Top 10 Fantasy Football Lineup Busts - Week 5

Some anecdotes from my home league that illustrate some thought processes about a few of last week's bust picks: Two weeks ago, two teams in my league made a trade: Dez Bryant for Amari Cooper. This was before Cooper stopped existing the past two weeks and I was, at the time, surprised someone would give up […]

If you play in as many leagues as I do, chances are at least one of your teams was ravaged by injuries in Week 4.

Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

There were many complaints about the lack of waiver-wire options at the end of Week 3, and this just goes to show that you need to be careful what you wish for. In a week that began with Ty Montgomery scaring us all with a rib injury and Davante Adams nearly getting Sleepy Hollow'd, we’d […]

Now that we have three games under wraps for the 2017 season, we can get a sense of how players are being utilized by their respective teams. While snap counts and targets are a great start, we need to dig deeper to find great values at the skill positions. Just like targets are the lifeblood […]

Top 10 Fantasy Football Lineup Busts - Week 4

We're about to reach the quarter-mark of the 2017 NFL season and the fantasy football picture still feels unsettled. For example: is Jordan Howard going to live up to his ADP? Uhh, maybe!

Fantasy Pop Quiz - NFL Week 3

There are two types of football articles; those based in analytics, and those based in opinion.
