Still Hope That Geronimo Allison Will Be Cleared

There remains hope that Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison (concussion) can be cleared from the concussion protocol in order to play in Week 5 against the Lions on Sunday. Time is running out, though, and there's still a good chance Allison doesn't play. He had six catches on a season-high 11 targets for […]

Davante Adams To Practice Saturday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (calf) will return to practice on Saturday. It's a good sign for Adams, but he's likely to be questionable for Week 5 against the Lions and could even be a game-time decision. Adams is clearly the team's No. 1 wideout and quarterback Aaron Rodgers' favorite target. If he's […]

Blake Bortles Should Be Your Starting Quarterback

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles was seen as a huge bust through the first three and a half years of his career. But he seems to have turned things around over the last 10 or so regular season games. Bortles helped the Jags to their first playoff appearance since 2007 last year. Jacksonville selected the […]

Randall Cobb Ruled Out For Week 5

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Lions. Cobb will have missed the team's last two games now, and he won't be a lock to return in Week 6. With Cobb out and Davante Adams (calf) and Geronimo Allison (concussion) questionable, the Packers may have […]

Jamaal Williams Could Still Produce In Week 5

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams has seemingly lost his role as the team's top back with the return of a more productive Aaron Jones. That said, double digit touches could be enough to produce solid statistical day against a Lions run defense that has routinely made average running backs look like LaDainian Tomlinson […]

Aaron Jones Gets Worst Run Defense In Week 5

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones is in a prime spot against a Lions run defense that has made Isaiah Crowell and Matt Breida look like All-Pros, allowing 60-plus-yard touchdown runs to both in back-to-back weeks to open their season. Last Sunday, the alarming trend continued when Zeke Elliott gained 240 total (152 rushing) […]

Aaron Rodgers Faces Struggling Lions Defense In Week 5

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers squares up against one of the worst defenses in football in Detroit Sunday afternoon. This week, the Lions could be without secondary starters Quandre Diggs (broken hand) and Nevin Lawson (undisclosed--not practicing Thursday), from what is an already leaky group to begin with, allowing almost eight yards per pass […]

Aaron Rodgers Returns To Practice Thursday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. It's the same routine that Rodgers went through last week. He will play in Week 5 against the Lions, but he might be just a low-end QB1 with receivers Davante Adams (calf), Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison […]

Randall Cobb, Geronimo Allison Missing Practice Again

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion) are both out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Cobb is working with the rehab group, while Allison remains in the concussion protocol. Both players are starting to look doubtful for Week 5 against the Lions unless they can return […]

Jimmy Graham's Injury Not Serious

Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said that tight end Jimmy Graham (knee) missing practice on Wednesday was just "maintenance" for his knee and nothing serious. It's the same routine that Graham went through last week, so we should expect him to return to practice on Thursday and play in Week 5 against the […]

Davante Adams To Miss Another Practice

Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said that wide receiver Davante Adams (calf) injured himself in practice on Wednesday and he will work with the rehab group on Thursday. That's now two missed practices for Adams, which isn't a good sign for his availability on Sunday against the Lions. His practice status on Friday […]

The Real Corey Davis Has Arrived

The fifth overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, Corey Davis has shown us just a small dosage of what he is capable of during his time in the league. His production thus far since being drafted had not been anything to get excited about, especially considering the price the Tennessee Titans paid to get […]

Fantasy Football Q&A Mailbag - Week 5

Week 4 of the 2018 NFL Season is in the books, and here is a quick fantasy recap to keep you up to date. Mitchell Trubisky! Six touchdown passes, 43.5 fantasy points, who saw that coming? Meanwhile, Drew Brees, Matthew Stafford, Philip Rivers, Tom Brady, Carson Wentz, Aaron Rodgers, and Ben Roethlisberger all finished outside […]

Geronimo Allison Gaining Trust From Aaron Rodgers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison has been gaining the trust of quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Allison didn't practice on Wednesday due to a concussion, but that could just be the Packers being cautious. Teams are often very cautious when it comes to concussion protocol. Keep an eye on his status closer to time. Allison […]

