Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 6

In Week 5, Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller was the best wide receiver play of the week.

Week 6 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

Weeks 4 and 5 saw a combined four teams go on bye. Week 6, however, will be the first week of the season with four teams off in the same week. That will also be the case in Weeks 7, 9, 11 and 12. Meanwhile, in Week 10 there will be six different teams taking […]

Week 6 Stream Team - Free Agent and Bye-Week Streamers

Now that bye weeks are in full swing; streaming becomes a more viable and almost necessary strategy. Knowing who to add and when to start them could be the ultimate difference-maker in a weekly matchup. Making the right streaming decisions throughout the season could easily be the difference in winning a championship. Each week, I […]

Woos and Boos - Starts and Sits for Week 6 Lineups

Week 5 in the NFL saw a return to normalcy from a fantasy perspective. Although we saw big performances from Will Fuller, D.J. Chark, and Aaron Jones, the top of the leaderboards was largely filled by some of the more common names from around the league. Could this be a turn of the corner as […]

Week 6 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

If this season has proved anything, it's that DSTs can not be dismissed. This past week the Eagles threw up 35+ points in most formats, and you can bet that was the difference in plenty of matchups. The Patriots have proven that the right defense with the right schedule can be as valuable as a […]

Fantasy Football Mailbag - Week 6

This article's content may vary week-to-week, but generally, it will be answering questions fielded from either the @RotoBallerNFL twitter account or my personal one (@RotoSurgeon). This week, the focus is on start/sit questions, and there were plenty. Every week, many of us struggle with which quarterback to start, or who to flex, and I am […]

Week 6 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis

This game is a matchup of the two top teams in the NFC North, by the standings at least. The key to this game will, of course be the offenses. Both the Lions and Packers come into this game boasting offenses which rank in the top half of the NFL and this game should be […]

Todd Gurley Officially Out

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley (quadriceps) will not play against San Francisco. Gurley suffered a thigh contusion during the Week 5 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, and while there was hope that the veteran would play, he will now watch from the sidelines in Week 6. Look for Malcolm Brown to pick up […]

Cooper Kupp Remains A WR1 Ahead Of Week 6

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp continues to be full-fledged WR1 across all fantasy formats. With one of the most consistent target shares in the league and a quarterback that appears willing to throw 50 times (or more) in a game, Kupp’s extraordinary start is legit. The third-year receiver continues to lead the team […]

Robert Woods Remains Incredibly Inconsistent

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods returned back to Earth in Week 5 with five receptions on nine targets for just 48 yards. This followed a superhuman Week 4 performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers where Woods had led the team in yardage, receptions, and targets. While the veteran’s inconsistency is concerning, his upside, […]

Jared Goff Will Continue To Air The Ball Out

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has remained aggressive in the air, throwing the ball 49 times for 295 yards in the team’s 30-29 defeat to the Seattle Seahawks. Incredibly, Goff’s performance came on a short week; the fourth-year QB had just thrown 68 passes, the third-most in league history, in a Week 4 loss […]

Week 6 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 5 is in the books, and the offenses are continuing to roll. When offenses are scoring, kickers are getting opportunities to put points on the board. In Week 6, more teams are on bye weeks, and that means we have to get a little more creative with who we're playing. Week 6 has several […]

NFL DFS Prop Picks for 10/13/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

We head into Week Six of the National Football League season and the results so far are starting to set some dividing lines between good and bad. But that process is still early. The Patriots and 49ers are unbeaten and there are four more teams with one loss, but there are 16 teams – half […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 6) - Targets and Avoids

The two double-digit favorites, Patriots and Eagles, did their part Sunday cruising to wins. However the Bears “great and vaunted” defense allows yet another game-winning drive, the Broncos Defense stifles the Chargers, and the Chiefs lose outright to the Colts at home knocking tons of entrants out in survivor. I rightly gave out the Patriots […]

Last Chance to Sell High on These Players

With five weeks already in the books and the sixth underway, we're entering the point of no return... in the trade market of your fantasy league, that is. Yes, there are almost two-thirds of the schedule yet to be played out. But most players have already made an impression and showed what they're up to […]

Inside the Tent - Week 6 NFL Injury Insight

At RotoBaller, we can't stress enough the importance of keeping up with injuries and playing your best lineup week after week. Players are going to get injured, that's an unavoidable fact. What's avoidable though is making the wrong roster decisions based on the injuries surrounding your fantasy squad. If you want to dominate your leagues […]

Stash Running Backs the Right Way

For those who don't know, I am the #AllBenchRB guy and I will reiterate what that means if you didn't peep my primer last year. I believe that your bench should be filled with RBs. RBs are the most injury prone and RB depth charts the most variable providing you with the greatest opportunity to […]

Rams Defense An Iffy Play

The Los Angeles Rams Defense has a midrange matchup against the San Francisco 49ers this week. The Niners have allowed just four sacks, but they've thrown four picks and lost four fumbles in as many games. The Rams defense has underperformed this season, but if your waiver wire doesn't have a great one-week play, the […]

Tyler Higbee A Combustible Option This Week

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee is facing a difficult matchup against the San Francisco 49ers this week, and he has been pretty quiet since returning from a bruised lung. In the meantime, tight end Gerald Everett has averaged the sixth-most fantasy points per game at the position over the last three weeks. Both […]

Gerald Everett Worth The Start

Los Angeles Rams tight end Gerald Everett is worth lineup consideration this week despite a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The Niners have allowed 14 catches for 87 yards and a score to tight ends in four games this season. However, the Rams are likely to be without running back Todd Gurley (quadriceps), […]

Darrell Henderson Could See Extended Look

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson could see his most extensive action of the season with running back Todd Gurley (quadriceps) doubtful to play in Week 6. Running back Malcolm Brown should be first in line for touches, but the Rams like to use multiple backs. Henderson has the size of a change-of-pace back, […]

Malcolm Brown Figures To See More Work

Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown is expected to see a larger workload in Week 6 with running back Todd Gurley (quadriceps) doubtful to play. Brown has done very little since his banner Week 1 with two scores. He'll have a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, which have been the best team […]

Aqib Talib Out For Rams Defense

Los Angeles Rams cornerback Aqib Talib (ribs) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the 49ers, according to head coach Sean McVay. Already a weak streaming option against the Niners offense this Sunday, the Rams Defense and secondary takes a big hit without their veteran cornerback on the field. It's also excellent news for […]

Todd Gurley Doubtful For Week 6

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley (quadriceps) is listed as doubtful for Week 6 against the San Francisco 49ers. There is still a chance he suits up as a game-time decision, but it looks pretty bleak for him. In his expected stead, running back Malcolm Brown figures to see the bulk of the action. […]

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 6

This is Christian McCaffrey's fantasy world and we're all just living in it. At this point, it's just that simple, as it doesn't seem to matter who he's playing with or against. Run CMC is running and catching whatever and whenever he wants. If you played against him in Week 5 (*cough-cough*), you probably got […]
