Baker Mayfield Leads Browns To Win On Thursday
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield led his team to a 21-17 win over the New York Jets on Thursday night. Taking over for a concussed Tyrod Taylor at the end of the second quarter, Mayfield finished the evening with 201 passing yards while completing 17 of his 23 pass attempts. The rookie quarterback's presence was […]
Tyrod Taylor Ruled Out With Concussion
Updating a previous report, Cleveland Browns quarterback Tyrod Taylor (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of the Thursday night game against the Jets with a concussion. Taylor was terrible in the first half, going 4-for-14 for 19 yards while also rushing four times for 22 yards. In his place, rookie Baker Mayfield took […]
Baker Mayfield Makes NFL Debut On Thursday Night
Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield, the No. 1 overall pick, entered the game on Thursday late in the second quarter against the Jets to replace the injured Tyrod Taylor (head). It remains to be seen if Taylor will be cleared to return in the second half, but even if he is, the Browns will […]
Tyrod Taylor Being Evaluated For Concussion
Cleveland Browns quarterback Tyrod Taylor (head) is being evaluated for a concussion at the end of the first half on Thursday against the Jets. Taylor was atrocious in the first two quarters, going 4-for-14 for just 19 yards. He also ran four times for 22 yards. Even if Taylor is cleared to return to this […]
Jarvis Landry Active Thursday
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) is active for the Week 3 game against the Jets on Thursday. Landry was never in danger of missing this contest as the team's top receiver. He has a healthy 22 targets through two games and should see even more looks moving forward now that Josh Gordon is […]
Carlos Hyde Expected To Play Thursday
Cleveland Browns running back Carlos Hyde is expecting the birth of his child on Thursday but is expected to go straight from the hospital to the stadium to play, according to a couple of team sources. Hyde isn't listed among the team's inactives for Thursday's game against the Jets, so they believe he'll be there […]

RotoBaller fantasy football lead editor Pierre Camus (@pfunk00) and writer Chris Mangano (@ChrisMangano) give their start/sit recommendations at the tight end position for Week 3 of the fantasy football season.

Jarvis Landry Expected To Play Thursday
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee), who is questionable for Thursday's game against the Jets with a knee injury, is expected to play. This was always the expectation, as Landry was limited on the short week. He's been a target hog like usual for Cleveland and should see even more looks with Josh Gordon […]
Browns Ready For Antonio Callaway To Step Up
The Cleveland Browns are counting on rookie Antonio Callaway to step up as the X receiver after the team traded Josh Gordon to the Patriots this week. He showcased his ability in Week 2 with a 47-yard touchdown catch against the Saints. “He is making strides,” head coach Hue Jackson said Tuesday as the Browns […]
Seth DeValve Ruled Out For Week 3
Cleveland Browns tight end Seth DeValve (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Jets on Thursday. DeValve hasn't played yet this year and is buried on the depth chart, so you can ignore him in fantasy. David Njoku is the tight end to own in Cleveland as a low-end TE1.
Jarvis Landry Questionable For Thursday Night
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) is listed as questionable on the final injury report for Week 3 against the Jets on Thursday night. Landry got in limited practices on the short week, so we'd expect him to be fine to play, but make sure you check the inactives just to be sure. The […]
David Njoku A TE2 In Week 3
Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku has gotten off to a slow start in 2018, catching just seven of his 14 targets for 33 scoreless yards. Njoku possesses plenty of talent, but he and quarterback Tyrod Taylor have struggled to get on the same page this season. The second-year tight end will look to find […]
Antonio Callaway Looks To Build On Week 2 Success
With Josh Gordon out of the picture, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Antonio Callaway made the most of his increased opportunities to play in Week 2. Callaway hauled in three passes for 81 yards, including the play of the game when he caught a 47-yard touchdown from Tyrod Taylor. After playing 80.6% of the offensive snaps […]
Jarvis Landry A Solid WR2 In Week 3
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry has posted a solid 12 catches for 175 yards through his first two games of the season. He has been limited with a knee issue this week but all signs point towards him being able to suit up against the New York Jets on Thursday night. The Jets have […]
Duke Johnson Hoping To Be More Involved In Week 3
Cleveland Browns running back Duke Johnson has gone criminally underused through the first two weeks of the NFL season. Despite being one of Cleveland's top playmakers, Johnson has seen just 11 total touches, eight carries and three receptions in Todd Haley's offense. Head coach Hue Jackson vowed to the media on Tuesday that they would […]
Carlos Hyde Looks To Make It Three Straight Weeks With A TD
Cleveland Browns running back Carlos Hyde hasn't posted very impressive rushing numbers through the first two weeks of the season, gaining just 105 yards on 38 rushes for a 2.8 yard-per-carry average while catching just two passes. The veteran runner has scored two touchdowns, which has helped to elevate him to the RB24 in overall […]
Tyrod Taylor A QB2 On Thursday Night
Cleveland Browns quarterback Tyrod Taylor heads into his Thursday night Week 3 matchup as the QB17 in scoring in six-point-per-touchdown pass leagues. The veteran signal-caller has been mostly mediocre for the Browns in his first two games, passing for 443 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions while rushing for 103 yards and a score. He […]

