I have been playing fantasy sports since I was in college and have been writing about fantasy football (along with baseball and hockey) for 30 years now. I have had fantasy articles published on the websites for ESPN, Bleacher Report, SportsFan Radio, and the Hockey News, and have now been writing with RotoBaller for almost five years. I have been honored to have written the weekly "Tight End Waiver Wire Column" for RotoBaller the past four years. I have also written a short story collection called "10 Tales To Make Your Head Explode" that was featured on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" and a children's book titled "Jeepers" that is currently used by schools around the country in second-grade classrooms. My poetry and short stories have been featured in various magazines over the years as well, so fantasy football is not the only writing I do, but it is easily the most fun. Feel free to follow me on Twitter at @craigrondinone. Thanks for reading my columns and articles and visiting RotoBaller!

Cade Otton - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 11 TE Options Include Colston Loveland, Theo Johnson, Cade Otton, A.J. Barner, Juwan Johnson

There are only two starting tight ends off in Week 11, and one will be sorely missed by fantasy football managers. Indianapolis Colts star rookie Tyler Warren is off, meaning millions of fantasy footballers will need a substitute tight end for their crucial games this week, a game that might have playoff implications in their […]


Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 10 TE Options Include Colston Loveland, Theo Johnson, Harold Fannin Jr., A.J. Barner, Kyle Pitts Sr.

Another week, another bevy of NFL teams on bye. Kansas City’s Travis Kelce and Dallas’ Jake Ferguson highlight the tight ends who will be off this week, so there will be many fantasy general managers in need of one-week fill-ins at the position. That is not counting Green Bay’s Tucker Kraft, who left Sunday’s game […]


Jameson Williams - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Time to Drop Jameson Williams? Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

Detroit Lions big-play provider Jameson Williams has been a feast-or-famine player for fantasy footballers in 2025. I thought after Williams signed a multimillion-dollar deal with the Lions in the offseason that it would cement his place in their high-powered offense. That has not been the case, however. While Pro Bowler Amon-Ra St. Brown and superb […]


Oronde Gadsden II - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 9 TE Options Include Oronde Gadsden, Kyle Pitts Sr., Theo Johnson, A.J. Barner, Harold Fannin Jr.

Halloween week will not be too scary for fantasy football managers at the tight end position. Four NFL teams are on bye this week. Still, fantasy managers will not be affected much at the tight end unless they roster Philadelphia’s Dallas Goedert, who has gotten off to a scintillating start (seven TDs) and keeps quiet […]


Bhayshul Tuten - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Sleepers, NFL DFS Picks

Time to Drop Bhayshul Tuten? Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

The Jacksonville Jaguars just had a week off thanks to being on bye. Is it time for fantasy footballers to wave bye-bye to the team’s backup running back? Bhayshul Tuten has shown flashes of talent when he has subbed in for top tailback Travis Etienne Jr. this season. Tuten has 32 carries for 130 yards […]


Kimani Vidal - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injuries

Time to Drop Kimani Vidal? Fantasy Football Week 8 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

It did not take long for Los Angeles Chargers tailback Kimani Vidal to go from a fantasy hero to a fantasy zero. After racking up 124 rushing yards and catching a touchdown pass in Week 6 versus the New York Giants, Vidal was held to 20 rushing yards and 15 receiving yards by a staunch […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 8 TE Options Include Oronde Gadsden, Kyle Pitts, Harold Fannin, Theo Johnson, Pat Freiermuth

The talent pool is going to be a lot shallower in fantasy football leagues this week. Six teams are on bye this upcoming week. Six! The tight end position will be missing several key players, including Detroit’s Sam LaPorta, Las Vegas’ Brock Bowers, Arizona’s Trey McBride, and Seattle’s A.J. Barner. This is probably the worst […]


Hassan Haskins - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Time to Drop Hassan Haskins? Fantasy Football Week 7 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

It seems the Los Angeles Chargers have found their new top tailback. The Chargers backfield was in a serious state of flux heading into their Week 6 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Down their top two tailbacks (Omarion Hampton and Najee Harris), late-round rookie Hassan Haskins and former 6th-round pick Kimani Vidal were set to […]


