Week 10 Rankings Analysis - Nick Mariano vs. Industry ECR
Howdy, and welcome to the weekly column that puts my rankings front and center and compares them against the Expert Consensus Rankings (ECR). Who am I and why should you care? I was the ninth-most accurate in-season expert on FantasyPros out of 125 last season and am currently 26th out of 130 in 2018. One […]
Week 10 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football
The NFL season continues to tick along, and as we reach the first week of the season that has two numbers inside of one number in its name, we start to reach panic mode for some fantasy owners. You're sitting at 3-6 and you know another loss dooms you, and you can't risk putting someone […]
Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 10 Fantasy Football Picks
The playoffs are coming... but not yet. With all the talk of trade deadlines and ROS prep, we should keep one thing in mind - you have to get there first. I've seen teams sell high and buy low right out of contention because they forgot to actually win games in the process of preparing […]
Week 10 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions
I cannot believe it is Week 10 already! This season has flown by and things in the NFL are starting to settle down. The good teams are really starting to distinguish from bad and the pretenders are falling away a little bit. The same goes for the players in the consistency ratings. The best running […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 10): NFL DFS Lineups
We have a lot of good offenses on the main slate this week, with the Saints, Chiefs, Rams, Falcons, Patriots and Chargers all suiting up Sunday. The only offenses really missing are the Steelers and Panthers who met last night. In addition, a couple of the stingier defenses are out of the slate, with the […]
NFL DFS Week 10 - DraftKings Power Pivots
Thanks for joining me here at RotoBaller! Those of you that read last week's Power Pivots hopefully fared well, as our highlighted players had huge games in Week 9! I'm back on the grind for you, let's try to keep the positive momentum going as we head into Week 10. There were several games last […]
Taywan Taylor and Tajae Sharpe Both Questionable For Week 10
Tennessee Titans wide receivers Taywan Taylor and Tajae Sharpe are both officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. While neither are largely fantasy relevant themselves, the absence of both of them would be a serious blow to this offense. Marcus Mariota is going to need all of his weapons available […]
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 […]
Taywan Taylor, Tajae Sharpe Sitting Out Thursday
Tennessee Titans wide receivers Taywan Taylor (foot) and Tajae Sharpe (ankle) were both sitting out of practice on Thursday. Taylor is dealing with a more serious injury, but this is bad news for Tennessee's passing offense heading into Week 10 against the Patriots. Neither Taylor nor Sharpe have been of much use to fantasy owners […]
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 […]
Tajae Sharpe Puts In Limited Practice
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tajae Sharpe (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Sharpe appeared to injure himself in pre-game workouts on Monday night, but he played the entire game. He caught just one pass for no gain in the game, however, and isn't much of a fantasy option to begin with. Sharpe has 17 […]
Taywan Taylor Sitting Out Wednesday
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Taywan Taylor (foot) did not practice on Wednesday. Taylor is in danger of missing Week 10 against the Patriots. He has 21 catches on 30 targets this year for 214 yards and hasn't scored since Sept. 16. Taylor is likely on the waiver wire in most leagues. If he sits out […]
Corey Davis Sees 10 Targets In Week 9
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis caught six of his 10 targets in Week 9 for just 56 yards. Davis continues to see very bankable volume in the Titans offense, but his production is still lingering. Davis will continue to operate as the number one option in the passing game for quarterback Marcus Mariota, who […]
Derrick Henry Salvages Performance With Touchdown
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry found the end zone for the second straight week in the team's Monday Night Football win over the Dallas Cowboys. However, unfortunately for Henry owners, he saw a whopping 15 fewer touches than Dion Lewis. Lewis has taken a firm hold of the starting running back slot in Tennessee […]
Dion Lewis Acts As Centerpiece Against Dallas
Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis had another great game in Week 9 against the Dallas Cowboys. Lewis rushed 19 times for 62 yards and caught an additional four passes for 60 yards and a score. Lewis saw 23 total touches, his season high, as opposed to only eight touches for Derrick Henry. This timeshare […]
Marcus Mariota Totals 273 Yards And Three Touchdowns In Dallas
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota shined bright in Dallas on Monday Night Football, going 21-for-29 for 240 yards and two touchdowns through the air while adding 32 yards and a score on the ground. This was one of Mariota's most complete performances on the season, and he showed great poise after the offense coughed up […]
Jack Conklin In Concussion Protocol
Tennessee Titans right tackle Jack Conklin (concussion) is in the league's concussion protocol after suffering a head injury on Monday night in the win over the Cowboys. Conklin is one of the league's best right tackles, so it'd be a downgrade for quarterback Marcus Mariota and the Titans running game against the Patriots in Week […]
Tajae Sharpe Expected To Be Fine For Week 10
Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said wide receiver Tajae Sharpe tweaked something in pre-game warmups on Monday night but was close to 100 percent and should be fine for Week 10 against the Patriots. Sharpe caught his only target for no gain in the win over the Cowboys and has 17 catches on 25 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Taywan Taylor Questionable To Return Monday
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Taywan Taylor (foot) left the game early on Monday night against the Cowboys and is questionable to return. Taylor was able to walk off the field on his own, but he looked to be in a considerable amount of pain before leaving. He had caught both of his targets for 24 […]
Chris Johnson Announces Retirement
Free-agent running back Chris Johnson announced his retirement from football on his Instagram page on Monday. The 33-year-old was holding out hope to land with a team this year, but it never happened. Johnson earned the nickname CJ2K after rushing for 2,006 yards on the ground with the Titans in 2009, his second year in […]
Week 9 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchup Analysis
As bad as the Tennessee Titans (3-4) have been, they're currently second in the AFC South - sitting just one loss behind the division-leading Houston Texans. As bad as the Dallas Cowboys (3-4) have been, they're currently third in the NFC East - sitting just two losses behind the division-leading Washington Redskins... As bad as […]

Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 9 Fantasy Football Picks
It's time to forget what you thought you knew. Halfway through the year, NFL teams now have a good idea whether they are contenders or simply playing for next year's draft picks. The trade deadline has passed, shaking up depth charts across the league. That means it is also time to throw that "draft stock" […]
Week 9 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions
It is a really tough week with six teams on a bye. Fantasy rosters will be stretched and owners will be desperately looking for options who can give them solid production. It may not be the most amazing upside in the world but when every team is hurting a solid six or seven points from […]
