Week 10 Dynasty Matchup Previews

Dynasty owners don’t play week to week, they play long term. However, dynasty owners still need to analyze different aspects of weekly matchups to determine the best time to sell or buy a player. Make sure you don’t buy that hot rookie too soon and don’t sell the aging veteran too late. Each week, I […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 10

Oh, how time has flown by quicker than a Matthew Stafford pass. It feels like just last week that Kareem Hunt and Tyreek Hill were ravaging the New England Patriots defense, Adrian Peterson was on the New Orleans Saints and Aaron Rodgers was healthy. A lot has changed over the past two-plus months, but one […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 10 Fantasy Football Picks

I just couldn't resist the urge, so you'll have to bear with me for a few more sentences while I gloat a bit. Sometimes it feels like we are wrong more than we are right in the world of fantasy football, yet we keep coming back or more like the addicts we are. Nothing feeds […]

Defying Logic - Scrubs Over Stars for Week 10

Not only have we heard this argument on podcasts, websites and among fellow fantasy football players, but we go through it in our heads every single week. Hopefully by this point in the season, you have established a bench with some worthy starters and are afforded the privilege of even considering such a blasphemous concept as […]

We're getting closer to the end of the season--we've reached the double-digit weeks now!--which means that the decisions you make become amplified.

Week 10 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

It finally happened. I think. Ezekiel Elliott will finally come out of double-secret probation and miss an actual game. Does that mean I'm all in on Alfred Morris? Hardly. Dak Prescott on the other hand... and you may be surprised at which receiver benefits most. As an expert ranker for RotoBaller and FantasyPros, I'll put my […]

Is Drew Brees an Immediate Sell in Dynasty Leagues?

There comes a point in every player’s career where their production hits a cliff and they are no longer the same player. This can happen for a variety of reasons like age, injuries, teammates, etc. As dynasty players, we try to stay ahead of the curve by selling high on such players before they reach […]

Week 10 Do Not Drop List - Hoping For Playoff Upside

Hey all, Tom Bellucco here. I'm stepping in for Chris Moore this week as he welcomes a new baby to the world. Congrats to Chris! I hope I can at least provide decent advice out of the bullpen. This week I figured it would be helpful to start looking ahead. As Chris mentioned last week, […]

Wide Receivers Waiver Wire - Week 10 Pickups and Adds

Four weeks until the fantasy playoffs and at this point you are likely in one of three camps: Camp 1 - are teams that are basically a lock for their league's playoffs. Teams that are 9-0, 8-1, 7-2 and possibly 6-3 (if you have a very strong roster) are pretty much in. If this is you, […]

Fantasy Football Consistency Report for Week 9: Floors and Ceilings

Sometimes writing an introduction is hard. I would say it is even harder to write an introduction to a weekly article where the topic of the article remains the same every week. So, as I’m sitting here typing this in the Penn State library, I decided to write an introduction about me writing an introduction; […]

Week 9 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

You might think with six teams on bye and less players overall to consider, establishing a solid set of rankings might be a bit easier. In fact, for fantasy purposes it makes it far tougher to establish the lower value tiers because you have to wade through RB committees and WR4/WR5 types just to assess […]

Picking Up The Pieces After Deshaun Watson's Injury

Yesterday's season-ending injury left a lot of us in a severe state of fantasy football related depression, to the extent that that's a legitimate phenomenon (it is). Deshaun Watson was perhaps objectively the most exciting player in the NFL in 2017 and was found-money for a lot of our fantasy teams. If you owned him, […]

Press Rewind - A Mock Football Re-Draft at Midseason

One of my favorite things to do at the end of the fantasy season is to look back at all the things I said in August and September. I write a little draft recap for a couple of my leagues and do weekly power rankings. It's fun to see the differences between what I thought then, […]

Target Risers and Potential Breakouts Week 10

After an absolute whirlwind of a news cycle heading into Week 9, it was good to get some football tape to evaluate. We didn’t get a look at Kelvin Benjamin in his new home in Buffalo just yet, but we did get a glimpse of what the Panthers would look like without him. We also […]

Waiver Wire Rankings for Week 9

Wow, what a trade deadline. What started off as a relatively slow week on the waiver wire, is turning into a rather explosive one. Let's not forget, there are also a lot of teams with viable fantasy players on bye. The need for streaming players, or adding depth to your team, may be higher than […]

Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

There was less football on the whole this weekend, as six teams took a break. We had another ugly London game, a surprise shootout in Seattle and a couple of nail-biters.

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 9)

Deeper Sleepers for Standard Leagues (Week 9)

As I write this, it is Monday evening and I am trying not to fall asleep after only getting about five hours of sleep last night--and after being awake all of yesterday. I don't miss NFL football unless I have to, so I woke up for the Browns/Vikings London game and watched the first half […]

Rather than reciting some of my greatest hits and misses from last week (let's just assume they were all hits and move on), I have a commentary on the fantasy football community as a whole.
