Ricky Maloney - RotoBaller

147 articles

I'm a lifelong sports fan, and more recently a Boston University graduate with a bachelor's in journalism. I've been playing fantasy sports for over a decade and have been writing about them for over two years now. My fantasy expertise is mainly in football, but I also provided in-depth coverage for hockey, basketball, and soccer teams during my time at BU. My experience across various sports has ranged from attending team practices and postgame press conferences to doing game analysis and writing opinion pieces. This is my second NFL season contributing to RotoBaller and I'm excited to keep giving my two cents! You can find me on Twitter/X @RickyJMaloney

Eagles D/ST Not the Smartest Play Against Dangerous Lions Offense

The Philadelphia Eagles defense/special teams unit managed to hold a Packers offense averaging 23.7 points per game to just seven points this past Monday, while forcing two fumbles and three sacks along the way. However, they'll have a tougher time finding the same stride in their upcoming meeting with the Lions. Detroit averages the second-most […]


Jake Elliott Unlikely to Break Out This Week

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made his only extra point attempt and his only field goal attempt from 39 yards in his most recent performance against the Green Bay Packers. While Elliott found his accuracy again, he was not given enough opportunities to put up any significant fantasy numbers in a game that ended 10-7. […]


Dallas Goedert Worth Taking the Chance on in Week 11

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert's six targets were second-most for his team in their last game, trailing only DeVonta Smith, who had seven. Unfortunately for Goedert, this was his third game of the season in which he did not score a touchdown, and he has relied heavily on finding the end zone to have […]


Darius Cooper Searching for First Career Catch Against Detroit

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper (shoulder) was listed as a full practice participant on Friday's injury report and appears to be good to go for Sunday's game against the Lions. Cooper saw his snap count decrease from a career-high 26 down to 11 between his last two games, and once again failed to […]


DeVonta Smith May Just be the Eagles' Best WR

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith is looking more and more like the true first option in the Philly passing game after outperforming and out-snapping A.J. Brown against the Packers. Smith has now led his team in receiving yards in five of their nine contests-including the last three in a row-while Brown has done so […]


A.J. Brown a Shaky Starter After Another Concerning Performance

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown had another frustrating performance against the Packers, with his three targets being the least amount of looks he's gotten in a game since Week 1. The only grace Brown can be granted is that this was his first playing time since Week 7's meeting with the Vikings, so maybe […]


Will Shipley Could be the New RB2 in Philly

Philadelphia Eagles running back Will Shipley set his season high for touches in a game last week against the Packers, carrying the ball four times and hauling in two catches. This resulted in 34 total yards, which is also his best in a single game this year. Philly's backfield has been tough to keep track […]


Saquon Barkley Has Challenging Matchup Against Lions

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley has gone without a rushing touchdown in four of his last five games after Monday's 10-7 victory over the Packers. For a low-scoring game, however, Barkley did manage a decent fantasy outing with three catches for 41 yards and matched his season-high carry count with 22. On Sunday, he […]


Jalen Hurts Should Still be Trusted After Low-Scoring Game

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts saved what would have been an abysmal fantasy performance last week with a 36-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter, but still had an overall disappointing night. This was Hurts' second game in a row with less than 200 passing yards, and he coughed up a fumble in the red […]


Eagles D/ST Facing a Huge Test Against Green Bay

The Philadelphia Eagles defense/special teams unit has had some strong performances recently, allowing 20 or fewer points in three of their last four games. They also set their season-high for sacks in a game in their latest contest, getting to the QB five times against the New York Giants. However, this Monday, Philadelphia faces one […]


Jake Elliott Misses Another Kick, Not Trustworthy Against Packers

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott has now missed field goal attempts in back-to-back games, going 1-for-2 in Week 8 against the New York Giants. At first, the problem with Elliott was his lack of kicking opportunities despite his consistent accuracy. Now, the problem is both his opportunities and his accuracy. While he did hit five […]


Dallas Goedert May Need to Find End Zone to Be Start-Worthy

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert had his second two-touchdown game of the season in his last performance-the same performance that saw him targeted just three times. Goedert has had many touchdown-dependent showings like this throughout the year-several outings where, had he not scored, he would have mustered just a few fantasy points on less […]


Darius Cooper Not on Stat Sheet Even with Increased Role

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper saw his highest usage of his career so far and his first playing time since Week 3 in Philly's last game against the Giants. When Philly hosted New York, Cooper played 26 snaps, being on the field for 44.1% of offensive plays. His previous highest was 12 snaps […]


DeVonta Smith Trying to Maintain Consistency in Week 10

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has tallied at least nine targets and over 80 receiving yards in three of his last four games as he heads into Monday Night Football versus the Packers this week. Smith has actually garnered more receiving yards and receptions than fellow star WR A.J. Brown this season, even without […]


A.J. Brown Worth Taking the Gamble on in Tough Matchup

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) was a full participant at practice on Friday and is expected to play against Green Bay. Brown was sidelined for one game before the team's bye, but just before that he had his best performance of the season with 121 receiving yards and two touchdowns against the Vikings. […]


