Kacey Kasem - RotoBaller

290 articles

Kacey Kasem's first memories start with football. Born and raised in the Dallas area, sports have always been a passion. A lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan, Kacey grew up watching the '90s glory years (a gift that made up for the heartbreak since). Tony Romo remains her favorite player, and she'll defend the man forever. She's been obsessed with fantasy football since 2011, when she joined her first league (and won). Since 2018, her fantasy football content has been featured at Fantasy Six Pack, Optimus Fantasy, Fighting Chance Fantasy, and The Fantasy Footballers. RotoBaller became her home in 2024. As a fantasy football analyst, Kacey enjoys breaking down draft strategies, ranking kickers each week, and finding deep waiver adds. She is fascinated by the psychology of fantasy leagues (reading other managers and finding ways to get an edge). Her focus is mainly on redraft, but she's been playing dynasty since 2018. Kacey hosts Get Real with Kacey Kasem, a podcast that takes a look behind the scenes of the fantasy football industry. The show is a three-time FSWA finalist for Best Fantasy Sports Podcast. Additionally, Kacey speaks at the Fantasy Football Expo as part of the Women in Fantasy Football panel. She also participates in the Queen’s Classic Draft and organizes the Dallas Scott Fish Bowl Live Draft.

Week 17 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

The holidays are here, and if you're like me, you probably waited until the last minute to start cleaning and running errands before the in-laws show up.

Week 13 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Time to kick it for another installment of the fantasy football kicker streamers, rankings, and starts for Week 13 of the 2025 NFL season. Something I've been waiting to write for a while: no teams are on bye this week! That means we finally get a full pool of kickers to choose from for Week […]

Week 12 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

If you're in a league that utilizes kickers, you'll want to check out the fantasy football kicker streamers, rankings, and starts for Week 12 of the 2025 NFL season. It's been one of those seasons where kicker chaos happens every week, and it's annoying. You thought going into the season, it's the one position you […]

Week 11 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

For those in leagues with kickers, let's look at the fantasy football kicker streamers, rankings, and starts for Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season. Every season, a few kickers go from afterthoughts to weekly starts. Usually, they're the players tied to offenses who can move the ball well, but can't punch it in. If you […]

Week 10 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

It's a brand new week, and we're bringing the fantasy football kicker streamers, rankings, and starts for Week 10 of the 2025 NFL season. Week 9 reminded fantasy managers just how unpredictable kickers can be. Cam Little knocked in a 68-yard field goal to set a new NFL record, breaking Justin Tucker's mark of 66. It […]

Week 9 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Back at it again with our fantasy football kicker streamers, rankings, and starts for Week 9 of the 2025 NFL season. You're probably frustrated with these brutal bye weeks. Putting together decent lineups when half of your roster is on bye (and the other half is injured) can feel like a struggle at this point […]


Trey Benson - Fantasy Football Rankings, RB, NFL Draft Sleepers,

When Will Trey Benson Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 9 (2025)

After losing starting running back James Conner for the year, the Arizona Cardinals needed someone to step up. Trey Benson looked to be that guy, and fantasy managers who stashed him were feeling pretty good about rostering him. Unfortunately, Benson couldn't break out, stalling his Year 2 season after suffering a knee injury that required […]

Week 8 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Welcome back to our fantasy football kicker streamers, rankings, and starts for Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season. Every week brings a new headline or two when it comes to the kicker position. Week 7 was no different. Brandon Aubrey became the first kicker in league history to knock in five field goals of […]


Cam Little - Fantasy Football Kicker Streamers, Waiver Wire Pickups, Rankings

Week 7 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

If you thought the kicker position would be drama-free this season, you were very mistaken. Last week alone, Brandon McManus sat out with a quad injury, Joey Slye and Jason Sanders were banged up, and lots of practice squad kickers are getting reps. And there were plenty more storylines to come out of last week. […]


Chris Godwin - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injuries, DFS

Time to Drop Chris Godwin? Fantasy Football Week 7 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

If you've been holding on to Chris Godwin this season, you're probably at the point where patience has run out. He was supposed to bounce back this year after an injury-derailed 2024 season. Instead, he's been bitten by the injury bug yet again. Fantasy football can be a cruel game sometimes. One year, a guy […]


Khalil Shakir - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Khalil Shakir, Jakobi Meyers, Rashid Shaheed: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 6

For fantasy managers, nothing can be more frustrating than deciding whether or not to start a wide receiver in that gray zone. You know, the type of WR that has all the talent to make you want to start them, but is also inconsistent enough to make you hesitate. Week 6 brings more difficult lineup […]


Chase McLaughlin - Fantasy Football Rankings, Kicker Streamers, NFL Injury News

Week 6 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

I'm from Texas, but I'm out visiting friends in Arizona. Waking up before the sun's up just to watch football on Sunday felt wrong, but I did it anyway. Look, I'm not going to let a silly time zone get in the way of enjoying football. And you're not going to let a kicker get […]


Hunter Henry - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Dallas Goedert, T.J. Hockenson, Hunter Henry: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 5

Some tight ends are finding the end zone at surprising rates, while there are others just trying to carve out a role. Touchdowns have boosted a few names this season, but that kind of production doesn't always stick. With injuries, new quarterback situations, and slow starts clouding the tight end atmosphere, the picks we made […]


