Should I Pickup Demarcus Robinson or Tyler Johnson? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

Los Angeles Rams wide receivers Demarcus Robinson and Tyler Johnson are primed for larger roles in the offense after the injury to fellow receiver Puka Nacua.

Matthew Stafford - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2 ANALYSIS: Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is a good real-life quarterback, but that doesn't always translate to fantasy scoring.

Zamir White Could Need Positive Game Script To Outproduce Alexander Mattison

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White will need a positive game-script against the Ravens to outproduce his backfield mate Alexander Mattison in Week 2. Mattison is the passing-down back, and in losing games where the Raiders are forced to pass more, he should take the lead. That happened in Week 1, with White only […]

Gardner Minshew II Needs To Limit Mistakes, Risky Play For Week 2

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew II needs to limit costly mistakes, like fumbles and interceptions, if he wants a victory over the Baltimore Ravens in their Week 2 matchup.

Jakobi Meyers Risky Flex Play Against The Ravens

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is a risky flex play in a tough matchup against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2.

Rhamondre Stevenson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: Borderline RB1 ANALYSIS: New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson signed a massive contract this offseason and looked to be worth every penny in his 2024 debut.

BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 ANALYSIS: While Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams could be heading for another disappointing season, his managers don't have much choice but to start him.

BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/Flex ANALYSIS: Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had a solid 2023 followed by a disappointing start to the 2024 season.
