Mid-Season Awards: MVP's and LVP's
When it comes to awards, everything is subjective. Some people just go with the best player at each position. That is fine in real football but not in fantasy football. Christian McCaffrey has had the best season as a running back, but as the first or second pick in drafts, he needed to do so […]
Re-Evaluating Strength of Schedule for the Playoffs
We're just days away from crossing the halfway mark of the season. It sucks, I know, but we fantasy owners can't lose time crying and lamenting about what we can't fix. We have to look forward and always be one step ahead of our competition. And that, my friends, means we need to start thinking […]

Plug 'Em In - Fantasy QB Replacements for Patrick Mahomes
There is no firm timetable on the possible return of the best quarterback in fantasy football. Patrick Mahomes may miss three weeks with a dislocated kneecap, but there have been reports indicating he could possibly be back sooner. The best way to approach the guesswork as a fantasy owner is to prepare as if he […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
It's Chase Edmonds' world, we're just living in it. Wait, what? Hopefully you added him, as suggested in this column the past two weeks, because even if David Johnson is deemed healthy enough to actually play, it's likely Edmonds continues to see action. In QB news, by the halfway point of Thursday night, we already had […]

The regular season continues to advance at a relentless pace as we have now entered planning for Week 8.

Week 8 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
Week 7 is over, and a few things have changed. The Los Angeles Rams learned how to play offense again, and the New York Jets came back to Earth, among other things. Week 7 was an especially quiet week for kickers across the NFL. A lot of kickers weren't able to get on the field […]
Week 8 Tight End Waiver Wire Picks and Streamers
A two-team bye week is a lot easier for fantasy football players to navigate than a four-team bye week. Fantasy owners are going to have to live without Dallas’ Jason Witten and Baltimore’s Mark Andrews in Week 8. If you have one of the those players as your starting tight end, the problem is that […]
Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 8
Tragedy struck a few top quarterbacks this week, as both Patrick Mahomes and Matt Ryan left games with injuries. We already know Mahomes will miss 3-6 weeks, while more will be revealed about Ryan's status later today. Either way, owners of these quarterbacks will need a backup plan in place, and this week the waiver […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 8 Lightning Round
The better part of seven weeks is in the fantasy football books, making those early trends very real -- for better or worse. One must still consider the matchups played thus far and those to come, but usage and volume are becoming reliable. Week 8 sees the Ravens and Cowboys hit their bye week. To […]
Hayden Hurst Hauls In One Catch
Baltimore Ravens tight end Hayden Hurst had one reception for 10 yards on two targets in Sunday's Week 7 win against the Seahawks. Hurst has 14 receptions for 141 yards and one touchdown in 2019 and hasn't seen the end zone since Week 2. With Mark Andrews seeing the bulk of Lamar Jackson's targets, Hurst […]
Gus Edwards Has Little Impact In Week 7
Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards carried the ball 8 times for 35 yards in Sunday's Week 7 win against Seattle. Edwards has 52 rushing attempts for 234 yards but has failed to get into the end zone in 2019. Edwards is the clear handcuff to Mark Ingram with Justice Hill barely getting touches, but […]
Justice Hill Not Involved In Week 7
Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill returned two kicks for 21 yards but did not record a carry in Sunday's Week 7 win against the Seahawks. Hill has 18 rushing attempts for 78 yards in 2019 and has been a non-factor in fantasy. In the event that running back Mark Ingram misses time, it will […]
Willie Snead Catch-less In Week 7
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead did not record a catch on his only target and rushed once for two yards in Sunday's Week 7 win against the Seattle Seahawks. Snead has 15 receptions for 223 yards and two touchdowns in 2019. Even with receiver Marquise Brown recovering from an ankle injury, Snead hasn't proven […]
Week 7 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis
Even if this doesn’t turn out to be great MNF game, at least it's a divisional game with some importance. This is what Jets fans need to tell themselves heading into their second Monday Night Football game of the season. With the New England Patriots coming to town off their annual semi-bye in which they […]
Miles Boykin Catches Two Passes In Week 7
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Miles Boykin led the team in receiving in Week 7 against the Seahawks, hauling in both of his targets for 55 yards and no touchdowns. With No. 1 wide receiver Marquise Brown out of the lineup, Boykin was in a prime position to come through against a shaky Seahawks secondary, but […]
Mark Ingram Has Just 13 Touches
Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram carried the ball just 12 times in Week 7 for 46 yards and no touchdowns. Ingram added one catch for seven yards in the passing game in what ended up being a slow day for the ball carrier. The Ravens Defense came to play on Sunday, scoring two touchdowns, […]
Mark Andrews Leads The Ravens In Targets
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews led the team in targets in Week 7 with eight, hauling in just two of them for 39 yards. Andrews had a few brutal drops in a game where the Ravens threw the ball just 20 times. The Ravens face the Patriots coming off their bye in Week 9 […]
Lamar Jackson Gains 116 Yards Rushing
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson didn't light it up through the air in the Ravens 30-16 victory over the Seahawks, going just 9-of-20 passing for 143 yards and no touchdowns. Jackson made up for his shortcomings in the passing game by carrying the ball 14 times for 116 yards and a touchdown, making Week 7 […]
Marquise Brown Inactive Against Seattle
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Seahawks. It's Brown's second straight missed game, and he should be considered questionable for Week 8 as well. In his absence last week, none of Willie Snead, rookie Miles Boykin and Seth Roberts really stood out in the passing […]
