Week 7 Quarterback Pickups and Streamers: Standard and Two-QB Leagues
Hey there RotoBallers! With Week 6 almost in the books, it's already time to turn an eye toward the waiver wire in Week 7. As always, this column will aim to highlight Week 7 waiver wire adds and streamers for quarterbacks, players that you should consider targeting on your league's waiver wire. In the past few seasons, streaming the […]
Week 7 Do Not Drop List - Don't Panic On The Pack
This list is ordinarily exclusively about the players who are popular drop considerations from week-to-week who nevertheless have enough value to hold if you have the roster flexibility. I’m going to break format ever so slightly this week to discuss a group of players who I want to caution against selling low, and that group […]
The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 7)
Plainly and simply, this will be your weekly list of those end-of-roster guys that you can safely let go of, with the occasional unfortunate star player that finds his way here due to injury. Each week from now until the end of the season, I’ll be offering my thoughts on players who don’t deserve to […]
Waiver Wire Rankings for Week 7
This is our priority list for running backs, wide receivers, tight ends and quarterbacks to add. Darren McFadden (48%) and Alfred Morris (54%) are sitting atop the list, just in case they are still available in your leagues. Go get 'em asap. We always receive a lot of questions of which players to add off the waiver […]
Deeper Sleepers for Standard Leagues (Week 7)
Last week I mentioned Brian Hoyer as a good streaming option, which quickly looked like a bad call when Hoyer was benched for C.J. Beathard. But hey--the 49ers offense looks surprisingly not terrible, so maybe I just had the wrong quarterback penciled in! But seriously, I don't know what to think about San Francisco--every week […]
Deeper PPR Sleepers Heading Into Week 7
Although it doesn't quite factor into a column about PPR sleepers, we should take a moment to acknowledge the injury to Aaron Rodgers. A broken collarbone is likely to end his season. For the record, that's way more disappointing for real life NFL football than it is for fantasy. Seeing a superstar go down with […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 6 Fantasy Football Picks
I'll start by repeating something profound I said in my podcast yesterday: Deshaun Watson is good. I'd put him at the top of this column once again, but it's too obvious in a matchup with Cleveland and you should be starting him anyway. Now that we got that out of the way, I'll continue by […]
Fantasy Football Consistency Report for Week 6 Lineups
The idea of consistency has become a huge part of fantasy football, and rightfully so. You want players who are going to perform on a weekly basis and will not kill your team with constant duds. In today’s game, consistency has become a measurement of a player’s weekly finish at his position relative to other […]
10 Lineup Busts and Avoids for Week 6
It's Week 6. The Kansas City Chiefs are undefeated, the Patriots have looked average at many points, and the Houston Texans are suddenly an offensive oriented team. The NFL, y'all, where things change so fast. Case in point: Amari Cooper would have been cut already if his name wasn't Amari Cooper in all your fantasy […]
Fantasy Football Hacks - Sneaky Loopholes to Give You an Advantage
Where there are rules, there are loopholes. There are ways to implement sneaky strategies that could either be viewed as genius or sketchy. The two questions are: 1) How far are you willing to go to get an advantage in your league? 2) How long can you keep it going until others pick up on […]
Week 6 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus
There was plenty of parity last week, but I have a feeling we're going to see some blowouts on Sunday. It feels a little funny putting a Jets tight end, a Texans quarterback, and a Broncos running back in my top five, but fantasy football is a funny game after all. As an expert ranker […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
Just when it seemed like the injury wasteland couldn’t get much worse after last week, it did. We saw the entire Giants’ WR corps decimated, with Odell Beckham Jr.’s fractured ankle highlighting this week’s mayhem. Others among the wounded are Charles Clay, DeVante Parker, Bilal Powell, Orleans Darkwa (who we’ll get to in a moment), […]
Running Backs Waiver Wire - Week 6 Pickups and Adds
Thankfully, the injury bug didn't bite running backs as hard this week. Many of these names may now look familiar, but it's still important to gauge which players have rising values and which are merely roster depth or desperation plays. If you want absolute clarity on the backfield situation in New York or New England, […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 5 Fantasy Football Picks
Sometimes you just get that feeling... this week is going to be special.

NFL Survivor League Picks (Week 5): Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids
I had a different intro written before last night's game, but I hadn't seen an ending like that in some time. This is not a gambling column, but this can not be passed up. No, not the field goal, but the final play. The Chiefs were favorite by 6.5 and the over under was 49. […]
