Week 16 Daily Fantasy Football Stacks: Ben Roethlisberger - Antonio Brown, Blake Bortles - Allen Robinson, Russell Wilson - Doug Baldwin
Stacking, or pairing a quarterback with a pass catcher from the same team, is one of the most popular strategies when building a lineup for daily fantasy. This is especially true for GPP (guaranteed prize pool) tournaments, where you're trying to maximize your points across the roster. We typically highlight this strategy each week in the […]
Week 15 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis
Strangely, for as many unfortunately timed injuries as there were in week 15, most of them appear to be straight forward enough that they’re best served holding off on discussing until we get into the individual games. I will say, however, that outside of a few exceptions, most of the replacement level players won’t be […]
Top 3 Upset Picks for Week 16 of the NFL Season
Last week my picks were 0-3 straight up, but 2-1 against the spread. I really thought it would be a crazy upset week. It had that feel. Maybe this week sees a nutty upset. Recap of Picks The Giants had no business even being on the same field with the Panthers for three quarters […]

Week 15 Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds: Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Zach Miller and Tyler Kroft
Unless you are in a fantasy football league that does not believe in a postseason and goes by cumulative point totals (which is silly), your league is in the thick of the playoffs and hopefully your squad qualified for them. This is not the time to make a boneheaded Leon Lett-like decision if you are […]
Week 15 QB Waiver Wire Streamers: Alex Smith, Ryan Fitzpatrick & A.J. McCarron
I hope you made it through your first playoff matchup or advanced into the playoffs in Week 14! Unfortunately the QB streams were pretty disappointing. Tyrod Taylor delivered a decent game that meets our standards but it was still underwhelming given the matchup. In a huge surprise, Jameis Winston totally flopped on what should have […]

Boom and Bust Candidates for Week 14: Jameis Winston, Devonta Freeman, Randall Cobb & More!
Congratulations to all who made the postseason! There’s a lot of luck involved in head-to-head fantasy football on a week-to-week basis, but making the playoffs is a true test of skill.

Week 14 DraftKings Cheap Tournament Plays: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Tyler Lockett, Austin Seferian-Jenkins & More
December is here and we're approaching that home stretch of football where we have plenty of data under our belts to work with.

Week 13 Boom and Bust Candidates: Russell Wilson, Doug Martin, Alshon Jeffery & More!
It’s do or die time for millions of fantasy football players this week.

Week 12 Boom and Bust Candidates: Drew Brees, Odell Beckham Jr., LeSean McCoy & More
We’re at the point of the season where just one more win may get you into the postseason, and just one more loss may keep you out. It may be the most wonderful time of the year as far as holiday season, but in fantasy football land, this is the end of the line for […]
Week 12 QB Waiver Wire Streamers: Jameis Winston, Brock Osweiler, Johnny Manziel
In Week 11, all three of my waiver wire streamers from last week's column reached double digits, but none of them really went off. I felt like Ryan Fitzpatrick really didn’t play well at all but he saved his day with a rushing score. On the opposite end, Alex Smith had a great game with […]

Chris Ivory, Doug Martin, Mark Ingram: Running Backs Showing Warning Signals?
The 2015 fantasy season has essentially become a battle to see who the last team standing is. I mean that as close to literally as possible. There has been so many injuries and disappointing draft picks, especially at the running back position. A week after Le'Veon Bell was lost for the season, New England running back […]

Tight Ends Waiver Wire: Week 10 Pickups and Adds
Fantasy football gets a little more back to normal this week after owners had to suffer through a bye week where a half-dozen teams were off. You're probably not sweating as much this week with your Tight End. San Diego’s Antonio Gates is the most valuable tight end that is off, and most of the quality […]
Austin Sefarian-Jenkins a Great Injury Stash
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 50% Ownership on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The hardest market to find waiver pickups is always at tight end. ASJ should be returning to the lineup next week (or soon), and should have the highest upside of any tight end you can find on the waivers. The Buccaneers are going […]
Jameis Winston Needs Some Help from His Teammates
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 38% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I think Marcus Mariota has received more recognition for some big numbers and a big OT win in Week 9.

Week 10 Waiver Wire & QB Streamers: Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota & Kirk Cousins
Week 9 saw Tyrod Taylor deliver an acceptable performance. It wasn’t great, but I’ll take 15 points from a QB streamer any week. Meanwhile I should have expected it, but Kirk Cousins was disappointing. My options at 25% or less were Johnny Manziel, Blaine Gabbert and Matt Cassel. There was no chance I was starting […]
