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 […]


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

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 13) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

Fantasy managers get a reprieve from bye weeks in Week 13 after six teams were off in Week 12. With the fantasy playoffs just around the corner, it is essential to make waiver-wire moves to optimize lineups. 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

11 weeks have come and gone in the NFL season, which means the fantasy playoffs are just around the corner. Whether you are at the top of the standings or fighting for a playoff spot, Week 12 will feature a unique challenge. Six teams are on bye in Week 12, forcing fantasy managers to get […]


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 […]


Caleb Williams - Fantasy Football Rankings, QB, NFL Rookies, Draft Sleepers

Top Week 6 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Kirk Cousins, Justin Fields, Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, more

We finally saw some fun offensive football in Week 5. 10 teams scored over 27 points. Seven quarterbacks threw for over 300 yards, led by an absurd 509 passing-yard day from Kirk Cousins. We also had a five-touchdown performance (Joe Burrow), two quarterbacks with four touchdowns (Cousins and Lamar Jackson), and two others with three […]


Jordan Mason - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire, Draft Sleepers, Draft Rankings

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 5) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

Injuries continue to plague offensive lines across the NFL. 17 NFL teams had at least one backup offensive lineman take snaps in Week 4. Seven teams had at least two new starters. That led to a continuing trend of offensive lines struggling to get movement in the trenches. Only six teams finished with an average […]


Andy Dalton - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Top Week 5 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Sam Darnold, Geno Smith, Justin Fields and more

Five quarterbacks had more than 20 fantasy points in Week 4. Three quarterbacks (Justin Fields, Baker Mayfield, and Jordan Love) exceeded 28 fantasy points. Things will get even more bleak with bye weeks finally starting in Week 5. The quarterback position still hasn’t been great for fantasy, but at least four quarterbacks exceeded 300 passing […]


Saquon Barkley - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 4) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

Week 3 was a bloodbath for offensive lines across the NFL. 13 teams lost at least one starter in the trenches in Week 3. Several starters will be out for the rest of the season. That’s bad news for a position group struggling to start the season. Despite the injuries, we did see a slight […]


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

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups - Top Fantasy Football QB Adds for Week 4 Include Justin Fields, Sam Darnold, Andy Dalton, Daniel Jones, more

We finally got some good production out of the quarterback position in Week 3. Four quarterbacks (Dak Prescott, Caleb Williams, Andy Dalton, and Jalen Hurts) surpassed 300 passing yards. Three different quarterbacks had three or more passing touchdowns. Scoring is still down across the league, but there are signs that quarterbacks are starting to figure […]


Carson Steele - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, Waiver Wire, DFS Lineup Picks

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 3) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

Offenses continued to struggle across the NFL in Week 2. While some of that can be tied to the increased use of two-high coverages from defenses, there has certainly been a wide range of subpar offensive line play this year. Just 12 of 32 teams had their collective offensive lines average a PFF grade of […]


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

Top Week 3 Quarterback Pickups - Best Fantasy QB Adds, Streamers Include Geno Smith, Derek Carr, Sam Darnold and more

Offenses continued to find their footing in Week 2. Just five teams found a way to score 26 or more points. From a fantasy perspective, Week 2 was marginally better than Week 1. We did get four 300-yard passers, but only one quarterback had more than two passing touchdowns (Kyler Murray). Things will certainly improve, […]


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

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 2) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

If you like offensive football, Week 1 of the NFL season was underwhelming. Only two quarterbacks threw for over 300 yards. Similarly, just two quarterbacks had more than two passing touchdowns. Part of the issue with Week 1 was the collective struggle of offensive line units across the league. Just nine teams finished the week […]


Mike Evans, Baker Mayfield - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Quarterback Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Top QB Adds for Week 2 Include Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold, more

Week 1 was not a stellar week for quarterbacks. Just six quarterbacks finished Week 1 with 20 or more fantasy points. Only one quarterback (Tua Tagovailoa) had over 300 passing yards. Two quarterbacks (Baker Mayfield and Derek Carr) surpassed two passing touchdowns. The good news is it can only improve from here -- unless you […]


Baker Mayfield - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Fantasy Football Matchups to Target, Avoid (Week 1) - Offensive Line Champs and Chumps

The NFL season is finally upon us. Teams have gone through the offseason and finished training camp. This week, we will finally get live NFL action. Fantasy drafts have likely come to a close (or will shortly), meaning it is time to start making lineup decisions each week. One facet of NFL football that can […]


Raheem Mostert - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Fantasy Football Draft Targets and Avoids - AFC/NFC East

The fantasy season is just around the corner with NFL training camps just three weeks away. Plenty of teams were active in free agency and the draft, upgrading the talent on their roster. Understanding the new personnel (and coaching changes) can help fantasy managers start preparing for the season. Here at RotoBaller, we will be […]


Tank Dell - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Fantasy Football Draft Targets and Avoids - AFC/NFC South

The 2024 season is nearly upon us. We have seen plenty of player movement throughout free agency and the draft and have seen some of the rookies play with their new NFL teams through OTAs (granted, in shorts and helmets). Fantasy football managers will soon need to start preparing for their upcoming fantasy drafts, identifying […]


Amari Cooper - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Fantasy Football Draft Targets and Avoids - AFC/NFC North

Fantasy football drafts are just around the corner, which means it is time to start breaking down the offenses that can provide excellent fantasy value in 2024. Every team in football has players that we should target and avoid in fantasy drafts. Over the next few weeks at RotoBaller, we will be breaking down the […]

2024 NFL Free Agency Offensive Line Winners and Losers

The major waves of NFL free agency have come and gone and the NFL Draft is just around the corner. Every team will look dramatically different in a month, but we can still take a step back and analyze the moves that were made in free agency. There were some solid offensive linemen on the […]