Tank Bigsby Could be New Primary Handcuff in Eagles Backfield

Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby took over lead back duties in Week 8 after Saquon Barkley left the game early due to a groin injury. Despite logging zero offensive snaps in his first five weeks on the team, Bigsby has seemingly jumped up to being the primary backfield backup after getting nine carries for […]


Saquon Barkley Back From Injury to Face Strong Packers Defense

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (groin) was a full participant at practice on Friday and seems fully ready for Monday's game against the Packers. Before exiting in the second half of his last outing, Barkley outran the Giants defense for a 65-yard touchdown on the second play from scrimmage and finished with 174 total […]


Jalen Hurts Looking for Another Touchdown-Heavy Game Against Packers

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts comes off of the bye week to an immediate challenge as he travels to Green Bay to face a Packers defense allowing just 197 passing yards per game, which is the ninth-lowest average in the league. But, in his most recent outing, Hurts put up a season-high four touchdowns against […]


Eagles D/ST Trying to Improve Upon Previous Giants Matchup

The Eagles defense/special teams unit secured their third touchdown of the season last week against the Vikings, as Jalyx Hunt picked off quarterback Carson Wentz for a 42-yard score. Philadelphia intercepted Wentz twice in Week 7 while adding on two sacks along the way. This week, Philly has a rematch against the Giants after suffering […]


Jake Elliott Has First Miss of Season, Not Worth Starting in Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott had his first missed field goal of the season against the Vikings as a 42-yard attempt sailed wide right in the fourth quarter. He did, however, make all four of his extra points. As it stands, Elliott is already an unreliable fantasy kicker with his lack of attempts, and he's […]


Dallas Goedert Looks to Dominate Giants Once Again

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (calf) does not carry an injury designation on the Friday injury report. Goedert's touchdown streak finally came to an end last week after four straight games of scoring. It was an overall poor showing for Goedert, who had just three targets-his second-lowest in a game this season-amounting to three […]


DeVonta Smith Should Shine With A.J. Brown Out

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith went off for his best showing of the season last week, setting new highs in receptions (nine) and yards (183) while tacking on a touchdown. This Sunday, Smith faces off against the Giants without his counterpart in A.J. Brown. The Eagles don't often utilize other WRs, so Smith as […]


Jahan Dotson Could Be Slated for More Looks in Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jahan Dotson will likely step up as second-in-command at his position this week with A.J. Brown sidelined. Typically, Jalen Hurts only gives his top two WRs and Dallas Goedert any notable amount of targets, so with DeVonta Smith sliding into the definitive No.1 slot, there's an opening for some new blood. […]


Darius Cooper Questionable to Return After Injured Reserve Stint

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper (shoulder) is listed as questionable going into the weekend after being on injured reserve for the last four games. It could be perfect timing for Cooper, as star receiver A.J. Brown will not play Sunday due to a hamstring injury. He has played just 20 snaps in the […]


Will Shipley Listed as Second RB on Depth Chart

Philadelphia Eagles running back Will Shipley saw the bulk of snaps among his team's backup RBs last week, with A.J. Dillon being a surprising healthy scratch. While Dillon had been Saquon Barkley's main understudy for weeks, Shipley took over duties against the Vikings and was on the field for 16% of offensive snaps. Tank Bigsby […]


Saquon Barkley Trying to Snap Cold Streak Against Giants

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley has had his two worst fantasy performances of the season in his last two appearances, having failed to find the end zone since Week 5. Barkley got back to his high-usage ways last week against the Vikings, but was stifled to just 42 total yards on 19 touches. This […]


Jalen Hurts a Top Option After Another Big Outing

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is coming off of his strongest passing game of the 2025 campaign so far, throwing for three touchdowns and setting a new season-high with 326 yards. Two of those scores came from A.J. Brown, who will miss Sunday's matchup against the Giants with a hamstring injury, but New York allows […]


Eagles D/ST Faces a Turnover-Heavy Vikings Offense in Week 7

The Eagles defense/special teams unit allowed rookies Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo to put up 34 points last Thursday while also forcing no turnovers and just two sacks. In Week 7 Philadelphia is up against the Vikings, who are averaging 30 points per game during the three-week tenure of Carson Wentz. This defense hasn't performed […]


Jake Elliott Not Putting Up Enough Fantasy Points

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott has made less than two field goals in five out of six games this season, and his most recent performance was yet another example. While Elliott didn't miss anything, he made just one field goal of 42 yards and two extra points. He faces the Minnesota Vikings in Week 7, […]


Dallas Goedert is a Looming Touchdown Threat Against Vikings

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert cannot be stopped from scoring this season, as he found the end zone for his fourth straight game against the Giants. On top of that, Goedert had his most impressive overall showing yet, racking up nine catches on 11 targets for 110 yards. His next opponent is the Vikings, […]
