The better part of three weeks is in the fantasy football books, making those early trends very real -- for better or worse.

There are millions of fantasy football owners who probably need a tight end this week, one that can somehow replace one of the best tight ends in the NFL.

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 4

This was a crazy week at the quarterback position, as the backups came out to play. We saw big performances from Daniel Jones, Kyle Allen, Gardner Minshew, and Teddy Bridgewater that few saw coming.

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 4)

This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]

Phillip Dorsett (WR, NE) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is hard to remember a shakier season around the Patriots receiving corps on and off the field, though everything seems to be finally falling into place.

The New York Jets Defense got shredded by Tom Brady and the Patriots but salvaged their fantasy day late.

His third pass hit Jamal Adams right between the numbers and the star safety returned it 61-yards for a […]

Ryan Griffin Makes One Catch Sunday

New York Jets tight end Ryan Griffin caught his only target for five yards in a loss to the Patriots Sunday afternoon. Griffin now has four catches for 15 yards on the season and continues to be a non-factor in fantasy. Griffin had an opportunity to start with Chris Herndon serving a four-game suspension but […]

Sam Ficken Converts Two Extra Points

New York Jets kicker Sam Ficken made two extra points and didn't attempt a field goal in a loss to the Patriots Sunday. Ficken has now made all three attempts as a Jet after signing with the team prior to Week 2. That should be enough to keep Ficken employed with the team given the […]

Jamison Crowder Has Quiet Day Vs Patriots

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder made two catches for 25 yards Sunday afternoon against the Patriots.

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios made two catches for 29 yards in a loss to the Patriots Sunday.

Robby Anderson Silent Against Patriots

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson made three catches for 11 yards in a loss to the Patriots Sunday. Anderson was targeted five times but could get nothing done as the Jets had just 105 yards of total offense with third-string QB Luke Falk making his first career start. Of all the Jets offensive […]

Luke Falk Struggles In New England

New York Jets quarterback Luke Falk was dreadful Sunday in New England completing 12 of 22 passes for 98 yards. Falk didn't lead a touchdown drive and threw an interception in the ugly loss.

Le'Veon Bell Gains 63 Yards In Loss

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell carried the ball 18 times for 35 yards and hauled in all four of his targets for 28 yards against the Patriots on Sunday.