Juwan Johnson - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Darren Waller, Juwan Johnson, Brenton Strange: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 5

Every year, there are a few tight ends who come out of nowhere to surprise us. This season, Darren Waller, Juwan Johnson, and Brenton Strange are all names that weren't high on draft boards but have popped early on. They weren't hyped as must-starts in the preseason, more so hyped as under-the-radar sleepers. Now, Waller's […]


Joshua Karty - Fantasy Football Kicker Streamers, Waiver Wire Pickups, Starts

Week 5 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Bye weeks are here, which means Chris Boswell, Brandon McManus, Parker Romo, and Cairo Santos are off in Week 5. For those who love to set it and forget it, you'll have to put in a bit more work this week. If your kicker has a bye, you're probably searching the waiver wire for streaming […]


Jerry Jeudy - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Time to Drop Jerry Jeudy? Fantasy Football Week 5 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

It has been a rough start to the year for Jerry Jeudy. He's getting the volume, but the results have been lackluster in a frustrating Cleveland offense. Drops and shaky quarterback play aren't doing Jeudy any favors. Even when the targets come his way, the production hasn't followed. So what are you supposed to do […]


Nick Chubb - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Time to Drop Nick Chubb? Fantasy Football Week 5 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

If you want your patience tested, join a fantasy football league. Every season, players you were jazzed to draft aren't living up to expectations. Finally, you get to the point where you wonder if it's worth the hassle. That's where we are with Nick Chubb right now. The Texans' backfield looked like his job to […]


Romeo Doubs - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Romeo Doubs, Marquise Brown, Rashid Shaheed: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 4

It happens every season: a few wide receivers hover in that gray area where it's hard to know whether or not you can trust them. One week, they have a brilliant game and seem like sneaky plays. The following week, they disappear. Heading into Week 4, injuries and shifting roles make some surprising names viable […]


Jason Myers - Fantasy Football Rankings, Kicker Streamers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Week 4 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

We're back with another look at fantasy football kickers: the streamers, starts, and tiered rankings for Week 4 of the 2025 season. With three weeks in the books, kickers have been doing more than just chipping in a few points. Some of them are outscoring the position players we took early! Look at Spencer Shrader, […]


Luther Burden III - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Rookies

Sterling Shepard, Luther Burden III, Kavontae Turpin: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 4

Somehow, Sterling Shepard, Luther Burden III, and KaVontae Turpin are all in the fantasy discussion heading into Week 4. Suppose you told me that back in August, I'd have probably dropped the "Sure Jan" gif. But, here we are. Depth receivers you usually ignore suddenly become important when bye weeks and injuries hit. That doesn't […]


Tucker Kraft - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tucker Kraft, Jake Ferguson, David Njoku: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 4

If you've been starting Jake Ferguson or Tucker Kraft, you're probably feeling pretty confident about the tight end position right now. Perhaps not so much with Kraft after a disappointing Week 3, but he remains TE5 through three contests. Ferguson has delivered as the TE1 on the season, gaining consistent volume. David Njoku's situation has […]


Jaxson Dart - Fantasy Football Rankings, Rookie QB Sleepers

Jaxson Dart, Justin Fields, Matthew Stafford: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 4

Your quarterback plans can be derailed quickly in fantasy football. Did you start the season with Joe Burrow and J.J. McCarthy as your signal-callers, only to see them sidelined by injury? Or maybe you drafted a guy you assumed would post big numbers, only to see him rack up single-digit points in every contest. If […]


Troy Franklin - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire

Time to Drop Troy Franklin? Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

Some players test your patience every week, and Troy Franklin looks like he's headed in that direction. One week, you feel like you hit on the waiver gem of the season; the next week, you're left disappointed with a two-catch, eight-yard day, wondering why you started him in your flex. Franklin is showing up and […]


Stefon Diggs - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Time to Drop Stefon Diggs? Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

If you drafted Stefon Diggs this summer, it probably felt like you were getting a steal. He wasn't going early anymore, and managers were hoping that the post-ACL surgery version of Diggs could outproduce his ADP. Through three weeks, that hasn't shaken out. The veteran hasn't hit 60 yards in a game and has yet […]


Kaleb Johnson - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Sleepers, Injury News

Time to Drop Kaleb Johnson? Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

Heading into Week 4, we're starting to gather which rookies deserve the spotlight and which are just taking up space. Every season, fantasy managers rush to draft the hyped up rookie, and it doesn't always work out. Kaleb Johnson has been that running back through three weeks. He came in with a strong buzz, with […]


Jerry Jeudy - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Time to Drop Jerry Jeudy? Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

There's nothing more frustrating in fantasy football than when a player you took to lead your team starts the season slowly. You drafted Jerry Jeudy to be your WR1 or WR2, not to cause weekly headaches. Now we're in Week 4, and he has yet to find the end zone. Every time it seems like […]

Time to Drop Jonnu Smith? Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

Three weeks into the season, we've seen plenty of ups and downs at the tight end position. Doesn't that seem like something we say every year? Managers want stability from their starting tight end, yet there are only a handful of guys who can give you that. Jonnu Smith has been a tight end keeping […]
