All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

There are plenty of injuries in Week 13, with the most significant potential for value coming at […]

Week 13 and Playoff Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

This is your last shot at the playoffs--don't miss out because you neglected something as important as your DST! That's only half-sarcastic. Below are RotoBaller's Week 13 defense tiers and rankings, or which defenses to stream, start and target off the waiver wire for Week 13 of the NFL and fantasy football season. In case you […]

Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Bye weeks are finally over and by now you likely know if you are a contender, a pretender or a bubble team in your fantasy leagues. At this point in the season, you can still benefit from the waiver wire though, whether you're looking for an injury replacement, high-upside flex play, or smart stash for […]

FAAB Bidding - Week 13 Waiver Wire Targets

Assisting our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, this column focuses on 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 these free agent players will […]

Redskins Defense Not Poised For Success In Week 13

The Washington Redskins Defense may be garnering some attention on the waiver wire for Week 13 after forcing four turnovers and scoring a special teams touchdown last week against the Lions. The Redskins also recorded six sacks to round out what was an impressive fantasy day. While Washington has been a half-decent real-life defense (all […]

Paul Richardson An Afterthought Even If Active

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson is listed as questionable with a hamstring injury after departing from last week's game against the Lions. Even in the event of a late-week turnaround, Richardson should be left far away from all fantasy lineups for Week 13. In the last three games he's played, he's caught just eight […]

Kelvin Harmon A Long Shot For Week 13

Washington Redskins wide receiver Kelvin Harmon is trending in the right direction after hauling in eight of 12 targets in his last two games. In Week 13, he'll face a Panthers team that has allowed WRs to catch more passes than any other defense in the league. While it may be tempting to look favorably […]

Terry McLaurin With PPR Upside Against Panthers

Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin gets to face a Panthers Defense allowing the most receptions per game to his position of any team in the league. In theory, McLaurin should be set up for a nice PPR outing in this matchup. The downside is that he'll have Dwayne Haskins throwing him the ball, which […]

Dwayne Haskins Not Worth The Risk In Week 13

Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins has done nothing to earn the trust of fantasy owners, and a matchup with Carolina on Sunday doesn't lend itself to any uptick in optimism. Haskins has committed five more turnovers than he's thrown touchdown passes, and has been held completely scoreless in two of his three starts. The Panthers […]

Derrius Guice Has Week 13 Upside If Volume Is There

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice is the high-ceiling option in a frustrating backfield split with Adrian Peterson. Guice has taken a relative back seat to Peterson since returning from injury two weeks ago, but his youth and explosiveness make him the more likely candidate to go off despite a limited touch count. The Redskins […]

Adrian Peterson A Risky Play Despite Favorable Matchup

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson figures to split touches with Derrius Guice again in Week 13, which naturally limits his fantasy value in an otherwise great matchup against the Panthers. Carolina is allowing nearly five yards per carry to opposing backs, and no team has permitted more rushing touchdowns. Unfortunately for his fantasy owners, […]

Josh Norman Won't Start Against Panthers

Washington Redskins interim head coach Bill Callahan said that cornerback Josh Norman will not start in Week 13 against the Panthers, but he will play in the game. Norman, 31, is starting to show his age in 2019 for a bad Redskins Defense. He has 40 total tackles, one sack, one forced fumble and one […]

Paul Richardson Not Practicing Wednesday

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson (hamstring) is not practicing on Wednesday. Richardson has only 28 receptions for 245 yards and two touchdowns on the season and has hauled in eight passes in the last three games. Even if he's active, you shouldn't be trusting him in your starting lineups, even in deeper setups. Outside […]

Dynasty Quarterbacks: 2020 Rookie Class Preview

With the injury suffered by Tua Tagovailoa in Alabama's recent game against Mississippi, it feels like a good time to evaluate the top tier of college quarterbacks who are preparing to enter the NFL. While one or two of these players may not declare, it's more likely the injury to Tua nudges more of them -- […]

Thanksgiving Thursday Matchups Analysis - Week 13 Starts/Sits

Happy Thanksgiving to all! Deshaun Watson and his motley crew of pass catchers helped to propel the Texans to an AFC South-leading 7-6 record after pulling out a victory over the Indianapolis Colts last Thursday. DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller combined for over 200 receiving yards and two scores in the win. On the other […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 13

With Week 12 mostly in the books, bye weeks are finally behind us, and the need for quarterback fill-ins should taper off significantly. That means less competition on waivers for those of us who prefer to stream quarterbacks, which is great news because we've got some exciting options this week that should be easy to […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 13

We have now arrived at Week 13, which places us at the threshold of the fantasy playoffs. The unwanted process of bye weeks has been eviscerated until next season. However, if you own Ezekiel Elliott, Alvin Kamara, Latavius Murray, David Montgomery, Tarik Cohen, Devin Singletary, or Bo Scarbrough, here is a reminder that they will be performing […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 13

Week 13 is upon us, and for many of us that means the last chance to make it into the playoffs is upon us. For others who play in leagues with multi-week playoff matchups, the postseason is here. Whatever situation you're in, it's an important time for fantasy owners. The importance of the waiver wire […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 13 Lightning Round

Week 13 approaches, which signifies the final "regular season" game for most of your leagues and no more bye weeks. Those lining up for a first-round bye should start eyeing Week 15 matchups, but don't forget to seal the deal. To help you look towards those precious playoff weeks, here is the waiver wire lightning […]

Redskins Defense Shows Up In Gritty, Low-Scoring Win

The Washington Redskins Defense played with admirable pride in a hard-fought 19-16 win over the Lions on Sunday. Detroit was playing without its franchise quarterback again, which means this performance must be viewed through the appropriate scope. Still, the Redskins' efforts held the Lions to one touchdown on the day and resulted in four Lions […]

Kelvin Harmon Steadily Carving Out A Role In Washington

Washington Redskins wide receiver Kelvin Harmon saw six passes thrown his way for the second straight week on Sunday. Only Terry McLaurin saw more opportunities, and every other Redskins pass-catcher was targeted two or fewer times. This small but noticeable development lends credence to the idea that Harmon may be establishing himself as something of […]

Terry McLaurin Sees 12 Targets In Win

Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin turned in a decent PPR day for Week 12, catching five passes for 72 yards in his team's win over Detroit. The frustrating part about his stat line is that it could've been more lucrative: McLaurin was targeted 12 times. Such are the ups and downs of having a […]

Derrius Guice Produces Pedestrian Numbers On Limited Work

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice continues to be eased into the offense, accounting for 11 touches and 38 total yards in Sunday's win over Detroit. He and Adrian Peterson appear set to continue cutting into each other's workloads, meaning touchdowns and big plays will likely be necessary in order for either player to return […]

Adrian Peterson's Value Plummeting In Backfield Split

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson is no longer the volume play he was before Derrius Guice returned from injury. For the second straight week, Peterson was limited to 11 touches with minimal production in Sunday's victory over the Lions. This is the new reality of Washington's backfield, as Guice will likely continue to cut […]

Dwayne Haskins Unimpressive In Win

Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins got his first career win on Sunday over the Lions, but his individual performance wasn't anything special from a fantasy perspective. Haskins completed under 50% of his passes for 156 yards, committed two turnovers, and didn't account for any touchdowns. He added 28 yards on the ground, which will likely […]

NFL DFS Cash Game Value Plays for FanDuel, DraftKings (Week 12)
