if his new injury […]

Falcons Offense Struggling Outdoors

The Atlanta Falcons offense has struggled so far in two road games outdoors (at Eagles and at Steelers), averaging 14.5 points in those two losses. Running backs Devonta Freeman, Tevin Coleman and Ito Smith combined to average less than 3.0 yards per carry on 18 attempts against Pittsburgh. That shouldn't be a worry for fantasy […]

Mohamed Sanu (WR, ATL) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of Leagues ANALYSIS: A quick riser on the waiver wire, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu finds himself in the front runner’s category this week. It may be odd that I have a front runner who also shares snaps with Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley, but as I have explained […]

Austin Hooper (TE, ATL) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 57% of Leagues ANALYSIS:  You never know this season which pass catcher Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan will make his top target. One week it is Pro Bowler Julio Jones. The next week it is talented rookie Calvin Ridley. Then Ryan will spend a game dumping countless passes off to his running backs. […]

As a caveat, these prices do not by any means indicate how much […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions

It took five weeks but the vultures are finally starting to come out. We saw it in Detroit, where talented rookie Kerryon Johnson turned 12 carries into 70 yards while LeGarrette Blount turned 12 carries into 22 yards yet cashed in twice on short touchdown scores. Despite the return of Devonta Freeman in Atlanta, it […]

C.J. Uzomah (TE, CIN) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: As predicted, it was Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah, not Tyler Kroft who was the primary pass-catching tight end with Tyler Eifert gone for the year. Of course, that only resulted in two catches for 43 yards but it wasn't a high-volume day for the Bengals pass […]

Week 6 Wide Receivers - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

It’s nice to write these articles when guys I have been keeping an eye on start making it to the top of the list. With the uptick in scoring this year, it’s been essential to find guys who don’t just offer a safe floor but offer the opportunity to score at a high clip. The […]

Week 6 Tight Ends - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Normally, this week is probably not the week that millions of fantasy football players would be scouring their league waiver wires for tight ends. The Detroit Lions and New Orleans Saints are the only two teams on bye, and neither have a tight end fantasy owners will miss much. But as you are probably aware, […]

Deeper Sleepers Heading Into Week 6

The wildness that is the 2018 NFL season continued in Week 5, gifting us some curious real-life outcomes to go along with the usual fantasy absurdity.

Matt Ryan Undergoes X-Rays

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan (foot) underwent X-rays on Sunday but is 100 percent ready to go for a great matchup in Week 6 against a terrible Buccaneers secondary. Ryan had 285 yards passing with just one touchdown in a disappointing showing against the Steelers in Week 5, but he'll be a strong QB1 this […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 6 Lightning Round

Mohamed Sanu Continues Hot Streak

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu continued his hot streak on Sunday versus the Steelers. Even though the Falcons got severely beaten, Sanu managed a solid game. The receiver grabbed four balls on seven targets for 73 yards and a touchdown. After the Bengals game, which is Sanu’s old team, we thought the targets may […]

Calvin Ridley Cools Off In Week 5

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley finally slowed down on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The rookie playmaker caught four balls on five targets for 38 yards. Even though Ridley had a “bad” day, at least compared to his last three weeks, there is no reason for fantasy owners to panic. The young receiver is […]

Matt Bryant Has A Middling Fantasy Performance

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant had a so-so fantasy performance against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Bryant kicked one field goal and added two extra points in the Falcons loss. The Falcons offensive struggles in this game did not help Bryant. However, given the amount of kicks missed this season, Bryant has at least been […]
