Cardinals D/ST a Shaky Option Vs. 49ers

The Arizona Cardinals D/ST has looked quite improved so far from last season. They're ranked 10th in points allowed per game, eighth in takeaway differential, and sixth in rushing yards allowed per game. The big caveat is that they've only played the New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers through the first two weeks. They have […]


Trey McBride Looks to Keep Things Rolling in Week 3

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride is currently sitting at the TE6 in both half and full-PPR formats through two weeks. The passing game in general hasn't looked too great, so McBride and Marvin Harrison Jr. are still getting up to speed. McBride also hasn't found the end zone yet, just like the start of […]


Zay Jones Currently Holds No Fantasy Value

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Zay Jones is so far off the fantasy radar that he's invisible. The veteran pass-catcher has only received one target in two games and caught it for four yards. He was even out on the field for 51% of the snaps against the Carolina Panthers in Week 2, but didn't receive […]


Michael Wilson Not Much of an Option in Week 3

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has now registered finishes of WR105 and WR60 in PPR formats through two weeks. He even scored a touchdown in Week 2, but that was his only catch for 11 yards. He's now amassed six targets, two receptions, and 16 yards against two of the weaker defenses in the […]


Marvin Harrison Jr. Looking to Bounce Back in Week 3

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has had plenty of ups and downs throughout his short NFL career so far. It definitely didn't give any fantasy managers a warm and fuzzy feeling when Kyler Murray shrugged off a question about getting Harrison more targets by saying, "Some days he's gonna get 10, and some […]


Trey Benson is Not a Trustworthy Start Just Yet

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson continues to see more opportunities so far this season, but his fantasy relevance hasn't hit a startable point just yet. In Week 1, he saw 33% of the offensive snaps and then received 44% in Week 2. He finished right around the middle of RB3 territory in PPR formats […]


James Conner a Mid-Level RB2 in Week 3

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner saw his snap share shrink a bit more in Week 2 from 65% to 55%. A two-yard rushing touchdown salvaged his week as he finished as the RB24 in half-PPR formats, but he could only muster 34 yards on 11 carries. The Panthers are ranked 26th against the run […]


Kyler Murray a Low-End QB1 Against 49ers

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray has been his usual inconsistent self to start the season. In Week 1 against the New Orleans Saints, he finished just outside of QB1 territory, and then he dropped even further against a weaker defense in the Carolina Panthers in Week 2. The good news, for Cardinals fans, is that […]


Yuri Collins Headed to Brooklyn

Free-agent guard Yuri Collins has agreed to a deal with the Brooklyn Nets, which will likely mean heading to Long Island to play for their G-League affiliate. According to C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News, the Nets signed Collins on Friday to what seems like a camp deal. The undrafted 24-year-old appeared in […]


Hornets Sign Keyontae Johnson

Free-agent forward Keyontae Johnson is signing a camp deal with the Charlotte Hornets, according to their public relations team. He'll likely head to the G League, where he spent last season with the Greensboro Swarm, but he'll at least get a chance to compete for a roster spot. The Hornets already have 16 players on […]


Dennis Smith Jr. Agrees to One-Year Deal With Mavericks

Free-agent guard Dennis Smith Jr. has agreed to return to the Dallas Mavericks on a one-year deal. Shams Charania of ESPN was the first to report the new deal, but Kurt Helin of NBC Sports has some further details on the one-year signing. This is reportedly not a guaranteed contract, and Smith will have to […]


Tyler Herro Undergoing Foot/Ankle Surgery

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot/ankle) has reportedly been dealing with a foot and ankle impingement since the middle of the summer. According to Anthony Chiang, beat reporter for the Miami Herald, Herro was trying to avoid surgery and received some platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments along with some cortisone injections. That apparently has not been […]


Giannis Antetokounmpo Leads Greece to Bronze Medal

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo led Greece to their first podium finish in EuroBasket since 2009. The two-time NBA MVP even said that this was his "greatest accomplishment." In the third-place game, Antetokounmpo finished with 30 points on 9-for-11 shooting from the floor and 12-for-16 from the charity stripe. He also chipped in with 17 […]


Alperen Sengun Drops 28 Points in EuroBasket Finals

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun had quite the EuroBasket performance, finishing in the top seven for points and top four for both assists and rebounds per game. Ultimately, Sengun and Turkey fell just short of the gold medal by five points to Germany. In 30 minutes, Sengung posted 28 points, three rebounds, three assists, three […]


Dennis Schroder Named EuroBasket MVP

Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder turns into a superstar every time he puts on the German National Team's jersey. He did it yet again as he led the Germans to the gold in EuroBasket this year and was even named the MVP. In the 88-83 win over Turkey, the 32-year-old posted 16 points, 12 assists, […]


