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 […]


Don’t Trust Carson Palmer, Larry Fitzgerald Or Jeremy Maclin in Difficult Week 10 Matchups

No team will be playing with as much motivation this week as the Seattle Seahawks. In a NFC West battle with the Arizona Cardinals, Seattle trails by two games and will need a win at home to stay alive in the division race. Both teams had a bye last week and have been able to […]


Martavis Bryant and DeAngelo Williams Will See Value Increase With Landry Jones At Quarterback

The Pittsburgh Steelers have one of the best fantasy offenses in the NFL and it leads to the most discussion on a weekly basis due to their unfortunate bad luck with injuries. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger suffered a foot injury in Week 4 and missed a month. Running back Le’Veon Bell needed surgery on his right […]


Kirk Cousins, Jordan Reed and DeSean Jackson Should Take Advantage of Weak Saints Defense

You read the title correctly. I'm encouraging you to take the chance on starting Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins in fantasy this week but I have not lost my mind. Cousins will have one of the best matchups of Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints terrible pass defense. New Orleans is in the conversation […]


Teddy Bridgewater Cleared to Play, Stefon Diggs and Kyle Rudolph Become Must-Starts

The Minnesota Vikings passing game has not been very impressive but the status of Teddy Bridgewater is pivotal this week. Bridgewater was undergoing the NFL concussion protocol testing after taking a vicious hit in last week’s win over the St. Louis Rams. Things are looking good for Bridgewater’s availability after he passed the final stage […]


Aaron Rodgers, James Starks, Randall Cobb, James Jones All Ready to Explode Against Lions

The Green Bay Packers have been disappointing over the last month with two consecutive losses and overall lackluster fantasy football performances. No one expected to worry about inserting the top Green Bay weapons in lineups due to how effective the offense typically is. This is the week things will get back on track for the […]


Blake Bortles, DeMarco Murray and Brandon LaFell Are All Week 10 Must-Starts

Week 10 is a very interesting one featuring many pivotal divisional matchups and some pivotal important stars on bye. We’re always looking for the best value in fantasy and there are three position players that aren’t getting enough love entering the weekend. Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles has not been visually impressive in the actual games due […]


Danny Woodhead Benefits from Keenan Allen’s Absence, but Philip Rivers and WRs Struggle vs. Bears

The injury to star wide receiver Keenan Allen caused quite a bit of discussion among fantasy football fanatics about the San Diego Chargers. A big injury to such an important player always creates chaos. We all struggle to find what replacements will benefit most from the stats opening up and rush to add them on […]


With Dion Lewis Out for Season, LeGarrette Blount and James White Become Rosterable

There is outstanding fantasy value for any starting position player on the New England Patriots. Quarterback Tom Brady, tight end Rob Gronkowski, wide receiver Julian Edelman and even kicker Stephen Gostkowski are all studs at the best of their position in fantasy. Dion Lewis was serving as a consistent source of production at running back […]


Antonio Gates, Stevie Johnson, Malcom Floyd Ready to Shine, Ladarius Green Likely Out

The San Diego Chargers have become one of the most fascinating teams to forecast in fantasy this season thanks to Philip Rivers putting up huge numbers on a weekly basis. Things became more interesting after the unfortunate news of star wide receiver Keenan Allen being ruled out of the remainder of the season with a […]


Stefon Diggs, Ronnie Hillman and Brandon Marshall To Play

The injuries and bye weeks are starting to make every fantasy football decision quite pivotal. The regular season is rolling into the heart of the schedule and we’re all fighting for that playoff spot. A couple of injuries have many fearing the possibility of benching a star or two with their status up in the […]


Big Games in Store for Brandon LaFell and LeGarrette Blount?

The New England Patriots are the most powerful offensive unit in the league. They provide fantasy value at just about every position. Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman and Dion Lewis have all been among the best at their respective positions this season. Those names have become somewhat boring as you can’t examine them on […]


Underrated Tight Ends This Week Include Jordan Reed and Heath Miller

The tight end has been the most frustrating position in fantasy football this year. Aside from Rob Gronkowski’s dominance with the New England Patriots, no other tight end has been consistently great. The other tight ends of the NFL are usually hit or miss with the potential for a stinker being equal to the chances […]


Devonta Freeman and Antonio Brown Have Huge Upside This Week

One of the more difficult tasks in fantasy football is trying to figure out which games will see your star players have their best performances. Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown and Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman are two elite fantasy studs that should deliver huge this week. Before Ben Roethlisberger’s knee injury forced […]
