Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 6

Booms and Busts - Surprise Starts and Sits for Week 6 Lineups

Week 6 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

I was riding high after predicting eight out of the top ten defenses two weeks ago, but we saw some craziness this Sunday (along with some top tier defenses postponed or canceled), which caused only a 50% success rate in identifying top-10 units. Miami throttling San Francisco was truly a surprise, as was a Kansas […]

Week 6 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

This NFL season continues to be the weirdest one that I’ve seen in my lifetime.

If you ever think that you’re going to be able to accurately predict […]

Beginner's Luck? Chase Claypool, Travis Fulgham, Other WR Breakouts

It sometimes takes rookie wide receivers a season or two to reach their full potential. Davante Adams averaged 465 receiving yards in his first two NFL seasons. Michael Irvin had a total of 78 receptions in his first three NFL seasons. The 2014 season was a special one for rookie WRs. Mike Evans, Odell Beckham […]

Lies, Damned Lies, and Fantasy Statistics - Yards Per Carry

Are five games enough to start reading into ROS player values based on performance? Unlike baseball, where certain statistics can start to become reliable or "sticky" after a certain at-bat or innings-pitched threshold, it's never the case in football. It's a game where big individual plays make all the difference and only 16 games make […]

Dalvin Cook Ruled Out Against Falcons

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (groin) has been officially ruled out for Week 6 against the Falcons. This doesn't come as a huge surprise, as Cook didn't practice all week and will be rested ahead of the team's Week 7 bye. Backup Alexander Mattison will be an excellent plug-and-play RB1 this Sunday against the […]

Is JuJu Smith-Schuster Still a WR1?

In the last 10 seasons, only one man has been able to finish with more than 300 PPR points in fantasy leagues while playing wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers: Antonio Brown.

Dalvin Cook Misses Practice Again Thursday

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (groin) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday.
