Week 3 Booms and Busts: Late Games

Week Three Booms QB Russell Wilson, SEA: The Seahawks are much better than their 0-2 record indicates.  The Bears are not.  Chicago has been gashed for seven passing touchdowns already this season, which is worst in the league.  Enter a Seattle passing attack still looking to incorporate it's new, shiny toy in Jimmy Graham.  The Seahawks […]

Two weeks are now in the books, and there’s more than enough to react to. Most importantly, keep your wits about you--look at who each team has gone against and who they’re about to face.

Deeper PPR Lineup Sleepers for Week 3: Josh Robinson, Rishard Matthews, Scott Chandler

Rishard Matthews (WR, MIA) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Coming off of his first 100-yard game in almost two years, Matthews is certainly seen as a hot commodity this week.

Week 2 Booms and Busts: Late Games

Booms: QB Sam Bradford, PHI: I had Bradford in this space last week, and while he didn't boom in the first half, he came pretty close to doing so in the second half. The Eagles offense looking out of sync in its first regular season game on the road was not a shock. However, there is no […]

The Miami Dolphins managed a steal in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft with Jay Ajayi, a running back out of Boise State.

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Mid Rounds as QB1 CURRENT ADP: 99 STD, 108 PPR ANALYSIS: It may come as a surprise to some that Ryan Tannehill was the eighth highest scoring fantasy quarterback last season.

What To Expect from Miami's Jarvis Landry in 2015

2014 exceeded expectations for Landry by almost all accounts, but it also left a lot to be desired for his future outlook. At 5’11 and 200 pounds, Landry isn’t much of a downfield threat with a forty time in the 4.7 range and his small body frame, but he made up for his body limitations […]

Why Ryan Tannehill Can Be An Elite Fantasy Football QB in 2015

It may come as a surprise to some that Ryan Tannehill was the eighth highest scoring fantasy football quarterback last season.
