Waiver Wire Rankings for Week 6

It's injury and drama-filled week of waiver wire action in fantasy football leagues. We always receive a lot of questions of which players to add off the waiver wire, and who to let go of, but are expecting an uptick this week. As of last week, we thought it would be a good idea to publish […]

What’s Your Record? Winning Strategies for Week 6

If you’re hanging with models and bottles while clocking in and out, you are out of your lane. And if you are holding on to David Johnson with a 2-3 record, yes you too are way out of your lane. Your roster construction should be reflective of your record throughout the season, period. To put […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 5 Fantasy Football Picks

Sometimes you just get that feeling... this week is going to be special. A typical NFL week can turn into a horror show when it's rife with injuries, or if the team you had stacked in multiple leagues gets upset at home... cough cough, Falcons, cough... But this is one of those weeks where each game […]

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 […]

Dynasty League Rookie Round Up - Week 5

In this series, I'll continue to look at rookies from a dynasty fantasy football league perspective. Last week, I highlighted some under the radar names you should be aware of. This time around I'll switch gears a little bit and talk about some of the outstanding -- and surprising -- rookie performances thus far this […]

Week 5 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

Now things get interesting. We have some high-profile offenses taking the week off and it seems like all the matchups this week are all or nothing. There could be upwards of 60 points on the board in the Pats-Bucs, Packers-Cowboys, and Chiefs-Texans games. Then there are the games that you only watch when Red Zone […]

Target Risers and Possible Breakouts for Week 5

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. Dalvin Cook, Chris Carson, Marcus Mariota, Derek Carr, Julio Jones, Rob Kelley, and Jordan Matthews all exited their team’s games early, and in some cases, won’t return this season. We […]

Week 5 Daily Fantasy Football Tournament Stacks

We get so spoiled by the first four weeks of the NFL season, don't we? All 32 teams playing over the course four days each week. It's glorious. Alas, bye weeks are inevitable, and they've finally arrived as planned for the 2017 (Miami and Tampa Bay didn't exactly plan on their Week 1 byes). This […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates For Week 5

Heading into Week 5, fantasy football owners should be ready to wheel and deal. We are now a month into the NFL season.

Waiver Wire Rankings for Week 5

It's an especially interesting and busy fantasy football week for the waiver wire. We've received a lot of questions of which players to add off the waiver wire, and who to let go of. We thought it would be a good idea to publish our list of Week 5 waiver wire rankings. This is our […]

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 […]

Tight Ends Waiver Wire - Week 5 Pickups and Adds

While there were plenty of movers and shakers on the fantasy scene, the tight end position didn't see as much volatility.

So here we are, feverishly looking to analyze statistics and projections to […]

Week 5 Do Not Drop List - Don't Panic Yet

As we approach Week 5, the Broncos, Falcons, Redskins, and Saints are our first round of teams with a bye week in 2017. Fantasy owners with more than one or two players taking the week off, and/or fantasy owners in shallower leagues are, no doubt, going to have to make some very difficult add/drop decisions. […]

Week 4 Dynasty Matchup Analysis

You probably have found enough articles that explain what to watch for each week. For the dynasty community however, we look at each week a little differently.

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 4 Fantasy Football Picks

Last week went much better, as the players who are supposed to be stars actually played like it, even some that we didn't expect to. As predicted in this column, Kirk Cousins went bananas, as did Kareem Hunt and A.J. Green. James White... not so much (that's what I get for trying to trust a […]

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! Were Brandin Cooks' first two weeks of usage a fluke and this is what we get moving foward? Hmm, I don't know! […]

Week 4 Dynasty Mailbag

Up is down, down is up, white is black and black is white. That’s how a lot of fantasy football owners are feeling after Week 3. Luckily for those that play dynasty, they realize they are in it for the long haul and are only getting shortness of breath each week instead of living and […]

Week 4 Do Not Drop List - Don't Panic Yet

It would be incorrect to say that fantasy football rewards patience without also noting that fantasy football just as often rewards haste. A successful fantasy owner is always looking for ways to improve his/her roster even while his/her team is winning handily. If you don’t pick up Week 3’s breakout player, your Week 4 opponent […]

Fantasy Football Risers & Fallers - Week 4

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis.

NFL Survivor League Picks (Week 4): Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids

Week 3 was the week of the dogs. Eight of nine underdogs in the early games covered the spread and six of those teams won outright (not including Vikes because it went off as pick 'em). In total, the underdogs went 11-4. That's absurd. Vegas probably made a killing. The public's two favorite teams did not […]

Live And Learn - Reflecting on my DraftKings NFL Cash Game Lineups From Weeks 1-3

Hey RotoBallers! I hope you're all surviving yet another Tuesday-Wednesday without football to consume. I also hope your NFL DFS ventures have been more successful than mine so far. I've been playing NFL DFS on DraftKings once again this season, and through the first three weeks I feel as though I'm going backwards. So, I […]

Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

It turns out that the unlikely Thursday night shootout between the Rams and 49ers was just a sign of things to come, as Week 3 opened with an odd 44-7 shellacking of the Ravens by the Jaguars in London. No, you’re not chasing Marcedes Lewis, but it’s nice to see Blake Bortles alive, eh? Seattle […]
