Jake Kumerow Has Fantasy Value In Deep Leagues This Week
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jake Kumerow has fantasy value in deep leagues in Week 8, but only if things break his way. During the preseason, Kumerow seemed to be the next man up for the Packers if any of their receivers missed time, but it has been Allen Lazard who has seen more of […]
Allen Lazard Has Value Against Kansas City
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard has value in deeper leagues this week against the Kansas City Chiefs due to injured receivers on the team. Davante Adams (toe) has missed the past two matchups and is doubtful for this one, vacating targets for the offense. Lazard played the most snaps among receivers last week and […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 8) - Targets and Avoids
Disaster averted. The Bills found themselves trailing against the lowly Dolphins but pulled it out late. Had Buffalo lost, more than 50 percent of remaining entrants in survivor pools would have been knocked out. The 49ers did their part in the monsoon in D.C while the Patriots cruised against the Jets. All my picks to […]
Davante Adams Doubtful For Sunday Night
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) didn't practice all week and is doubtful for Week 8 against the Chiefs on Sunday night. Continue to leave Adams to your fantasy benches for at least another week. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers spread the ball out to all of his weapons in Week 7, making it tough […]
Davante Adams Not Fully Recovered
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) said his toe isn't fully recovered yet, but he's feeling a lot better. "I’m a little limited right now," Adams said, "but for the most part I can do a lot of different footwork stuff. It’s just the full-speed routes right now that are a little tougher […]
NCAA Prospects To Watch: Week 9
Mock draft season is heating up with some big-name outlets making major changes to their boards – Joe Burrow vaulting into the top spot for some. While there is still time for even more changes, it makes for an exciting time to watch some of these guys rising up boards in order to see if […]
Mason Crosby An Effective Starter This Week
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby could be in line for another week of being an effective starter against the Kansas City Chiefs. Crosby has been accurate all season, missing only one kick back in Week 3. While Crosby was only able to score six points last week against the Oakland Raiders, that was due […]
Packers Defense A Great Streaming Option This Week
The Green Bay Packers Defense could prove to be a great streaming option this week for the matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Typically the Chiefs would be a matchup to avoid, but they are likely to be forced to start backup Matt Moore this week, meaning that the Chiefs are unlikely to be as high-flying […]
Jimmy Graham A Borderline Starter Against Kansas City
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham is a borderline starting tight end against Kansas City this week. Graham has been wildly inconsistent this season but enjoyed one of his best games of the year last week against the Oakland Raiders. The Kansas City Chiefs have given up an average of 7.1 points to the […]
Geronimo Allison Could Have Flex Appeal Against Kansas City
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison could have flex appeal for the upcoming matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. While Marquez Valdes-Scantling has struggled for targets with Davante Adams (toe) out of the lineup, Allison has been given more looks in the offense. While Allison hasn't been able to convert those opportunities into fantasy points, […]
Marquez Valdes-Scantling A Risky Start Against Kansas City
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling is a risky start against the Kansas City Chiefs but has plenty of upside. Valdes-Scantling had an impressive game against the Oakland Raiders last week but only had three targets. The Chiefs are one of the better units against the position, allowing an average of 19.5 points this […]
Jamaal Williams Has Flex Appeal Against Chiefs
Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams could have flex appeal against the Kansas City Chiefs, but only in deeper leagues. Williams has been the rotation back for the Packers this season but has caught a touchdown in his last two games. The Chiefs, however, are one of the worst units in the league at […]
Aaron Jones In RB1 Consideration This Week
Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones is in the RB1 consideration this week for his matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Jones was given the keys to the offense last week after being benched for the majority of Week 6, but he struggled to make an impact. However, the Chiefs are not an effective […]
Aaron Rodgers To Continue His Impressive Form
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers impressed last week against the Oakland Raiders and will look to continue that this week against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs have given up an average of 18.0 points to the position this season, but that number could have been far higher if the Houston Texans hadn't dropped […]
Davante Adams Misses Practice Again
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) stretched for the second straight day on Thursday but did not practice with the team. Adams could be a game-time decision on Sunday night against the Chiefs, but fantasy owners should be prepared to be without him again unless he can get in a limited practice on […]
