Kenny Stills Added To Active Roster For Week 3

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kenny Stills was added to the active roster and will suit up for the upcoming matchup against the Patriots. With Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring) and Michael Thomas (ankle) listed as occupants on the injured reserve list, Stills will add much-needed depth and stability to a team sorely lacking options outside of […]

Finding Tight End Breakouts And Busts – Week 3 Edition

Here’s the thing, when it comes to tight ends ranked outside the top-six, there are going to be a lot of mistakes. The position is extremely volatile and even the best options are prone to some extremely big clunkers. Their roles can change significantly week-to-week. Very few guys have locked-in roles like Darren Waller and […]

Week 2 Snap Count and Usage Analysis

Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill-set. A running back […]

Marshon Lattimore Will Play In Week 3

New Orleans Saints defensive back Marshon Lattimore (thumb) is expected to play Week 3 against the New England Patriots. He was a full participant in Friday's practice and removed from the team's injury report altogether. Lattimore's presence only helps the Saints secondary, and the star cornerback's return is a downgrade to Mac Jones and the […]

Offensive Outliers From Week 2 - Coaching Matters

We now enter the second week of this series, where I dive into offensive areas that will improve or decline based on coaching in order to glean insight as to fantasy football value. In Week 2, we saw stat lines such as the Cowboys running backs combining for 180 rushing yards, the Cleveland Browns wide receivers getting just five targets, […]

Saints Defense Set To Receive A Boost In Week 3

New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (thumb), defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson (knee), linebacker Pete Werner (hamstring) and defensive end Tanoh Kpassagnon (calf) will all play in Week 3 against the New England Patriots after missing the Week 2 loss to the Carolina Panthers. It's great news for a Saints defense that is firmly in the […]

Trade Them in Dynasty Before It's Too Late

Last week, I discussed players worth acquiring in dynasty leagues before their stock continued to rise. You can read that article here, as it's still relevant in the dynasty realm. This time, we'll do the opposite and examine a few players to consider moving on from before the rug is pulled from underneath you and […]

Bold Predictions for Week 3

Bold predictions are always meant to be taken with a grain of salt but ideally, they are not a bunch of takes thrown like excrement at a wall with the hope of sticking. These predictions come with backing to make them somewhat substantiated with the obvious caveat that it's playing into a range of outcomes […]

Aldrick Rosas Should Remain On Benches Against Patriots

New Orleans Saints kicker Aldrick Rosas is not a strong start this week. The kicker has been accurate thus far, making his only field-goal attempt and all six extra-point attempts in two games. Nevertheless, with the Saints' offense not firing on all cylinders all the time, that likely will limit the opportunities for Rosas. On […]

Saints Defense A Low-End Starting Option Against Patriots

The New Orleans Saints defense is a low-end starting option against New England in Week 3. The unit dominated Aaron Rodgers and the Packers in Week 1 before falling to Sam Darnold and the Panthers last week while allowing 26 points. The consistency of this unit is yet to be seen but it's encouraging that […]

Juwan Johnson Not A Starting Option In Week 3

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson is not a starting-caliber option in Week 3 against New England. While the TE has outshined his counterpart, Adam Trautman, in the first two weeks, he hasn't posted all that impressive numbers, just four receptions for 44 yards and two scores on six targets. Johnson hasn't proved yet […]

Deonte Harris Faces Tough Matchup Against New England

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris is not a worthy starter this week against the Patriots. Though the WR has paced the team in receiving yards through two games, it's not saying much as he has a total of three receptions for 81 yards and a score on four targets. Overall, the Saints' passing […]

Marquez Callaway Should Remain Benched In Week 3

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway should remain well off your starting radar in Week 3. The WR thrived in the preseason with Jameis Winston but has failed to translate that success to the regular season as he has managed three receptions for 22 yards on six targets in two games. The Saints' passing […]

Alvin Kamara An RB1 Against New England

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is an RB1 against the Patriots in Week 3. Kamara started off the season with a bang after posting 83 rushing yards in Week 1, but he was completely stuffed in Week 2 and only managed five rushing yards. His presence in the passing game has been limited […]

Jameis Winston Not A Worthy Starter Against Patriots

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston is not a viable starter against the Patriots in Week 3. Winston has started off the season in no other matter than he's always shown, which is inconsistent. After throwing fives scores in the season opener, the QB followed it up in Week 2 with no touchdowns and two […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The New Orleans Saints offense was absolutely abysmal in Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers.

Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Week 2 was ugly in the early slate with low-scoring games and QB injuries across the board. Things picked up through the afternoon but the typical surprises that make fantasy football so aggravating at times resurfaced. Touchdown vultures, mid-game injuries, and big-name duds (looking at you, Alvin Kamara) were all present. Nevertheless, we move on to […]
