Waiver Wire Express - Week 6 Lightning Round

Week 5 brought some key injuries and we lost the NE/DEN game (with BUF/TEN still up in the air). The biggest injury was Dak Prescott, who was carted off after suffering a compound ankle fracture, but we also saw Sammy Watkins and A.J. Green leave due to hamstring injuries alongside Diontae Johnson's back injury. Also, Dalvin […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6

Fantasy GMs are to be commended for rising to the unique challenges that have unfolded during this regular season. Injuries to critical players is an unwelcome reality that occurs every year. This is also the case for backs that were expected to operate as RB1s, but have been relegated to committees. However, this season has […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6

Can you believe we're already on our way to Week 6 of the NFL? The season is flying along, even with a lot of bumps along the way. This week saw some wild performances from some unexpected places, including Steelers rookie Chase Claypool going all the way off. It's a great time to get Claypool […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 6

Once again, the NFL was a perfect example of why people love and hate the game of football. On one hand, we saw the best feelgood story in several years with Alex Smith returning to play (and looking relatively good all things considered) for the Washington Football Team. Then, just hours later the brutal cruelty […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 6

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 downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]

Davon Godchaux Facing Three-Month Recovery

Miami Dolphins starting defensive tackle Davon Godchaux (biceps) is facing a three-month recovery after suffering a biceps tear in the Week 5 win over the 49ers, according to a source. The Dolphins are hoping that he can return toward the end of the regular season or the playoffs if his rehab goes as planned. Godchaux […]

Preston Williams (WR, MIA) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Although Preston Williams has featured heavily in Miami's start of the season (he only trails DeVante Parker with 235 to the WR1's 255 snaps), he has been a little bit disappointing in terms of production. In five play, although Williams is the WR2 […]

Week 5 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!

Unlike Week 4 where 17 quarterbacks scored at least 20-fantasy points, only 11 quarterbacks reached that same mark in Week 5. Patrick Mahomes finished the week as the No. 1 quarterback on the week, while Ryan Fitzpatrick finished No. 2 in surprising fashion against a tough 49ers Defense. Travis Kelce finished Week 5 as the […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, MIA) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Of course, this being Ryan Fitzpatrick we're discussing here when the rumors started to get hot about a potential benching in favor of Tua, our beloved Fitzmagic had his best game in ages. The Dolphins paid a no. 5 pick to draft Tua […]

Isaiah Ford Quiet During Week 5

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford was not able to do much damage during the Week 5 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. He hauled in both of his targets for 23 yards in the win. He was coming off a performance where he saw a season-high 10 targets, but wasn't able to do much […]

Mike Gesicki Bounces Back Against 49ers

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki came into this Week 5 matchup with two total receptions over the last two weeks. However, Gesicki was able to rebound against the San Francisco 49ers. He hauled in five of his six targets for 91 yards in the win. To be fair, most of his yardage was from […]

Preston Williams Goes Over 100 Yards

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams had his biggest game of the season against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5. He hauled in four of his five targets for 106 yards and one touchdown in the win. This was a great performance by Williams, but he was facing a practice squad defensive back. However, […]

DeVante Parker Finds The End Zone In Week 5

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker was fairly quiet during the Week 5 win over the San Francisco 49ers. He hauled in two of his three targets for 50 yards and one touchdown in the victory. It's surprising that Parker only saw three targets after getting thrown at 12 times last week. Regardless, he was […]

Matt Breida Gets Nine Carries Against 49ers

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida saw a higher usage during the Week 5 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Jordan Howard was a healthy scratch, so Breida was promoted to the No. 2 back. Breida saw a season-high nine carries for 28 yards in the victory. He has been horrendous all season long and […]

Jordan Howard A Healthy Scratch In Week 5

Miami Dolphins running back Jordan Howard was a healthy scratch for the Week 5 contest against the San Francisco 49ers. We really can't blame the Dolphins after Howard posted a total of 14 rushing yards through the first four games. Myles Gaskin has become the clear cut lead back in Miami. Matt Breida gets a […]

Myles Gaskin Scores Touchdown In Victory

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin continues to succeed as the lead back in Miami. He rushed 16 times for 57 yards and one touchdown in the Week 5 win over the San Francisco 49ers. Gaskin also hauled in five receptions for 34 yards through the air. Jordan Howard was a healthy scratch in this […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Torches 49ers Defense

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick had an excellent game against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5. Fitzpatrick completed 22 of 28 passing attempts for 350 passing yards and three touchdowns in the win. This was the second straight week that Fitzpatrick has thrown over 300 games in a game. The Dolphins continue to bring […]

Jordan Howard Is Surprise Inactive

Miami Dolphins running back Jordan Howard is a surprise inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers. Howard's role this year has mostly been down near the end zone, so maybe the Dolphins just want to make some more space on the active roster for versatile players? If Howard is indeed healthy, this doesn't bode well […]
