Thursday Night Football Starts & Sits: Panthers vs Texans

With Week 2 in the books, we are officially flying through the season. I hope all of your fantasy teams have found success and are set up for a great season. Last week started pretty slow with six of the eight-morning games hitting the under. However, the afternoon and primetime games made up for that […]

FAB Bidding - Week 3 Waiver Wire Targets

Joining our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, this column focuses on suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Budget (FAB). Week 2 usually serves up humble pie to those who saw Week 1 and went, "Oh, now I get it...I'll […]

Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Week 2 was ugly in the early slate with low-scoring games and QB injuries across the board. Things picked up through the afternoon but the typical surprises that make fantasy football so aggravating at times resurfaced. Touchdown vultures, mid-game injuries, and big-name duds (looking at you, Alvin Kamara) were all present. Nevertheless, we move on to […]

The Cut List - Time To Let Go? Week 3

As a hardcore NFL fan and one who loves to play couch-General Manager a little more than I probably should, the one thing I've learned is that mistakes are okay. They're going to happen. Drafting in the NFL Draft or fantasy football for that matter is incredibly difficult. Don't believe me? Go back and look […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 3

After two weeks of the regular season, some of the running backs that were drafted in the early and middle rounds have performed effectively for anyone who selected them. Hopefully, you are among the fantasy managers that have received favorable results from these players. Unfortunately, other runners have not produced the results that were expected. Some […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 3

It only took two weeks of NFL action for fantasy football managers to desperately need tight ends. There are no teams on bye to cause concern for fantasy footballers, but there are certainly plenty of problems to cause ulcers to flare up. Baltimore’s Mark Andrews and San Francisco’s George Kittle have not scored a touchdown […]

Surprise Fantasy Football Studs, Duds - Something or Nothing?

Week 2 of the NFL season is now in the books and while we saw many familiar names register top-fantasy performances there were a few surprises. The quarterback position was fairly predictable for the most part with Kyler Murray, Tom Brady, Lamar Jackson, Daniel Jones and Aaron Rodgers all registering top-five performances. Derek Carr, Daniel […]

Rams Optimistic Darrell Henderson Jr. Will Be Ready This Week

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Darrell Henderson Jr. (rib) is dealing with a rib-cartilage injury, but the Rams are optimistic that he will be ready for Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Don't expect Henderson to practice much, but it sounds as though he avoided a major injury […]

Sony Michel Runs Well In Relief In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams running back Sony Michel saw his first serious action since joining the team in their Week 2 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Teammate Darrell Henderson Jr. (chest) left the game and went to the locker room with an injury in the second half, and that gave Michel a large uptick in workload. […]

Rams Defense Gets Some Takeaways In Week 2

The Los Angeles Rams defense gave up a few more points in Week 2 to the Indianapolis Colts, but they still put together a strong performance in the team's win. The defense ended up allowing 24 points in the game, but they forced some mistakes out of the offense, with two interceptions on the day […]

Matt Gay Remains Perfect In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay had a busy day in Week 2, and he was flawless in the team's win over the Indianapolis Colts. Gay went 2-for-2 on his field-goal attempts and he also nailed all three of his extra-point tries. Gay is in a perfect situation with this productive offense, and he'll remain […]

Tyler Higbee Shut Down In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee played well in Week 1, but he was nearly shut out in the team's Week 2 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Higbee saw just one target in the game, which he caught for nine yards. He was still the only tight end to see a target on the […]

Robert Woods Shows Some Life In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods wasn't able to find the end zone in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts, but he still put up a solid performance on the day. He caught five of his nine targets for 64 yards. All three numbers were second-most on the team behind only teammate Cooper Kupp. […]

Cooper Kupp Explodes In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp was great in Week 1, and you could argue he was even better in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts. Kupp caught nine of his 11 targets for 163 yards and two touchdowns. Kupp remained the leading man in this Rams offense, and he registered his second week […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Finds The End Zone In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. was splitting the touches a bit more in Week 2, but he was still the leading man on the day against the Indianapolis Colts. Henderson finished the day with 13 carries for 53 yards and a score to go with three receptions on five targets for 29 […]

Matthew Stafford Plays Well In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford wasn't flawless in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts, but he still put together a solid game in the team's win. He finished the game 19 of 30 passing for 278 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. Stafford was kept relatively clean, and he was only sacked once […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Goes To Locker Room

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. has gone to the locker room with what appears to be an upper-body injury. Considering it's the fourth quarter of this game, it wouldn't be a shock to see Henderson ruled out, even if the injury doesn't wind up being serious. Henderson has 13 carries for 53 […]

Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 2

Week 1 of the NFL season is in the books and true to form, the league's top cornerbacks held their receivers in check for the most part.

High-Upside Bench Stashes: Week 2

Fantasy football often requires thinking ahead of the competition. This article introduces high-upside bench stashes to target on league waiver wires ahead of Week 2, as most leagues use either a free-agent auction-based (FAAB) waiver system or a standard worst-to-first order for top waiver priority. Either way, taking advantage of players ahead of plus-matchups in […]
