Dede Westbrook Catches Touchdown Against Eagles

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook caught two passes for 31 yards and a touchdown. Westbrook was targeted six times, and he also gained nine yards on one carry. While the touchdown helped salvage his day from a fantasy perspective, Westbrook's production has been uneven lately, making the second-year receiver a difficult player to trust […]

D.J. Chark Continues To See Increased Usage

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark continued to play a larger role in the Jaguars offense in Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Eagles. Chark recorded four receptions for the second consecutive week, finishing with 41 yards. Chark was targeted five times. With the Jaguars struggling lately and a bye week coming up, it wouldn't […]

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon caught a team-high seven passes for 83 yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. He added seven rushing yards on two carries. With Carlos Hyde in the backfield and Leonard Fournette (hamstring) possibly back after the bye week, Yeldon's upside as a runner is limited, but Sunday showed how […]

Carlos Hyde A Non-Factor In Jaguars Debut

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Carlos Hyde rushed for 11 yards on six carries in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. He failed to bring in both of his targets. With Leonard Fournette (hamstring) potentially returning after the bye week, Hyde owners are rightfully confused about what to do with him. What's clear is that he's now […]

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles didn't get benched in Sunday's loss to the Eagles, so that already made it a better performance than his Week 7 outing against the Texans.

Ben Simmons Inefficient In Win Over Charlotte

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons had an uncharacteristically poor performance from the field, shooting 5-for-20 in Saturday's win over the Charlotte Hornets. Simmons added in 12 rebounds, but ended up with just three assists. The Sixers play the Hawks on Monday, who allow the eighth-most assists in the NBA this year. Simmons should look […]

Nicolas Batum Held To Two Points

Charlotte Hornets small forward Nicolas Batum scored just two points on 1-for-5 shooting in Saturday's loss to the 76ers.

Week 8 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

Another week of NFL action is upon us! Week 8 is notable because it's the last week before the NFL's trade deadline, so you want to win just in case things end up changing around the league and put up in a bad position for Week 9, as new players start to acclimate to their […]

Fantasy Deep Dive Week 2: Nikola Vucevic

It wasn't supposed to be this way. The Magic have been a fairly competitive 2-3 team and center Nikola Vucevic, who we assumed as just keeping the seat warm for Mohamed Bamba, has been on fire as of late. There's Nikola revolution in the NBA right now as Nikola Jokic and Nikola Mirotic play stellar […]

The Tape Tells All - Kerryon Johnson's Week 7 Performance

The Detroit Lions aren't known for their prowess as a running team. Since Barry Sanders retired, here are the players who have led the team in rushing yards in a season: Greg Hill, James Stewart, Shawn Bryson, Kevin Jones, Kevin Smith, Jahvid Best, Mikel Leshoure, Reggie Bush, Joique Bell, Ameer Abdullah, and Theo Riddick.

New Orleans Pelicans forward E'Twaun Moore scored 15 points on 5-for-10 shooting in Friday's win over the Brooklyn Nets.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Shabazz Napier is already turning into a strong scoring option off the Brooklyn bench. On Friday against the Pelicans, Napier scored 16 points on 6-for-11 shooting and added a pair of rebounds, an assist, and a steal. He could be worth a look by fantasy owners needing production in points and […]

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Held To Four Points

Brooklyn Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson has now played two games since returning from a groin injury and while he hasn't put up huge scoring numbers, his presence has helped the Nets out. Still, a four-point, 2-for-7-shooting line isn't something fantasy owners want to see, though it did come with six rebounds, a block, and a […]

Jarrett Allen Held To Seven Points

Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen scored seven points on 3-for-6 shooting in Friday's loss to the Pelicans.
