Waiver Wire Express - Week 4 Lightning Round
The better part of three weeks is in the fantasy football books, making those early trends very real -- for better or worse. One must still consider the matchups played thus far and those to come, but usage and volume are becoming reliable. Week 4 also brings the first bye week, with the Jets and […]
Week 4 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
The main story of Week 3 was the fill-in quarterbacks...and how effective some of them were. That's going to throw a lot of our analysis of defenses into turmoil, and we've gotta be ready for Week 4.

Week 4 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
Let us all give thanks for Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri finally getting back to the successful kicking ways that we expect from him. Heading into Monday night's game, he was tied for third among kickers on the week with 10 points. It's good to see the legend get back on track. In Week 4, […]
The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 4)
This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]
Packers Defense A Streaming Option This Week
The Green Bay Packers Defense could be a viable streaming option this week for fantasy owners against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Packers D has been an effective unit so far this season, due in part to the additions made in free agency. So far this season the Packers have been able to be a constant […]
Mason Crosby An Effective Streaming Option Against Eagles
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby presents an effective streaming option for fantasy owners against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Packers offense has a great opportunity to score touchdowns this week with the Eagles Defense struggling this season. However, if the offense stalls as it has done this season, then the veteran kicker is likely to […]
Geronimo Allison Has Limited Fantasy Appeal Against Eagles
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison has limited fantasy appeal, even in a good matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Much like the Packers passing offense, Allison has been inconsistent this season. But if there was a time to get back on track, this would be the game. The Eagles have given up an average […]
Jimmy Graham Limited Tuesday
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (groin, quadriceps) got in a limited practice on Tuesday after sitting out on Monday. Graham is dealing with some nagging injuries, but he should be active Thursday night against the Eagles. The 32-year-old veteran doesn't appear to have much left in the tank in his career, and he […]
Marquez Valdes-Scantling Offers Flex Appeal Against Eagles
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling is an interesting flex option against a struggling Philadelphia Eagles team. The second-year receiver has shown flashes of his athletic ability this season but hasn't been a consistent performer, making it a tough choice to put him into a starting role. However, the Eagles have struggled to stop […]
Davante Adams Has Great Opportunity To Break Scoring Drought
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams has a great opportunity to break his scoring drought against the Philadelphia Eagles this week. The Packers passing offense has been inconsistent so far this season, but have had some tough matchups to date. The Eagles have given up an average of 32.2 points to the position so […]
Jamaal Williams Holds Little Value In Tough Matchup
Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams holds little fantasy value for the upcoming game against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles defensive unit has been effective this season in limiting opposing running backs. The team has given up just 12.9 points to the position so far this season, which is only bettered by four teams […]
Aaron Jones Could Struggle In Matchup Against Eagles
Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones could struggle to provide RB1 value this week in a tough matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Jones struggled in the Week 3 encounter against the Denver Broncos, but managed to save his week with two touchdowns. However, the Eagles are one of the best units in the league […]
Aaron Rodgers Has Chance To Impress Against Eagles
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a chance to get back on track and impress this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. Rodgers has struggled so far this season in the team's new offense but has faced tough competition. Rodgers easiest matchup was against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2. The Vikings have given up […]
Deeper League Free Agent Pickups for Week 4
Three weeks into the season we can start to finally suss out the difference between flukes and trends. If a player has one or two unexpectedly great games to start the year, that could be a coincidence. If a player has three straight? That's a sign they're balling capabilities ought to be taken seriously. And […]
Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams On Week 4 Injury Report
Green Bay Packers running backs Aaron Jones (shoulder) and Jamaal Williams (neck) were both listed on Monday's estimated injury report as limited participants. Jones helped fantasy owners with two touchdowns, but he rushed for just 19 yards and had two fewer carries than Williams. Williams also saw two targets in the passing game to Jones' […]
Jimmy Graham Still Beat Up
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (groin, quadriceps) was listed as a non-participant on the estimated injury report for Monday. Graham is also dealing with thigh and finger injuries. The veteran tight end continues to become less attractive in fantasy by the day. He played less than half the offensive snaps in Week 3 […]
Green Bay Packers Defense Constant Threat In Victory
Green Bay Packers Defense was a constant threat in the victory over the Denver Broncos. The Packers put Joe Flacco under consistent pressure, recording six sacks and an interception in the game, as well as seven tackles for a loss while also recovering two fumbles. The defense has been able to bring a level of […]
Mason Crosby Misses Kick In Victory Over Broncos
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby missed his first kick of the season in the victory over the Denver Broncos. Crosby entered this game having converted all four PATs and a single field goal this season, but missed a field goal in this matchup. Crosby finished the game with two converted field goals off of […]
Jimmy Graham Doesn't Catch A Pass In Win Over Denver
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham failed to catch a single catch in the victory over the Denver Broncos. Graham has now had two consecutive games with the same box score, one target, and zero receptions. He started the season as a useful part of the Packers offense but has since stalled. Nonetheless, the […]
Geronimo Allison Continues To Struggle In Victory
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison continued to struggle to make an impact in the victory over the Denver Broncos. Allison has been inconsistent since the start of the season, finishing this game with a single reception for one negative yard. Allison was looking as though he would be a key part of the […]
Marquez Valdes-Scantling Flashes In Victory Over Denver
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling flashed some results on the field in the victory over the Denver Broncos. Valdes-Scantling finished the game with six receptions for 99 yards and a touchdown, leading the team with ten targets. Valdes-Scantling impressed on the opening drive, catching a 40-yard pass for a touchdown, showcasing his downfield […]
Davante Adams Struggles In Victory
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams struggled for the second consecutive week in the victory over the Denver Broncos. Adams finished the game catching all four of his targets for 56 yards and, more crucially, continued his streak of not getting into the endzone. Adams has now had three consecutive games without a touchdown, […]
Jamaal Williams Impresses In Victory Over Denver
Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams was able to impress in the Packers victory over the Denver Broncos. Williams finished the game with 59 yards from 12 attempts on the ground and caught both of his targets for 27 yards. Interestingly, Williams out-touched Aaron Jones in the matchup. Williams had previously been more involved […]
Aaron Jones Strikes Twice In Victory Over Denver
Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones scored two touchdowns against the Denver Broncos, saving his fantasy value for the week.

Interestingly, given the […]
Aaron Rodgers Lead Packers To Victory
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers led his team to victory over the Denver Broncos on Sunday. However, despite the victory, Rodgers didn't have a great game for fantasy owners. Rodgers finished the game completing 17 of his 29 attempts for 235 yards and a single touchdown, as well as one negative rushing yard. Rodgers […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 3) - Targets and Avoids
The Patriots look unstoppable, the Steelers look like toast, and the Ravens look like they'll control the AFC North. I gave out the Pats and Ravens, got burned on Pitt, but wisely avoided the Panthers. Like I wrote last week, don't overreact just yet. It's only two games. I understand it's already an eighth of […]
