Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts - Week 10

Fantasy footballers are going to have to live without some things this upcoming week. Fantasy football owners will not get a 100-yard receiving game out of Minnesota’s Adam Thielen, a touchdown toss from Houston’s Deshaun Watson, or a sack out courtesy of Denver’s Von Miller this week. That is because those fantasy superstars’ teams are […]

Rebuilding Your Dynasty Franchise Through the Trade Market

I have six fantasy leagues. When I get asked my co-workers and friends like clockwork on Monday how I did each weekend in fantasy, my answer is almost always 5-1, or 4-2. Sure, I've had a week or two where I've gotten to say "undefeated" casually while I pour the coffee into my cup without looking, super […]

Quincy Enunwa Misses Another Practice Thursday

New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (ankle) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. Enunwa returned from his high ankle sprain to catch three of four targets for 40 yards last Sunday, and he didn't seem to suffer any setbacks. The Jets could just be giving him extra rest, but he'll need to get […]

Sam Darnold Officially Ruled Out As Starter

New York Jets head coach Todd Bowles has ruled out rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) as the starter for Week 10 against the Bills. However, the team won't rule him out as the backup to Josh McCown just yet. Darnold has struggled mightily in the last three games, so it gives the Jets a chance […]

WR Target and Snap Count Risers from Week 9

Your wide receivers remain essential components toward accomplishing your unwavering goal of securing a league championship. As the season unfolds, it is crucial for you to utilize the tools that you have available, in order to maintain an extensive level of knowledge regarding the number of opportunities that are being provided to your wide receivers […]

Robby Anderson Missing Practice Again Thursday

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson (ankle) is missing practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Anderson missed two practices last week before suiting up on Sunday, so the hope is that will happen again this week. Anderson showed more chemistry with quarterback Josh McCown -- who will start this Sunday -- last […]

Josh McCown To Start Against Bills

With New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) dealing with a foot sprain, veteran Josh McCown will get the start in Week 10 against the Bills, according to a source. Darnold will be re-evaluated after the Week 11 bye, but his status for Week 12 is "uncertain" for now. Consider Darnold week-to-week for now. […]

Robby Anderson, Quincy Enunwa Not Practicing

New York Jets wide receivers Robby Anderson (ankle) and Quincy Enunwa (ankle) both did not practice on Wednesday. Both receivers returned to play in Week 9 and are likely just being rested early in the week after missing games with their injuries. The Jets will be forced to go with quarterback Josh McCown this week […]

Sam Darnold Week-To-Week With Foot Sprain

New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) is dealing with a sprained foot and is week-to-week, according to a source. Darnold will not play in Week 10 against the Bills, but it might be a blessing in disguise, as he's been awful in the last three games and tossed four interceptions in an ugly […]

Sam Darnold In Walking Boot

New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) has a walking boot on his right foot and is not practicing on Wednesday. Darnold said he was "fine" on Monday after admitting after the Week 9 loss that he was "dinged up." That wouldn't seem to bode well for Darnold's chances of playing in Week 10 […]

Jets Don't Think Sam Darnold Has Regressed

Despite New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold's recent struggles, the team doesn't feel like he has regressed since the beginning of the season. He has a 43.3 passer rating in the last three games and threw four interceptions in the Week 9 loss to the Dolphins. The Jets won't even consider benching Darnold in […]

Elijah McGuire (RB, NYJ) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN:  14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: New York Jets running back Elijah McGuire made his 2018 debut in Week 9, totaling 67 yards on 10 touches. That's better than it sounds considering how ineffective the Jets were in all other aspects of the game. Bilal Powell isn't coming back and Isaiah Crowell won't […]

Quincy Enunwa (WR, NYJ) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Leagues ANALYSIS: New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa was one of the hot names to begin the season. Enunwa averaged 13.45 PPR points during the first four weeks of the season and the volume seemed to be coming from Sam Darnold. After an injury to Enunwa, […]

FAAB Bidding - Week 10 Waiver Wire Targets

As an addendum to our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, in this column we also present suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB). As a caveat, these prices do not by any means indicate how much […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions

