Ryan balances his data-driven insights with his intuitive situational feel, having established himself as a trusted voice for fantasy players looking to gain an edge each week. His work has been recognized across multiple sports media platforms such as RotoBaller and SB Nation.

NCAA Basketball: Feast Week Recap, Reactions, and Notes

Feast Week. One of the more underrated weeks in the sports calendar, with multiple NFL games spanning Thanksgiving and Black Friday, along with a ton of major college basketball around the clock. The 2023-24 college hoops season is now in full swing, as teams make it through their early season MTEs and are now facing […]


Overrated and Underrated College Basketball Teams - Reviewing the AP Poll For Week 4

It's been three weeks since the 2023-24 college basketball season tipped off, which means feast week has come and gone. Multiple exhilarating tournaments occurred between some powerful teams that led to a little shake-up in the new top-25 for Week 4. There is a new No. 1, while four of the top five teams all […]


Isaiah Likely - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Isaiah Likely - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12 (2023)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1 ANALYSIS: With the unfortunate injury to Mark Andrews in Week 11 that placed him on IR, the door is now ajar for second-year tight end Isaiah Likely to step up and fill his massive shoes. The 23-year-old from Coastal Carolina came into the league with […]


Josh Downs - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Josh Downs - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Flex / WR3 ANALYSIS: Downs has subtly been one of the best rookie receivers this season. Despite being taken as the 12th WR off the board in the NFL draft this past April, he currently ranks No. 5 among rookies in receiving yards while playing mostly […]


Gabriel Davis - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Gabe Davis - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Flex / WR3 ANALYSIS: While Davis looked like the prototypical post-hype sleeper in fantasy to start the year with touchdowns in four of the first five games, he has unfortunately gone back to his usual boom-bust ways that plagued him all of last year. After dropping […]


Miles Sanders - fantasy football rankings news NFL DFS lineup picks

Miles Sanders - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Bench in leagues with 14 or fewer teams POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4 ANALYSIS: Sanders has been one of fantasy football's biggest disappointments this season. The Penn State product was taken at an ADP of RB19 in PPR drafts this offseason and currently ranks as the RB48. His presumed backup to start the year -- […]


DK Metcalf - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

DK Metcalf - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12 (2023)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 ANALYSIS: The Seattle Seahawks offense has struggled with consistency in 2023, especially at the quarterback position, and wide receiver DK Metcalf has seen his numbers drop as a result. The 2020 second-round pick is the WR28 in half-PPR formats and only has two receiving touchdowns […]

Overrated and Underrated College Basketball Teams - Reviewing the AP Poll For Week 3

Feast Week has arrived, and with it comes the best week of the college basketball regular season. Before we can get to that action though, another week of the 2023-24 came and went, with quite a bit of movement in the AP poll.  Two teams dropped from the rankings, as another pair entered the fold. […]


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

Terry McLaurin - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 11 (2023)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: High-end WR2 ANALYSIS: "Scary" Terry McLaurin has been a steady pass-catching presence for young quarterback Sam Howell this season. He currently checks in as the WR20 in half-PPR, which is almost right on par with his 2023 ADP (WR22). The Ohio State product hasn't had many […]


Raheem Mostert - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Raheem Mostert - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 11 (2023)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 8+ team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: High-end RB2 ANALYSIS: Raheem Mostert has been the biggest overachiever in fantasy football this season, and it isn't close. The former San Francisco 49er is the RB2 in half & full PPR through nine weeks, which includes the bye last week. He sits at No. 9 […]


Brian Robinson Jr. - Fantasy Football Rankings Running Backs, Waiver Wire Sleepers, NFL DFS Picks

Brian Robinson Jr. - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 11

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: The Commanders' top running back has been one of fantasy football's quiet revelations this year. After being taken in the eighth round on average in 12-team leagues, Brian Robinson Jr. has plowed his way to RB6 through 10 weeks. He has two weekly RB1 […]

When Is Matthew Stafford Coming Back: Is Stafford Returning and Playing in Week 11

Many had already written off Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford coming into the 2023 season. After a disastrous 5-12 season a year ago in which Stafford only played eight games due to a neck injury, it appeared as though the Rams' strategy of trading away every pick they own for a Super Bowl was […]

NCAA Basketball: Rapid Reaction To A Huge Night In College Hoops

Week 2 of the college basketball season brings some elite matchups every year. CBB fans can always count on the Champions Classic providing some early-season fireworks, with four of the sport’s best programs going at it - Duke, Michigan State, Kentucky, and Kansas.   These weren’t the only big matchups of note, as the Gavitt Tipoff […]


Oumar Ballo - College Basketball Rankings, NCAA CBB DFS Lineup Picks

Overrated and Underrated College Basketball Teams - Reviewing the AP Poll For Week 2

It’s only been one week of the college basketball season and we’ve already seen some ridiculous results. Two top-five teams have already fallen, as two more have dropped from the preseason AP top-25. It’s already been an electric season and we are barely 5% of the way through. The first real AP poll of the […]

NCAA Men's Basketball Darkhorse National Championship Contenders

With the college basketball season only a week old, it’s still much too early to tell which teams are going to live up to the hype and which will prove to be fraudulent.  The NCAA tournament is the most unpredictable tournament in sports which is what makes it so exhilarating year after year. Only one […]


DK Metcalf - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS and Betting Picks

Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 10: Zay Flowers, DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett

As crazy as it may seem, the NFL season is already into the second half of its new 18-week schedule. For fantasy managers, this means starting to plan for the playoffs, as weekly matchups become that much more important. Three players that managers have had trouble with this season are Zay Flowers, DK Metcalf, and […]

