Week 15 Busts: Matt Ryan, Matt Forte, Martavis Bryant

For most fantasy owners, Week 15 is the semi-finals of the fantasy playoffs. Each decision is pivotal and one bad move could cost you your entire season. There are three players with great name value that can be the reason for your demise if you attempt to trust them this week. The theory that you […]


Week 15 Booms: John Brown, Golden Tate, Jeremy Maclin

The wide receiver position offers a lot of value and depth as we go towards the home stretch of the fantasy playoffs. The obvious move is to start your studs but the WR3 and flex positions are more up in the air and dependent on the matchup rather than the name. There are three wide […]


Week 14 WR Outlooks: Michael Crabtree, Doug Baldwin, Brandon LaFell

The matchups this week are providing difficult decisions needing to be made in a crucial fantasy week for most. Wide receivers are tricky to plan out because of how many credible options there are. Unlike quarterback, running back and tight end, the wide receiver position will give you enough depth to have to break down […]


Week 14 Lineup Busts? Matt Ryan, Philip Rivers, Derek Carr

The quarterback position will be pivotal in Week 14. Most fantasy playoff runs are starting here and you can’t possibly survive going with a poor quarterback. The position is responsible for such a large percentage of points that you have to make the best decision. A popular belief among fantasy circles is that you should […]


Week 14 Booms: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Jameis Winston

The quarterback position has been unpredictable in 2015, and many fantasy football fans have turned to streaming versus sticking with one player consistently. That game plan definitely has its positives and this week is no different. With the playoffs approaching for many leagues, there are two quarterbacks that could provide great results for your pivotal […]


Martavis Bryant Has Quietly Become A WR1

Is it possible for one team to have two true elite fantasy wide receivers? The Pittsburgh Steelers are certainly making the case for it with the stellar production by Antonio Brown and Martavis Bryant. The dynamic duo are the only pair of wide receivers averaging more than fifteen standard fantasy points per game. We all know Brown is […]


Fantasy Fallers: Kirk Cousins and Tyrod Taylor

The game plan of streaming quarterbacks from week-to-week can lead to great success with the correct research but it can also be the reason for fantasy heartbreak. It is one thing to lose knowing you had Tom Brady or Cam Newton at the quarterback position. Bad games happen. That’s the nature of sports. You can’t […]


Week 13 Booms: Martavis Bryant, T.Y. Hilton, Donte Moncrief

There are very few NFL games that can provide fantasy value across the board. We’re usually lucky to get two or three studs but the rare game that provides fantasy value for just about every player on both teams is a gift. Consider it an early Christmas present on Sunday Night Football when the Pittsburgh […]


Fantasy Sleepers: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Eric Decker, Rueben Randle, Shane Vereen

The battle of New York on Sunday will pit the Jets against the Giants in a rare game between the stadium mates. While the talking points and bragging rights for the game result are providing great entertainment, the fantasy side of things is equally exciting. Both teams should score enough points to give great fantasy […]


Running Back Outlooks: LeGarrette Blount and David Johnson

The matchup game is always a chore when planning a weekly fantasy football lineup. The running back position is the biggest pain because of how inconsistent the production has been this season. You need to channel Miss Cleo to properly forecast what scenarios will lead to a big performance from a RB2 or RB3 when […]


Week 13 Running Back Busts: DeMarco Murray and Lamar Miller

The crunch time of the fantasy football season is here. For most standard fantasy leagues, this is the final week of the regular season. Many of us are in a “win or go home” situation and will need a victory to make the fantasy playoffs. The decisions of starting and sitting the correct players are […]


Week 13 Tight End Outlooks: Travis Kelce & Gary Barnidge

The tight end position has not been this perplexing in years. New England Patriots superstar Rob Gronkowski has been the only must-start tight end all season, but he will most likely miss Sunday’s game with a knee injury. The former elite Jimmy Graham struggled in his first season with the Seattle Seahawks before being ruled out for […]


Jeremy Maclin Back On The Rise, Spencer Ware Potential Fantasy Stud?

The Kansas City Chiefs have saved their season and look to have a great chance at a wild card playoff spot. After a disappointing 1-5 start to the season and losing star running back Jamaal Charles for the remainder of the year, Kansas City is now on a five-game winning streak. They control their own […]


Rob Gronkowski Should Return, But Add Scott Chandler; Don’t Give Up On Brandon LaFell Just Yet

The fantasy story of the New England Patriots gets more confusing and intriguing each week. After losing fantasy studs Dion Lewis and Julian Edelman for the season, Tom Brady has to work his magic with significantly less talent. Sunday night put a major scare into Brady and Patriots fans when superstar tight end Rob Gronkowski […]


Can You Trust Brian Hoyer, Josh McCown and Tom Brady In Week 12?

