With today’s NFL, where more teams than ever are utilizing the dreaded running-back-by-committee approach to their rushing attacks, fantasy football managers are harder-pressed than ever before to get their hands on workhorse running backs who never get off the field. The running back position is still the most important one in fantasy football. Yes, NFL […]

Just like that, the 2026 NFL season is almost here. And if you've already finished your fantasy draft, you can look forward to adding players from the waiver wire!

After years of misery and suffering, the Jacksonville Jaguars are finally looking dangerous. Liam Coen is an offensive genius, Trevor Lawrence had an outstanding 2025 season and is finally looking like the generational player we all knew he'd become, and they are blessed with two standout WRs. Brian Thomas Jr. dominated the 2024 season as […]

The running back position is, unfortunately, one that tends to get quickly depleted in redraft leagues, whether in standard, half-PPR, or full-PPR. A starting running back with a large role in his offense is an extremely valuable fantasy asset to have. In recent years, there haven't been many waiver wire league-winning RB pickups to make. […]

Deciding when to start rebuilding in dynasty fantasy football is one of the most critical decisions for your roster’s longevity and can be one of the hardest pills to swallow.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift had a solid 2025 season, tallying 1,087 rushing yards, 34 catches, 299 receiving yards, and 10 touchdowns. He saw his workload slip a little bit as Kyle Monangai took on a bigger role during the second half, but Swift still had control of the backfield by season's end. While […]

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart has the potential to rank as a top-12 fantasy quarterback for the 2026 season. Dart impressed as a rookie last season, tallying 2,272 passing yards, 15 passing touchdowns, and five interceptions. He also tallied 487 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns. The rushing productivity did most of the heavy […]

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs entered this offseason as one of the biggest risers in football. The offense was trending up, Daniel Jones was returning from injury, and Downs took a step up the depth chart after Michael Pittman Jr. was traded to Pittsburgh. As a result, his ADP rose steadily throughout the summer, […]

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks is trending up once again. After knee injuries limited him to just five games through his first two seasons, he's now fully healthy and ready to occupy a big role on offense. There may be a little re-acclimation period as he gets used to his first NFL action since […]

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin possesses the talent needed to be a top-10 receiver in fantasy football, and he's looking to shake off an ugly 2025 season marred by injuries. McLaurin caught 38 passes for 582 yards and three touchdowns across 10 games last year. He missed seven contests and quarterback Jayden Daniels missed […]

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is set to enjoy an enormous quarterback upgrade following his offseason trade from the Dolphins to the Broncos.

The Tennessee Titans have waived wide receiver Xavier Restrepo, according to an announcement from the team. It's been an unconventional 24 hours for the second-year receiver, who made the initial 53-man roster on Sunday night, only to get cut loose on Monday. His roster spot will go to one of the five players the Titans […]

Baltimore Ravens head coach Jesse Minter said that he expects Tyler Loop to be the team's kicker entering Week 1, according to Giana Han of The Baltimore Banner.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Beck (ribs) was back on the practice field on Monday, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson (soreness) was seen working off to the side with the trainer during Monday's practice. According to Benjamin Royer, the Rams are taking the cautious approach with Ferguson right now. There are still 10 days before the season opener against the San Francisco 49ers. It doesn't sound like the […]

According to Adam Schefter, the Buffalo Bills have added wide receiver Greg Dortch to their practice squad on Monday. Dortch was unable to secure a depth role on the Detroit Lions and was cut over the weekend. He'll now head to Buffalo, but he doesn't exactly have a better shot at playing for the Bills. […]

According to Jordan Schultz, New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt has signed with the team's practice squad on Monday. Hyatt was cut from the 53-man roster over the weekend. However, the 24-year-old is back with the Giants after passing through waivers unclaimed. Hyatt is a former third-round pick of the Giants from 2023. He […]

Los Angeles Rams defensive end Myles Garrett (knee) was not seen on the field during Monday's practice, according to Nate Atkins. “He’s making good progress. Really good progress. The goal all along has been Australia,” head coach Sean McVay said. Garrett continues to be held out of practice while he deals with knee swelling. The […]

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (groin) was seen working off to the side during team drills at Monday's practice, according to Nate Atkins of The Athletic.

We've all heard the same old time-tested fantasy adages before -- "Draft your guys," "Just pick good players on good teams," and my personal favorite, "ADP is comprised mostly by losers."
