Randall Cobb Not Practicing Wednesday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (concussion) is not practicing on Wednesday. Cobb has yet to clear the concussion protocol and is in danger of missing Week 16 against the Jets. He really hasn't done much for fantasy owners since the season opener and is more of a WR5 to close out the year. […]

Aaron Rodgers Practicing Wednesday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (groin) was practicing on Wednesday. Rodgers injured his groin last Sunday, and there has been speculation that the Packers might sit him out in a meaningless game in Week 16 against the Jets. The fact that Rodgers is practicing is a good sign for his availability this weekend, however. […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 16

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]

Aaron Jones Placed On Injured Reserve

The Green Bay Packers placed running back Aaron Jones (knee) on the Injured Reserve on Tuesday. Wide receiver Allen Lazard was signed in a corresponding move. Jones said he thought he sprained his knee in the Week 15 loss to the Bears, so the Packers will play it safe and end his season with the […]

FAAB Bidding - Week 16 Waiver Wire Targets

As an addendum to our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, in this column we also present suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB). Finals week is here and that FAAB is as close to useless as […]

Week 16 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

For much of the season, we've seen kickers rarely used on field goal duty, but, in the last couple of weeks, we have seen a large amount of change in that area. Defenses are cashing in on the bad weather to slow opposing offenses down, and that should continue in Week 16. The second round […]

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 16)

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 […]

Aaron Rodgers In Danger Of Missing Week 16?

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (groin) injured his groin in the Week 15 loss to the Bears, although he wants and expects to play in Week 16 against the Jets. Head coach Joe Philbin also wants and expects Rodgers to suit up. With Green Bay officially eliminated from the postseason, it's fair to wonder […]

Randall Cobb In Concussion Protocol

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (concussion) is in the concussion protocol after being evaluated for a concussion in the Week 15 loss to the Bears, according to a source. Cobb had three catches on seven targets for just 30 yards on Sunday and continues to be a weak fantasy option ever since he […]

Mason Crosby Perfect In Week 15

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby made all three of his field goals against the Chicago Bears. The Packers went for two, so Crosby didn't have any extra-point attempts. The Packers are out of playoff contention and may rest starters. Don't expect the offense to score a lot, but Crosby could still put up good […]

Jimmy Graham Has Costly Drop

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham had a costly drop this week against the Chicago Bears. Graham let a ball slip through his hands in the end zone which was intercepted to seal the game. The Packers were eliminated from the playoffs today, and Graham didn't do much to help. He had just three […]

Davante Adams With Yet Another Solid Performance

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams was heavily targeted in the loss to the Chicago Bears. Adams had eight receptions for 119 yards. Adams also caught a two-point conversion. Adams continues to improve on his incredible season each week. Keep plugging him into your lineups as he has been the most reliable wide receiver […]

Randall Cobb Disappoints In Week 15

After a nice performance in Week 14, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb disappointed fantasy owner again in Week 15. He wasn't expected to have a huge game, but he still under-performed. This game was probably the best scenario for Randall Cobb for the rest of the season. Cobb ended with just three catches […]

Green Bay Defense Toothless In Week 15

The Green Bay Packers defense/special teams unit failed to do much of anything against a mediocre Chicago Bears offense in Week 15. The Packers defense/special teams has been ravaged by injuries and had only a handful of their preferred starts on the day. They relied largely on practice squad players and street free agents to […]

Jamaal Williams Moves Into Starting Role

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams assumed starting duties following an injury to running back Aaron Jones (knee) in a Week 15 matchup against the Chicago Bears. Williams began the season as the starter but was underwhelming and eventually ceded most of his touches to Jones. Jones is feared to have sprained his MCL […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Overtaken On Depth Chart

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling was overtaken on the depth chart by fellow rookie wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown for the No. 3 WR role in a Week 15 matchup against the Chicago Bears. Valdes-Scantling broke out earlier this year with a handful of big games that showed some promise. The tall […]

Aaron Jones Believed To Have Sprained MCL

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (knee) is believed to have sprained his MCL in a Week 15 matchup against the Chicago Bears. The injury is not thought to be serious, but it may spell and end to Jones’ season. Jones suffered the injury early in […]

Aaron Rodgers Sputters In Week 15

Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers had arguably his worst game of the year in Week 15 against the Chicago Bears. He threw for 274 yards on 25-for-42 passing with no touchdowns and one interception. It was Rodgers’ first interception since Week 4. Rodgers accuracy issues have been a little overblown this season but he was […]

Aaron Jones Injured Sunday

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (knee) suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of the Week 15 game against the Bears and was ruled out after halftime. Jones had only four carries for eight yards and didn't have a target in the passing game before going down. That'll hurt badly for his […]

Week 15 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 15 Fantasy Football Picks

I'll keep it short and sweet here - you need to win and I want you to win. That's where the ol' gut comes in. See, there are many reasons to think Cousins won't throw the ball very often this week, Edwards will see a reduced workload, McKenzie has too low a ceiling to start […]
