Second-Year NBA Players Who Won't Breakout

An NBA player's second season can be a big time when it comes to breaking out. Year One is about learning the game, and that second time around is when we often start to see a player show what they can become. It can also be a time when players who struggled as rookies continue […]

Byron Pringle (WR, KC) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Tyreek Hill still out and Sammy Watkins now dealing with a hamstring injury, the WR1 job in Kansas City is temporarily up in the air. Based on Sunday's game, rookie Byron Pringle could be in line for an expanded role moving […]

Gardner Minshew (QB, JAC) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We've now reached the point of the season where the sample size on Jacksonville Jaguars rookie quarterback Gardner Minshew is big enough to justify him being a roster option in single quarterback fantasy leagues. Minshew had his best game as a passer […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6

Time flies in the NFL. It seems like the season just started, but now five weeks of football action are behind us. Sunday was a day headlined by some of the league's heavy hitters. The top 11 scoring wide receivers from Thursday and the Sunday noon slate were 70 percent owned or better, so this […]

Demaryius Thomas (WR, NYJ) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: New York Jets -- yes, that's right, New York Jets -- wide receiver Demaryius Thomas has had a roller coaster couple of years. He started 2018 on the only team he's never known, the Denver Broncos. Then he was traded to Houston, […]

James O'Shaughnessy Tears ACL

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end James O'Shaughnessy tore his ACL and will miss the remainder of the 2019 NFL season. O'Shaughnessy's fifth NFL season was off to a good start, as he'd grabbed 14 passes for 153 yards and two touchdowns in five games. Expect more Geoff Swaim moving forward, though Swaim is unlikely be fantasy […]

Josh Rosen (QB, MIA) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: A thing that I'm always hesitant to admit is that I'm still a Josh Rosen believer. His NFL career's gotten off to a rough start, but I still think there's something there. The Dolphins made the right call replacing Ryan Fitzpatrick with Rosen […]

James O'Shaughnessy Continues To See Expanded Role

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end James O'Shaughnessy caught three passes for 57 yards in Sunday's loss to the Carolina Panthers. He was targeted four times and has now seen four or more targets in four of Jacksonville's five games. O'Shaughnessy isn't quite to the level where he should be started in fantasy leagues, but he may […]

Dede Westbrook Brings In Seven Catches

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook caught seven passes for 82 yards in Jacksonville's Week 5 loss to the Carolina Panthers. He tied for the team lead with 11 targets. Westbrook's lost his grip on Jacksonville's top receiver role with the emergence of D.J. Chark, which has limited his production this season. He's still a […]

D.J. Chark Catches Pair Of Touchdowns

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark opened the year with a touchdown in each of the first three games, but failed to find the end zone in Week 4. He got things back on track in Week 5, though, catching eight passes for 164 yards and a pair of touchdowns while being targeted 11 times. […]

Leonard Fournette Has Another Strong Outing

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette had 23 carries for 108 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Carolina Panthers. He also caught four passes for 29 yards. It wasn't a 200-yard game like he had in Week 4, but it was another solid performance for the team's bell cow back. It's also […]

Gardner Minshew Has First 300 Yard Game

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew was 26-for-44 for 374 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's loss to the Carolina Panthers. It was Minshew's first game with 300 or more passing yards. Carolina wasn't a great matchup for the Jaguars, but Minshew was able to find his receivers and make plays. This might not be a […]

Darren Fells Catches Two Touchdowns

Houston Texans tight end Darren Fells caught two passes for 20 yards in Sunday's win over the Atlanta Falcons, with both catches going for touchdowns. Fells now has three touchdown catches this season, but he also has just nine catches, with five of them coming in one game. Outside of that game, Fells has four […]

DeAndre Hopkins Solid Against Falcons

While it wasn't the kind of blow-up game that many hoped was coming, Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins still put up solid numbers in Sunday's win over the Atlanta Falcons. Hopkins caught seven of his eight targets for 88 yards and failed to find the end zone. While that's a little concerning when you […]

