Late-Season Surgers To Target In Dynasty Leagues

Whether you are still playing for this year or playing for next year's championship, the "late-season surger" injects all kinds of life into your dynasty team. If nothing else, it often gives you another trading chip or two to play with, bolstering your off-season leverage. Of course, there are some rookies who are surging late […]

Matt Gay Is A Solid Option For Week 15

Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay left the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the offseason, and he's found a nice home with the Rams this year. He's made all of his extra-point attempts since joining the team four weeks ago and he's 6-for-8 on his field-goal attempts. The Rams will have no problem scoring points against […]

Rams Defense Is An Elite Option In Week 15

The Los Angeles Rams Defense has been one of the best units in football all season and they are one of the best fantasy football options for Week 15 against the New York Jets. The Jets have the worst offense in football, according to DVOA, while the Rams feature the league's third-best defense using the […]

Robert Woods Has WR1 Upside Against Jets

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods has been a rock-solid play all season as a WR2 with upside, and he'll have an excellent matchup in Week 15 against the winless Jets. The Rams are projected to win this game by nearly 18 points. There's the danger of LA building up a huge lead and […]

Cooper Kupp Is A Safe Play In Week 15

Similar to his quarterback, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp is a safe play in Week 15 against the New York Jets, but he doesn't give you an overwhelming ceiling in this matchup. If you have a lineup that features a few high-volatility fantasy players, Kupp is the perfect player to cement into a […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Could See More Work Against Jets

It's rare that you can feel comfortable starting multiple running backs from the same team, but that could be the case for Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. in Week 15 against the New York Jets. There is a strong case to be made that the Rams are going to have a commanding […]

Cam Akers Is A Solid Start In Week 15

Los Angeles Rams rookie running back Cam Akers has finally arrived, and he has the chance to repeat his strong performance from Week 14 in Week 15 against the New York Jets. The Jets have a decent run defense, which is about the only thing this team does well, but Akers and the Rams have […]

Jared Goff Lacks A High Ceiling In Week 15

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has arguably the best matchup in the NFL in Week 15 against the New York Jets, but that doesn't guarantee it will translate to a great fantasy outing. In Week 14, the Jets mustered just three points against the Seattle Seahawks, and the Rams have a significantly better defense. […]

No Practice For Robert Woods

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods (thigh) was a non-participant at practice on Wednesday. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on Woods' practice status the rest of the week, as he'll be a must-start wideout with obvious WR1 upside this weekend against the winless Jets and their woeful defense if he's […]

The Cut List (Week 15) - Time to Let Go?

I don't know if there is a more frustrating aspect of fantasy football than the double-bladed sword we refer to as "patience."

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 14

The Week 13 wide receiver matchup article was not the greatest as none of the recommended receivers even cracked the top-25. Cooper Kupp finished as WR-29 with eight catches for 73 yards and Allen Robinson had six catches for 75 yards but the Bears controlled the game for the most part so they ran the ball a ton. Brandin Cooks missed […]
