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!

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. […]

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 […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 17 TE Pickups Including Dalton Schultz, Hunter Henry, Chig Okonkwo, Brenton Strange, Noah Gray

This is championship week, people! So, if you are reading this, congratulations of sorts are in order. It all comes down to this in the majority of fantasy football leagues around the country and around the world. You drafted well, you picked up the right guys on the waiver wire, and you made all the […]


David Montgomery - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Are David Montgomery, Sincere McCormick, Nick Chubb Hurt? Fantasy Football Injury Updates (Week 16)

Fantasy footballers everywhere are battling it out in the playoffs in their leagues this week, so they better know which of their running backs are healthy and which ones are hurt ahead of Week 16. A couple of notable names in backfields were injured in Week 15, so you might need to scour your league’s […]


Chris Olave - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Is Chris Olave Out For the Season? Week 16 Fantasy Football Injury Update

New Orleans wide receiver Chris Olave’s concussions have concussed the playoff hopes of many of the fantasy football managers who rostered him this year. The Saints speedster and undisputed WR1 has suffered two concussions this season, which ups his “official” number of career concussions to four. Olave is only in his third NFL season, so […]


Noah Gray - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Tight End Sleepers

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 16 TE Pickups Including Brenton Strange, Noah Gray, Juwan Johnson, Hunter Henry, Stone Smartt

This week is the opening week of the playoffs in most fantasy football leagues. Your fantasy team might be one win away from claiming a title and the prizes and acclaim that goes with it. So you better have a decent tight end in your lineup, that’s for sure. Most fantasy managers are probably set […]


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

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 15? Jonnu Smith, Cade Otton, Jake Ferguson

In most fantasy football leagues, this is the final week of the regular season. So if this is the week you need to win to qualify for the playoffs in your league, you better not make a mistake filling out your lineup. The tight end position has been tricky for fantasy footballers this season. Some […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 15 TE Pickups Including Juwan Johnson, Zach Ertz, Dalton Schultz, Hunter Henry, Will Dissly and More!

Say “Bye, bye, bye!” to the NFL’s byes! Sorry to sound like N’Sync, but fantasy football managers have to be happier than a greyhound chasing a rabbit that there are no more NFL teams on bye for the remainder of the season. Injuries have already ravaged enough fantasy rosters as we head down the homestretch. […]


Tucker Kraft - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 14 TE Pickups Including Tucker Kraft, Zach Ertz, Hunter Henry, Pat Freiermuth, Juwan Johnson, Will Dissly

This is not the week fantasy footballers need a half-dozen NFL teams on bye. With the playoffs starting in most standard fantasy leagues within the next week or two, being severely shorthanded is the last thing fantasy managers want. The good news at tight end is that no major players at the position other than […]


Zamir White - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, NFL Injury News

When Is Zamir White Coming Back? Fantasy Football Injury Return Update for Week 13 (2024)

2024 was poised to be a superb season for Las Vegas running back Zamir White. Too bad a broken-down body has prevented him from having a breakout year. White was slated to be the Raiders’ top tailback entering the 2024 campaign. The door was wide open for him after the departure of Josh Jacobs to […]


Cole Kmet - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL injury News

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 13 TE Pickups Including Taysom Hill, Zach Ertz, Cole Kmet, Hunter Henry, Will Dissly, more

Two great things about Thanksgiving week – plenty of turkey and no NFL teams on bye! Zero tight ends will be missing in action this week because their teams are off, so that makes life easier for fantasy footballers heading into the crucial part of their schedules where playoff berths and division titles are clinched. […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 12 TE Pickups Including Jonnu Smith, Taysom Hill, Zach Ertz, Hunter Henry, Will Dissly, Brock Wright, more

Just like retail shoppers know “Black Friday” is coming up, fantasy footballers know that “Black Sunday” is happening during the 12th week of the NFL regular season. Why am I calling next week “Black Sunday”? It is because a season-high six teams are on bye, decimating the rosters of fantasy teams hoping to secure playoff […]


When Is Tyler Higbee Coming Back? Fantasy Football Injury Return Update for Week 11 (2024)

The Los Angeles Rams have been stuck using a three-man tight end rotation this season because of the glaring absence of Tyler Higbee. Los Angeles’ top tight end has not played yet this year due to a torn ACL he suffered on a dirty low hit during the 2023 playoffs. Higbee has been all of […]


Taysom Hill - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 11 TE Pickups Including Taysom Hill, Mike Gesicki, Will Dissly, Hunter Henry, Dawson Knox, Theo Johnson

Just when fantasy football games are becoming crucial, fantasy managers are missing key components of their squads thanks to bye weeks. Four more teams are off in Week 11, and the tight end position takes a hit because Tampa Bay’s Cade Otton, Arizona’s Trey McBride, Carolina’s Ja’Tavion Sanders, and New York’s Theo Johnson are all […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 10 TE Pickups Including Mike Gesicki, Hunter Henry, Taysom Hill, Theo Johnson, Zach Ertz, Jonnu Smith

There are going to be millions of fantasy football general managers in need of a tight end for Week 10. The dreaded bye week will sideline Las Vegas’ Brock Bowers, Cleveland’s David Njoku, and Green Bay’s Tucker Kraft, three TE1s that fantasy managers could certainly use as we cross the halfway point in the NFL […]


Tyrone Tracy Jr. - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Is Tyrone Tracy Jr. Hurt or Healthy? Is Tyrone Tracy Jr. Starting For Fantasy Football Week 9?

