Futures Market - Dynasty League Quarterbacks

This year was extraordinarily brutal for quarterbacks in the NFL. Andrew Luck never played a snap. Ryan Tannehill was lost in the preseason. Sam Bradford was gone after Week 1. Almost every week, it seemed like a starting quarterback with significant fantasy value was lost. Aaron Rodgers, Carson Palmer, Deshaun Watson all were put on […]

Players Sending Out Warning Signals: Heading Into Week 16

To those of you that are playing for a championship in Week 16, well done, you have reached the heights that we all set out for way back in August and September. Now is the time to go with your gut and make the roster decisions to end all roster decisions and put yourself in the best position […]

Saturday Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 16)

The fantasy season is coming to a close... For many leagues, Week 16 represents the culmination of all the hard work put into offseason preparation, start/sit decisions, and waiver wire adds. All that is left between you and fantasy glory is one final week where it all comes together. The championship is on the line […]

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. […]

Week 16 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Week 15 kicked off with Kareem Hunt’s “Allow me to reintroduce myself” show and, among many other storylines, crescendoed with Antonio Brown suffering a partially torn calf muscle, likely ending his fantasy/regular season. Davante Adams (head) and Rex Burkhead (knee) are also both hoping to avoid missing time. If possible, you’re absolutely adding Martavis Bryant […]

FAAB Auction Waiver Wire Bidding - Week 16 Pickups

Welcome to Week 16 everyone. If you're still alive in your fantasy league, you're either in the semi-finals or playing for all the marbles in the fantasy championship.

Running Backs Waiver Wire - Week 16 Pickups and Adds

Hopefully you're secure with your running back and/or flex situation, because the waiver wire cupboard is pretty bare at the position. Unless you were clever enough to play the Jaguars' fourth and fifth string running backs, you probably got very little off the wire in Week 15. Pickings are even slimmer this week, but you […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 15 Fantasy Football Picks

Let's start by addressing the fluffy, pink elephant wearing a tutu and dancing on your forehead in the room, which is the fact that you're here looking for QB advice because you've ridden Carson Wentz to the playoffs and now he's gone. Poof, just like that. Rather than another diatribe about how it's the worst […]

Nothing is more important than matchup analyzation when it comes to fantasy football.

Beating the Waiver Wire - Speculative Stashes for Week 16

It's Wednesday morning. You dropped a player last night expecting to make some moves on the waiver wire, only to wake up and find out you weren't able to get anyone you put a claim in for. What now? If you've got an open roster spot, its always a good idea to plan ahead for […]

Week 15 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs Industry Consensus

Lose one elite QB, gain another back. There was a seismic shift in the fantasy values of several players in Philadelphia and Green Bay this week with the unfortunate injury by Carson Wentz and the joyful return of Aaron Rodgers. The rankings will reflect as much, but also must take into consideration what position each […]

10 Lineup Busts and Avoids for Week 15

The playoffs are in full swing now. How's it going? I'm heading into a bitter, two week showdown in one of my leagues against the guy who lets me watch RedZone on his new television every Sunday and I'm actually excited about it. As I close in on the end of my first year at Rotoballer, […]

Week 15 Consistency Report - Floors and Ceilings

Survive and advance. That is the name of the game for this week as many fantasy football leagues are in their semifinal match-ups. It's exciting if you are still in the dance, but also very stressful for some of you with tough start/sit decisions. The fear of starting the wrong guy can haunt you all […]

Fantasy Football Pop Quiz - Week 15 Lineup Questions

Unlike last week, I think it's safe to declare that it's officially playoff time for everyone. I mean, everyone who made it (and shout-out to the people who are trying to keep the consolation bracket competitive, you're the real MVP.) If you're competing for that top spot, and maybe some slightly belated Christmas funding, you […]

NFL Survivor League Picks (Week 15): Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids

Coming into Sunday, this was one of the best cards we’ve had yet. It lived up to its potential. And then some. We saw a snow game, two overtime games, an incredible Sunday night football game, but it’s all overshadowed by Carson Wentz’s injury. It's so unfortunate to see the potential MVP go down in a […]

Futures Market - Dynasty League Wide Receivers

Last week, we looked at running backs in dynasty leagues. This time around, we try and decipher the wide receiver position. Unlike those in the backfield, those on the outside can rise and fade quickly like the tides. Two years ago, Randall Cobb had a third-round ADP and was a keeper for many fantasy owners. This […]
