Biggest Positional Needs For All 32 NFL Teams - NFC North Edition

It is hard to argue that the NFC North was the best division in football during the 2024 regular season. Six weeks into the season, all four teams were in a position to make the playoffs. While the Bears ultimately fell off, the Lions, Vikings, and Packers still finished the season with 11 or more […]

For many, the fantasy season ends in Week 17. Most leagues don’t want to deal with the headache of all their best starters being inactive if their team has locked in a playoff spot.

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 17) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

For many, Week 17 signals the end of the fantasy season. There is no better way to sweat out a fantasy championship with all 32 teams active and playing games over five of the next seven days.

Michael Penix Jr. - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Top Week 17 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Anthony Richardson, Bo Nix, Aaron Rodgers, Mason Rudolph, Bryce Young, more

Fantasy managers who rode Jalen Hurts and Josh Allen throughout the season and into the playoffs were certainly disappointed by their production in Week 16. Many managers were likely knocked out of the playoffs thanks to their underwhelming fantasy performances due to injuries and ineffectiveness. Still, some awesome quarterback performances could have swung fantasy matchups. […]

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 16) - Juicy Playoff Matchups

The fantasy season is close to ending. If you’re reading this article, you were likely able to navigate a slew of injuries and underwhelming performances from typically consistent fantasy players. Or, you earned a bye during the regular week. Aiming for upside is crucial at this point in the season. Only two games are between […]


Anthony Richardson - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Top Week 16 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Anthony Richardson, Aaron Rodgers, Cooper Rush, Mac Jones

Fantasy managers were treated to several fantastic fantasy performances entering the fantasy playoffs. Four quarterbacks (Lamar Jackson, Aaron Rodgers, Josh Allen, and Jayden Daniels) had more than 20 fantasy points. Two (Jackson and Rodgers) had over 30 points. It wasn’t all great for fantasy managers though. Patrick Mahomes suffered a week-to-week ankle injury. There were […]

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 15) - Juicy Playoff Matchups

The fantasy playoffs are finally here. Making the fantasy playoffs is a huge achievement that requires good drafting, diligent waiver wire moves, and strong matchup analysis.

For many, the fantasy playoffs will start next week. Week 14 also signaled the end of bye weeks in the NFL.

Sam Darnold - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 14) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

For many leagues, Week 14 signals the end of the fantasy football regular season. Unfortunately, it is also another week that features six teams on bye. Fantasy managers who couldn’t secure a first-round bye in the playoffs need to be active on the waiver wire to best position themselves to take home the championship. It […]


Will Levis - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Top Week 14 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Russell Wilson, Will Levis, Caleb Williams, Aidan O'Connell, Cooper Rush

Week 13 gave us a brief reprise from bye weeks. Unfortunately, they are back with a vengeance in Week 14 with six teams getting the week off. For many, Week 14 also signals the end of the regular season in fantasy. That means that plenty of fantasy managers who need an extra boost heading into […]

Fantasy managers get a reprieve from bye weeks in Week 13 after six teams were off in Week 12.

Understanding the offensive lines to target and avoid is especially important during weeks when every team is active. […]


DeAndre Hopkins - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Top Week 13 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Russell Wilson, Anthony Richardson, Drake Maye, and more

Week 12 was another rough week for offensive football. Just 10 teams scored more than 25 points in the week. That led to another underwhelming week of quarterback performances in fantasy. Just five quarterbacks posted more than 20.0 fantasy points. Week 13 gives us another full slate of games with three games on Thursday, one […]


2025 Fantasy Football Early-Round Best Ball Busts, Overvalued

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 12) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

Bo Nix - Fantasy Football Rankings, QB, NFL Rookies, Draft Sleepers

Top Week 12 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Bo Nix, Anthony Richardson, Russell Wilson, Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, more

There were some excellent quarterback performances for fantasy football in Week 11. Jared Goff (412 passing yards and four touchdowns) and Anthony Richardson (272 passing yards and a passing touchdown, 32 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns) each finished with more than 28 fantasy points. In total, eight different quarterbacks surpassed the 20.0-point mark. Six […]


Nick Chubb - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 11) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

