DeAndre Hopkins a Dart-Throw Option Vs. Steelers

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins registered his best fantasy performance in half-PPR leagues since Week 5 in last Thursday's Thanksgiving night loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The problem is that he only had four fantasy points in that game against the Cincinnati Bengals, which extends his streak of games with less than 10 fantasy […]


Rashod Bateman a Risky Flex Option in Week 14

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman popped up as a limited participant on Thursday's practice report, but has since registered a full practice on Friday and is good to go against the Pittsburgh Steelers. While he'll be suiting up, his consistency hasn't been conducive to deploying him into fantasy lineups very often. He's only finished […]


Mark Andrews Holding TE1 Value Against Steelers

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews is fresh off of signing a new extension and becoming the triple-crown record breaker in franchise history (receiving touchdowns, receiving yards, and receptions). While his season hasn't been as consistent in years past, Andrews sits at TE13 overall in half-PPR formats. Isaiah Likely was predicted to cut into his […]


Zay Flowers Aiming for a Bounce-Back Performance Vs. Steelers

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers registered the worst game of his career in Week 13, and it was the first time he failed to reach 10 receiving yards since Week 15 in 2023, when he had one catch for seven yards against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Finishing as the WR106 looks even worse against a […]


Derrick Henry Carries Low-End RB1 Value in Week 14

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry is coming off of a RB1 level finish against the Cincinnati Bengals where there were plenty of points left on the table after receiving just 10 carries. Head coach John Harbaugh talked about getting Henry more carries, but this isn't the first time he's said it, even over the […]


Lamar Jackson a Low-End QB1 Against Steelers

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has endured quite the rough stretch of fantasy finishes and injuries over the last few weeks. He's dealt with a toe issue, ankle issue, and a hamstring injury earlier in the season. While Jackson has looked rough due to the injuries or not, the Ravens haven't helped him out by […]


Ravens D/ST a Shaky Option in Week 13

The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams unit has turned around their season in a big way over the last six games. They collected three sacks, one fumble, and one interception while allowing just 10 points to the New York Jets in Week 12. While the Cincinnati Bengals have had up-and-down outings over the last few weeks, […]


Tyler Loop a Top Option in Week 13

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop continues to roll as the team rides a five-game win streak. In Week 12, Loop made all three of his field goal attempts (31, 35, and 27 yards) as well both of his extra point attempts. He's finished as a K1 in four of his last five games, while the […]


DeAndre Hopkins Hard to Trust, Even in Great Week 13 Matchup

Baltimore Ravens veteran wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins hasn't made a fantasy impact since the first two weeks of the season, and Week 12 wasn't any different. Despite seeing a couple more targets over the last few weeks, Hopkins still finished with only two or three fantasy points in half-PPR formats. Even though he's going up […]


Mark Andrews Gets Value Boost with Good Matchup in Week 13

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews put up a dud in Week 12 after a three-game stretch where he finished as the TE5, TE9, and TE4 in half-PPR formats. Before that stretch, he only had one other TE1 finish. In Week 13, however, Andrews and the Ravens take on the Cincinnati Bengals. They're ranked last […]


Zay Flowers Once Again Hovering Around WR2 Status in Week 13

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers is quite possibly one of the most consistent options in PPR leagues. Not consistent as in always in the running for WR1 overall, more like consistently putting up average fantasy numbers that are good if he's the flex player every week. He still has a touchdown-less streak and non-WR1 […]


Keaton Mitchell a Risky Option in Week 13

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell is set to see a bit more action in Week 13 after Justice Hill (neck) has officially been ruled out. In Week 12, Mitchell finished with more touches (3) than Hill (0) despite the fact that he had a 19% snap share compared to Hill's 25%. The young speedster […]


Derrick Henry Draws a Great Matchup on Thanksgiving

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has finished as an RB1 in each of the last two weeks, and has registered double-digit fantasy points over his last six consecutive games in half-PPR formats. Despite an ugly average of 3.0 yards per carry last week, he's always a threat to score, like he did twice against […]


Lamar Jackson Still Projected as a QB1 Against Bengals

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has registered a rough stretch of fantasy finishes over the last three games as he continues to deal with a slew of injuries. This week, he was dealing with a toe issue that kept him out of the walkthrough on Monday, but he was a full participant the rest of […]


Ravens D/ST Draws a Great Matchup in Week 12

The Baltimore Ravens D/ST has continued their resurgence since the bye with another big week against the Cleveland Browns in Week 11. After collecting just three turnovers in the first six weeks of the season, they have forced eight over the last four weeks. Part of that is the fact that they've faced a much […]


