Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Even in today’s NFL, quarterbacks get hit to the ground rather often -- and usually, they bounce right back up. Aaron Rodgers did not bounce right back up, and could now miss the rest of the 2017 season with a broken collarbone. The bright side of losing a QB is that streaming that position tends […]

FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

Welcome to Week 7 everyone. With two more teams on bye (Lions, Texans) as we approach the midway point of the 2017 season, there are still players that can make a difference for your fantasy squads down the stretch as you attempt to make a playoff run. Below are my recommended FAAB waiver wire bids […]

Running Backs Waiver Wire - Week 7 Pickups and Adds

If you're back here looking for more options off the waiver wire at RB, chances are you didn't bother to pickup Adrian Peterson last week. While I certainly can't claim knowing he would look that good in Arizona, he was the top mention in last week's article and was by far more valuable as a […]

Tight Ends Waiver Wire - Week 7 Pickups and Adds

While there were plenty of movers and shakers on the fantasy scene, the tight end position didn't see as much volatility. Injuries have been the biggest story in the tight end world, but the tight ends remained healthy, at least during this past week. So here we are, feverishly looking to analyze statistics and projections to […]

Waiver Wire Rankings for Week 7

This is our priority list for running backs, wide receivers, tight ends and quarterbacks to add. Darren McFadden (48%) and Alfred Morris (54%) are sitting atop the list, just in case they are still available in your leagues. Go get 'em asap. We always receive a lot of questions of which players to add off the waiver […]

Deeper Sleepers for Standard Leagues (Week 7)

Last week I mentioned Brian Hoyer as a good streaming option, which quickly looked like a bad call when Hoyer was benched for C.J. Beathard. But hey--the 49ers offense looks surprisingly not terrible, so maybe I just had the wrong quarterback penciled in! But seriously, I don't know what to think about San Francisco--every week […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 6 Fantasy Football Picks

I'll start by repeating something profound I said in my podcast yesterday: Deshaun Watson is good. I'd put him at the top of this column once again, but it's too obvious in a matchup with Cleveland and you should be starting him anyway. Now that we got that out of the way, I'll continue by […]

10 Lineup Busts and Avoids for Week 6

It's Week 6. The Kansas City Chiefs are undefeated, the Patriots have looked average at many points, and the Houston Texans are suddenly an offensive oriented team. The NFL, y'all, where things change so fast. Case in point: Amari Cooper would have been cut already if his name wasn't Amari Cooper in all your fantasy […]

Dynasty League Rookie Round Up - Week 6

This column features a weekly look at rookie performances from a dynasty fantasy football perspective. This week I'll look at a few wide receivers who've gotten a lot of usage so far. I'll find other rookies from past seasons that have produced at a similar per-game pace, and see what stands out. Keep in mind that […]

Week 6 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

There was plenty of parity last week, but I have a feeling we're going to see some blowouts on Sunday. It feels a little funny putting a Jets tight end, a Texans quarterback, and a Broncos running back in my top five, but fantasy football is a funny game after all. As an expert ranker […]

Target Risers and Potential Breakouts for Week 6

Week 5 of the NFL season was, in a target share sense, fairly heavy on the chalk. Only two players owned in less than half of Yahoo leagues had more than eight balls thrown their way, as we see usage stabilize throughout the league and quarterbacks perhaps re-focusing on their proven commodities. I expect we'll […]

Fake News or Real Deal? Week 6 Waiver Outlooks

We've had a lot of developments heading into Week 6 (wow, already?) that will have an impact on things moving forward.

NFL Rookies To Watch In Week 6

Each week, we will look at rookies who have either performed well the previous few weeks or who have a favorable matchup in the upcoming week. These may be high-profile names or under-the-radar depth players; the only thing that matters is that they are first-year pros ready to make a name for themselves. Hopefully, by […]

#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers Week 6

There is one thing all fantasy football owners do well, and that’s overreact. Some owners do it more than others, but all owners do it. If a player has a great week then it’s buy, buy, buy. If a player has a horrible week then it’s sell, sell, sell. As soon as news broke of […]

Disaster Recovery Week 5 - Studs Turned Duds

Welcome to Disaster Recovery, where each week I'll examine why your studs played like duds. This isn't a place to find out why you should have benched a player for somebody on your bench. Disaster Recovery is to examine the guys who you didn't think twice about benching, and deciding if you should be panicking at all […]

Duke Johnson is Dynasty Gold

Let’s begin this article with an exercise. Close your eyes (not really because then you would not be able to read this) and imagine the player I am describing. In his first two years, he has totaled 1,793 total yards and three touchdowns on 178 rushing attempts and 114 receptions. In 2015, he finished as […]

Deeper PPR Sleepers For Week 6

Kudos to anyone who still has anything that even remotely resembles a healthy, usable lineup through five weeks. This is one of the most sporadic, soul-crushing fantasy football seasons I've ever been a part of, and I'm sure most long-time veterans would agree. It's ugly out there. Just need to keep on truckin' through the mud. […]

George Kittle (TE, SF) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-plus team leagues OWNED IN: 1% of leagues ANALYSIS: New head coach Kyle Shanahan and the Niners fell in love with the rookie Kittle in training camp and the preseason -- it prompted them to trade Vance McDonald to Pittsburgh -- but that hadn't really shown through the first four weeks. In Week […]