Jaren Jackson Jr. Progressing in Recovery

Memphis Grizzlies center/forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (toe) underwent a procedure in July to address a turf toe injury, and it appears he's progressing well. The former Defensive Player of the Year said, "I'm feeling good. I'm progressing the right way. I'm doing what I need to do. Every day has been a building block." There […]


Jonathan Kuminga Receives New Offer From Warriors

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga has been in a negotiating stalemate since the end of last season. According to ESPN NBA insiders Anthony Slater and Shams Charania, the Warriors have recently made a stronger offer to Kuminga worth $75.2 million over three years. The third year would reportedly be a team option, and there […]


Cardinals D/ST a Risky Streaming Option in Week 2

The Arizona Cardinals defense/special teams heads into another great streaming opportunity after they were able to start the season against the shaky offense of the New Orleans Saints. The issue is that the Cardinals' defense couldn't quite capitalize to deliver a strong fantasy outing. They didn't force any turnovers and registered just one sack, even […]


Chad Ryland a Viable Starting Option in Week 2

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland put together a solid performance in Week 1 after scoring a total of eight points while going 2-for-3 in field goals. He knocked through a 42 and 50-yard field goal, but had a 46-yarder blocked in the fourth quarter. The Cardinals' offense should be able to move the ball down […]


Trey McBride Ready for Another Big Week vs. Panthers

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride needs no introduction at this point. Last season, he was the second-most targeted tight end and saw the eighth most overall. In Week 1, he received another nine targets and caught six of them for 61 yards. The only area he's lacked in thus far in his career is […]


Zay Jones Remains Unstartable in Week 2

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Zay Jones didn't play much of a part in the passing game during the Week 1 win over the New Orleans Saints. The 30-year-old caught his only target for four yards despite playing 47% of the snaps. When it comes to pecking order in the passing game, Jones was tied for […]


Michael Wilson Off of the Fantasy Radar in Week 2

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson received the third most targets on the team in Week 1 but could only manage to turn that into one reception for five yards. The third-year wideout will remain behind Trey McBride and Marvin Harrison Jr. in the pecking order and may even fall behind some of the running […]


Marvin Harrison Jr. Holds High-Level WR2 Value in Week 2

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. delivered a WR10 finish in half-PPR leagues against the New Orleans Saints in Week 1. Many expect the second-year wideout to break out after he failed to reach some lofty expectations in his rookie season. While Trey McBride still commands more targets, Harrison wasn't too far behind. The […]


James Conner Primed to Find More Success in Week 2?

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner salvaged his fantasy week against the New Orleans Saints in Week 1 with a four-yard receiving touchdown in the second quarter. Outside of that, he saw 12 carries for only 39 yards while Trey Benson took eight carries for 69 yards. We may have finally hit the timeline where […]


Kyler Murray Holds QB1 Value Again in Week 2

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray finished just outside of QB1 territory in Week 1 after throwing two touchdowns against the New Orleans Saints. His accuracy looked good most of the time, but the passing attack didn't gain many yards (163), and he was sacked five times. Fortunately, for Murray and company, the Carolina Panthers gave […]


Tyler Loop Remains a Solid Option Against Browns

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop enjoyed a good start to his NFL career despite the missed extra point against the Buffalo Bills. With 12 fantasy points, he came in as the K7 in his first game after making a 52-yarder and a 49-yarder, along with going four-for-five in extra points. This offense should have no […]


Ravens D/ST Looking to Bounce Back Against Browns

The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams had a rough go of things against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. Throughout three quarters, they looked okay, but then a nightmare of a fourth quarter saw them giving up 22 points and eventually the game. In standard scoring, they came away with negative points in […]


DeAndre Hopkins a Touchdown-or-Bust Option in Week 2

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins proved why he's a three-time All-Pro with an amazing one-handed grab against the Buffalo Bills for a touchdown. While his days of 100+ targets per season are in the rearview mirror, he can still play that outlet role whenever called upon. The biggest issue for fantasy managers is that […]


Rashod Bateman a Risky Flex Play Against Browns

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman didn't join in on the scoring in Week 1 despite the team hanging 40 points against the Buffalo Bills. Despite seeing a new career high almost across the board last season, Bateman is the definition of boom-or-bust when it comes to fantasy purposes. That's personified in the two matchups […]


Zay Flowers Looks to Build on Great Opening Performance

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers put up the second-highest fantasy points of his career in the Week 1 loss to the Buffalo Bills. In half-PPR formats, that rates second to only his game against the Denver Broncos in Week 9 last season. Now, he'll try to carry that momentum into the first divisional matchup […]