Week 3 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
Week 2 has wrapped up, and, while some kickers put up some great numbers, others kicked themselves out of a job. Through two weeks, we've seen multiple surprises at the top of the kicker scorers.

Below you will find our FAAB auction bidding recommendations for those playing in FAAB waiver wire leagues. As a caveat, these prices do not by any means […]
Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions
Up is down, black is white, cats and dogs are living together. Ryan Fitzpatrick is the best QB in football (OK, behind Pat Mahomes) and Blake Bortles doubled Aaron Rodgers in fantasy points this week. Also, Joe Mixon, Devonta Freeman, and Leonard Fournette are sidelined by injuries while Le'Veon Bell continues to sideline himself. Also, […]
Seth DeValve Out Again Tuesday
Cleveland Browns tight end Seth DeValve (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day on Tuesday. DeValve hasn't played at all this year and is buried on the depth chart when he's healthy, so he is well off the fantasy radar. David Njoku continues to serve as the main pass-catching tight end and has low-end […]
Browns Want To Get Duke Johnson More Work
Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson said the team needs to get running back Duke Johnson more opportunities moving forward. Johnson only has eight carries (20 yards, 2.5 yards per carry) and three catches for 15 yards in two games in 2018. Johnson is good out in space, but with both Carlos Hyde and rookie […]
Jarvis Landry Limited Again Tuesday
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) was limited in practice again on Tuesday. There's no indication that Landry's knee injury will keep him out of Thursday's contest against the Jets, so the Browns are likely just resting him on a short week. Landry has a healthy 22 targets (12 catches, 175 yards) through two […]
Week 3 Running Backs - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
After two weeks of game action, anyone who drafted Leonard Fournette, Devonta Freeman, or Joe Mixon has already been confronted with having their early-round pick sidelined due to injury. That has automatically launched the unwanted process of monitoring a situation that is fraught with uncertainty for those of you who own Fournette and Freeman, while […]
Week 3 Wide Receivers - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
It’s time to start prepping for Week 3 waiver wire additions and I have you covered for wide receivers. As I was looking up players to add for this article, I was shocked to see some of the names that are still not at least 50% owned in fantasy leagues. A couple of them will […]
Week 3 Quarterbacks - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
We had another wild and woolly week of action in the NFL, and some big quarterback performances from unlikely sources once again in Week 2. Many owners prefer to set and forget at quarterback, but for those of us that like to play the streaming game we've got to be on top of matchups every […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 3 Lightning Round
There's always some degree of insanity at the outset of a new football season, but 2018 feels like quite the beast in this regard. We've got players being thrust into the spotlight due to injuries and sheer force of will -- some are new names, some very familiar -- but how can you keep up […]
Tavon Austin (WR, DAL) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: What year is it? This is a name that makes me question that whole bizarro NFL thing. Dallas Cowboys wider receiver Tavon Austin is the ultimate hype train that never really panned out. Marred by injuries and sporadic usage, Austin was always disappointing […]
Deeper Sleepers Heading Into Week 3
Ryan Fitzpatrick is the leading MVP candidate. There have been two ties in two weeks. Josh Gordon is a Patriot. James Conner has more fantasy points than both Odell Beckham and Aaron Rodgers. And, although not really fantasy related, the Bills are so bad that Vontae Davis retired from football at halftime. No, this isn't […]
