What to Expect from Taysom Hill

New Orleans is the number one seed in the NFC at the moment. They got there despite not having Michael Thomas most of the season. Their defense also struggled early before coming together lately. What did the team have then to make them so solid? Drew Brees. He may not be what he used to […]

Lamar Jackson Tests Positive For COVID-19

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has tested positive for COVID-19. The news comes after the Thanksgiving matchup against the Steelers was moved to Sunday due to J.K. Dobbins and Mark Ingram II (among others) also testing positive for the virus. With Jackson now out of the mix for the next few weeks, the team will […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 12

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]

Calais Campbell, Two Offensive Lineman Go On COVID-19 List

The Baltimore Ravens placed defensive end Calais Campbell and offensive linemen Patrick Mekari and Matt Skura on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. Because of a COVID-19 outbreak in the Ravens organization this week, the NFL moved the Ravens-Steelers Thursday night Thanksgiving matchup to Sunday afternoon. It's unclear if these three players actually tested positive for […]

Marquise Brown Can't Be Trusted On Sunday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown hasn't been the most impactful option during the 2020 campaign. After finishing Week 1 with 101 yards off five catches, Hollywood's production has fizzled since by surpassing four catches in a game just once. A few weeks ago against New England, he caught an underwhelming two of his seven […]

Disaster Recovery - Week 11's Studs Turned Duds

As we head into the NFL's premiere showcase, Thanksgiving Thursday, the league standings are a massive quagmire. Week 11 did little to settle things. Miami made up no ground on Buffalo atop the AFC East. In fact, the entire division is on a losing streak. Cleveland is now ahead of Baltimore, yet the point differentials […]

FAB Bidding - Week 12 Waiver Wire Targets

We're 11 weeks in and most of us have two or three games left in our fantasy football regular season. Are you cruising to a bye, comfortable enough to look forward a bit, or clawing for those last playoff seeds? With our famous waiver wire pickups list and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, this […]

Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

There's no way to sugarcoat it - if you don't have a reliable group of running backs by now, you might be in trouble. The best strategy for playoff hopefuls is to stash high-end backups that could pay off down the stretch. Quarterback and tight end are similarly thin this week but there are plenty […]

The Cut List (Week 12) - Time to Let Go?

As someone who faced Taysom Hill in both of my home leagues this week, I feel for anyone else who wound up in a similar position. I feel worse for the many people who voiced their concerns on this matter via Twitter (some admittedly in more reasonable tones than others) only to be derided or […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 12

Fantasy GMs are to be commended for rising to the unique challenges that have unfolded during this regular season. The weeks have advanced at a relentless pace, as we have now entered the planning process for Week 12. Some of you are concentrating on constructing lineups that will secure a spot in the fantasy playoffs, […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 12

This wasn't a great week in terms of wide receivers coming out of nowhere to perform, but that's what happens at this point in the season. Positional rotations solidify. Teams in contention keep their best players out there more. Etc., etc., etc. But this week did see Dez Bryant back on an NFL field again […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 12 Lightning Round

Week 11 is largely in the books with some nailbiter finishes and standout performances that will shape the stretch run. The injury headlines are dominated by Joe Burrow's suspected ACL tear, but we also saw La'Mical Perine and Rex Burkhead leave with knee injuries as well. And now J.K. Dobbins and Mark Ingram II are […]

Week 11 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!

Week 11 was an odd one for quarterbacks. The Patriots Defense stifled Lamar Jackson in Week 10 and followed that up by allowing Deshaun Watson to finish as the No. 1 quarterback on the week. Taysom Hill, Kirk Cousins, Philip Rivers and Andy Dalton were the unfamiliar names that found themselves inside the top-10 this week. […]

Gus Edwards (RB, BAL) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We only knew the news barely a few hours ago, but they're quite impactful and could potentially win you the weekend if you are fast and lucky enough to score you some Gus Edwards' shares and have in your lineup for Thanksgiving. Edwards' Week 10 […]

Ravens Place Pernell McPhee On COVID-19 List

The Baltimore Ravens placed outside linebacker Pernell McPhee on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday. It's unclear if McPhee actually tested positive for COVID-19, but either way, he will not be available for the Thanksgiving night matchup against the undefeated Steelers on Thursday. The 31-year-old has 25 tackles (20 solo), 11 QB hits and two sacks […]

Ravens Dealing With COVID-19 Outbreak

The Baltimore Ravens have had five players and four staffers test positive for COVID-19 this week, according to sources. The game on Thanksgiving on Thursday night against the division-rival Steelers is still on, but a source warned that more positives could mean postponing it. It's unclear if the game would be pushed back to the […]

Mark Andrews Looks To Keep Things Going On Thursday

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has been impressive throughout his previous two games, racking up 12 catches (16 targets) for 157 yards and a touchdown. While that type of production would get anyone excited, the 25-year-old will have a tough matchup against an effective Steelers Defense on Thanksgiving. Andrews didn't have a stellar outing […]

Gus Edwards Has Plenty Of Upside In Week 12

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards will likely serve as the team's workhorse in Week 12 against a tough Steelers Defense. With J.K. Dobbins (illness) and Mark Ingram II (illness) both testing positive for COVID-19, the former Scarlet Knight's fantasy stock is the highest it's been all year. Although Justice Hill will be around the […]

Lamar Jackson A Risky Option On Thanksgiving

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson may have his hands full against Pittsburgh on Thursday night. The third-year signal-caller had a rough go against the smothering Steelers Defense just a few weeks ago, finishing with 208 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions to go along with a miserable 46.4 completion percentage. The 23-year-old may put up […]

Brandon Williams Lands On COVID-19 List

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh confirmed that defensive lineman Brandon Williams was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday after he was considered a close contact of running backs Mark Ingram II and J.K. Dobbins, who tested positive for coronavirus. Williams will have to quarantine for five days and will miss the Thanksgiving tilt […]

Dez Bryant Reverts Back To Practice Squad Monday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Dez Bryant was moved back to the practice squad following the team's Week 11 win over Tennessee. While Bryant saw a drastic upswing in usage versus the Titans, even securing four receptions for 28 yards, he cannot be viewed as a fantasy asset in any sized season-long format due to his […]