Randall Cobb Questionable For Week 5

Green Bay Packer wide receiver Randall Cobb is still trying to recover from a hamstring injury. He didn't play in Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills, and he missed practice on Wednesday. It doesn't look good for Cobb at this point because even though he could still make a start on Sunday against the Detroit […]

Davante Adams Limited In Practice Ahead Of Week 5

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams was a limited participant in practice Wednesday with a calf injury. He should be good to go on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. He draws a tough matchup against Darius Slay this week. Adams has been solid as was to be expected this year, but he hasn't had […]

Jimmy Graham Misses Practice But Should Start Week 5

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham missed Wednesday's practice with a knee injury. It's unclear if it's just precautionary or if the injury had him incapable of practicing. Given that Graham is the Packers main talent at the position, they most likely are just being careful with the veteran. Keep an eye on his […]

Davante Adams Puts In Limited Practice

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (calf) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Adams should not be in any danger of sitting out in Week 5 against the Lions. He will likely be shadowed by cornerback Darius Slay, but Adams remains a WR1 as long as quarterback Aaron Rodgers is throwing him passes. The […]

Jimmy Graham Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. The Packers are likely just resting their veteran tight end early in the week. Graham caught three of his six targets for 21 yards and his first touchdown of the season last weekend. If both wideouts Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison […]

Muhammad Wilkerson Expected To Make Full Recovery

Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Muhammad Wilkerson (ankle) is expected to make a full recovery after having season-ending ankle surgery on Tuesday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Wilkerson was injured in Week 3 against the Redskins and was placed on Injured Reserve last week. He had signed a one-year, $4.7 million deal with Green […]

Aaron Rodgers To Have Similar Schedule This Week

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) will sit out of practice on Wednesday and rehab while possibly practicing Thursday and Saturday. It's the same thing he did last week. Rodgers' knee will likely continue to limit what he can do on game days, but he remains a must-start as long as he's active. In […]

Randall Cobb, Geronimo Allison Not Practicing

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion) are not practicing on Wednesday. Cobb is working with the rehab group and Allison has yet to clear the concussion protocol. Head coach Mike McCarthy said that rookie Marquez Valdes-Scantling and the other rookie wideouts will "have a role." There's a good chance […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 5

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. […]

Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions

Life is easy if you have Todd Gurley or Alvin Kamara. Sadly, statistics say that only 8.3% of all fantasy owners in a typical 12-team league will own one of these players. That number drops further the more teams in your league. Lucky for you, we're here to help. The running back scene can be […]

Week 5 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 4 saw several high scoring games for offenses around the league. When offenses score more points, kickers get more swings of the leg, which means they are scoring us more points. While some of the usual suspects were at the top of the charts, we some saw new faces like Matt McCrane and Ka'imi […]

Green Bay Packers Defense Looks Strong In Week 4

The Green Bay Packers defense showed up to play on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. They were able to shutout the Bills in this contest, and that was the key to winning because the offense wasn't all that great in this one. It's been a long time since the Packers won in this fashion, because […]

Mason Crosby Had High Fantasy Value In Week 4

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby had a pretty good game as far as fantasy production is concerned. He did miss one of his two extra-point attempts, but he went three-for-three in his field goal attempts and hit a big 52 yard field goal. Most leagues give extra points for field goals over 50 yards […]

Jamaal Williams Struggles Again In Week 4

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams still saw 11 carries in Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills, but he was not able to generate many yards. He only managed to get 27 yards on Sunday, and he didn't have any targets in the receiving game which is where he has most of his value. […]

Week 5 Wide Receivers - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Bye-weeks are here, and this is the most important time to work the waiver wire. If you set your roster up during the draft to deal with bye-weeks, then you may be in good shape. However, injuries and changing rosters for most owners haven’t left them in a situation that is as comfortable. Now they […]
