Justice Hill Doesn't Carry Much Value in Week 2

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill received two carries and two targets out of the backfield in Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills. Combined, he totaled -11 yards despite seeing a 45% snap share next to Derrick Henry. While he likely won't be in the negatives again, the Cleveland Browns defense is a bit tougher, […]


Derrick Henry has Plenty of Bulletin-Board Material vs. Browns

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry doesn't have anything to prove when it comes to his overall career. After last week, however, he'll look to bounce back after fumbling during a key moment in the fourth quarter, which eventually led to a loss. Then, while talking to the media, Grant Delpit from the Browns responded […]


Lamar Jackson Sets Sights on First Divisional Matchup

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is leading the team into their first divisional matchup with the Cleveland Browns in Week 2 after a devastating loss to the Buffalo Bills. Even though Jackson turned in a great performance, the team gave up 22 points in the fourth quarter to eventually lose by one. The Browns don't […]


Malcolm Brogdon Heading to Knicks on One-Year Deal

Free-agent guard Malcolm Brogdon will join his sixth team in 10 seasons after agreeing to a one-year deal with the New York Knicks. ESPN's NBA Insider, Shams Charania, reports that the two sides agreed to a one-year contract on Friday after the veteran point guard appeared in 24 games last season with the Washington Wizards. […]


Landry Shamet Staying with the Knicks

New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet is sticking around with the team for at least one more year. According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Shamet and the Knicks agreed to a one-year deal on Thursday. The former first-round pick has spent time on six different teams since being drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers in 2018. Last […]


Cardinals D/ST a Great Streaming Option in Week 1

The Arizona Cardinals defense/special teams was very inconsistent last season, which was a common theme amongst the entire squad. They were smack in the middle of the pack at 15th for points against (22.3 per game), and they ranked 20th in takeaways. This past offseason, however, the team focused on bolstering the defense in a […]


Chad Ryland a Mid-Level Play in Week 1

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland finished in K2 territory (K18 overall) last season despite hitting 87.5% of his field goals. The Cardinals' offense stalled out in a handful of games, which hurt Ryland's overall production since he wasn't getting into field goal range all the time and wasn't bolstering his fantasy output with extra point […]


Trey McBride Eyes Another Elite Season

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride has improved his numbers each year over the first three seasons of his career. Last season, he finished with 111 receptions for 1,146 yards and two touchdowns on 147 targets. He finished as the TE2, despite having the fewest touchdowns among the top 11 at his position. A positive […]


Zay Jones Not on the Fantasy Radar in Week 1

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Zay Jones hasn't exactly been fantasy-relevant since his best season with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2022. Outside of that year, he's gone for more than 600 yards once, back in 2018 with the Buffalo Bills. Last year with the Cardinals, Jones appeared in 11 games and received 11 targets, which turned […]


Michael Wilson Nothing More Than a Dart Throw in Week 1

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has been quite disappointing through the first two seasons of his career. He was healthier last season and suited up for three more games than his rookie year, yet he put up fewer yards and only one more touchdown with 13 more targets and nine more receptions. He's borderline […]


Marvin Harrison Jr. a High-End WR2 Against Saints

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. entered his rookie year in 2024 with insane expectations as his ADP in fantasy drafts was a late first-round pick. If that price tag weren't so high, a rookie year with 62 receptions, 885 yards, and eight touchdowns on 116 targets would probably have been a little more […]


Trey Benson is Hard to Trust in Week 1

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson produced a very forgettable rookie season in 2024. He registered a total of 69 touches (63 carries, six receptions), 350 yards from scrimmage, one rushing touchdown, and one fumble. The Cardinals hope he eventually becomes the successor to James Conner, but the veteran set career highs in yards and […]


James Conner a Solid RB2 Option in Season Opener

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner has quietly built a solid career as he enters year No. 9 in the NFL. The former Pitt Panther is only 30 yards away from 6,000 and one touchdown shy of 60, which he could reach in the first week of the season, making him the 55th running back […]


Kyler Murray Carries Top-10 Upside in Week 1

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is entering his seventh season in the NFL with only one playoff appearance under his belt and a total record of 36-45-1. The two-time Pro Bowler has only led the league in any stat one time, and that was in his rookie year when he led in sacks taken. With […]


Ravens D/ST Draws Tough Task in Week 1

The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams has one of the tougher matchups in Week 1. They take on the reigning MVP, Josh Allen, and the Buffalo Bills, who put up 27 points on them with no turnovers. The Ravens did add two highly touted rookies to the defense in Mike Green and Malaki Starks, while adding […]


