Time to Drop TreVeyon Henderson? Fantasy Football Week 8 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)
Sometimes, NFL teams simply do a poor job of scouting players. They spend premium draft picks on players that have clear flaws in their games, overlooking major red flags in their production profiles. The New England Patriots aren't a team known for drafting well, but it's not like most of the football community wasn't sold […]
Time to Drop Bhayshul Tuten? Fantasy Football Week 8 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)
The Jacksonville Jaguars were embarrassed by the Los Angeles Rams in Week 7. Quarterback Matthew Stafford and company came into Wembley Stadium in England to absolutely pummel the helpless big cats. Their RB2, Bhayshul Tuten, didn't have a great game. He only carried the ball five times for 22 yards and didn't get any receiving […]
Legit Breakouts or Flukes? Oronde Gadsden, Kyle Monangai, Xavier Legette Fantasy Football Outlooks
There are a lot of players who have big games seemingly out of nowhere in the course of a season. For players that aren't heavily rostered, though, it's essential to identify whether these games were indicative of breakouts or were fluke games. Sometimes, huge games out of nowhere are followed by more consistent and higher […]
Time to Drop Mike Evans? Fantasy Football Week 8 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (concussion, clavicle) suffered a major injury and was pulled from the game in his Week 7 loss to the Detroit Lions. Evans previously missed three contests with a hamstring injury, and over the last few years, he's dealt with several ailments that have caused him to miss plenty […]
Time to Drop Chris Godwin? Fantasy Football Week 8 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (fibula) has played in just two games this season and has failed to score double-digit PPR fantasy points in either. While he was on an absolute tear in 2024 before he suffered a season-ending injury, he has failed to make an impact this season and has missed over […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups - Bam Knight, Tyler Allgeier, Brian Robinson Fantasy Football Outlooks
Productive running backs in fantasy football are a dime a dozen, and all those that have starting jobs are drafted in fantasy drafts. For the most part, their direct backups are too. But there are still quite a few that aren't, and they make for good pickups in fantasy football off the waiver wire. However, […]
Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 8 (2025)
The NFL is hardly a static entity. Players sometimes have breakouts, sure, but their streaks of good games can come to a screeching halt almost instantly and without warning. And it's of great consequence to fantasy teams. Must-start studs that look like they're on pace to finish top-10 at their position can inexplicably see huge […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups - Chris Godwin, Kendrick Bourne, Tre Tucker Fantasy Football Outlooks
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (fibula), San Francisco 49ers wideout Kendrick Bourne, and Las Vegas Raiders WR Tre Tucker have all seen their production affected by injuries to them or their teammates. This time of year, that's a common trope for waiver pickups. Injuries are one of the most important factors for how […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups - Jaylin Noel, Xavier Hutchinson, Dalton Schultz Fantasy Football Outlooks
The Houston Texans got blasted in Week 7 by the Seattle Seahawks. Their passing offense has struggled massively this year, with quarterback C.J. Stroud playing poorly. Their offensive line is also arguably the NFL's worse, and their offense doesn't seem to have much direction right now. But that doesn't mean it's not worth picking up […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups - Sean Tucker, Devin Neal, Tyrone Tracy Fantasy Football Outlooks
Injuries at every position in fantasy football are major drivers of production for the players that remain healthy. This is especially true for running backs -- they can often go from scoring zero points to immediately start-worthy. New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (knee) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (foot) are both […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups - Tez Johnson, Woody Marks, Nick Chubb Fantasy Football Outlooks
The Houston Texans' top running backs, Nick Chubb and Woody Marks, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tez Johnson are all interesting waiver wire pickup targets ahead of Week 8. Each has had their moments this season, logging at least one game with double-digit PPR fantasy points. At this time in the season, injuries are […]
Time to Drop Jameson Williams? Fantasy Football Week 8 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)
There exists a class of player that is only useful in best ball. If you're not familiar with that, best ball is a fantasy football format in which your starting lineup is automatically determined at the end of each week by the optimal lineup. That means you want players who have boom games but don't […]
NFL Rookies: Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups and Stashes for Week 8
Rookie players have increasingly proven in recent years that they can be massively valuable contributors to fantasy football success. Both last season and the season before, there were multiple rookie league-winners in fantasy. This year is shaping up to be much the same. Luckily for fantasy managers who are paying attention to who they should […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups - Tyjae Spears, Kareem Hunt, Bhayshul Tuten Fantasy Football Outlooks
There isn't a wealth of good running back options to pick up on the waiver wire, but even after seven weeks, there often remain some good options with the potential to put up big production late in the season. An NFL season is not a sprint, but a marathon, and often players are overlooked until […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups - Brandon Aiyuk, Luke McCaffrey, Jalen Coker Fantasy Football Outlooks
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee), Washington Commanders wide receiver Luke McCaffrey, and Carolina Panthers wideout Jalen Coker are among quite a few players who are interesting targets for waiver pickups ahead of Week 8. Aiyuk hasn't played in a game yet this season. Coker just returned from a long absence due to […]
Rashee Rice, Ladd McConkey, Courtland Sutton: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 7
