Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
Week 6 was like the 2020 of fantasy football weeks. All those great matchups meant nothing, those studs let you down, and your bench likely went crazy. The good news is that we didn't have any season-ending injuries to running backs or games canceled due to COVID, so in retrospect maybe we shouldn't complain. The […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 7 Lightning Round
Week 6 was relatively healthy and had no coronavirus delays, so let's just take a moment to bask in that. That said, we still saw Miles Sanders (knee) and Zach Ertz (ankle) go down, while Mark Ingram (ankle) has a bye to get healthy. Week 7 byes are Baltimore, Indianapolis, Miami, and Minnesota. Let's get […]
Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7
Fantasy GMs are to be commended for rising to the unique challenges that have unfolded during this regular season. Injuries to critical players is an unwelcome reality that occurs every year. This is also the case for backs that were expected to operate as RB1s, but have been relegated to committees. However, this season has […]
Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7
Six weeks of NFL football are behind us, aside from a pair of Monday games, including a late afternoon game between the Bills and the Chiefs. In terms of wide receiver production this week, we didn't have the huge breakouts like we had in Week 5. Chase Claypool didn't score four touchdowns. In fact, only […]
Denzel Mims Has A Chance To Play Against Bills
New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said there's a chance that rookie wide receiver Denzel Mims (hamstring) plays in Week 7 against the Bills "as long as we don't have any setbacks." The second-round pick has yet to make his NFL debut for the winless Jets, but it may come this weekend against Buffalo. […]
Sam Darnold To Be Limited On Wednesday
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) will be limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a positive step for Darnold, who has missed the last two games with a sprained shoulder. Even if the 23-year-old gets cleared to return to the field this Sunday, he'll be hard to trust as a low-end QB2 in superflex […]
Dynasty Trade Targets for Rebuilding Teams
Maybe 2020 isn't going the way you planned. That could go for a lot of us in a lot of ways but this specifically refers to fantasy football. Maybe your dynasty team that once looked like a strong contender is sitting at the bottom of the standings with one lonely win or none at all. […]
The Cut List (Week 7) - Time to Let Go?
Even in the most bizarre of NFL seasons, the first six weeks of 2020 have provided us plenty of information with which to evaluate most players' rest-of-year outlooks. We've given our fringe starters the chance to show us something. We've held onto that tight end or wide receiver with breakout potential for more than a […]
Deeper League Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7
The NFL proceeded with Week 6 after several COVID scares last week. Fortunately, no games were canceled and teams were back in action.

Thursday Night Football Matchups Analysis - Week 7
After the NFL started with a scorching hot offensive showcase, last week was somewhat of a letdown. Many players came back down to earth for the first time this year. From the Tampa Bay defense smothering Aaron Rodgers to the Cardinals overpowering the dwindling Cowboys, something just didn’t feel the same last week. Thankfully, we […]
Frankie Luvu Heads To Injured Reserve With Groin Ailment
New York Jets linebacker Frankie Luvu (groin) will be out for at least the next three games after being placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday due to the groin injury that he sustained Sunday versus Miami. Luvu has accumulated seven tackles across six games this season, being used primarily on special teams. After having compiled […]

Adam Gase Not Optimistic About Sam Darnold Playing Sunday
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) is trending toward a third consecutive absence Sunday when his team takes on the Bills, as head coach Adam Gase was not optimistic Monday that his signal-caller would clear the necessary stages to get back on the field. It seems likely that New York will stick with veteran […]
Adam Gase Still Not Giving Up Play-Calling Duties
New York Jets head coach Adam Gase says that he isn't going to let someone else call the plays for the 0-6 Jets, saying that play-calling is "Step 10" for the team and that they are currently still on Step 2. It's not a surprise that Gase is being stubborn about this issue, as he's […]
La'Mical Perine (RB, NYJ) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 18% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Maybe, just maybe, you have heard about this guy Le'Veon Bell being cut by the New York Jets. Well, with Bell out of town everything the Jets backfield has to show for is a 58-year-old Frank Gore and 22-year old La'Mical Perine, a 2020 […]

Jeff Smith Quiet In Loss
New York Jets wide receiver Jeff Smith was not able to do much damage during the Week 6 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He saw 20 total targets over the last two games coming into this one. However, Smith was only targeted four times here and hauled in one of them for eight yards. The […]
Chris Herndon Posts Dud Versus Dolphins
New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon has been disappointing all season long and that continued during the Week 6 loss to the Miami Dolphins. Herndon was not even targeted during this game, which is pretty sad considering the Jets don't have many weapons on offense. Ryan Griffin saw three targets, but Herndon remained off […]
Breshad Perriman Finishes With Four Receptions In Week 6
New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman returned for the Week 6 matchup versus the Miami Dolphins after missing each of the last three games. He was able to haul in four of his eight targets for 62 yards in the loss. The Jets offense is horrendous, so really no one on that roster is […]
Jamison Crowder Gets Targeted 13 Times In Week 6
New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder continues to be basically the only player worth using in fantasy leagues on this roster. He hauled in seven of his 13 targets for 48 yards in the loss to the Miami Dolphins. Crowder has seen double digit targets in all four games he has played in this […]
La'Mical Perine Held In Check By Dolphins
Miami Dolphins running back La'Mical Perine should see an increased workload going forward after the release of Le'Veon Bell. He saw seven carries for 27 yards and hauled in two receptions for nine yards in the receiving game. For some reason the Dolphins continue to use veteran Frank Gore as the lead back. Perine has […]
Frank Gore Rushes 11 Times In Loss
New York Jets running back Frank Gore was the lead back for the Week 6 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Gore rushed 11 times for 46 yards with four receptions on four targets with 24 yards in the passing game. This was Gore's best game of the season in terms of PPR fantasy value. However, […]
Joe Flacco Plays Horrendous In Week 6
New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco was straight up awful against the Miami Dolphins in Week 6. He completed 21 of 44 passing attempts for 186 passing yards with zero touchdowns and one interception in the loss. There was really no upside from Flacco here and he can be avoided versus the Buffalo Bills in […]
