Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 16: Jordan Love, Jerome Ford, and Terry McLaurin

Week 16 of the fantasy football season is underway and while we may have drafted certain players at a premium, it is okay to consider benching them despite their name value, especially now that the playoffs have begun.

Kyle Pitts Has TE2 Appeal For Week 16

Drake London Has Low-End WR3 Value For Week 16

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London has been an inconsistent contributor this season. To be fair, it's not really London's fault, but more of the poor play for his quarterbacks. London is coming off a two-catch performance in the loss to the Carolina Panthers. Before that, London posted an epic 10-catch 172-yard performance. The young […]

Tyler Allgeier Is Difficult To Trust

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier saw a bulk of the carries during last week's loss to the Carolina Panthers. Oddly, Allgeier looked to be the featured back during this game. He carried the ball 14 times for 45 yards in the 9-7 loss. The former fifth-round has been splitting up the backfield duties with […]

Bijan Robinson Has RB2 Value

Atlanta Falcons rookie running back Bijan Robinson saw his lowest carry total since Week 7 during Sunday's loss to the Carolina Panthers. The rookie back rushed seven times for 11 yards in the Week 15 defeat. The hope is that Robinson bounces back in a favorable matchup against the Indianapolis Colts this weekend. A defensive […]

Taylor Heinicke Is Avoidable For Week 16

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Taylor Heinicke was recently named the starter for the rest of the season. The veteran signal-caller will take over for Desmond Ridder for the final few games.
