Trevor Lawrence A Low-End QB2 Against Denver
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence projects as a low-end QB2 play in Week 2 at home against the Denver Broncos. Lawrence is best left on most benches in one quarterback formats after the rookie and the rest of his teammates struggled to get much going against a poor Texans defense in Week 1. Lawrence's talent […]
Early-Season Dynasty Trade Targets
After one week of NFL action, the fantasy overreaction is already at a critical mass. Seasoned dynasty league managers have learned to take a patient, long-term approach to roster construction. Others are in the business of making knee-jerk reactions and filling their trade block with underperforming players from the results of a single game. We […]

The results of Week 1 provided a collection of impressive performances, including several surprising developments. It also delivered our first opportunity to examine the massive assortment of numbers that […]
Week 2 Busts? Players Who May Disappoint
After Week 1 of the NFL season, fantasy managers might be panicking on some top players like Ezekiel Elliott, but it is important to realize that it is a long season. It would be nice to start the fantasy season on a tear, but it isn't the end of the world if players come out of […]
Week 2 IDP Fantasy Football Rankings
Everything went according to plan in Week 1, right? No injuries to key pass rushers, no mysterious benching of a young WR without warning, and no goose eggs laid by defending MVPs? No late-night trips to a certain fast-food chain that tied you to your toilet and rendered you physically unable to claim Elijah Mitchell […]
Jaguars Release Duke Johnson
The Jacksonville Jaguars released running back Duke Johnson from their practice squad on Thursday. That didn't take long. The Jaguars added Johnson to their practice squad just last week. Even if he latches on with another organization relatively soon, he's unlikely to become a fantasy relevant name anytime soon. The Jaguars will move forward with […]
What We Know About the Jaguars' Offense in 2021
What a Week 1 we had! I know what you're feeling. The urge is building up inside of you to make a move, cut a struggling player, jump on the next big thing, or trade with a concerned manager. However, I urge you not to be rash. We spend months doing research into these players […]

It felt good to enjoy a full Sunday of NFL action and follow every player on multiple fantasy teams. But now the work begins.

Dawson Knox (TE, BUF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Knox lucked out that Buffalo did not trade for Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz or any other tight end during the offseason, so he remains Josh Allen’s No. 1 TE. The Bills added Allen’s former college teammate Jacob Hollister to the tight end fold during the offseason, but he was […]
James O'Shaughnessy (TE, JAX) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Being Jacksonville’s top tight end has been akin to being the person who makes the salads at McDonald’s --- it is not viewed as an important position. Tyler Eifert did not fix the problem last season for the Jaguars, and Tim Tebow was hardly the answer during […]
Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 2
It only took one week of NFL action to have fantasy football managers antsy about their tight ends. Not every tight end caught two touchdown tosses like Rob Gronkowski. While many superstars at the position started the season well --- T.J. Hockenson and Travis Kelce to name two --- some others remained injured (Evan Engram, […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 2 Lightning Round
Welcome, one and all, to the 2021 fantasy football season. Week 1's action is still firing but we have plenty of games on the books to chew on as we look forward to Week 2. Trey Sermon and Zack Moss were surprise inactives, while a few key injuries and impressive performances yielded other players of […]
Mark Ingram II (RB, HOU) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Houston Texans are fresh off of a resounding Week One win over Urban Meyer, Trevor Lawrence, and the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars at the hands of veteran dual-threat QB Tyrod Taylor and a rag-tag set of skill players: David Johnson, Phillip Lindsay, Rex […]

Chris Manhertz Catches Touchdown In Week 1 Loss
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Chris Manhertz caught his only pass for a 22-yard touchdown in the team's 37-21 Week 1 defeat against the Houston Texans. Manhertz will forever live on Trevor Lawrence's highlight reel as the recipient of the rookie's first career touchdown pass, but he was a non-factor for most of the game. As […]
James O'Shaughnessy Totals 48 Yards In Week 1 Loss
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end James O'Shaughnessy caught six passes for 48 yards in the team's 37-21 Week 1 loss to the Houston Texans. O'Shaughnessy also had eight targets in the game, and he was surprisingly involved throughout. While O'Shaughnessy's performance was encouraging, Jacob Hollister is likely to suit up next week, meaning that O'Shaughnessy is […]
Laviska Shenault Jr. Leads Jaguars In Receptions
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. led the team with seven receptions in Sunday's season-opening 37-21 loss to the Houston Texans while also adding 50 yards through the air and nine yards on the ground. All things considered, it was an encouraging performance from the second-year wideout, as he was targeted nine times and […]
Carlos Hyde Leads The Backfield In Week 1
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Carlos Hyde led the team in touches on Sunday, racking up 11 touches and 58 total yards in the team's 37-21 Week 1 defeat against the Houston Texans. The extent of Hyde's involvement was surprising, and it appears that he's in a fairly even timeshare with James Robinson. Hyde caught two […]
Marvin Jones Jr. Finds The End Zone In Week 1
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. caught five passes for 77 yards and a touchdown against the Texans in a 37-21 Week 1 defeat. Jones was a favorite target for Trevor Lawrence in this one as he was targeted nine times in total, trailing only D.J. Chark Jr. (12) in that category. The rapport […]
James Robinson Disappoints In Week 1
Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson shockingly only managed 54 total yards on eight touches in Week 1 while playing behind fellow running back Carlos Hyde, who had 11 touches in the game. Head coach Urban Meyer's decision to feature Hyde ahead of Robinson makes little sense, but training camp reports indicated that Hyde would be […]
D.J. Chark Jr. Racks Up 86 Yards And A Touchdown In Opener
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. caught three passes for 86 yards and a touchdown in the team's 37-21 Week 1 defeat against the Houston Texans. The bulk of Chark's production came on a beautiful 41-yard touchdown reception towards the end of the third quarter. Outside of that play, Chark only caught two other […]
Trevor Lawrence Up And Down In Regular Season Debut
Jacksonville Jaguars rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence went 28-for-51 with 332 yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions in a 37-21 Week 1 loss to the Houston Texans. Lawrence and the entire team's performance against a very poor Texans team was largely disappointing. Lawrence put up some decent numbers, but most of his production came after the […]
Jaguars Make Jacob Hollister Inactive For Week 1
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Jacob Hollister is the team's only inactive skill position player ahead of Sunday's Week 1 meeting with the Houston Texans. Not a lot of surprises here, as Hollister was expected to be the No. 3 tight end on the team. This seems to imply that rookie tight end Luke Farrell is […]
