Kareem Hunt Won't Return In Week 10

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that running back Kareem Hunt (calf) will not come off Injured Reserve to play in Week 10 against the New England Patriots. The Browns aren't just going to rush Hunt back because three-fourths of their RB room is on the COVID-19 list this week. With Nick Chubb, rookie […]

Jarvis Landry Won't Practice Wednesday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) will not take part in practice on Wednesday. This shouldn't come as a huge surprise, as Landry continues to miss Wednesday practices before returning later in the week and playing on Sundays. Unless he has a setback, the 28-year-old should be able to play in Week 10 against […]

Key Fantasy Football Data from Week 9

Week 9 was a weird one. Very few things played out the way that the odds said they were likely to, leaving a lot of sharp fantasy players not finding much success. In this post, we will finish the part of the week where we are looking backward by summarizing the week in a bunch […]

Snap Count and Usage Analysis for Week 10

Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production, but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill set. A running […]

Surprise Fantasy Football Studs, Duds - Real or Mirage?

Week 9 was one of the wildest weeks we've had for fantasy football in quite some time. Matt Ryan came off a very disappointing performance in Week 8, only to crush the stingy Saints defense to finish as QB-3, while Carson Wentz and Josh Johnson finished as top-five options in a Thursday night game that […]

Brian Hill Signed To Practice Squad

The Cleveland Browns signed running back Brian Hill to their practice squad on Tuesday after they placed running backs Nick Chubb and Demetric Felton on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. John Kelly also landed on the COVID-19 list on Monday, so with Kareem Hunt (calf) still on Injured Reserve, D'Ernest Johnson is the only RB on the […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

This was one of those "fun" weeks where all the heavy favorites inexplicably lose and things go the opposite of how everyone expected. Josh Allen was supposed to be the QB1 but he was dominated by the Jaguars and... Josh Allen. The Cowboys were a heavy favorite at home versus Denver but got blown out […]

FAAB Waiver Wire Bidding - Week 10 Targets

Alongside our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, this column focuses on suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB).

With nine weeks in the books, we are starting to get to crunch time. It’s not quite desperation time with must-win weeks, but we are getting close to that point. Right now you should have an understanding if you are a true contender or not. Even if you feel you are not a true contender, […]

The Cut List – Who To Drop for Week 10?

Welcome back Brandon Aiyuk! Allen Robinson showed signs of life with over 10 fantasy points this week! Justin Fields looked pretty good on Monday Night Football against the Steelers and it looks like Aiyuk is finally out of Shanahan's dog house. The cute thing about Shanahan's dog house with players is that the coach himself […]

Nick Chubb, Demetric Felton Test Positive For COVID-19

Cleveland Browns running backs Nick Chubb and Demetric Felton have tested positive for COVID-19, according to sources.

If Chubb cannot gain clearance before […]

Week 10 Kicker Streamers and Starts – 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 9... what an absolute cluster. The Buffalo Bills lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars, 9–6. The Broncos went and punched the Cowboys in the mouth and the Cowboys didn't even bother to put up a fight. It was quite the week so it only made sense that after a week of championing Greg Joseph and […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 10 Lightning Round

Week 9 brought all sorts of mayhem in the form of underperforming studs and some wild upsets. We are fortunate when it's "just" that compared to injury chaos, but remember that we're still playing a game where bad breaks can topple you through no fault of your own. Whether you scored a win or took […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It feels like I've been hearing about Sammy Watkins' upcoming return for three months already. Yikes.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After the events that took place last week, this is now far from a desperate WW target and addition. The Browns finally moved on from Odell Beckham Jr. after they opted not to trade him prior to the deadline and he […]

Lions Not In The Market For Odell Beckham Jr.

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that the team will not be in the market for Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. as he goes through the waiver process. Beckham, who forced his way out of Cleveland, will be eligible to be claimed off waivers on Tuesday. There's word that the Seattle Seahawks […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Drawing Interest From Seahawks?

The Seattle Seahawks are reportedly interested in adding wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. after he is released by the Cleveland Browns. It is unlikely a team claims him off waivers, and Beckham is said to prefer signing with a team rather than being claimed. The Seahawks have been notorious for bringing in high-profile names with […]

Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper caught both of his targets for 14 yards in a 41-16 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9.

Jarvis Landry Catches Three Balls In Week 9

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry turned in a quiet afternoon in a 41-16 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9. Landry caught three of five targets for 11 yards and added a rush for no gain. The veteran receiver's slow afternoon can be blamed on a game script that didn't require Cleveland to […]

Chase McLaughlin Makes Two FGs In Week 9

Cleveland Browns kicker Chase McLaughlin made two of his three field goals and added five extra points in a 41-16 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9.
