NFL DFS Prop Picks for 9/15/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

The natural inclination after Week One of the NFL season is to react to the on-field information that was presented by the first games of the season. The challenge for statistical evaluation is that one game is a small sample any way you slice it. For example, how much weight to you put to the […]

Week 2 DFS GPP Value Plays For FanDuel And DraftKings

Week 1 in the NFL brought a few surprises to fantasy owners, especially those in DFS. Players like Marquise Brown and Sammy Watkins were low-owned options but turned out to be tournament winners for some. In a week in which we thought that the upper echelon players in the league would come out ready to […]

Derrius Guice Put On Injured Reserve

The Washington Redskins placed running back Derrius Guice (knee) on the Injured Reserve on Friday, according to a source. Guice had surgery to fix a torn meniscus in his knee on Thursday and will be out for the next six to eight weeks. He has a chance of returning later this season, but he can […]

Jordan Reed Won't Play Against Cowboys

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 2 against the Cowboys. Reed missed practice on Friday and will miss his second straight game to begin the season. At this point, it's almost hard to justify keeping Reed on your roster, as he'll be an injury risk of a TE2 […]

Less Optimism That Jordan Reed Plays In Week 2

There is now less optimism that Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) will play in Week 2 against the Cowboys, according to a source. What else is new? Reed has been the walking wounded in his career and has yet to play in 2019. He's always been an intriguing fantasy option when on the […]

Redskins Defense Ready To Get Bulldozed By Cowboys

The Washington Redskins Defense will have home-field advantage on Sunday, but that is where this unit's leg up on the Cowboys begins and ends. Washington's front seven are staring down one of the better offensive lines in football, and Dallas has an abundance of weapons to turn to. Dak Prescott was one of the more […]

Trey Quinn Not Ready For Fantasy Consideration

Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn could theoretically be in line for some lucrative PPR work on Sunday against the Cowboys. If the Dallas pass rush is able to wreak havoc in the pocket against a questionable Redskins offensive line, Case Keenum might be forced to look for Quinn in the intermediate passing game often. […]

Terry McLaurin Not Yet A Fantasy Starter

Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin will look to repeat an impressive Week 1 performance in which he racked up 125 yards and a touchdown on five receptions. While McLaurin is the most exciting wideout in Washington at the moment, this pass offense is still collectively an unknown quantity. The Redskins aired it out considerably […]

Paul Richardson Not On Fantasy Radar For Week 2

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson returned minimal fantasy value in Week 1 despite being targeted seven times. We're going to have to learn as we go with the Redskins passing offense in terms of who Case Keenum looks to the most often, and part of that learning process includes not trusting anyone until there […]

Vernon Davis With Favorable Matchup In Week 2

Washington Redskins tight end Vernon Davis will be in line for the bulk of the tight end work on Sunday if Jordan Reed isn't able to play. If such is the case, Davis has the chance to pick up where Evan Engram left off in Week 1, when the latter torched the Cowboys Defense for […]

Chris Thompson A Flex Consideration For Week 2

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson figures to see a lot of action in his Week 2 matchup with the Cowboys. Washington is a home underdog in a divisional matchup, which tells us a lot about how the Redskins are viewed even after almost stealing one from the Eagles to start the season. If the […]

Case Keenum An Unsafe Bet For Week 2

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum is coming off an impressive Week 1 outing, but a repeat against the Cowboys would be surprising. For starters, there is the obvious disadvantage of playing behind an offensive line that will be hard-pressed to stop Demarcus Lawrence on the pass rush. His receivers are also going to have to […]

Jordan Reed Has A Chance To Return In Week 2

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) is practicing again on Thursday, and there is more optimism this week that he will play on Sunday against the Cowboys. Reed continues to deal with injuries and missed the season-opening loss against the Eagles. Vernon Davis stepped in and delivered a touchdown with Reed inactive. Reed remains […]

Derrius Guice Undergoes Surgery Thursday

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice (knee) underwent surgery to trim a torn meniscus on Thursday, according to sources. Guice is now out indefinitely and is expected to miss the next six to eight weeks. The second-year back missed all of his rookie season with a torn ACL to his other knee. If you don't […]

We made it! We wagered through a long and tedious preseason but real football hit us in the forehead for the first time this season during the past few days and change. But just as soon as it came, it went. The first week of the season is over and we have some tasty numbers […]

Derrius Guice Could Undergo Surgery

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice (knee) is expected to get a second opinion on his injury. In the event that the sophomore would have to undergo surgery, Guice could miss up to six to eight weeks. Guice was able to suit up for the first time in the team's loss against the Philadelphia Eagles, […]

Jordan Reed Remains In Concussion Protocol

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed remains in the concussion protocol. The perennially injured Reed missed Week 1 and doesn't look to be on track to returning anytime soon. The veteran Vernon Davis filled in for Reed in the season opener and finished with four receptions for 59 yards and a touchdown in the loss […]

Under-The-Radar Booms and Busts: Week 2

One week down, 16 more to go! I am currently basking in the glow of my under-the-radar boom picks of New England’s Phillip Dorsett and Buffalo’s John Brown from last week’s column, while trying to forget that I also told the world that New York Jets receiver/ghost Quincy Enunwa would go bonkers against the Bills. […]

Adrian Peterson To Start Against Cowboys

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said on Wednesday that running back Adrian Peterson will get the start in Week 2 against the Cowboys with Derrius Guice (knee) expected to miss a few weeks. Peterson was a healthy inactive in Week 1, but Washington will ride the future Hall of Famer until Guice is healthy […]
