FAAB Bidding - Week 7 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 […]

We Must Overreact Immediately! Week 6 Outliers

In Week 6, several players exploded in fantasy lineups. There were a few receivers that were above the rest of the pack in Week 6, such as Stefon Diggs, Terry McLaurin, Chris Godwin and Tyreek Hill, but there shouldn't be any surprises there as those guys should have been in fantasy lineups. At the quarterback […]

Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

All of a sudden, the Chargers look like one of the worst teams in football and the Jets look like a playoff contender. Maybe things won't shake out that way in the end but it goes to show how quickly things change in the "Not For Long" NFL. For that reason, we advise looking at […]

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 7)

This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7

Some of you have been rewarded for your meticulous roster planning by receiving excellent production from your running backs. Unfortunately, many of you have been equally prepared when making roster decisions, but have been undermined by injuries, inconsistent usage, or underwhelming performances. If that applies to you, then those unwanted outcomes have forced you to […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers – Week 7

Another week, another four teams on bye in the NFL. Fantasy football players are going to have to make due this week without Carolina’s Greg Olsen, Tampa Bay’s O.J. Howard and Pittsburgh’s Vance McDonald, not to mention Seattle’s Will Dissly, who was injured this past Sunday. It could be a worse week for fantasy players […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 7 Lightning Round

The Jets are back! OK, maybe not back because they were never here but at least there's some actual hope and fantasy value to be had from a previously winless team. The tight end landscape has changed drastically again, as Hunter Henry returns right at 60% ownership, while breakout second-year Seahawk Will Dissly's season appears […]

Trey Quinn Invisible Yet Again In Week 6

Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn saw just four targets in Sunday's win over the Dolphins, collecting two of them for a total of eight yards. This was the third consecutive game in which Quinn was targeted only four times, and also the third straight contest in which he failed to break 20 yards receiving. […]

Redskins Defense Holds On In Road Win

The Washington Redskins Defense finally played winning football for most of Week 6, albeit against the lowly Miami Dolphins. The Redskins picked off Josh Rosen twice and sacked him five times. Washington didn't allow Miami any momentum on offense until Ryan Fitzpatrick took over at QB in the fourth quarter. If not for a failed […]

Jeremy Sprinkle Not Thriving As Starter

Washington Redskins tight end Jeremy Sprinkle turned in another disappointing day despite standing in for injured Vernon Davis and Jordan Reed. Sprinkle saw just three targets in Sunday's victory, grabbing two of them for 24 yards. At this point, it doesn't appear to matter when or if Davis or Reed come back, because Sprinkle isn't […]

Paul Richardson Catches Zero Passes In Week 6

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson was targeted four times on Sunday, hauling in zero of them. This would qualify as a huge disappointment in a favorable matchup if Richardson had done anything of consequence in recent weeks, but he had only caught five passes for 28 yards in his last two games combined. He […]

Chris Thompson Sees Just Five Touches In Win

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson touched the ball a season-low five times for 20 total yards on Sunday. Washington's success on the ground with Adrian Peterson minimized the need to turn to Thompson as often as usual in the passing game, and he naturally turned in his worst fantasy outing of the season. For […]

Terry McLaurin Continues Breakout Rookie Campaign

Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught two touchdowns in Miami on Sunday, and those scores just happened to make the difference in his team's first victory of the season. McLaurin has now caught a touchdown in all four games in which both he and Case Keenum have played. His final line for the day […]

Adrian Peterson Finally Has A Day Against Dolphins

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson carried the ball 23 times for 118 yards in Sunday's win over the Dolphins. He was unable to cap off his performance with a touchdown, but his fantasy owners will take it after the veteran failed to reach even 30 yards on the ground in three of his previous […]

Case Keenum Plays Well Enough To Win In Miami

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum didn't have his best statistical performance on Sunday, completing just over 50% of his 25 pass attempts for 166 yards. What mattered more than any of that was the two touchdowns he threw to help the Redskins earn their first win of the 2019 season over the Dolphins. Keenum found […]

Extracting Fantasy Value from Winless Teams

It's typically a good rule of thumb to invest in good offenses when playing fantasy football. After all, good offenses score points and points are kind of what makes this whole fantasy football train roll down the tracks. But that doesn't mean all bad offenses deserve to be quarantined from fantasy owners' rosters. Let's take […]
