Injury Impact - David Johnson Out 8-12 Weeks

So you got the first pick in your league. Awesome. You considered Le'veon Bell, but his injury history scared you off a bit. Same with Odell Beckham Jr. Antonio Brown was appealing, but a wide receiver first? Hmmm. Heck maybe you even considered Ezekiel Elliot, if you drafted before the news of his suspension. But […]

Week 2 Dynasty Football Buy or Sell

Dynasty fantasy football is a completely different animal than redraft formats when it comes to valuing players. Redraft fantasy owners must look at a given situation and make their best guess about a player’s outlook for an entire season, whereas dynasty owners need to determine if a situation has either improved or worsened for a […]

Week 24 Waiver Wire - Starting Pitchers

We're in the final weeks of the fantasy baseball season and there's really no time to dilly-dally anymore.