Week 10 featured an excellent Thursday night game but plenty of struggles on Sunday and Monday. Some rough offensive performances from historically reliable players this season made fantasy scoring hard to come by for many. The injuries kept racking up along offensive lines across the league. In Week 10, 18 teams were missing at least […]


Bo Nix - Fantasy Football Rankings, QB, NFL Rookies, Draft Sleepers

Top Week 11 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Justin Herbert, Bo Nix, Trey Lance, Russell Wilson, Matthew Stafford, Derek Carr

Outside of a stellar Thursday matchup between the Ravens and Bengals, Week 10 was full of absolutely terrible football. There were nearly as many teams with 17 or fewer points (6) as with 27 or more points (8). Four more teams will be on bye in Week 11. Two of them (Tampa Bay and Arizona) […]


Jonathan Taylor - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 10): Offensive Line Champs, Chumps for James Cook, Joe Flacco, Kirk Cousins, Joe Mixon, CeeDee Lamb

The 2024 season continues to be a struggle for offensive football. We did get some good performances in Week 9, but once again quarterback play was down. A lot of those issues start in the trenches. Plenty of teams are navigating an array of offensive line injuries halfway through the 2024 season. Nineteen of the […]


Justin Herbert - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Top Week 10 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Russell Wilson, Drake Maye, Justin Herbert, Tua Tagovailoa, Daniel Jones, more

It was not a banner week for the quarterback position in fantasy football. There wasn’t a single quarterback that surpassed 300 passing yards between Thursday and the main Sunday slate. We did get a five passing touchdown performance (Joe Burrow) and three quarterbacks with three passing touchdowns, but that was it. Four teams have a […]


Bijan Robinson - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Rookies, Draft Sleepers

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 9) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

Bye weeks are back in Week 9 with the 49ers and Steelers getting the week off. For many teams, it is time to scour the waiver wire again to try and make a push for the fantasy playoffs. Several teams entered Week 8 with offensive line injuries, but the Vikings suffered one of the worst […]


Jameis Winston - NFL DFS Picks, Waiver Wire, Fantasy Football Rankings

Top Week 9 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Russell Wilson, Geno Smith, Jameis Winston, Matthew Stafford, Daniel Jones

Fantasy managers enjoyed a vintage quarterback performance from Jameis Winston, who led all quarterbacks in passing yardage (334) going into Sunday night. Three other quarterbacks surpassed 300 passing yards with five touchdowns throwing for three or more touchdowns (Jalen Hurts added three rushing scores). Week 8 was a nice break from bye weeks, but we […]


Javonte Williams - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS and Betting Picks

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 8) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

After two weeks of great fantasy production, Week 7 was a regression to how the season started. Plenty of teams also suffered brutal injuries to key players. Thankfully, those effects weren’t felt along the offensive line despite the number of teams that entered the week missing starters. Through seven weeks, we have a strong enough […]


Tua Tagovailoa - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Top Week 8 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Tua Tagovailoa, Geno Smith, Jameis Winston and more

After a few great offensive weeks, Week 7 was underwhelming at the quarterback position in fantasy. There was just one 300-yard passer (Josh Allen) and one quarterback with three passing touchdowns (Jordan Love). Some injuries will shake up quarterback rooms in the NFL and fantasy. Deshaun Watson (Achilles) suffered a likely season-ending injury. New Raiders’ […]


Chuba Hubbard - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 7) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

We get a slight reprieve from bye weeks in Week 7 with only two teams getting the week off (Dallas and Chicago). However, there are still fantasy matchups to be played and edges to be found with a nearly full slate of games. Offensive play is starting to stabilize after a slow start to the […]


Drake Maye - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Top Week 7 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Sam Darnold, Daniel Jones, Drake Maye, Matthew Stafford

Offensive scoring continued to stabilize in Week 6. Six teams had more than 30 points in the week. We also had a team that scored 40 points (Houston) and a team that scored 50 (Tampa Bay). It wasn’t a big passing yardage week, but there were still some excellent passing performances in the touchdown department. […]


Bijan Robinson - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Rookies, Draft Sleepers

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 6) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

We finally witnessed some offensive football in Week 5 of the NFL season. Nine different teams had 30 or more points. Five of those games went for over 35. We also saw nine different quarterbacks exceed 300 passing yards. The previous high was five. Despite the strong offensive production, offensive lines across the NFL continue […]
