Emanuel Wilson - Waiver Wire Graphic Template

Emanuel Wilson - Breakout or Fakeout?

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson had a huge day in Week 4. Though he's been a career backup, with the Green Bay Packers for a few years and this year with his new team, he was the fifth-highest-scoring running back in fantasy football after his huge game. 27.0 PPR fantasy points is nothing to […]


Zach Charbonnet - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL DFS Picks

Is Zach Charbonnet Starting When He Returns?

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee), a key contributor for his team during their 2025 Super Bowl run, tore his ACL in the playoffs last season and required season-ending surgery to correct the issue. He remained heavily involved on offense last season, sharing the backfield with RB Kenneth Walker III. Walker is now dominating […]


Jonah Coleman - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Rankings

Is Jonah Coleman Starting When He Returns?

Denver Broncos running back Jonah Coleman (ankle) carried the ball 10 times for 48 yards, scored a rushing touchdown, and caught all three of his targets for 19 yards in the only game he played significant action in this season, Week 2. Unfortunately, he injured his ankle in that game and was subsequently placed on […]


De'Zhaun Stribling - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Is De’Zhaun Stribling Out for the Season?

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle) suffered a major ankle injury in his team's Week 1 contest with the Los Angeles Rams. His young career got off to a miserable start, unfortunately, as he didn't log a single reception before going down with the ailment. The rookie was considered a major reach by […]


Jadarian Price - Fantasy Football Rankings, Rookie Rankings

When is Jadarian Price Coming Back?

Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price (chest) was a first-round draft pick who was selected to play on a good offense on a well-coached team. Things were looking up for the rookie, who showed flashes on film in limited action in his first two games as a pro. But injuries are inevitable in the NFL, […]


A.J. Brown - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

When is A.J. Brown Coming Back?

New England Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown (ankle) was set to be a dominant target-earner and clear No. 1 receiver for his new team after signing a huge contract with them in the offseason. But the endless injury carousel had other plans. Brown suffered a high-ankle sprain when he was tackled by a defender while […]


Alec Pierce - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL DFS Lineup Picks

When is Alec Pierce Coming Back?

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce (heel) was a big question mark heading into the 2026 season. And it wasn't due to his performance in 2025. He led the league in yards per reception in 2025 among qualifying receivers, with over 21.3 yards per reception. His stat line of 47 catches for 1,003 yards and […]


Khalil Shakir - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL DFS Picks

Should I Pickup Keon Coleman or Khalil Shakir

The Buffalo Bills traded their second round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft to the Chicago Bears in exchange for wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) and a fifth round pick in this past offseason. In Week 1, Moore immediately broke out with five catches on eight targets for 100 yards and a touchdown. Unfortunately, he […]


Jalen Coker - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

When is Jalen Coker Coming Back?

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker (quadriceps) wasn't able to play in his team's upset Week 4 win over the Detroit Lions. In his absence, we saw second-year pro and first-round draft pick WR Tetairoa McMillan have a dominant game, catching 14 of 16 targets for 192 yards and two touchdowns. McMillan fumbled once, but […]


Travis Etienne - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL DFS Lineup Picks

When is Travis Etienne Jr. Coming Back?

New Orleans Saints running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) wasn't very involved in the Saints' offense in his first few games with his new team. It was a strange development, considering they opened the vaults to sign him to a four-year, $48 million contract to join the team. Etienne had a resurgent season as the […]


Dontayvion Wicks - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Should I Drop Dontayvion Wicks?

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks looked like he was in prime position to have a great game against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 4. Injuries to the Eagles' top wide receiver and tight end, DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dallas Goedert (knee), had caused them both to be ruled out for that contest. Thusly, […]


Tyreek Hill - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Should I Pickup Tyreek Hill or Joe Mixon

It's finally that time of year when we see interesting veteran players who have some tread left on their tires but weren't on a team to start the season signing with new teams. In recent days, the most interesting veterans in this vein have been running back Joe Mixon and the still unsigned wide receiver […]


Breece Hall - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

When is Breece Hall Coming Back?

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quadriceps) tore his ACL in his seventh game as a pro in his rookie season and was ruled out for the rest of that year. After a blazingly hot start to his time as a pro, he unfortunately had to deal with the struggle of seeing his career […]


Blake Corum - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Should I Drop Blake Corum?

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum was a popular pick as a backup RB who could potentially take on a more prominent role in his offense this season. There were numerous games in 2025 where it looked like the Michigan product was carving out a larger slice of the running back touch pie. Week […]


TreVeyon Henderson - Fantasy Football Rookie Rankings, RB Draft Sleepers

Should I Drop TreVeyon Henderson?

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson once again had a disgusting final stat line in an NFL game for fantasy football. He rushed 14 times for 42 yards and didn't catch either of his two targets, finishing his day with just 4.2 PPR fantasy points. Meanwhile, Patriots starting running back Rhamondre Stevenson produced like […]


Courtland Sutton - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Should I Drop Courtland Sutton?

