Dalvin Cook Solid On Sunday Night

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook was solid during the narrow win over the Cowboys on Sunday, finishing with 26 carries for 97 yards and a score. Cook also contributed as a receiver, leading the team with seven receptions for 86 yards on a night where Adam Thielen (hamstring) sat. He remains in the conversation […]

Stefon Diggs Catches Three Passes In Win

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs recorded three receptions (six targets) for 49 yards in the win over the Cowboys on Sunday. With Adam Thielen (hamstring) out in this one, Diggs wasn't able to capitalize. Instead, he was relegated to the role of onlooker, with Dalvin Cook getting involved in all areas on the night. […]

Kirk Cousins Plays Well On Sunday Night

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 23 of his 32 passing attempts, while also throwing two touchdown tosses, both to Kyle Rudolph, during the narrow win over the Cowboys on Sunday night. The veteran received plenty of support, however, as Dalvin Cook was up to usual high jinx by rushing for 97 yards and a […]

Week 10 Wide Receiver / Cornerback Matchups To Target in Week 10

In Week 9, the Seahawks defeated the Buccaneers 40-34 and, as expected, provided some offensive fireworks. The high-scoring contest resulted in Tyler Lockett, Mike Evans, and D.K. Metcalf all finishing in the top-three of fantasy scoring at the wide receiver position. Tyreek Hill proved to be too fast for the Vikings secondary, finishing as the […]

Week 10 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

We've arrived at the dreaded six-team bye week, so there are even fewer DST streaming options out there than normal.

Week 10 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

If you had the 49ers in your pool for the last remaining unbeaten team in 2019 before the season started, well, you're probably lying. They had a scare from the Cardinals on Halloween but pulled it out on the road to go to 8-0. The NFL's only other undefeated team, the Patriots, faced their first […]

Dealing For The Future: Prime Dynasty League Trade Targets

It has not been a successful and exciting fantasy football season for everyone. If you have six losses in a league that has 13 regular season weeks, you likely must win out to make the playoffs. In dynasty leagues, one more defeat and you are looking at building for next season. Some owners with two […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch - Darius Slayton, Alexander Mattison, Ryan Finley

By Week 10 of the NFL season, it almost feels a bit disingenuous to still refer to first-year players "rookies." After all, most of them have seen plenty of on-field action at this point. But hey, the term is still technically accurate and therefore will continue to be used in this column. Just know, for […]

Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 10 (Top 100)

Hopefully you weren't burned by the last-minute scratch of Leighton Vander Esch last week. We'll omit him from this week's rankings until we know for sure his neck issues won't keep him out again.

Inside the Tent - Week 10 NFL Injury Insight

At RotoBaller, we can't stress enough the importance of keeping up with injuries and playing your best lineup week after week. Players are going to get injured, that's an unavoidable fact.

Dan Bailey A Solid Choice

Minnesota Vikings kicker Dan Bailey is the second-highest-scoring kicker in fantasy over the last five weeks. He's 10-for-11 in field goal attempts and 16-for-17 in extra points during the stretch. He faces a Dallas Cowboys team smack in the middle of the pack in allowing opposing kickers to score. Opponents are 8-for-8 in field goal […]

Kyle Rudolph A Sneaky Fill-In

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph is the epitome of the boom-or-bust tight end in fantasy. He has done some booming of late, though, with touchdowns in two of the last three games. In fact, of his 20 reception on the season, 11 of them have come in the last three games. The Dallas Cowboys […]

Alexander Mattison Not An Option

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison remains a risky option in fantasy. He's averaging 4.7 yards per carry, but he has just one touchdown and doesn't contribute in the passing game. The Dallas Cowboys haven't been as good against the position as they were earlier in the season, and they're a midrange matchup for him. […]

Adam Thielen Officially Declared Out For SNF

After removing himself from the Vikings' Week 9 matchup, Thielen's status for this week was cloudy at best. He has officially been ruled out after not practicing on Friday. The hamstring injury that has bothered Thielen since Week 7 has not yet cleared up, and his status moving forward will remain murky until we begin […]

Top NFL Betting Expert Picks For Week 10 (11/10/19)

Vikings Defense In A Sneaky Week 10 Spot

The Vikings Defense has been a consistent fantasy option through nine weeks of the season. They rank sixth in fantasy points, sixth in sacks (28), sixth in interceptions (eight), ninth in fumble recoveries (six), and fourth in points allowed per game (17.6). They face off with the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10 and while it's […]

Olabisi Johnson Isn't A Recommended Streaming Option

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Olabisi Johnson will resume his role as the de facto No. 2 receiver with Adam Thielen (hamstring) out for Week 10 against the Dallas Cowboys. Johnson scored his second touchdown of the year in Week 9 and has caught seven of 12 targets for 71 yards in his last three games, […]

Stefon Diggs Is A High-End WR2 In Week 10

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs had a really tough game in Week 9, as he hauled in just one of four targets for four yards in a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The Dallas Cowboys and their top-notch pass defense are on tap in Week 10, which is less than ideal for Diggs' […]

Dalvin Cook Remains A High-End RB1 Against Cowboys

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook had 116 scrimmage yards and four catches in Week 9, but it was a bit of a disappointing game given the extremely forgiving matchup. The Cowboys Defense await in Week 10, a unit that held Saquon Barkley to 28 rushing yards in Week 9 and hasn't given up a […]

Kirk Cousins Is A Middling QB2 In Week 10

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins threw for 220 yards and three touchdowns in Week 9, giving him a sparkling 13/1 TD/INT ratio over his last five contests. Those games came against below-average defenses; Week 10's road matchup against the Dallas Cowboys is quite a different story. The Cowboys Defense has only allowed exactly one quarterback […]

Adam Thielen Absent At Practice Thursday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) watched practice off to the side for the second straight day on Thursday. Thielen is not expected to play on Sunday night against the Cowboys after he aggravated his hamstring in the Week 9 loss to the Chiefs. There's also a chance the Vikings hold Thielen out next […]