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is one star that every fantasy football player loves to start. Brady is elite at his position and typically put up points in a most fun fashion. With Thanksgiving so fresh in our memories, Brady is the glorious turkey at the center of the dinner table. Brady is the […]


Jordan Reed and Delanie Walker Are Must Starts at Tight End Position

Have the tight ends of the NFL all gathered together and concocted a plan to punish fantasy football fans? Probably not but the highly inconsistent play from the position can lead to conspiracy theories. No tight end is truly trustworthy on a week-to-week basis but Rob Gronkowski. With Gronkowski’s high salary and matchup against the […]


Danny Woodhead and Antonio Gates Are Best Values on Chargers, Philip Rivers Not As Much

The San Diego Chargers offense has been dismantled with the loss of Keenan Allen. Quarterback Philip Rivers was torching the opposing defenses and established himself as a QB1 for the first half of the season. After losing his top target Allen, Rivers has looked rather ordinary and is no longer a trustworthy fantasy quarterback. Rivers […]


Lamar Miller, DeAngelo Williams, Latavius Murray All In For Rough Games?

The running back position continues to get more frustrating as each week passes by. The already limited options at the position have diminished as Devonta Freeman has been ruled out, and Charcandrick West is expected to miss his game in Week 12. There are three fantasy relevant running backs that should be benched at any […]


Terrible Performances Prove Eagles Need Sam Bradford Back, Mark Sanchez Limits Fantasy Value

We all had something to be thankful for on Thanksgiving Thursday, except the Philadelphia Eagles. During the first game of the traditional NFL turkey day schedule, the Eagles put out one of the more embarrassing performances by any team all season. The Detroit Lions destroyed Philadelphia 45-14 and forced the Eagles to fall to 4-7. […]


Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Golden Tate Dominate on Thanksgiving

The Detroit Lions were one of the worst teams in the NFL during the first half of the season. Their record was 1-7 and they were proving to have no players worthy of starting in fantasy aside from Calvin Johnson. Despite his greatness, Johnson was even hit or miss for the early portion of the […]


Can You Trust Kamar Aiken or Crockett Gilmore With Joe Flacco and Justin Forsett Out?

The Baltimore Ravens are having the most disappointing season in the NFL. Despite being a consistent playoff participant for years, Baltimore is nowhere near contention this season and has a 3-7 record. The Ravens have suffered heartbreaking defeats to opposing teams but the biggest losses have come in the form of injuries. Rookie Breshad Perriman […]


Brock Osweiler Starting Over Peyton Manning in Week 12, Good For Broncos Fantasy Stars?

The Denver Broncos have announced that Brock Osweiler will start at quarterback in Week 12 against the New England Patriots in place of Peyton Manning. It remains unsure whether this decision was made due to the injury concerns regarding Manning, the effective play of Osweiler or a combination of both. Osweiler delivered the best quarterback […]


Don’t Trust Jordan Reed or Martellus Bennett at Tight End This Week

The tight end position is the most risky to forecast unless you have Rob Gronkowski or Greg Olsen on your roster. The rest of us are struggling with hit-or-miss performances each week from our tight ends. Each week is a gamble with the matchups playing the biggest roles in making an informed decision. There are […]


With Limited Snaps for Danny Amendola, Brandon LaFell Will Benefit Most From Julian Edelman's Injury

Tom Brady is the clear favorite in the MVP race due to his incredible work this season. The passing game of the New England Patriots has been the best source of fantasy production all year with Brady, Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman and Dion Lewis benefiting greatly in the first half of the fantasy schedule. With […]


Ladarius Green Not Optimistic About Playing; Trust in Antonio Gates

The San Diego Chargers are struggling to keep their offensive talent on the field to help Philip Rivers. The passing game and quarterback play of Rivers has been tremendous this season but it has resulted in few wins. San Diego will look to improve their record against the Kansas City Chiefs defense. The Chargers will […]


Matt Hasselbeck at QB: Good for Andre Johnson, Bad for Donte Moncrief

The Indianapolis Colts passing game is in a state of disarray when it comes to fantasy thanks to the injury of quarterback Andrew Luck. Indianapolis’ star quarterback is expected to miss at least the next month because of a lacerated kidney and veteran Matt Hasselbeck will start for the foreseeable future. The three Colts wide […]


Mike Evans and Calvin Johnson Both Have Huge Potential in Week 11

The wide receiver position is always interesting to forecast who will deliver the best performance on any given week. Julio Jones and Antonio Brown are the most consistent sources but just about every other wide receiver can be a hit or miss depending on the schedule. Two specific receivers that are borderline WR1 plays most […]


Charcandrick West and Darren McFadden Poised to Exploit Matchups

Kansas City Chiefs running back Charcandrick West has emerged as a great option at running back over the last month. Following the heartbreaking season-ending injury to Jamaal Charles, West has become the starting running back and is giving great fantasy production at the position. West is averaging 21.7 standard fantasy points per game over the […]


Texans Shut Down Andy Dalton, A.J. Green, Jeremy Hill and Giovani Bernard, Time to Worry About Bengals?

The Cincinnati Bengals have been one of the most fantasy-relevant teams during the first half of the season. After secretly hoping they would see a decline and miss the playoffs, we were starting to fall for the trap of believing in their 8-0 start to the season. Week 10 saw the Bengals lose all trust […]


Carson Palmer Becomes Matchup Proof, Jay Cutler Trustworthy?

The quarterback position has led to many fascinating stories in fantasy football this season. Tom Brady has returned to the top of the position. Peyton Manning has become impossible to start. Derek Carr, Tyrod Taylor and Marcus Mariota are progressing. Joe Flacco, Matt Ryan and Ryan Tannehill are regressing. The quarterbacks are all over the […]
