Picking Up The Pieces After Deshaun Watson's Injury

Week 9 Do Not Drop List - Don't Panic Yet
Now that we’ve passed the season’s halfway point, it’s much more difficult to come up with names for this list than it was in the early part of the season.

Say Goodbye to "Your Guys" - Trade to Win in Week 8
Trading is hard. People looooove their guys and love big names. The tendency is for us to evaluate players based on potential over reality. “Wait, you want to trade who for LeSean McCoy?

NFL Survivor League Picks (Week 8): Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids
What a boring Sunday that was. The matchups were bad and the games even worse. I love good defensive battles, but on Sunday that wasn't even the case.

Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
Week 7 was a rather ugly slate overall, though folks who didn’t bail on Ezekiel Elliott were handsomely rewarded (as were all Dallas-player stocks) and many might feel that “no news is good news” after we’ve seen several top players go down these past few weeks.