Underrated College Basketball Teams - Reviewing Preseason NCAA CBB Rankings (2023)

The 2023-24 season has now tipped off, with a full slate of (mostly) cupcake games this week before some intriguing matchups in Week 2. To quote the great Jon Rothstein, It's time to "GRAB YOUR NITROGLYCERIN PILLS." Everyone loves to talk about which teams are overrated or overhyped coming into the year (which we also […]


Alijah Martin - College Basektball Rankings, NCAA CBB DFS Lineup Picks

The Most Overrated College Basketball Teams Heading into the 2023-24 Season

It's truly the best time of the year. NFL football is in full swing, the holiday season is right around the corner, and college basketball is finally back! With all of the preseason content being released over the past month, countless lists of top players, conference winners, and best bets are being thrown around everywhere. […]

Power Ranking ACC Teams: 2023-24 College Basketball Season Preview

The ACC had a major down year in 2022-23, but there’s been some buzz around the conference heading into this season given the caliber of returning players, stud newbies, and coaching changes. Three programs have new faces leading their teams into a different era of ACC basketball this year. A couple others have experienced similar […]

Ranking Naismith Player of the Year Candidates - Top Five Players For 2023-24 College Basketball

It’s almost to end of October, which means a couple of things in the sporting world. Major League Baseball is nearing its final conclusion for the 2023 season, teams in the NFL are starting to show their true colors as contenders and pretenders emerge, and basketball is right around the corner.  The NBA has already […]


Kareem Hunt - Fantasy Football Rankings

Is Kareem Hunt A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 7? Waiver Wire Outlook

Another week came and went in this unforgiving sport, as more and more fantasy studs found themselves on the injury report. Last week it was Justin Jefferson and De'Von Achane, this week it's Justin Fields, Christian McCaffrey, Kyren Williams, David Montgomery, Deebo Samuel, and Trevor Lawrence. I genuinely cannot remember another time when this many […]


Tyjae Spears - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Is Tyjae Spears A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 6? Waiver Wire Outlook

Week 5 was a big week for bounce-back performances, as guys like Breece Hall and Ja'Marr Chase went absolutely nuclear after looking very pedestrian through the first quarter of the season. Unfortunately, it was also a big week for injuries with multiple fantasy studs going down and likely to miss a decent amount of time. […]


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

Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 5: Christian Kirk, Najee Harris, and Breece Hall

Week 5 in the National Football League is rapidly approaching, and that means getting those fantasy lineups locked n' loaded. It's that time of the week to make the decisions that could either win or lose your matchups. Christian Kirk, Najee Harris, and Breece Hall all have interesting cases this week, and we're here to […]


JuJu Smith-Schuster - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers NFL Injury News

Should I Drop JuJu Smith-Schuster In Week 5? Fantasy Football Outlook

After bursting onto the scene in Ben Roethlisberger's waning years with 2,342 receiving yards in his first two seasons, wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has had a roller-coaster NFL career. His production fell off quite a bit over the next three years, never topping 831 yards and missing over fifteen games due to injury. The speedster […]


Jaylen Warren - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Is Jaylen Warren A Good Fantasy Football Pickup For Week 5? Waiver Wire Outlook

A quarter of the season has already passed and the proverbial fantasy dust is starting to settle a bit. Fantasy managers are still waiting to see how players like Cooper Kupp and Jonathan Taylor will fare, but we are starting to get a good sense as to who can be relied on in 2023.  One […]


Tank Bigsby - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Is Tank Bigsby A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 4? Waiver Wire Outlook

The Jacksonville Jaguars entered training camp with a hole at the RB2 spot. 2021 first-round pick Travis Etienne was the definitive top-man in the backfield, but his backup job was up for grabs. The team signed Browns RB D’Ernest Johnson to potentially fill this void but also drafted Tank Bigsby to compete. It was ultimately […]


Joshua Palmer - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Is Joshua Palmer A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 4? Waiver Wire Outlook

The NFL season is in full swing with three weeks already in the books. Injuries are unfortunately starting to stockpile, but that’s the nature of the game. For fantasy football, this means taking a look at the next man up.  The Chargers have been a franchise that’s been hit hard in recent seasons, and the […]


Amari Cooper - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Should I Start Amari Cooper in Week 3? WR Fantasy Football Rankings Analysis

The Browns have been an incredibly disappointing passing offense to start the year. Quarterback Deshaun Watson looks like a shell of his former self, which has resulted in a bottom-10 passing attack across the league with 177 yards per game.  The low production through the air has really hurt the Browns' pass-catchers, as Amari Cooper, […]


Isiah Pacheco - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Rookies

Should I Start Isaiah Pacheco in Week 3? RB Fantasy Football Rankings Analysis

It’s hard to trust running backs who seldom catch passes, especially in PRR formats. Players like Austin Ekeler, Christian McCaffrey, Saquon Barkley, and Aaron Jones are elite options at the position because of their pass-catching floors.  Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco is such an intriguing talent because of his size, speed, and brute running style, […]


Matthew Stafford - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Is the Rams Offense Going to Be Good for Fantasy Football? Outlooks For Matthew Stafford, Cam Akers, Kyren Williams, more

Week 1 of the NFL season is in the books and that means the overreactions are now pouring in from every nook and cranny across the fantasy universe. Erik Ezukanma outscored Tee Higgins and Drake London. Tyler Allgeier is the running back No. 4. Joshua Kelley and Justice Hill outscored Saquon Barkley and Josh Jacobs. […]
