TE Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 8 (2024)

How predictable has the tight end position been for fantasy this season? Last week, ahead of Monday Night Football, Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry were top 5 options. The trio of Ja'Tavion Sanders, Noah Fant, and Noah Gray finished inside the top 12. Noah Gray was the Chiefs' top fantasy option at tight end. Let […]

QB Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 8 (2024)

It's officially Week 8, and the hero we needed may soon be here. Before we break down this week's starts and sits at the quarterback position, we have to talk about injuries. Last week, the most significant and perhaps most ironic was the noncontact one suffered by Deshaun Watson. You know what that means? Jameis […]

Brock Bowers - Fantasy Football Rankings, TE, NFL Rookies, Draft Sleepers

TE Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

Has there been a more disappointing position in fantasy football than we have witnessed from the tight-end position in 2024? Only five tight ends thus far are averaging 10 or more fantasy points per game heading into Week 7. It seems like every year, the tight-end position is a fantasy wasteland. This season, it seems […]


Baker Mayfield - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

QB Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

Once again, the quarterback position has kept fantasy managers on their toes. Last week, rookies Caleb Williams (29.8), Bo Nix (21.7), and Drake Maye (21.5) were among the top 10 in fantasy production at the quarterback position. Meanwhile, some previously trusted fantasy contributors, such as Kirk Cousins, Kyler Murray, and Dak Prescott, let fantasy managers […]


Mike Evans - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

WR Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

The fantasy football landscape this season resembles the Billboard Top 40, as the hits keep coming. Except here, when I say Top 40 songs, I think of 1996 when the "Macarena" reached number one on the charts. It stayed at the top of the charts for 14 weeks and here's hoping the hits to the […]


Tony Pollard - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

RB Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

It's hard to believe that we are already entering Week 7 of the NFL calendar. Before Monday Night Football, Sean Tucker, Tyrone Tracy Jr., and Tyler Allgeier were among the top 10 running backs for the week, proving that anything can truly happen on any given Sunday. In each of the past two weeks, fantasy […]

Breece Hall - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

RB Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 6 (2024)

It's that time of week again when we examine the matchups at the running back position to help us set our weekly lineups.  It's hard to believe that we are entering Week 6 of the NFL season, a week in which Kyren Williams, Aaron Jones, and De'Von Achane are all on their bye weeks as […]


Terry McLaurin - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

WR Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 6 (2024)

If you are like me, you are in a toxic relationship with fantasy football. This season, more than any, reminds me of that scene in Brooklyn 99 when Jake Peralta and Rosa Diaz have to prove they are dirty to Melanie Hawkins to infiltrate her gang. Adrian Pimento becomes relatable to fantasy managers as he […]

Dynasty Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - October 2024 Market Report

In other words, it's the Dynasty Monthly Report, Trick or Trick edition. Luckily, our team of RotoBaller experts, which includes Brandon Murchison (@RotoSuperstar), Jorden Hill […]


Michael Pittman Jr. - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

WR Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 5 (2024)

If you have a receiver on your fantasy football roster with two feet and a heartbeat, you can ill afford to sit them even if they have just one foot. Thanks to the early-season injuries, we were born into the bye weeks, molded by them. It feels like we’ve been preparing for them for weeks. […]


Chuba Hubbard - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Zach Charbonnet - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL DFS and Betting Picks

RB Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 4 (2024)

As we enter week 4 of the fantasy football season, fantasy managers everywhere are trying to determine whether their players are contenders or pretenders. One thing we have learned is that Sam Darnold is, indeed, not a pretender. Who else is emerging, and who is losing the trust of fantasy football managers? There are many […]


DJ Moore - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

WR Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 4 (2024)

Week 3 of the NFL season has some explaining to do. But I need to apologize to those who started Rasheed Shaheed last week. Although he managed 105 air yards on five targets, sometimes the deep shots did not hit. We also need to acknowledge that Malik Nabers has earned must-start status every week from […]

Jordan Mason - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire, Draft Sleepers, Draft Rankings

RB Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 3 (2024)

Injuries did not spare the running back position in Week 2. On top of losing Christian McCaffrey for at least four weeks, we also saw Joe Mixon go down with an ankle injury, and Isiah Pacheco ended up getting folded up like an accordion and having his right leg bent in a way it was […]


Brandon Aiyuk - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News

WR Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 3 (2024)

With injuries having ravaged the wide receiver position in fantasy, it's getting to the point that if you have a receiver on your bench, and they are healthy, you are likely starting them here in Week 3. As we head into Week 3, fantasy managers will be scrambling to fill the voids left behind by A.J. […]

It's time again to talk about those running backs we are starting here in Week 2. I know you've been hurt before, but we have to try and love again if we are going to make it in these fantasy football streets. Last week, Zamir White, Javonte Williams, and Raheem Mostert broke your hearts, and […]


Drake London - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

WR Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 2 (2024)

After one week of the NFL season, we find ourselves with as many questions as we have answers. Perhaps the most prominent issue fantasy managers are coming to grips with this week is the poor passing performances across the board, where wide receivers were more like wide deceivers. Heading into "Monday Night Football," the 33 […]

Dynasty Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - September 2024 Market Report

Week one of the 2024 NFL season kicks off this week, which means many may believe that dynasty football takes a back seat to its sister leagues. That is not the case. More now than ever, we will see the variance in the dynasty report, week-to-week, and month-to-month. Luckily, our team of RotoBaller experts, which […]
