Week 2 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2024 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Kickers are cool, I promise. Week 1 proved that. In Sunday's matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and the Cleveland Browns, Dallas kicker Brandon Aubrey connected on a 66-yard field goal. Unfortunately, a delay of game penalty occurred on offense. If the kick counted, Aubrey would have tied with Justin Tucker for the all-time longest field […]

Hello, RotoBallers, and welcome to Week 2 of the High-Powered Offenses column. Week 1 was full of surprises, not all good ones.

Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups for Fantasy Football - Free Agent Adds For RB, WR, TE, QB (2024)

Week 1 never disappoints in terms of providing outcomes we never saw coming. So, in that sense, Week 1 always disappoints. Amon-Ra St. Brown was invisible. Jameson Williams broke out.

The Cut List – Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 2

While we all spend an absurd time preparing for our fantasy football, the championships are won on the waiver wire. Even the greatest of drafters have far more misses than they have hits.

Jermaine Burton Making Progress

Week 1 of the 2024 NFL campaign had plenty of excitement, but there weren't many surprising performances from players available on deep league waivers. Last year in Week 1, we saw players like Puka Nacua, Tyler Allgeier, and Jakobi Meyers have fantastic season-opening games. This year, the choices are less obvious, so we'll have to […]