Harold Fannin Jr. - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7 TE Options Include Harold Fannin Jr., Evan Engram, Theo Johnson, Kyle Pitts, Jake Tonges, more

Only two teams are on bye in the NFL this upcoming week, but both have tight ends that have been fantasy forces this season and/or in past seasons. Buffalo’s Dalton Kincaid and Baltimore’s Mark Andrews will not be on the field this week, so millions of fantasy managers will need to find replacements if they […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6 TE Options Include Darren Waller, Mason Taylor, Theo Johnson,Jake Tonges, Evan Engram

New England’s Hunter Henry and Seattle’s A.J. Barner might not be available on the waiver wire in your fantasy football league anymore, but there are still some solid tight ends that you could pick up and plug into your lineup this week. Only two teams are on bye this week, so fantasy managers will have […]


Kyle Pitts - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5 TE Options Include Kyle Pitts Sr., Brenton Strange, Darren Waller, Dalton Schultz, A.J. Barner and more

Oh, no. They are here. The byes are here! The first week of NFL teams being off due to their bye week is upon us. At tight end, the biggest player missing is Green Bay’s Tucker Kraft, who has been one of the best fantasy players at the position during the first month. Atlanta’s Kyle […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 4 TE Options Include Hunter Henry, Harold Fannin Jr., Brenton Strange, more

The byes do not start until Week 5 in the NFL this year, so we have another full slate of games this weekend, and another full slate of tight ends playing. The tight end position in fantasy football is in flux. Kansas City’s Travis Kelce is one step closer to either being the next Joe […]


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

Time to Drop Josh Downs? Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Outlook (2025)

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs looked primed to have another solid season heading into 2025. He racked up 1,574 receiving yards over his first two years in the NFL, and with veteran Daniel Jones throwing to him instead of scattershot youngster Anthony Richardson, many probably thought Downs could break the 900-yard mark and have […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 3 TE Options Include Juwan Johnson, Zach Ertz, Brenton Strange, Harold Fannin Jr., more

Welcome back to our fantasy football tight ends waiver wire pickups for Week 3 of the 2025 NFL season. Let’s enjoy these no bye weeks while we still can, fantasy footballers! Everyone is playing again this week, except for the injured and the benched. That means there are plenty of prospects to pick up on […]


Zach Ertz - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 2 TE Options Include Zach Ertz, Brenton Strange, Jonnu Smith, Hunter Henry, more

One week down, three tight ends down. It did not take long for the injury bug to bite some tight ends on the backside. San Francisco’s George Kittle, Denver’s Evan Engram, and Las Vegas’ Brock Bowers all got banged up. Now, fantasy football managers are scrambling like Justin Fields to find tight ends. That is […]


Brenton Strange - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire, TE Streamers, NFL DFS

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 1 TE Options Include Brenton Strange, Dalton Schultz, Darren Waller, Cade Otton, more

Welcome back everyone to our tight ends fantasy football waiver wire pickups for Week 1 of the 2025 season! You do not have to wait for the NFL season to start to add players to your roster via the waiver wire – at least in some leagues. Maybe you are bummed you did not get […]


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

Upside Draft Fliers for the Final Picks - Fantasy Football Sleepers to Round Out Rosters

It is not hard to draft, buy or protect Saquon Barkley, Josh Allen, and/or Justin Jefferson and watch them lead you to a fantasy football title. You will not win the GM of the Year award in your fantasy league because you did that. What is difficult is finding the late-round sleepers that can round […]


David Njoku - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Tight End Fantasy Football Draft Avoids - Overvalued TE Bust Candidates (2025)

Drafting the right tight end might not win you a fantasy football title, but drafting the wrong one could cost you one. Sure, tight ends are not as important as running backs, receivers, or quarterbacks in fantasy football. Never have been, never will, unless you are in a rare league that uses three tight ends […]


Keon Coleman - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers and Targets: 8 Undervalued Players (2025)

Get your head off your MyPillows (that you got at your local discount store)! The fantasy football season is around the bend, and there are plenty of NFL players you do not want to sleep on! It is easy to win fantasy football titles when Saquon Barkley and Bijan Robinson are your running backs, Justin […]


