Ricky Maloney - RotoBaller

201 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

Jake Elliott Not Worth Starting in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made both of his extra points and his only field goal attempt from 31 yards against the Broncos to maintain his 100% accuracy rate this season. Unfortunately, his perfect streak still isn't translating to fantasy points. Elliott faces the Giants on Thursday night, a team that he made two-of-three field […]


Dallas Goedert Will Try to Find End Zone Again Versus Giants

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert has now scored in three straight games, bringing his touchdown total to four since the start of Week 3. What's scary about Goedert is the fact that he hasn't garnered more than four receptions in a game since Week 1. While he is touchdown-dependent, managers might as well keep […]


DeVonta Smith Looks to Follow Up on Big Game

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith boomed against the Broncos, recording his highest target and receiving yard counts of the season in a team-leading performance. The question with Smith, as usual, is whether or not he can turn this into consistency. After his last big game against the Rams, he followed it up with two […]


A.J. Brown Deserves a Start With Enticing Matchup

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown has had four underwhelming showings in the first five weeks of the season, with his most recent game against the Broncos seeing him total just 43 yards on five catches. That being said, if there ever were a time for Brown to impress, it would be Thursday night against […]


A.J. Dillon Still Only Useful as a Handcuff

Philadelphia Eagles running back A.J. Dillon once again saw himself get priority over Will Shipley for second-in-command in the backfield this past Sunday, but that meant playing just 14.8% of offensive snaps compared to Shipley's 13.1%. Dillon carried the ball twice for 12 yards, with one attempt coming in the red zone. It seems like […]


Saquon Barkley is a Must-Start in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley tallied his lowest rushing yards count of the season against the Broncos, carrying the ball just six times for 30 yards. On the other hand, Barkley has the 10th-most receptions among RBs this year with 17, and added to that count by hauling in three catches for 58 yards […]


Jalen Hurts Should Have a Day Against Giants

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts had his worst rushing game of the season against Denver on Sunday, being held to just two attempts for three yards on the ground. However, Hurts is facing a Giants defense on Thursday night that allowed Jayden Daniels to run for 68 yards on them a few weeks back, so […]


Eagles D/ST Trying for Third Touchdown in Three Games

The Philadelphia Eagles defense/special teams unit was able to find the end zone for the second week in a row against Tampa Bay, blocking a punt for a house call on the opening drive of the game. They also forced two turnovers, with a fumble recovery and an interception later on in the contest. In […]


Jake Elliott on a Fantasy Cold Streak

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott didn't put a ton of points on the board last Sunday against the Buccaneers, but he did stay perfect on the season by making his lone field goal attempt and all four of his extra points. While Elliott is still yet to miss this season, it's not necessarily translating to […]


Dallas Goedert Looks to Extend Touchdown Streak Against Denver

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (knee) was not on the Friday injury report and seems ready to play on Sunday. Goedert has three scores over his last two games since returning from injury, hauling in two in the first half last week against the Buccaneers. Goedert has been one of the most consistent and […]


DeVonta Smith Needs More Looks in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has struggled through the first quarter of this season, tallying just one touchdown and 158 receiving yards thus far-and his journey won't get any easier in Week 5 as he lines up against the Broncos. What's especially worrying about Smith is that he was thrown to just twice in […]


A.J. Brown Trying to Rebound After Another Letdown

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown's fantasy managers were having flashbacks to the first two weeks of the season this past Sunday, as he put up another lackluster stat line despite getting plenty of looks. It's encouraging to see Brown get at least eight targets in each of his last three outings, but he's still […]


A.J. Dillon Should Get Little Attention Against Broncos

Philadelphia Eagles running back A.J. Dillon was the lead backup for Saquon Barkley against the Buccaneers, being on the field for 14% of snaps and carrying the ball three times for 17 yards. Anyone in the Philly backfield not named Barkley remains irrelevant in fantasy, especially against a Denver Broncos defense allowing less than 100 […]


Saquon Barkley Looks to Overcome Denver Defense

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley has failed to eclipse 50 rushing yards in each of his last two games, and will face another hurdle this Sunday against the Broncos. Denver is allowing 99.3 rushing yards per game this season-just one of 11 teams to average under 100. They also stifled Bengals RB Chase Brown […]


Jalen Hurts Faces a Tough Broncos Defense in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts did not complete a pass in the second half of his game against the Buccaneers, yet still put up a respectable fantasy performance by throwing for two early touchdowns. Week 4 marked his third game with multiple scores, and his third time this season rushing for 40 or more yards. […]


