Week 12 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus
This isn't just one of the best weeks of the year for NFL fans, it's also a great time for college football.

Beating the Waiver Wire - Speculative Adds for Week 13
It's Wednesday morning. You dropped a player last night expecting to make some moves on the waiver wire, only to wake up and find out you weren't able to get anyone you put a claim in for. What now? If you've got an open roster spot, its always a good idea to plan ahead for […]
10 Lineup Busts and Avoids for Week 12
Another year of Thanksgiving games has come and gone, and I want to go on a quick rant that is only tangentially related to fantasy football, and isn't at all related to the actual premise of this column: the Dish Network and CBS dispute. I was invited to a friend's family Thanksgiving and went with […]
Studs Turned Duds - Disaster Recovery from Week 11
Welcome to Disaster Recovery, where each week I'll examine why your studs played like duds. This isn't a place to find out why you should have benched a player for somebody on your bench.

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 11 Fantasy Football Picks
We were due for Week 10 to happen and not just in the most obvious, literal sense that Week 10 would inevitably arrive after Week 9. Sometimes up is down, black is white, and dogs and cats live and dine together in harmony. In a week where DeMarco Murray and Kirk Cousins combined for five […]
Week 11 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus
In a week where so many picks went so wrong, it's good to know that many others were just as wrong. Sleepers Eli Manning, Bilal Powell, and Corey Davis were all big whiffs, while purported busts C.J. Beathard, Jonathan Stewart, and Emmanuel Sanders had their best games of the season. I was almost shocked that […]

Fantasy Pop Quiz - Lineup Questions for Week 11
It's nice to remind myself when I'm wrong (there's a good "haha he's married now" joke in there, but that's low hanging fruit that's even too low for me) especially as I weep over the less-than-smoldering ashes of my fantasy teams. In the pre-season, I went back through years of fantasy scoring, estimating how different […]
#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers Week 11
Fantasy owners will make this mistake year after year with players. When it comes time for your draft or auction, you need to stop paying for names. Far too often a fantasy owner will pay for the name on the back of a jersey instead of the stats on the scoresheet. The problem with some […]
10 Lineup Busts and Avoids for Week 11
I planned on writing up a long introduction about this current fantasy football season, but I had computer issues the entire time I was working on this week's column, so something had to suffer due to time constraints. I don't think it would be a good idea to let the actual bust picks suffer, so […]
Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 11
Time is running out on fantasy football owners looking to make that big blockbuster deal that turns their .500 team into a playoff contender or their second-place squad into a division champ.

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers: Week 11
There were some dramatic shifts in fantasy value in Week 10 after surprising breakout performances, especially at the quarterback position. 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 […]
Do Not Cut Strategy for Playoffs - Endgame Special
Entering our last week of byes, and with the fantasy regular season dying down, we have a much better handle on player values than we did in the first couple of months of the NFL calendar. Before Mother Nature interfered, the plan was to have one more significant round of byes in Week 11, with […]
Running Backs Waiver Wire - Week 11 Pickups and Adds
If you're a believer in the All-RB bench strategy, you may consider acquiring multiple players on this list. We have no idea how much value players like Jamaal Williams or Rex Burkhead will have in another week or two, but the off-chance that they play significant roles on their respective teams during the fantasy playoffs […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 11 Lightning Round
In trying to bring you RotoBallers the most timely information, consider this the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 11. Ezekiel Elliott has left the country and we can finally put that situation to bed, sort of. Stay tuned to the Green Bay scenario with Aaron Jones (knee) and Ty Montgomery (ribs) both ailing. […]
Fantasy Football Consistency Report for Week 10: Floors and Ceilings
The NFL season is flying by.

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 […]

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. That can be good if you make some good choices, but it can also come back to bite you if you make some bad ones. Here at Rotoballer, we want to give you […]
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 […]
Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 10
Fantasy football owners are running out of time if they want to retool their rosters. The NFL’s trading deadline passed last week, which means the trade deadline in many fantasy football leagues is coming up quicker than safeties crowding the box against L.A. Rams runner Todd Gurley.

Hopefully you've sought refuge in the […]

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 […]
