Cam Newton Unlikely To Be Back For Week 5

New England patriots quarterback Cam Newton (COVID-19) is unlikely to be back for Week 5 after testing positive for COVID-19. Nothing is set in stone yet, but Newton would have to pass two tests once the virus leaves his body, which becomes harder when there's just one week to do it. It seems likely that […]

Week 4 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Another week, and another six out of the top 10 defenses correct. Some of the top ones were gimmes, and I'm a little surprised by how the Chargers Defense laid an egg versus Carolina and the way the Bills Defense just seemed totally lost against the Rams in the second half. I'm happy I trusted […]

Julian Edelman, Sony Michel Land Questionable Tags

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (knee) and running back Sony Michel (quadriceps) are both listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Chiefs. Both players were limited in practice all week, so we'd expect them both to play. The bigger concern here is whether this game will be played at all in Week […]

Brian Hoyer Expected To Start Against Chiefs

The New England Patriots are expected to start veteran quarterback Brian Hoyer whenever they play the Chiefs, according to sources. Cam Newton tested positive for COVID-19 and has been ruled out against Kansas City. The NFL is currently planning to move the Week 4 game from Sunday to either Monday or Tuesday, but that's not […]

NFL DFS - Defenses to Feast On in Week 4

Nothing is more important than matchup analysis when it comes to fantasy football. It is becoming clear that the Colts, 49ers, Chargers and Patriots Defenses are looking like units you want to avoid because they limit opposing passing attacks and point opportunities. On the other side of things it's becoming even more clear that the Seahawks, […]

Cam Newton Tests Positive For COVID-19, Out For Week 4

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss the Week 4 game against the Chiefs. Newton will likely have to miss more than just one game as he quarantines, so his fantasy managers will have to reverse course quickly and go in another direction. It's really bad news for the […]

NFL DFS Value Plays for Week 4 (Premium Content)

All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard.

N'Keal Harry Could Struggle Against Chiefs

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry has been a tough player to judge through the first three weeks of the regular season. His performance seems to change each week, so it's a struggle to own him in fantasy leagues right now. Harry is coming off a disappointing game where he finished with two receptions […]

Julian Edelman A Strong WR3 Play For Week 4

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman is looking to rebound after his dud performance against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3. Edelman hauled in two of six targets for 23 yards in the victory. It was a disappointing game for Edelman after he posted a career-high 179 receiving yard performance the week prior. […]

Rex Burkhead Might Disappoint In Week 4

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead was a popular waiver-wire add after his outstanding performance against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3. That was a fantastic game from Burkhead, who finished with three touchdowns, but fantasy owners shouldn't expect it to happen again. James White (personal) is expected to return after missing the […]

Sony Michel Has Low-End Flex Value Against Chiefs

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel is coming off an incredible 117-yard performance versus the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3. However, fantasy owners should not expect that type of performance from Michel again. James White (personal) is expected to be back, which will hurt the value of both Michel and Rex Burkhead. Michel […]

James White Expected To Play In Week 4

New England Patriots running back James White has missed each of the last two games due to a family tragedy. He was able to return to practice on Thursday, so it sounds like he'll be ready for the Week 4 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. He'll slide back into his role as the main […]

Cam Newton Hopeful For Rebound Performance

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton is beginning to look healthy and able to lead an offense once again. Sadly, his weapons in New England aren't great, which has hurt his fantasy value. In Week 3, Newton threw for 162 passing yards with one touchdown and one interception in the victory over the Las Vegas […]

RB Insurance Report: Essential Adds and Backfield Updates
