Trevor Siemian (QB, DEN) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: All credit for Trevor Siemian’s continued improvement lies with the Denver Broncos for their belief and patience with him. The 25-year-old surprised everyone by winning the starting job last year, but once again managed to emerge as the starter this season. After an average […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 2 Fantasy Football Picks
Let's face it - as much as you try to build a strong team at all positions, you're winning each week based on the strength of one or two players that put up huge performances. The vast majority of champions from 2016 weren't won by guys with the best balance in their lineup or the […]
Top 10 Fantasy Football Lineup Busts: Week 2
Last week in this column I made this little joke: "if I tell you to bench David Johnson, you have my permission to send me mean Tweets about it." Well--ugh. As a Johnson owner in my home league and someone who went light on drafting RBs after picking Johnson and Jordan Howard early, things look bleak. […]
Double Trouble - Week 2 DFS Tournament Stacks
That felt great, didn't it? Perhaps last Sunday's slate of NFL games wasn't the greatest every played, but it still allowed us to sit around and watch football all day.

NFL Rookies To Watch In Week 2
Each week, we will look at rookies who have either performed well the previous few weeks or who have a favorable matchup in the upcoming week. These may be high-profile names or under-the-radar depth players; the only thing that matters is that they are first-year pros ready to make a name for themselves. Hopefully, by […]
Buy Low, Sell High Candidates For Week 2
It is time for fantasy football owners to channel their inner Gordon Gecko by buying low and selling high! The opening week of the NFL season was filled with breakout performances by rookie running backs (Dalvin Cook, Kareem Hunt, Leonard Fourcette) and sluggish starts for veteran quarterbacks (Tom Brady, Eli Manning, Andy Dalton). Now is […]
Fantasy Football Risers & Fallers - Week 1
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. […]
#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers
There’s nothing like a great start to the fantasy football season. In one of my leagues, we always play the game “you know football is back when” and I want to kick this article off with a good one. You know football is back when you have to plug your phone in multiple times on […]

Week 2 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus
Don't overreact. Don't overreact. Fantasy owners need to repeat this many times before making lineup decisions after one week of regular season football. The same goes for ranking the players and trying to judge relative value. This week, I'll resist temptation to put Kareem Hunt as overall RB1, steer clear of Carson Palmer, and try […]
Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Well, that didn't take long. Injuries to star running back David Johnson and fantasy sleeper Danny Woodhead have left openings for their understudies to make an impact in the coming weeks.

Thursday Night Football Matchup Analysis (Week 2)
*Deep breath... exhale.* What a crazy week of football!

Week 1 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus
If you've spent the last 24 hours crying your eyes out because you passed on Kareem Hunt, benched Mike Gillislee, or paid up for Gronk, you're not alone my friend.
