GPP DFS Value Plays for FanDuel, DraftKings (Week 9) - Daily Fantasy Football Advice

I am writing my Week 9 GPP Value Plays while they are still diligently counting the mail-in votes here in Pennsylvania. I don't want to get too political, so I will simply say letting PA determine anything related to the rest of the country is a bad idea. One of the defining attributes of the […]

A.J. Brown Misses Practice Thursday With Knee Ailment

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) was held out of practice Thursday due to a knee ailment.

Having […]

Jadeveon Clowney's Status In Question For Week 9

Tennessee Titans defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (knee) didn't practice on Wednesday, and his status for Week 9 against the Bears is very much in question. If Clowney doesn't play this Sunday, it's also possible he'll miss Week 10 with the team having a quick turnaround against the Colts next Thursday. The 27-year-old oft-injured pass-rusher continues […]

Is Josh Allen Still a Fantasy QB1?

From my apartment balcony, I can see the storm clouds on the horizon. I watch as they move closer towards me and, just before the storm reaches me, I walk inside, close the door, return to a place of safety. No matter how bad the weather gets out there, I'm inside. I'm away from it […]

Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

We are officially in the second half of the fantasy season, so most of the waiver wire gems have been snatched up. The bye weeks continue and injuries keep mounting, though. This is a good time to plan for the playoffs by looking at high-end insurance policies and players who have favorable schedules down the […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 9

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 9

Week 8 was a day of windy football and didn't feature too many wide receivers coming out of nowhere. But that doesn't mean the waiver wire cupboard is bare for fantasy managers, as there's some definite value to be had this week. Not all options are the same. Some players may be better in PPR […]

D'Onta Foreman (RB, TEN) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It seems like a stretch of the imagination that the Derrick Henry-led, stout Titans running game could feed another mouth on the ground after the introduction of Jeremy McNichols, but it looks like D'Onta Foreman stands an excellent shot at becoming a worthy […]

Titans Release Johnathan Joseph

The Tennessee Titans released veteran cornerback Johnathan Joseph on Tuesday. The 15-year veteran defensive back made it just seven games into his Tennessee tenure before being let go. A two-time Pro Bowler with the Texans in 2011 and 2012, Joseph had 28 tackles (24 solo), one interception, four passes defensed and one forced fumble for […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 9 Lightning Round

Week 8 brought an action-packed week with its own batch of chaos, but any week without COVID-19 postponements feels like a win. Key injuries included George Kittle (ankle), Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle), T.Y. Hilton (groin), Kenny Golladay (hip), Tevin Coleman (knee), Darrell Henderson (thigh), Adam Humphries (concussion). Week 8 has these teams on bye: Bengals, Browns, Eagles, and Rams. […]

Titans Release Vic Beasley

The Tennessee Titans plan to release linebacker Vic Beasley on Wednesday after the free-agent signee underperformed and ruffled feathers in Nashville. Beasley signed a $9.5 million deal with the team, showed up 10 days late for training camp, and proceeded to register zero pressures or sacks in three contests as an edge rusher. Tennessee is […]

Corey Davis (WR, TEN) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 47% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Looking back at Corey Davis' career numbers, the concerns coming from fantasy GMs were understandable. Not anymore, I guess. Davis was meh as a rookie (6.3 PPG in 11 games), performed better in his second year (11.5 PPG in 16 games) but he came […]

Week 8 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!

Windy conditions impacted several games this week, and as a result only Patrick Mahomes eclipsed 30 fantasy points as teams seemingly relied more on the run given the weather. In Week 8 only seven quarterbacks cracked 20 points, so scoring was down in general. At tight end Travis Kelce was one of only two tight […]

Titans Defense Adds To Secondary With Desmond King

The Tennessee Titans acquired defensive back Desmond King from the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday in exchange for a sixth-round pick. The Chargers had been shopping the former All-Pro defensive back and punt returner in recent days and pulled the trigger after another heartbreaking loss in Week 8 to the division-rival Broncos on Sunday to […]

Derrick Henry Surpasses 100 Yards Against Bengals

Tennessee Titans star running back Derrick Henry carried the ball 18 times for 112 yards and a touchdown while failing to haul in his only target in Sunday's 31-20 loss to the Bengals.

A.J. Brown Finds End Zone For Fourth Straight Game

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown caught four of seven targets for 24 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-20 loss to the Bengals. Brown, who shrugged off a minor knee injury during the week, finished second on the team in targets but failed to strike for any plays longer than 10 yards. He did […]

Ryan Tannehill Has Pedestrian Output Against Bengals

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill completed 18 of 30 pass attempts for 233 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception while adding 20 yards on two carries during Sunday's 31-20 loss to the Bengals. Tannehill sports an impressive 17:3 TD: INT for the season, but his passing yardage totals have been inconsistent and he's now been […]

Corey Davis Leads Team In Targets and Catches Sunday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis caught eight of 10 targets for 128 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-20 loss to the Bengals.

Jonnu Smith Quiet In Week 8

Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith caught two passes for 29 yards in Sunday's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Those were Smith's only two targets. After a strong start to the season with five touchdowns in the first four games, Smith now had four total catches in the past three games. Smith is looking less […]

A.J. Brown Finds End Zone Against Bengals

It wasn't a huge game from him, but a touchdown salvaged a quiet Week 8 for Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown. Brown caught four passes for just 24 yards and took a backseat to Corey Davis at times. It's looking like Brown's not the true No. 1 receiver on this Titans team right now, […]

Corey Davis Leads Titans In Receiving Against Bengals

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis caught eight passes for 128 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Bengals. Davis led the team in receptions, targets, and yards, and saw double-digit targets for the second week in a row. We're finally seeing the Corey Davis we thought we'd see when the Titans used […]

Derrick Henry Hits 100-Yard Mark Against Bengals

Even in a game where his team trailed for most of the day, Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry still managed to get his chance to shine. Henry had 18 carries, finishing with 112 yards and a touchdown. Cincinnati struggled to contain the Titans run game, with Jeremy McNichols also adding 49 yards on four […]

Ryan Tannehill Throws Pair Of Touchdowns Against Cincy

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill threw for 233 yards on 18-for-30 passing in Sunday's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He threw two touchdowns and a pick, plus added 20 rushing yards. Tannehill has started to develop a nice rapport with wide receiver Corey Davis, which boosts Tannehill's stock going forward. Consider him a high-end QB2 […]

Adam Humphries Out With Concussion

After being carted into the locker room on Sunday against the Bengals, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Adam Humphries has been ruled out with a concussion. Humphries finishes the game without a reception. With Humphries out, Kalif Raymond should see more work in this Titans offense, which has struggled so far in this game as they […]

Corey Davis Has Upside Against Bengals

In Week 7, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis caught six passes for 35 yards and a touchdown. His yardage totals have been inconsistent all year, but Davis is getting looks and has scored a touchdown in half of his games. He's an interesting WR4 play in Week 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals whose role […]
