Week 3 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

Through two weeks of the NFL season, my hit rate on projecting non-quarterback busts has been pretty strong, but when it comes to predicting which quarterbacks would struggles...man, it's been tough. Ryan Fitzpatrick in Week 2 and Patrick Mahomes in Week 1... Still, it's Week 3, and we're starting to get some better data to […]

Week 3 Consistency Reports - All Positions

Assessing consistency after two weeks of the season is always tough but in a 16-game season we have already seen an eighth of it. Therefore, looking at how players have started the season is still useful. It may not be a predictor of long-term fantasy consistency but it does give us an impression of who […]

Time to Bench Alex Collins?

Baltimore Ravens running back Alex Collins has struggled to get anything going on the ground so far this season. The question becomes what should fantasy owners do with a running back that is immensely talented, but has failed to live up to expectations? Coming into the season, Collins was ranked among the top-20 fantasy running […]

WR/CB Matchups to Target in DFS (Week 3)

In Week 2, we unfortunately bore witness to some notable running back injuries including Dalvin Cook, Melvin Gordon, Joe Mixon, Jay Ajayi, and LeSean McCoy. On a more positive note, Aaron Rodgers was able to play thanks to a cumbersome knee brace and even threw a TD to his go-to receiver, Davante Adams. Now as we […]

Aaron Rodgers Questionable Against Redskins

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 3 against the Redskins. Rodgers is expected to get in a limited practice again this Saturday and then suit up on Sunday. It'd be the same routine he went through last weekend before playing against the Vikings. As long as Rodgers is […]

Fantasy Football Q&A Mailbag - Week 3

Week 2 of the 2018 NFL Season is in the books, and what a wild ride it has been so far. Matt Breida leads the NFL in rushing, David Johnson is ranked outside of the top 25 in fantasy points at his position, Ryan Fitzpatrick is the number one overall fantasy player, Patrick Mahomes has […]

Aaron Rodgers Expected To Practice Saturday

Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said it's the goal for quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) to practice on Saturday. It's the same routine that Rodgers went through last week when he played all of the Week 3 tie against the Vikings. Expect him to be less than 100 percent again but still play against […]

Sleeping in Seattle - Is Russell Wilson No Longer a QB1?

The thing about writing a "bold predictions" article is that you're essentially going 20 percent on data and 80 percent on gut instincts, so when I wrote a few weeks ago that Russell Wilson would finish outside of the top 10 at the quarterback position I definitely felt like there was a chance of it […]

Aaron Rodgers Won't Practice Thursday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) will work with the rehab group again on Thursday, which means he won't practice. The team is following the same format as last week when Rodgers didn't practice until Saturday.

Aaron Rodgers Concerned He'll Make Knee Worse

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) is concerned that his left knee could worsen if he continues to play on it. He played with a brace on his knee in Week 2 against the Vikings and made it through the whole game, but he admitted that his knee "obviously won't be 100 percent, so […]

Aaron Rodgers Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) did not get in a practice on Wednesday. The Packers will probably take it easy on Rodgers as he fights through a knee injury early in the season.

Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said cornerback Kevin King (groin) will be "hard-pressed to play this week" against the Redskins. The team is hoping King can be back soon if he misses Week 3. King is a starting cornerback for Green Bay, so his absence would be good news for Washington quarterback Alex […]

Aaron Jones Third In Pecking Order

Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said that running backs Jamaal Williams and Ty Montgomery are ahead of Aaron Jones, who is returning from his two-game suspension in Week 3. "Jamaal and Ty have played good football. I know what Aaron gives us, but his role will be secondary. Jamaal and Ty will be […]

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis.

Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions

Up is down, black is white, cats and dogs are living together.

Also, Joe Mixon, Devonta Freeman, and Leonard Fournette are sidelined by injuries while Le'Veon Bell continues to sideline himself. Also, […]

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 […]

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 […]

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 3)

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 Finding Success Early

The Green Bay Packers defense looks much better this year with the additions of Jaire Alexander and Josh Jackson via the draft. Ha Ha Clinton-Dix got an interception against Kirk Cousins. Geronimo Allison blocked a punt early in the game that Josh Jackson recovered for a touchdown. The Packers face Alex Smith this week. Smith […]

Mason Crosby Has Huge Week Despite Crucial Miss

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby was busy against the Minnesota Vikings last week. Crosby made five field goals and two extra-points.