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton hasn't had a great start to his 2026 season. While he was previously the unquestioned WR1 of his offense, the emergence of younger players and the signing of a quality veteran wideout have crushed his upside. Through four games, Sutton, despite being healthy for all contests, is just the […]


MarShawn Lloyd - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Should I Drop MarShawn Lloyd?

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd missed nearly all of the first two seasons of his career with various injuries. It was incredibly difficult for him to get on the field, and he dealt with major ailments such as appendicitis and a severe hamstring injury. It was an unfortunate start to his career. But […]


Jadarian Price - Fantasy Football Rankings, Rookie Rankings

Should I Drop Jadarian Price?

Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price (chest) is set to miss at least four games due to a chest injury he suffered in Week 3. He was placed on injured reserve Saturday with a designation to return, meaning he won't be eligible to play again until Week 8 at the earliest. Price struggled in his […]


Jordyn Tyson - College Football DFS Picks, NCAA CFB Rankings

Should I Drop Jordyn Tyson?

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) continues to rehabilitate the hamstring injury he suffered in training camp this offseason. It's been a tough start to a promising young NFL career to see his hamstring injuries from college recur yet again.  It's the second documented major re-aggravation of a hamstring ailment that's been bothering […]


Keon Coleman - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL DFS Picks

Top WRs to Add - Week 5 Waiver Wire

The Buffalo Bills, Tennessee Titans, and Chicago Bears always seem to have a lot of ambiguity in their pass-catching rooms, as there is rarely a dominant wideout who emerges as the clear No. 1 option and remains that way for a full season. For these three teams, that hasn't happened since the days of Stefon […]


Makai Lemon - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Top WRs to Add - Week 5 Waiver Wire

We've seen multiple instances of rookie wide receivers going from unproductive early in the season to being must-starts across all fantasy leagues toward the middle part of the year. This happened recently, in 2024, with Los Angeles Chargers wideout Ladd McConkey and Jacksonville Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. It's not a great idea to lean […]


Kaelon Black- Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Top RBs to Add - Week 5 Waiver Wire

The pick-up-high-upside-backup-running-backs-in-good-offenses strategy in fantasy football is one of the best ways of securing a lottery ticket that could pay off in the long run. RB is such a scarce position in fantasy football -- it's incredibly difficult to find productive RBs on the waiver wire at any point in the season. The one exception […]


Will Shipley - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Top RBs to Add - Week 5 Waiver Wire

It seemed like we'd see another year in which the majority of starting NFL running backs were healthy for the majority of the season. But in recent weeks, a handful of key injuries have reshaped that idea. The Seattle Seahawks, Philadelphia Eagles, and Miami Dolphins will all see big shake-ups in how their backfield carries […]


Makai Lemon - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Should I Pickup D. Wicks or Makai Lemon

The Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 4 for the first time in the Sean McVay era. It's not a huge surprise they weren't able to come out with a win, though, as they were missing their top-2 targets this season and their No. 1 wideout from a year ago. Wide […]


Kaleb Johnson - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Top RBs to Add - Week 5 Waiver Wire

The Green Bay Packers narrowly beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to move to 2-2 for the 2026 NFL season. With running back Josh Jacobs still on the NFL Commissioner's Exempt List and mired in a legal situation of his own doing, the Packers have looked to their backup running backs to carry the load on […]

5 Injured Players To Stash

It's never a good thing when a player gets injured in the NFL. In fantasy football, it often means managers lose key pieces of their rosters that were expected to help them make the playoffs and potentially win a championship. We never celebrate injuries, but they're an unavoidable part of a brutal game. Injuries can […]


Tucker Kraft - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Buy Lows? Unlucky Star Players (Week 4)

Unlike the Week 3 Bold Predictions article written by yours truly, the previous edition of the Fantasy Football Buy-Low recommendation piece had two big hits -- Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London and Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams. Both of them still had pretty solid values heading into Week 3, but there was at […]


Jacoby Brissett - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Rankings, QB Streamers, NFL DFS Picks

Waiver Wire Stashes and Streamers: Weeks 5-8

The players you snag on waivers early in the season can often be the difference between your team making and missing the playoffs. Even if you're 3-0 right now and have an excellent team, you don't want to fall behind because you slept on some waiver pickups. Injuries to star players can happen at any […]


Ladd McConkey - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Buy/Sell Patriots, Bucs, Chargers Players?

The New England Patriots, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Los Angeles Chargers were three teams with multiple players who were heavily drafted in the early and middle rounds of fantasy football drafts in 2026. Unfortunately, so far, nearly all of them have been disappointing. Each offense has struggled far more than expected, even after seemingly being […]

2027 Dynasty Rooke Mock Draft

We're not yet through with the Week 4 slate of games in the 2026 NFL season, but thanks to college football games happening at the same time, hype is building for the 2027 NFL Draft class, especially for those players who will be widely drafted in dynasty fantasy football leagues. The 2026 class wasn't as […]
