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 […]

Extracting Fantasy Value from Winless Teams
It's typically a good rule of thumb to invest in good offenses when playing fantasy football. After all, good offenses score points and points are kind of what makes this whole fantasy football train roll down the tracks. But that doesn't mean all bad offenses deserve to be quarantined from fantasy owners' rosters. Let's take […]

Fantasy Football Booms, Busts: Week 6 Lineups
Week 6 will be a test for fantasy football players and owners. This the NFL’s first bye week of the season where more than two teams are off. The good news for fantasy players is that the four teams on bye – Chicago, Indianapolis, Buffalo and Oakland – are not exactly loaded with explosive offenses […]
Preston Williams Could Surge in Value
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams is on a team that seems to be actively trying to lose, but he could still be in for a big week with the winless Washington Redskins coming into town. While Williams has only scored one touchdown in 2019 and has yet to reach 70 yards in any game, […]
Albert Wilson, Kalen Ballage Questionable
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf, hip) and running back Kalen Ballage (foot) were both limited in practice on Friday and are questionable for Week 6 against the Redskins. Both players should be able to suit up in this excellent matchup. Wilson hasn't played since Week 1, but he could be a sneaky DFS […]
Devante Parker Has Important Audition in Week 6
The subject of trade rumors all season, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker will have his best chance to succeed before the October 29 trade deadline, as he's facing a great matchup against the Washington Redskins in Week 6. Usually a touchdown-dependent boom-or-bust option, Parker scored for the first time in Miami's last game and […]
Kenyan Drake Enters the Conversation
Like the rest of his winless team, Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake has been a fantasy dud in 2019 thus far, totaling just 220 yards and zero touchdowns in four games. The good news is that after getting only six touches in Week 1, Drake's usage has been steadily increasing, with him receiving 11, […]
Josh Rosen Could Finally Find Success
Recently confirmed by head coach Brian Flores as the starter for the remainder of the season, Miami Dolphins quarterback Josh Rosen has his best chance to shine in Week 6 with the winless Washington Redskins coming to town. While the Dolphins are certainly horrible, Rosen's performances haven't been helped by an early schedule filled with […]
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 […]
Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 6 (Top 100)
Week 6 is here and we roll on with our weekly lineup recommendations. Some of the best defenses in football are on bye (Chicago, Buffalo) so it's likely that fantasy owners in IDP leagues will need to scour the waiver wire for help at one position or another. That's why we're here, not just to […]
Preston Williams (WR, MIA) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Preston Williams is exactly the type of player I love the make a living off during the season. No one wants to have a single share of the Dolphins offense, which is reasonable. Devante Parker, who isn't that bad, is the most-owned player […]
Sam Darnold (QB, NYJ) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Sam Darnold is finally back--or so he should be. Everything pointed to a Week 5 return, but Darnold himself and the Jets staff both deemed it too risky to push the sophomore to make an appearance this early. But Week 6 will see […]
Albert Wilson Limited This Week
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf, hip) has been limited in practices on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Wilson aggravated his calf in the season opener and hasn't played since, although he had the bye week to heal up and could return in Week 6 against the Redskins in a nice matchup. Wilson figures […]

Josh Rosen The Starter The Rest Of The Way
Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said that the team's quarterback situation is "settled" and that Josh Rosen will be the guy the rest of the season.

Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
If you thought the waiver wire was getting barer every passing week, you would be correct. These days, a half-decent running back can't gain more than two yards without getting snatched up by desperate fantasy owners. The wide receiver position is more promising, however. While there aren't many surprises at QB or TE, the first […]
