I’m Danny Boily (@DannyBoily on X), and I proudly contribute fantasy football analysis for @RotoBaller. My perspective on the game is rooted in 30 years of following the NFL and a quarter-century of success playing fantasy football—25 seasons that have taught me that reliable analysis is always the winning edge. For the past three years, my goal as a writer has been to translate that experience into clear, trustworthy advice for my readers. My weekly columns, including my specialized "Landmines" feature, focus on finding the traps in the weekly rankings. I spend my time studying the game film and advanced metrics to identify high-volume players who are statistically poised to underperform due to tough matchups or unsustainable production. This approach is informed by my hands-on background: I've coached both flag and tackle football (plus basketball), which gives me a unique perspective on scheme design and how coaches actually utilize their players on the field. As a lifelong fan, I cheer for the New York Giants and my Edmonton Oilers, but my analysis stays objective and focused on your roster’s success. I believe that sound, consistent reasoning is the key to winning, and my writing is dedicated to providing you with the reliable, well-reasoned evidence needed to confidently manage your team every single week.

Russell Wilson Looking For First Win In 2025

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson enters Week 3 with a strong outlook as he prepares to face the Kansas City Chiefs at home. After a slow start in Week 1, Wilson's explosive 450-yard, three-touchdown game against Dallas has vaulted him to the QB7 overall, averaging an impressive 23.8 fantasy points per game. The Chiefs' […]

Fantasy Football Landmines to Avoid for Week 2? Jaylen Warren, DeVonta Smith, Baker Mayfield, more

Week 1 is complete, and for some of you, it was a week of joy, while for others, it was a frustrating reminder of how quickly the game can humble you. Regardless of where you stand, the time for celebration or self-pity is over. The temptation is real: to overvalue a player who had an […]


Giants Defense Facing a Solid Passing Attack

The New York Giants defense is a risky fantasy start for Week 2 against a potent Dallas Cowboys offense, despite a solid sack total in Week 1. While the Giants' defense recorded three sacks against Washington, including two by Brian Burns, they also allowed three touchdowns and were on the field for an extended period. […]


Graham Gano Could Continue Success In Week 2

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano is a possible fantasy option for Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys, depending on your league. Gano was responsible for all six of the Giants' points in Week 1, making both of his field goal attempts, including a long of 52 yards, for 8 fantasy points. This puts him […]


Jaxson Dart is the Second-Stringer and is Ready to Play

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart is not a recommended fantasy option for Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys, as he is not expected to play. Although the rookie first-round draft pick has impressed in the preseason and is the team's QB2, head coach Brian Daboll has publicly stated that Russell Wilson will remain the […]


Theo Johnson Is Not Recommended In Week 2

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson is not a recommended fantasy start for Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys. He was the TE49 in fantasy football for Week 1, securing just one of his three targets for five receiving yards and one fantasy point. This meager production, despite dominating the tight-end snaps with 46, […]


Cam Skattebo Is A Wait-and-See Fantasy Player

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo is not a recommended fantasy start for Week 2, despite facing a favorable matchup. Skattebo was the RB58 in Week 1, with a minimal role, receiving only two carries for -3 yards and two receptions for 12 yards, totaling just 1.9 fantasy points on an 11.8% timeshare. While […]


Tyrone Tracy Jr. Looks Poised For A Better Game

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. had a lackluster Week 1, but his fantasy outlook improves considerably heading into a favorable Week 2 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. As the RB39 in Week 1, Tracy managed only 4.5 fantasy points with 24 rushing yards and 11 receiving yards, but he dominated the backfield […]


Russell Wilson Looks To Bounce Back Against the Cowboys

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson had a tough Week 1, but he has an encouraging fantasy outlook heading into his Week 2 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Wilson was the QB23 in fantasy after mustering only 12.8 fantasy points against the Commanders, throwing for 168 yards and zero touchdowns. However, the Cowboys' defense allowed […]

Fantasy Football Landmines to Avoid for Week 1 - Justin Fields, David Montgomery, Jerry Jeudy, more

