Jonah Coleman was a popular late-round pick in fantasy drafts as a day-three rusher with the potential to take on a role in a good Denver Broncos offense. Fantasy managers got a glimpse of Coleman’s ability to make an impact in Week 2. The rookie running back saw an expanded role due to injuries in […]

It has been hard to find consistent RB2 production in fantasy football this season. Injuries have knocked out some popular late-round selections, and teams have been more judiciously splitting roles between multiple players to maximize their talent. One player fantasy managers were hoping they could rely on in 2026 was New York Giants second-year running […]

Week 6 was not an ideal week for quarterback production in fantasy football. Not only were fantasy managers missing some big names because of bye weeks (Jared Goff, Joe Burrow, and Kyler Murray), but teams in general struggled to put up points through the air. Only six quarterbacks (Trevor Lawrence, Tyler Shough, Drake Maye, Michael […]

There weren’t many signature fantasy performances in Week 6. Through Sunday’s games, only 25 total players across all positions surpassed 20.0 fantasy points in the week. It certainly didn’t help that several signature players from Cincinnati, Detroit, Minnesota, and Miami were on bye. Unfortunately, bye weeks won’t be any kinder in Week 7. Fantasy managers […]

Fantasy managers drafted Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice, hoping that he would get the target share needed to re-establish himself as a potential top-10 fantasy wide receiver after showing that potential to start the 2024 season. Rice was starting to see his role creep up gradually during the start of the season before […]

The 2026 season hasn't been kind to fantasy running back depth. There are 10 running backs who are averaging 18.0+ fantasy points per game, but only 25 total rushers who are averaging 10.0+ points per game. The lack of solid RB2 options has led fantasy managers to churn the waiver wire each week, hoping that […]

Quarterback scoring returned to form in Week 5. Two quarterbacks (Drake Maye and Jayden Daniels) surpassed the 30-point mark. Another eight (Jordan Love, Jared Goff, Joe Burrow, Jameis Winston, Jacoby Brissett, Aaron Rodgers, Trevor Lawrence, and C.J. Stroud) broke 20 points. Unfortunately, it’s also the time of year when bye weeks force fantasy managers to […]

The Philadelphia Eagles made the decision to move on from veteran wide receiver A.J. Brown this offseason, a move that signaled that they believed that DeVonta Smith was their WR1 of the present and future. Fantasy managers responded by using a top 36 pick on the Eagles’ pass catcher, hoping for an expanded role in […]

One of the biggest edges that fantasy managers can unlock is nailing the quarterback position. Finding a player who can elevate fantasy scoring as both a passer and rusher has long been a cheat code in fantasy football. Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has been one of those cheat codes throughout his career. 2025 was […]

The football season is well underway. That means teams, both real-life and fantasy, are dealing with injuries and ineffectiveness that could derail their season. NFL teams are always churning through free agency to find running back depth as they work to address injuries. Sometimes teams look at players who are young and looking for their […]

Bye weeks started in Week 5 but will ramp up in Week 6. Four teams will be out of action this week, three of which (Detroit, Minnesota, and Cincinnati) have numerous fantasy-relevant players at every position. Being able to target under-the-radar waiver wire options can be the difference between winning and losing at this point […]

Week 4 was filled with memorable performances across all fantasy positions. However, it also served as a brutal reminder of how quickly injuries can change the outlooks for teams and fantasy managers. Things will get even more complicated in Week 5 now that bye weeks are starting. Only two teams are on bye in Week […]

Week 4 wasn't a banner week for quarterbacks. Eight signal-callers (Drake Maye, Joe Burrow, C.J. Stroud, Kirk Cousins, Aaron Rodgers, Brock Purdy, Jared Goff, and Bryce Young) scored over 20 fantasy points on the week. Seven quarterbacks threw for over 300 passing yards (including 400-yard performances from Burrow and Goff), but only three passers had […]

Injuries are an unfortunate part of fantasy football. Knowing how to navigate those situations can make or break a fantasy season. One tenet that many fantasy players live by is avoiding players who come into the 2026 season injured. However, other players will target summer injuries in hopes of getting a player at a discount. […]

Injuries are an unfortunate part of fantasy football. Knowing how to navigate those situations can make or break a fantasy season. Fantasy managers drafted Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams hoping that he took a step as a passer in Ben Johnson’s offense after an uneven 2025 season. Williams showed off the ability to generate jaw-dropping […]