Overvalued Dynasty Fantasy Football Assets: 5 Expensive Players to Avoid (2025)

NFL training camps are open for business. Your fantasy football team’s scouting department better be open, too. Fantasy football leagues are difficult enough to navigate and win. Then on top of it, if you are in a dynasty league, then not only are you worried about winning your league this year, you are worried about […]


Dalton Kincaid - Fantasy Football, Tight End, Draft, Rankings, DFS

2025 Fantasy Football Tight End Sleepers: 6 Undervalued Draft Targets

The 2025 NFL Draft made football fans and fantasy footballers think about tight ends again. With two taken in the first round and another three in the second round, the fantasy future looks bright again at the position. Tight ends are always undervalued in fantasy football. While they do not provide the fantasy bang receivers, […]


Adonai Mitchell - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

6 Second-Year Wide Receiver Draft Busts: Fantasy Football Avoids and Overvalued

It isn’t easy being a wide receiver in today’s NFL. The coverages have become more complex. Receivers must fight with other gifted receivers and talented tight ends for targets and touches. So much depends on the quarterback who is throwing to you and the offense you are a part of, too. Simply put, being a […]


Brock Purdy - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Fantasy Football Quarterbacks To Avoid in 2025

It is never too early to prepare for the upcoming fantasy football season. Fantasy football revolves around running backs and receivers, especially in leagues where each team only starts one signal-caller and not two. You still need a decent quarterback to challenge for a league championship, though. And thanks to injuries and the lack of […]

Let's Get Defensive: The Biggest NFL Defensive Player Signings/Trades Of The Offseason

Fantasy football can be so much more than just touchdowns, yards, targets, receptions, and rushes. To make things even more interesting, you can be in a fantasy league where both sides of the ball are represented. IDP (Individual Defense Player) fantasy football leagues have gained in popularity over the past several seasons. Now, fantasy footballers […]


Dalton Kincaid - Fantasy Football, Tight End, Draft, Rankings, DFS

Biggest Fantasy Football Tight End Busts: 2025 Draft Risks and Player Outlooks

2024 was not a bad year for tight ends in the NFL and fantasy football. Three tight ends (San Francisco’s George Kittle, Las Vegas’ Brock Bowers, and Arizona’s Trey McBride) all had over 1,100 receiving yards. That had not happened since 2018. There was not even one 1,100-yard tight end in 2023, let alone three. […]


Isaac Guerendo - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Dynasty Fantasy Football Trade Targets: Four Backup Running Backs To Buy (2025)

You can never have enough running backs in fantasy football, just like you can never have enough lobster tails at your favorite seafood establishment. While the NFL has transformed into a pass-first league, and the fantasy values of quarterbacks and wide receivers have increased over the past decade, running backs still rule the fantasy roost. […]


Keon Coleman - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

NFL Rookie Busts To Buy in Fantasy Football Dynasty Leagues

The 2024 NFL regular season is over, and so are all the fantasy football seasons tied to it, but that does not mean the fun stops if you are in a dynasty league. The way to win dynasty fantasy leagues is to build around a core of players you can hold onto for several seasons. […]


Saquon Barkley - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Why The Philadelphia Eagles Can Win Super Bowl LIX

The NFC East champion Philadelphia Eagles are one of the favorites to win Super Bowl LIX in February. Only the top seeds in each conference, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Detroit Lions, are thought of as better bets to win it all. Philadelphia has a lot of things going in its favor, though. The […]


JK Dobbins - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Is J.K. Dobbins Hurt or Healthy? Injury Update for Fantasy Football Wild Card Weekend (2025)

Fantasy footballers know Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins has never met an injury he could not have, and 2025 has been no exception. The only positive about his injuries this year is that they have not been of the season-ending variety. Dobbins missed four games earlier in the season with a knee injury, […]


Gus Edwards - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL DFS Picks

Is Gus Edwards Out For the Season? Week 18 Fantasy Football Injury Update

Fantasy footballers probably thought Gus Edwards would be the Los Angeles Chargers’ top tailback in 2024. Instead, he is not on a roster in half of the fantasy leagues in the world right now. After setting career-highs with 810 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns in 2023 with the Baltimore Ravens, Edwards took his talents to […]