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice, Los Angeles Chargers wideout Ladd McConkey, and Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton are among this season's best fantasy assets. But nearly every player in fantasy is prone to having bust games. While Rice hasn't played in a game yet, both McConkey and Sutton have had single-digit outings in […]
Champ or Chump? Fantasy Outlooks for Wan'Dale Robinson, Kendrick Bourne, Kayshon Boutte
New York Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson, San Francisco 49ers wideout Kendrick Bourne, and New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte are all players who are considered to be right around the WR2/WR3 range in fantasy football this week. Each of them had a big game in Week 2 - all scored double-digit PPR fantasy points, […]
Jerry Jeudy, Rashid Shaheed, Marquise Brown: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 7
Cleveland Browns WR Jerry Jeudy, New Orleans Saints wideout Rashid Shaheed, and Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown have all had pretty solid games this season and are worth starting consideration for fantasy lineups in Week 7. That's actually a lie. Well, part of it is. Shaheed and Brown have had good games, but […]
Kenneth Walker, Alvin Kamara, Breece Hall: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 7
Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III, New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara (ankle), and New York Jets running back Breece Hall have all seen better days of production earlier in their careers. This season, for whatever reasons, all three are performing at levels well below how they did in their rookie campaigns. At least […]
Kendrick Bourne, Romeo Doubs, Jordan Addison: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 7
In recent weeks, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison, Green Bay Packers wideout Romeo Doubs, and San Francisco 49ers WR Kendrick Bourne have all had great games in their own right. All three have been far from consistent in this area, though -- dating back to last season, they all have plenty of single-digit PPR […]
Champ or Chump? Fantasy Outlooks for D'Andre Swift, Cam Skattebo, Bam Knight
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift, New York Giants RB Cam Skattebo, and Arizona Cardinals tailback Bam Knight will all be the starting RBs for their team's this Sunday. Swift has been the starter all season, so that's not much of a surprise, and Skattebo had a huge game in Week 6, so it's expected […]
Champ or Chump? Fantasy Outlooks for Tez Johnson, Kameron Johnson, Matthew Golden
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a pair of wide receivers a bit deeper on the depth chart than you'd expect to support fantasy relevance, Tez Johnson and Kameron Johnson, that many fantasy managers are considering starting as fill-ins for injured players and those on bye. Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden is a bit […]
Xavier Worthy, Jakobi Meyers, Jauan Jennings: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 7
It's fortunate that the wide receiver position typically has more players who are likely to have boom games on benches than happens for running backs. Teams often have four or five receivers who have stretches of startable fantasy production. Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy, San Francisco 49ers WR Jauan Jennings (ribs, ankle, shoulder), and […]
Jaylen Warren, Kenneth Gainwell, Tee Higgins: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 7
The Pittsburgh Steelers will face off against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday Night Football, and early start and sit decisions need to be made for fantasy managers. The Steelers have a pair of running backs, Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell, who might be interesting for fantasy managers to put into their lineups. And the Bengals […]
Time to Drop Bhayshul Tuten? Fantasy Football Week 7 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten was a fourth-round selection by his team in the 2025 NFL Draft, but through six games, he hasn't done much yet. He's the RB44 overall, having rushed 27 times for 108 yards and a touchdown and caught six of his eight targets for 59 yards and another score. But […]
Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups - Bhayshul Tuten, Brian Robinson Jr., Jaydon Blue Fantasy Football Outlooks
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten, San Francisco 49ers RB Brian Robinson Jr., and Dallas Cowboys tailback Jaydon Blue appear to be three lottery-ticket waiver adds ahead of Week 7 of 2025. With all teams' starting running backs heavily rostered, it's worthwhile to look at the backup backs of as many teams as possible to […]
Time to Drop Elic Ayomanor? Fantasy Football Week 7 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)
Heading into the 2025 NFL season, there was a solid amount of hype for the Tennessee Titans' new-look offense. They used the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft to select quarterback Cam Ward, and later chose wide receiver Elic Ayomanor. From the beginning, Ayomanor has played a prominent role in the offense. […]
Should I Pickup Kenneth Gainwell or Bhayshul Tuten? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 7
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell and Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten are both serving in backup RB roles to this point in the 2025 NFL season. While both have had games of double-digit PPR fantasy points, they've mostly been irrelevant from a fantasy perspective this season. But an NFL year is a marathon, […]
Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 7 (2025)
Each week of NFL action feels like a roller coaster as a fantasy football manager. Players breaking out, seemingly breaking out but really just having fluky games, falling off a cliff to irrelevancy, or just having down weeks can be hard to keep up with. Digging into the context of each situation can be helpful, […]
Should I Pickup Tyler Allgeier or Kendre Miller? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 7
The waiver period for most fantasy leagues has passed, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't still try to add free agent pickups or make waiver claims if needed for certain players ahead of Week 7. Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier and New Orleans Saints RB Kendre Miller are two backup running backs with reasonable […]