When the New York Giants lost franchise running back Saquon Barkley to the Philadelphia Eagles in the offseason, Buffalo Bills castoff Devin Singletary was brought in to be the team’s top tailback. An unheralded fifth-round pick out of Purdue has definitely changed the fantasy football fortunes of Singletary, though. Tyrone Tracy Jr. has been a […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 9 TE Pickups Including Cade Otton, Hunter Henry, Isaiah Likely, Zach Ertz, Tyler Conklin, Mike Gesicki, more

Why can’t every Sunday be National Tight Ends Day? Fantasy footballers would love it if the pseudo-holiday could be celebrated every week -- especially if tight ends rack up record-breaking numbers like they did this past weekend. Tight ends accounted for 177 receptions and 16 touchdowns this past Sunday. It was the best single-day stats […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 8 TE Pickups Including Hunter Henry, Isaiah Likely, Zach Ertz, Jonnu Smith and More

Even though we are in the thick of the NFL season, no teams are on bye this week! That does not mean there are not millions of fantasy footballers in need of a tight end. Tight ends have not exactly been tearing it up this season. You might be one of the millions of fantasy […]


Zack Moss - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injuries

Should I Drop Zack Moss? Fantasy Football Outlook For Week 8

The Cincinnati Bengals signed Zack Moss in the offseason to replace longtime stalwart Joe Mixon as the top tailback on the team. Little did fantasy footballers know that he would go from being the Bengals RB1 to possibly being drummed off of fantasy rosters by midseason. Moss was Cincinnati’s starting tailback at the start of […]


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

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 7 TE Pickups Including Isaiah, Likely, Zach Ertz, Hunter Henry, Cade Otton, Grant Calcaterra

Chicago’s Cole Kmet is coming off a two-TD game. Too bad he will have to wait until Week 8 for an encore. Kmet and Dallas’ Jake Ferguson are on bye this week, so millions of fantasy footballers will need a tight end this week with these two off. The problem is the amount of solid […]


Travis Etienne Jr. fantasy football rankings draft sleepers running backs

Is Travis Etienne Hurt or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne was probably taken in the first or second round in most of the fantasy football drafts held before the start of the season. Now he is not even the best back on the Jaguars, let alone the fantasy squads he is rostered on. Etienne, like most of the 1-4 […]


Tucker Kraft - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 6 TE Pickups Including Tucker Kraft, Isaiah Likely, Cade Otton, Tyler Conklins

Another week, another four NFL teams are on bye. Fantasy footballers will not miss Miami’s Jonnu Smith, Los Angeles’ Colby Parkinson, or Minnesota’s Josh Oliver all that much, but they will miss Kansas City stalwart Travis Kelce, arguably the best tight end in the history of fantasy football. Even though Kelce has gotten off to […]


David Njoku - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire

Is David Njoku Hurt or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

2024 has not been a good year for tight ends in the fantasy football world, and Cleveland’s David Njoku is a prime example. Njoku was expected to be a top-10 fantasy tight end entering the season, possibly a top-5 at the position if everything broke right. He was coming off a career year where he […]


Tucker Kraft - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tight Ends Fantasy Football Waiver Wire - Week 5 TE Pickups Including Tucker Kraft, Zach Ertz, and Taysom Hill

October is here, and so are the opening round of bye weeks! The first four NFL teams are on vacation in Week 5, and the tight end position takes a seismic hit. Detroit’s Sam LaPorta and Philadelphia’s Dallas Goedert will have the week off, meaning millions of fantasy managers need a tight end as badly […]


Dontayvion Wicks - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Should I Drop Dontayvion Wicks? Fantasy Football Outlook

The Green Bay Packers are 2-1 despite not having franchise quarterback Jordan Love on the field for the past two games due to a knee injury. But while the Packers should be in a good mood heading into their NFC North tilt against the undefeated Minnesota Vikings this Sunday, not all of the Packers are […]


T.J. Hockenson - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

When Is T.J. Hockenson Coming Back - Fantasy Football Injury Return Update for Week 4 (2024)

Minnesota quarterback Sam Darnold has been of the biggest surprises in the NFL and fantasy football through the first three weeks of the season. What is even more impressive is that he has been racking up the touchdown tosses without the help of his top tight end. T.J. Hockenson has been on the dreaded PUP […]