Tyler Loop a Mid-Level Option in First Career Game

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop has big shoes to fill in his first season after being drafted with the 186th overall pick this year. Despite the shaky last season and shady off-field allegations, the Ravens were used to one of the most accurate kickers in NFL history with Justin Tucker. Loop showed some impressive leg […]


DeAndre Hopkins Looking to Bolster Offensive Firepower Against Bills

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins looks to be stepping into the role that Nelson Agholor played over the last couple of seasons. That isn't saying too much, as Agholor only amassed 231 yards and two touchdowns on 14 receptions last year. Hopkins is obviously the better talent of the two, but the 33-year-old finished […]


Mark Andrews Comes Into Another Season with TE1 Value

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews was the target of a lot of hatred and criticism the last time he took on the Buffalo Bills. His last-minute drop sealed their fate in the playoffs, then he had to hear his name in constant trade rumors. Despite the playoff miscue and a few goose eggs throughout […]


Rashod Bateman a Touchdown-or-Bust Flex Play in Week 1

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman finally flashed a bit of the talent last season that the team has been patiently awaiting. Entering his fifth year, Bateman more than doubled his career touchdown total last season as he hauled in nine touchdown passes. He also registered career highs in targets (72), yards (756), and yards […]


Zay Flowers Carries WR2 Upside in Season Opener

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers was one of the most popular names among the potential breakout candidates last season. In the end, he averaged almost the exact same amount of fantasy points per game in PPR leagues (12.1 vs 12.3). The speedy wideout finished as WR1 and a WR2 in three games each last […]


Justice Hill Carries Some PPR Value in Week 1

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill is set to reprise his role as the pass-catching back this season after one of his best years in 2024. Throughout the 2024 season, Hill saw 42% of the offensive snaps, and he received 47 carries compared to 51 targets during those opportunities. His average depth of target was […]


Derrick Henry Coming Into Week 1 with Big Expectations Again

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry remained a first-round fantasy draft pick in terms of ADP this year despite turning 31 years old and entering his 10th season in the NFL. The former Titan has been a freak of nature throughout his career, so the fact that he took on a heavy workload last season […]


Lamar Jackson Prepared for the MVP Duel in Week 1

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is set to face off against the only guy who stood between him and a third MVP award last season. The two-time MVP is coming off a historic season where he threw for 4,172 yards, 41 touchdowns, and only four interceptions, in addition to 915 yards and four more scores […]


Emari Demercado Can't Get Much Going Against Raiders

Arizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado received the most carries out of a crowded backfield on Saturday, but couldn't turn it into much. As the Cardinals beat the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday, Demercado posted 22 yards on seven carries and caught two of his three targets for eight yards. Bam Knight led the way […]


Simi Fehoko Snags Another Touchdown on Saturday

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Simi Fehoko was able to grab a second touchdown reception in as many preseason games. During the 20-10 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday, Fehoko saw two targets and caught one of them for a 10-yard touchdown towards the end of the first quarter. The former fifth-round pick finishes […]


Bam Knight Finishes Preseason with Strong Showing

Arizona Cardinals running back Bam Knight saved his best game for last in the preseason victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday. The 24-year-old led all rushers in yards and touchdowns after he registered 83 yards on five carries and a big 67-yard touchdown run. Knight was able to find a hole right up […]


Clayton Tune Throws Touchdown In Preseason Finale

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Clayton Tune was under duress for most of the game during the 20-10 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders, but was able to lead the team to a touchdown. He finished the game with 83 yards and a touchdown on 12-for-20 passing while adding five carries for 47 yards. He also took […]


Michael Carter Sees Five Targets Out of the Backfield

Arizona Cardinals running back Michael Carter contributed a bit more in the passing game in the team's second preseason game against the Denver Broncos on Saturday. The entire team couldn't get much going, but Carter ended up with 10 yards on eight carries to go along with five receptions for 19 yards on five targets. […]


Emari Demercado Posts Lackluster Day Against Broncos

Arizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado had a solid game in the preseason opener, but couldn't get much going in their second game on Saturday. He registered just 15 yards on six carries and didn't catch his lone target of the day. At this rate, the Cardinals are trying to decide who will slot into […]


Jacoby Brissett Throws Another Touchdown in Limited Work

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett was only behind center for two drives on Saturday, but made the best of it during the 27-7 loss to the Denver Broncos. The veteran finished the day with 57 yards and a touchdown on 6-for-8 passing, and one carry for two yards. After going three-and-out on the opening drive, […]