The offseason is a time of optimism. We draft our teams, pore over rookie reports, and listen to every bit of coach-speak with the unwavering belief that this is our year. The 2025-26 NFL season is finally here, and with it, the promise of a championship.  We’ve studied the depth charts, analyzed advanced metrics, and […]


Giants Defense Hoping to Reach Potential vs. Commanders

New York Giants defense may be a sneaky good fantasy play for Week 1 despite the team's struggles last season. While the Giants' overall defense ranked 24th in 2024, they were tied for ninth in the league with 45 sacks and added rookie Abdul Carter, the third overall pick, to their formidable pass rush. The […]


Graham Gano Looks To Rebound in 2025

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano is a difficult fantasy start for Week 1, given his recent injury history and the unknown offensive output of the team. Gano has missed significant time over the last two seasons due to injury and saw his field goal percentage drop to 73.25% over the past two seasons. While […]


Theo Johnson Is the Unquestioned Starting TE in 2025

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson is a high-upside fantasy option entering his second season as the unquestioned top tight end. As a rookie in 2024, Johnson averaged 4.47 fantasy points per game and showcased his potential with 331 receiving yards. The matchup against the Washington Commanders is a difficult one, as they were […]


Darius Slayton Starting Once Again

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton is a long-shot fantasy option for Week 1 despite his speed and veteran presence. Coming off a season where he averaged 5.66 fantasy points per game, Slayton is not a recommended play for most fantasy leagues. The Washington Commanders' defense was the 8th-ranked fantasy defense against wide receivers […]


Wan'Dale Robinson Continues His Role as a Slot Receiver

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson is a risky Week 1 fantasy play despite a career-high 140 targets in 2024. He enters the season with new quarterback Russell Wilson, and he is ranked as the 57th-best fantasy wide receiver for Week 1. The matchup against the Washington Commanders does not appear favorable, as they […]


Cam Skattebo Set To Play in First NFL Game vs. the Commanders

New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo is a player to watch for later weeks, but he is not a recommended play for his Week 1 debut. The Giants drafted Skattebo in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft after a standout college season with over 2,300 scrimmage yards. However, he is currently […]


Tyrone Tracy Jr. Opens the Season as the Starting RB

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. is a promising fantasy option for his Week 1 matchup against the Washington Commanders. Coming off a solid rookie season in which he averaged 13.48 fantasy points per game, Tracy is ranked as the 22nd-best fantasy running back for the opening week. The matchup is favorable, as […]


Russell Wilson Set to Make First Start as a Giant

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson enters Week 1 against the Washington Commanders as a risky fantasy play. Despite a solid 2024 season with the Steelers, where he averaged 15.7 fantasy points per game, he is ranked as the 29th-best fantasy quarterback for the opening week. The Commanders' defense, which ranked 19th against fantasy quarterbacks […]


Thomas Fidone II Scores A Touchdown Against The Patriots

New York Giants rookie tight end Thomas Fidone II caught a touchdown on Thursday, August 21, 2025, during the Giants' 42-10 preseason victory over the New England Patriots. Fidone caught four of his five targets for 39 yards, with his longest reception going for 28 yards and averaging 9.8 yards per catch. The rookie seventh-round […]


Greg Dulcich Scores Another Two Touchdowns in Preseason Finale

New York Giants tight end Greg Dulcich scored two touchdowns on Thursday, August 21, 2025, in a 42-10 preseason victory over the New England Patriots. Dulcich caught four of his four targets for 26 yards, with his longest reception going for 10 yards, averaging 6.5 yards per catch. The two touchdowns (third of the preseason) […]


Cam Skattebo Makes Pro Debut In Final Preseason Game

New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo made his professional debut with a short but efficient outing in the Giants' 42-10 preseason victory over the Patriots. The rookie, who has been nursing a hamstring injury for a few weeks, was active for the first time and handled the first three carries of the game. […]


Jaxson Dart Shines Again In Final Preseason Game

New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart had another excellent performance in the team's 42-10 win over the New England Patriots, showcasing his dual-threat abilities before an injury scare ended his night. The first-round pick started the game hot, throwing a 7-yard touchdown to tight end Greg Dulcich on the opening drive. He finished the […]
