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

Week 2 is officially in the books and offenses continue to struggle (unless you’re a Bills or Chiefs fan). In terms of offensive line play, things looked similar to Week 1. Plenty of teams struggled and offensive scoring remained down. There were only two very notable injuries with significance in Week 2, the Chargers lost […]


Top Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 3: Jimmy Garoppolo, Tua Tagovailoa, Carson Wentz, Jared Goff

Is Jahan Dotson A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 2?

Week 1 is in the books, and we finally have some worthwhile data to parse through to determine the moves we need to make to win our fantasy league.

Chris Godwin - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Is Chris Godwin Healthy or Injured? Will Godwin be Active in Week 2?

When healthy, Chris Godwin is one of the best wide receivers in the NFL and a perfect fit with Tom Brady as his primary slot receiver. Unfortunately, he suffered an ACL injury at the end of the 2021 season, putting the start of 2022 in doubt. Godwin progressed steadily throughout the summer, working off to […]


Trey Lance - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

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

After months of buildup, the first week of the 2022 NFL season has come and gone. Similar to years past, it felt like defenses ruled the first week of the season.

Should I Start Mitch Trubisky in SuperFlex Leagues? Week 1 Fantasy Football QB Outlook

Week 1 of the NFL season has finally arrived, but there is still plenty of time to scour the waiver wire and tinker with lineups before the games kick off on Sunday.
