Browns Defense A Strong Fantasy Option In Week 3
The Cleveland Browns Defense is a solid fantasy option for their Week 3 matchup against the Washington Football Team. Washington's offense has not been very potent through two weeks, scoring 42 total points and while allowing seven sacks and committing two turnovers. Cleveland is installed as a seven-point home favorite in a game that could […]
Austin Hooper A Low-End TE2 In Week 3
Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper is off to a slow start with his new team. The veteran tight end has caught just four of six targets for 37 yards through two games. Last year's overall TE6 was certainly expected to perform better by those who drafted him this summer. Hooper will go up against […]
Jarvis Landry A WR3 In Week 3
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry is off to a slow start in the 2020 season. The usual target-hog has turned nine targets into eight catches for 107 scoreless yards in two games. The new Cleveland offense has been run-heavy, as expected under Kevin Stefanski, which has limited Landry thus far. The veteran wideout will […]
Odell Beckham Jr. A WR2 In Week 3
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is coming off a productive game in a Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Beckham caught four passes for 74 yards and a touchdown in the win. He will go up against a leaky secondary employed by the Washington Football Team in Week 3. While Washington doesn't […]
Kareem Hunt In The RB2 Mix In Week 3
Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt has been effective through his first two games of the 2020 season. Hunt has racked up 158 rushing yards, 24 receiving yards, and two total touchdowns so far this season. Adding to his value is the fact that he and Nick Chubb are splitting the backfield work much more […]
Nick Chubb Draws Favorable Week 3 Matchup
Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb has a favorable Week 3 matchup against the Washington Football Team. Washington's defense has been stout against the pass through two games but has struggled to contain opposing running backs, ranking just 21st in run defense DVOA. Kareem Hunt's increased role in the offense through two games makes Chubb's […]
Baker Mayfield A Low-End QB2 In Week 3
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield turned in a serviceable performance in a Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals as he tossed two touchdowns and notched 219 passing yards. He will face off against the Washington Football Team at home in Week 3 in what could be a tough matchup. While Washington's secondary has been […]

Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
After an abbreviated preseason with no games and irregular training routines, many expected to see a slew of injuries in the first week of action. Instead, it was Week 2 that inflicted devastating news to several NFL players and franchises, particularly running backs. In the fantasy world, the impact will be felt drastically for those […]
Jack Conklin Expected To Play In Week 3
Cleveland Browns right tackle Jack Conklin (ankle) is over his ankle injury and is "ready to go," according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. Conklin appeared in the team's Week 1 loss to the Baltimore Ravens but sat out last Thursday night in a Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. When asked, he said: "Ankle’s […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 3 Lightning Round

Prior to SNF, we've seen the following offensive players injured to some degree: Saquon Barkley, Christian McCaffrey, Davante Adams, Raheem Mostert, Cam Akers, Courtland Sutton, Parris Campbell, Sterling Shepard, Breshad Perriman, Jimmy Garoppolo, Drew Lock, and […]
Week 2 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!
In Week 2, the quarterback position was fairly predictable as Dak Prescott, Cam Newton, Josh Allen, Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray finished in the top-five with Matt Ryan and Patrick Mahomes finishing as QB-6 and QB-7, respectively. The main surprise from Week 2 was Lamar Jackson's modest performance, barely finishing inside the top-20 as the […]

Baker Mayfield (QB, CLE) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 48% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Baker Mayfield barely made it to my weekly waiver wire posts, but his under-50% rostered rate was enough for me to consider writing about him. Mayfield is far from an unknown asset, that's right, but it doesn't make much sense to still find him […]
Odell Beckham Jr. Not On Trading Block
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will not be traded and the team has no plans to do so in the future, according to Adam Schefter. There was speculation that Beckham was on the block after a disappointing loss to the Ravens in Week 1, though the Browns insist that this was never a […]

Top 10 Fantasy Football Busts for Week 2
With so much roster turnover in the NFL each year, it can be especially difficult to predict outcomes in opening-week matchups.

Coaching Matters: Offenses That Will Improve From Week 1
In fantasy football, we try to take as much data into account before making a conclusion on players.

After much research, I've developed a broad knowledge of how each […]