From a pure talent perspective, Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson was the most talented wide receiver prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft. Tyson’s college film was littered with acrobatic catches and explosive plays after the catch. Tyson’s injury history was also a major red flag. Tyson dealt with a significant hamstring injury throughout his […]

Injuries have derailed MarShawn Lloyd’s career over his first two professional seasons. Lloyd, a former third-round pick, played just 10 snaps as a rookie while navigating hamstring, hip, and ankle injuries as a rookie. He missed the entire 2025 season with a hamstring injury as well. Lloyd came into 2026 healthy and showed his explosiveness […]

Jonathon Brooks was a fast riser in fantasy drafts throughout the summer. The 2024 second-round pick entered the season fully recovered from his ACL injury (his second in two seasons), which he suffered as a rookie. There was also excitement around the Panthers offense after a 2025 playoff berth that saw the team take the […]

The 2026 season has featured plenty of unexpected on-field performances. Week 3 also produced some surprising results among fantasy quarterbacks. Six quarterbacks in Week 3 had 20+ fantasy points at the conclusion of the 4 p.m. window. A few are names you’d expect to see at the top of fantasy scoring (Brock Purdy, Tyler Shough, […]

Week 3 reminded everyone how cruel fantasy football can be. Fantasy managers were already navigating the waiver wire at quarterback after watching quarterbacks Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, and Jaxson Dart go down in Week 2. However, the other shoe dropped in Week 3. Each position got hit with a big named injury in Week 3. […]

The fantasy season just started, but now is the time to evaluate your roster and make decisions to try to optimize your fantasy scoring for the immediate and long-term future. Getting stuck on the players you drafted, especially when their role isn’t providing fantasy points, can sink fantasy lineups quickly. One player who could fit […]

It is still early in the 2026 season, but we are starting to get a feel for the players we can trust in fantasy football. Fantasy managers who are willing to be proactive, churn through their team, and attack the waiver wire early in the season can salvage a poor roster or fortify a strong […]

2025 was a big year for fantasy football running backs. As a result, it pushed running backs up in 2026 drafts, leaving fantasy managers scrambling for late-round upside and production. One player fantasy managers gravitated to in drafts was Detroit Lions running back Isiah Pacheco. Pacheco was signed to replace some of David Montgomery’s production […]

The Minnesota Vikings offense disappointed fantasy managers in 2025, but there were reasons for optimism in 2026. The team added a veteran quarterback (Kyler Murray), hoping that he could elevate the floor of an offense that bottomed out last season. One of the players who gained steam throughout the summer was veteran running back Jordan […]

Every season, fantasy managers talk themselves into the impact that rookies, especially first-round rookies, can make for their respective teams. When they are right, getting a discount on a talented and fantasy-relevant player can swing the season. One player who was drawing some excitement was New York Jets first-round wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. Unfortunately, […]

We have already seen some great fantasy performances through the first two weeks of the 2026 NFL season. Unfortunately, the calling card of the first two weeks has been injuries that have ravaged both NFL and fantasy teams. That’s true for San Francisco 49ers second-round wide receiver De’Zhaun Stribling. The rookie earned a role in […]

Week 2 of the fantasy season reminded us that football can be brutal. Major injuries took out several quarterbacks (Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, and Jaxson Dart), running backs (Jadarian Price and Saquon Barkley), wide receivers (Malik Nabers, Mike Evans, and Alec Pierce), and tight ends (Dallas Goedert, David Njoku, and Eli Raridon). Those injuries could […]

It was glorious to have football back in our lives during Week 1. Unfortunately, Week 2 reminded us of this game's harsh realities. Both the Chicago Bears (Caleb Williams) and Washington Commanders (Jayden Daniels) lost their third-year quarterbacks for an undetermined amount of time. Thankfully, there have been a lot of quarterbacks performing at a […]

Baller Move: Bench in standard leagues, mid-end FLEX in deeper leagues Positional Value: WR4 Analysis: One of the big mysteries in fantasy football this offseason was how the Miami Dolphins’ offense would look in 2026. Miami signed quarterback Malik Willis to a big contract in free agency, but his pass-catching group was filled with unproven […]

The 2026 NFL season is finally here, and we saw some memorable performances in Week 1. Whether it was Caleb Williams showing that he may have taken another step as a player in 2026, finishing as the QB1 through Sunday’s games (37.2 points), or Lamar Jackson looking like he was in vintage form with a […]