Eagles D/ST Worth Starting Against Injured Buccaneers

The Philadelphia Eagles defense/special teams unit had one of the best fantasy performances at their position in Week 3, in large part thanks to a blocked field goal returned for a touchdown in the dying moments of the game. Before that, it was looking like another disappointing day for this unit, allowing 26 points and […]


Jake Elliott is a Reliable Option Against Tampa Bay

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott hit all three of his extra point attempts last week against the Rams, but did not try any field goals. The Philly offense started off slow against Los Angeles, going three-and-out on four straight drives in the first half then following that up with a fumble on their second play […]


Dallas Goedert Sees Fewer Looks Last Week, but Still Worth Starting

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert only had one catch against the Rams, but it was for a 33-yard touchdown. Even in a game with minimal looks (he managed just two targets), Goedert was able to produce a decent fantasy day. The lack of production is slightly worrisome, but in this Philly offense, it feels […]


Darius Cooper Continues to See Little Action

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Darius Cooper did not record any stats in a 33-26 win over the Los Angeles Rams. Cooper also saw a decrease in snaps, being on the field for only six offensive plays in Week 3 after playing 12 the previous game. The undrafted rookie will have to wait another week before […]


DeVonta Smith Needs to Prove Consistency in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith recorded his first touchdown and his best fantasy outing so far this season against the Rams, and will try to string together a second strong game in a row as he faces Tampa Bay in Week 4. Philly's WRs did exactly as they're expected last Sunday, with A.J. Brown […]


A.J. Brown Trying for Second Straight Strong Week

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown finally got into his stride with a team-leading performance in Week 3, and looks to carry that momentum into a Sunday matchup against the Buccaneers. Last week, Tampa Bay let Garrett Wilson grab 10 catches for 84 yards and a touchdown, which makes this game look even more promising […]


Will Shipley Unlikely to Be Involved Much In Return

Philadelphia Eagles running back Will Shipley (oblique) was listed as a full participant on the team's Friday injury report and appears ready to return to game action this weekend against the Buccaneers. This comes after Shipley missed Philly's last two contests with an oblique injury suffered against the Cowboys. In his absence, fellow back A.J. […]


Saquon Barkley Looks to Get Back in Rhythm Against Buccaneers

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley had his first down week of the season against the Rams, and looks to get back to his usual ways in an upcoming game against the Buccaneers. The last time Barkley faced Tampa he was kept at bay, unable to find the end zone and rushing for 84 yards […]


Jalen Hurts Could Have Another High-Volume Day

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is coming into Week 4 with the hot hand, putting up four total touchdowns and tallying his highest passing yards count (226) so far this season in his most recent performance. Hurts proved yet again that he's one of the most versatile QBs in the league, and he'll have to […]


Eagles D/ST Faces Rams' Star WRs in Week 3

The Philadelphia Eagles defense/special teams unit held a Patrick Mahomes-led offense to just 17 points last week, their second game in a row allowing 20 points or less. Philly's defense has also forced two turnovers so far this year, while their Week 3 opponent (the Rams) have turned it over twice. Los Angeles did manage […]


Jake Elliott Trying to Stay Hot After Another Elite Performance

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott impressed once again last Sunday, nailing both of his extra points and both of his field goal attempts. It wasn't an easy task either, with his makes coming from 58 yards to end the first half then 51 yards early in the third quarter. Elliott will kick against the Los […]


Dallas Goedert Could Hoard a Majority of Targets Once Again

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert was not listed on Friday's injury report and appears to be fully ready for Sunday's contest against the Los Angeles Rams. This will be Goedert's first action since Week 1 after being sidelined for a game with a knee injury. In his one appearance, he led Philly in targets […]


Darius Cooper Involved More, But Not Enough

Eagles rookie wideout Darius Cooper failed to achieve any targets once again in Philadelphia's Week 2 game against the Chiefs. However, Cooper did manage to see an increase in snaps, appearing in 12 offensive plays against Kansas City compared to the two he played versus the Cowboys. That could also be chalked up to the […]


DeVonta Smith Still Worth a Cautious Start

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith is coming off of a slightly underwhelming fantasy performance against the Chiefs. While he did lead his team in receiving yards, that meant mustering just 53 on four catches. Philly's passing game has had a slow start to the season, sitting towards the bottom of the league with the […]


A.J. Brown Deserves a Third Chance

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown improved from his first game to his second, but that's not saying much. His most recent outing saw Brown grab five catches for 27 yards, but on the bright side, he did lead the team with eight targets after having just one in the season opener. The star wideout […]