Keke Coutee Finally Emerges In Week 5

Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee hasn't done much this season, but against the Falcons on Sunday the second-year receiver had his best game of 2019. Coutee caught three passes for 72 yards, including a 51-yard reception. It was a solid game for Coutee, but it also requires some context as Houston was without wide […]

Will Fuller Catches Three Touchdowns

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller's gotten off to a slow start to the season, but he shook that slow start off on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, catching 14 passes for 217 yards and three touchdowns. It was a wild, wild game for Fuller, who hadn't had 100 yards or a touchdown yet this […]

Duke Johnson Continues To Play Secondary Role

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson continues to be misused by the Texans. On Sunday against the Falcons, Johnson had nine carries for 59 yards and caught his only target, an eight-yard catch. Johnson's 6.6 yards per carry were far more than Carlos Hyde's 2.9, but Hyde had 21 carries to Johnson's nine. The Texans […]

Carlos Hyde Finds End Zone

Houston Texans running back Carlos Hyde had 60 rushing yards on 21 carries in Sunday's win over the Atlanta Falcons. He ran for a touchdown and also failed to bring in his only target. It was another inefficient game for Hyde, but he continues to be the main guy in this Texans backfield, with Duke […]

Deshaun Watson Has Monster Game Against Falcons

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson was on fire against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, throwing for 426 yards and five touchdowns while going 28-for-33. Watson also added 47 rushing yards on four carries. After a season that's seen Watson be pretty inconsistent, Sunday's game might have been a turning point for this Texans offense. Watson […]

D.J. Chark Could Be In For Down Week

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark has become the de facto No. 1 option for the Jaguars in the passing game this year, catching three touchdowns through four games. That's more touchdowns than the defense he faces in Week 5 -- the Carolina Panthers -- has allowed to all the wide receivers they've faced this […]

Dede Westbrook Has Tough Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook is trending up, but in Week 5 he faces a Carolina Panthers Defense that has been good against the pass this year and has allowed just two receiving touchdowns to wide receivers. Westbrook's lower-than-expected volume this season and the emergence of D.J. Chark have cut into his production, and […]

Leonard Fournette Should Be Focal Point Against Panthers

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette ran for 225 yards against Denver in Week 4. He won't do that against the Panthers in Week 5, but he should once again see a heavy workload and wind up with a strong fantasy performance. Ryquell Armstead saw some extra work in Denver, but with altitude not an […]

Gardner Minshew Has Tough Week 5 Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew faces a Panthers Defense in Week 5 that's allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks and held Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson to no touchdowns and under 200 yards passing in Week 4. That's not a great sign for Minshew's fantasy viability, and he's a low-end QB2 at best in […]

Rookie Running Back Progress Report

We're basically a quarter of the way into the NFL season (unless you're a Jets or 49ers fan, in which case your team isn't 25 percent done with football). The quarter mark is an interesting time, because we don't really have enough of a sample size to make real judgments about players yet, but we have enough of […]

Jordan Akins Not A Fantasy Starter In Week 5

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins had two touchdown receptions in Week 3. He then had three catches for 21 yards against the Panthers in Week 4 and now faces a Falcons team that's allowing the ninth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season. The Falcons haven't given up a single touchdown to a […]

Keke Coutee's Lack Of Touches Should Worry Fantasy Owners

Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee is becoming an afterthought in Houston. Even with Kenny Stills (hamstring) missing a good bit of Houston's Week 4 loss to the Panthers, Coutee was only able to muster 21 yards of offense, finishing with one carry and one reception. What Coutee is good at -- making plays near […]

Week 5 Could Be Will Fuller's Breakout Week

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller hasn't found the end zone yet this season, but that could change in Week 5 against the Falcons if Kenny Stills (hamstring) is unable to go. Fuller's best games have come when the Texans have just had him and fellow wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins as receiving threats; Houston currently […]

DeAndre Hopkins Still Needs To Be In Your Lineups

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins isn't living up to his usual standards this season, ranking outside of the top 25 at his position and failing to record a touchdown or a 100-yard game over the last three games. But talent and opportunity matter, and Hopkins has both of those things heading into a Week […]