Tyler Loop Still Holds K1 Value in Week 12

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop has now finished two weeks in a row as a K1, and all signs point to him continuing that streak. The rookie made a 24, 25, and 44-yard field goal in Week 11 to go along with two extra points. Loop and the Ravens take on the New York Jets […]


Tylan Wallace Not on the Fantasy Radar in Week 12

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace has seen a bit of an increase in snap count since Rashod Bateman (ankle) has been sidelined. The only issue is that the added snaps haven't turned into production since the top targets are still playing. Wallace can be a decent deep threat with his speed, but a lot […]


DeAndre Hopkins Not a Reliable Option in Week 12

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has yet to capitalize on any injuries to the pass-catchers despite seeing an uptick in targets over the last two weeks. He's turned 8 targets in two games into three catches for 27 yards and no touchdowns. He hasn't even finished in the top 50 at the position since […]


Isaiah Likely a Risky, Low-End TE2 Vs. Jets

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely has yet to post a breakthrough performance and hasn't found the end zone yet this season. That's a big difference from his six touchdowns and four double-digit fantasy point finishes from last year. Likely has also been dealing with some nagging injuries for most of the year, which could […]


Keaton Mitchell a Dart-Throw Flex Play in Week 12

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell has been seeing more and more playing time as the season has progressed. He started off as a healthy scratch and then saw a season-high 26% of the offensive snaps in Week 11. This was with Justice Hill sidelined, however, and he has been officially cleared to return against […]


Mark Andrews Holds Low-End TE1 Value in Week 12

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has been back to his old ways, finding the end zone and registering TE1 finishes in three straight weeks. Week 11, he actually scored on a 35-yard run out of a fake tush push which gave the Ravens the lead and eventually the win. In those last three weeks, […]


Zay Flowers Looking Like a Mid-Level WR2 in Week 12

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has been one of the most consistent 10-to-12 fantasy point finishers in the NFL this year. That could be either good or bad depending on roster makeups and depth of league, but he's registered six finishes in that range for half-PPR formats. While the New York Jets are only […]


Derrick Henry Carrying RB1 Momentum into Week 12

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry found the end zone last week after going without a touchdown in the two weeks prior. It was also a huge bounce back from the first time he went up against the Cleveland Browns and only registered two fantasy points. In Week 12, he goes up against the New […]


Lamar Jackson Looking for Bounce-Back Week Vs. Jets

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has registered two weeks in a row outside of QB1 territory. This is the first time he's done so since the 2023 season from Week 8 to Week 10. Last season, every time he had a lackluster performance, he followed it up with a top six fantasy finish. In Week […]


Grayson Allen Sidelined Again on Friday

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (quad) will officially miss a third consecutive game with a right quad contusion. The team ruled him out ahead of time on Friday, so they'll take on the Minnesota Timberwolves in their NBA Cup game without Allen's 18.5 points per game. Ryan Dunn and Collin Gillespie should both continue to […]


Jaden McDaniels Could Miss Another Game on Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (wrist) may only need to miss one game after picking up a questionable tag for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He's dealing with a sprained wrist that he suffered on Monday in their win over the Dallas Mavericks. The 25-year-old doesn't miss games very often, so he has a […]


Cooper Flagg Listed as Available on Friday

Dallas Mavericks forward Cooper Flagg (thumb) will play with a splint on his right thumb and has been listed as available for the team's NBA Cup matchup with the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday. He was forced to miss one game on Wednesday, but luckily, he is already set to return. It remains to be […]


D'Angelo Russell Questionable on Friday Vs. Pelicans

Dallas Mavericks guard D'Angelo Russell (illness) appeared on the injury report ahead of Friday's NBA Cup game because he's dealing with some sort of illness. He's currently tagged as questionable, and the assumption is that the team will monitor him until warmups. Over the last few games, Russell has averaged 23.0 minutes per contest while […]


Collin Murray-Boyles Ruled Out Friday Against Wizards

Toronto Raptors forward Collin Murray-Boyles (knee) is still dealing with an MCL sprain in his right knee and has been ruled out for Friday's NBA Cup matchup with the Washington Wizards. This will be the second consecutive absence for the rookie. The ninth-overall pick has been a solid rotational power forward so far for the […]


Jaylon Tyson Tagged as Questionable on Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Jaylon Tyson (concussion) drew a questionable status heading into Friday's NBA Cup game against the Indiana Pacers. The second-year guard has seen a sizeable jump in all of his stats across the board, and has seen a big increase in playing time. He's missed the last five games due to a concussion, […]