Offense reigns supreme in the NFL these days. In Week 9, we saw scores of 45-35, 42-28, 37-21, and 38-14. Also, the Bears scored 41 and the 49ers put up 34 in shellackings of lesser opponents. That was with six teams on bye. Not every vulture or opportunistic backup is worth owning in fantasy leagues but […]

Week 10 Running Backs - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

We now enter the planning process for Week 10, as some of you are contending with backs that have been inconsistent or completely absent due to lingering injuries, while others are receiving disappointing results from runners that you originally believed would be among your most dependable performers. Fortunately, you now have an opportunity to utilize your […]

Week 10 Wide Receivers - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Not much time is left in the fantasy football season, so decisions are critical right now. With the waiver wire so thin, a week of injuries can leave you scrambling last minute. Stefon Diggs was a surprise scratch this week and if you didn’t work the waiver wire prior to his scratch, then you may […]

Week 10 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

As the season rolls on, the kicker position is always a tough one to gauge. There are so few players locked in as starters that you sometimes have to hope you get lucky. After producing double digits only three times all season, why would Chicago Bears kicker Cody Parkey put up 11 this week? That's […]

Week 10 Tight Ends - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

The fantasy football season is more than halfway over! Minnesota’s Kyle Rudolph is the only tight end with any fantasy relevance on bye this week, and even he is not as big of a loss as he would have been in past seasons due to him not finding the end zone as often as in […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 10 Lightning Round

Week 9 felt a bit "chalkier" than other recent NFL slates, with many big names going off and very few lower-owned players coming on to vulture touchdowns from the big guns. There also weren't any notable injuries (as of Sunday evening), so the waiver wire will consist more of underappreciated assets rather than replacements. We here […]

Chris Herndon (TE, NYJ) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: No TD this week but New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon saw his highest yardage total of the year in Week 9. Despite the return of Quincy Enunwa, Herndon caught four passes for 62 yards, leading the team. He remains a high-end TE2 […]

Theo Riddick (RB, DET) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN:  9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Detroit Lions running back Theo Riddick is back after a three-week hiatus due to a knee injury and did his thing as usual. That thing involves catching passes and not running the ball whatsoever. Riddick was targeted eight times, catching seven for 36 […]

Sam Darnold (QB, NYJ) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you watched any of the Dolphins-Jets game, you want no part of New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold and his four-pick self. The bad field conditions and Spencer Long's inability to snap the ball can excuse some of it but Darnold still made […]

Return To Sender - Faces In New Places Who Have Disappointed

We are now nine weeks into the season and we have had enough time to evaluate what roles players have on their teams. Barring injury, those roles are unlikely to change a huge amount at this stage. We saw a lot of good players change teams in the offseason. Some have had success, like Kirk […]

Jermaine Kearse Leads in Targets Versus Dolphins

New York Jets wide receiver Jermaine Kearse led the Jets in targets against the Dolphins, but was sadly unable to do much with it. Kearse only caught three passes for 20 yards in the 13-6 loss. He saw eight targets even with Quincy Enunwa and Robby Anderson back on the field. Quarterback Sam Darnold has […]

Robby Anderson Hauls in Four Receptions

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson missed Week 8 versus the Bears, but was healthy enough to play against the Dolphins. Anderson caught four passes for 32 yards, but did not score a touchdown. The Jets offense was not strong in this one, so it's not surprising most of the players didn't have big […]

Quincy Enunwa is Quiet in Return

New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa saw his first game action since Week 6, but sadly wasn't able to do much against the Dolphins. Enunwa caught three passes for 40 yards and was unable to find the end zone. He looked healthy, but quarterback Sam Darnold was just not able to get Enunwa more […]

Chris Herndon Ends Touchdown Streak

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon IV had a three-game touchdown streak heading into the Week 9 matchup against the Dolphins. Herndon caught all four of his targets for 62 yards, but failed to find the end zone. He did damage during the first half, but didn't see much action at all after halftime. […]

Elijah McGuire Has Lackluster Season Debut

New York Jets running back Elijah McGuire made his season debut in Week 9, but it didn't go perfectly. McGuire rushed seven times for 30 yards and caught three passes for 37 yards in the loss to the Dolphins. McGuire actually performed better than lead back Isaiah Crowell, but was given less opportunities. Crowell has […]
