Looking at Defensive Opportunities Heading to Week 6

With nearly a third of the fantasy season behind us, we should take a look around to see who is excelling, and who has failed to live up to expectations. Fantasy football is a game built on opportunity, and those who see the patterns being laid down are more likely to end up on top.  […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 6 Fantasy Football Picks

I'll start by repeating something profound I said in my podcast yesterday: Deshaun Watson is good. I'd put him at the top of this column once again, but it's too obvious in a matchup with Cleveland and you should be starting him anyway. Now that we got that out of the way, I'll continue by […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Tight Ends Waiver Wire - Week 6 Pickups and Adds

So here we are, feverishly looking to analyze statistics and projections to […]

Deeper Sleepers for Standard Leagues (Week 6)

Another week, another spate of injuries. This week was headlined (at least from a fantasy perspective) by Odell Beckham Jr., who looks to be out for the rest of the season.

But this is one of those weeks where each game […]

Fantasy Pop Quiz - NFL Questions for Week 5

When I'm not phoning in my once-a-week column, I'm in digital marketing. For the most part it means I'm behind a computer working on one of dozens of things, or on a phone. But this week, I got away from the computer, and after a few years of work at a sports-related startup, I was back […]

Top 10 Fantasy Football Lineup Busts - Week 5

Some anecdotes from my home league that illustrate some thought processes about a few of last week's bust picks: Two weeks ago, two teams in my league made a trade: Dez Bryant for Amari Cooper.

If you play in as many leagues as I do, chances are at least one of your teams was ravaged by injuries in Week 4.
