We're lucky enough to have a divisional matchup coming up […]

Alexander Mattison Will Serve As The Backup, Not Worth Starting In Fantasy

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) practiced fully three days in a row leading up to his team's Week 15 game against the Atlanta Falcons. He will be the backup to lead RB Sincere McCormick, so he's probably not worth starting. He's averaged just 3.3 yards per carry so far this year, and […]

Daniel Carlson A Deep-League Option In Week 15

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson made two short field goals and an extra point attempt in Week 14 after a terrible day in Week 13 that saw him miss three long field goals. He's an accurate kicker below those long distances, but the misses lower his value ahead of a Week 15 matchup with […]

Raiders D/ST Not Worth Starting Without Maxx Crosby

The Las Vegas Raiders D/ST is not worth starting in Week 15, nor have they been all season. They're the No. 31 rated defense on Sleeper, and outside of extremely deep or exotic leagues, there's no reason to put them in starting lineups for Monday, when they face the Atlanta Falcons. There are better options […]

Sincere McCormick Will Be The Guy In The Raiders Backfield This Week

Las Vegas Raiders running back Sincere McCormick, who took the starting job from RB Alexander Mattison (ankle), who took Zamir White's (quad) starting job, who took over for Josh Jacobs, who left for greener fields (literally), is the guy you want to start in Week 15. McCormick. He's the guy. He's a lot more explosive […]

Tre Tucker A Flex Option In Very Deep Leagues For Week 15

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker logged just seven receiving yards on two receptions in Week 14. His usage wasn't horrible, as he was targeted five times, but he's struggled with consistency all season.

Jakobi Meyers A Solid WR2 Despite Quarterback Uncertainty In Week 15

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers logged a full practice on Saturday as expected, and he carries no injury designation heading into Monday night's game with the Atlanta Falcons.

Brock Bowers Should Be Started No Matter Who Plays At QB For Raiders

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers is set to continue his historic season when his team takes on the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. It's the first round of the fantasy playoffs for most leagues, and there's no one better to put in your TE spot than the rookie sensation. He's logged a ridiculous […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 15? Tank Dell, Josh Downs, Quentin Johnston

Here at RotoBaller, we love receivers who have good games seemingly randomly.

There's no better time to have them than in the fantasy playoffs! That was sarcastic, but you can […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 15? Isiah Pacheco, Brian Robinson Jr., Chuba Hubbard

Running back is the scarcest position in fantasy football. It's difficult to have a roster loaded with multiple starting options at this position in most leagues.

The wide receiver is an important position in PPR fantasy football leagues.
