Heroes and Zeroes - Week 7 Fantasy Football Picks

C.J. Anderson was a big, huge, fat bust last week and I totally missed on that. There, I feel better now. No, not really. While we're all trying to predict the future here and wrong quite a bit, it never feels good to be totally wrong when you're putting it out there for thousands to […]

NFL Survivor League Picks (Week 7): Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids

The stunners continued this past Sunday. None bigger than the Giants dominating the Broncos in Denver. I could not have been more wrong about it, and neither could the public. The line opened at about 9.5/10 in favor of Denver and closed at 13.5. Nobody believed in the Giants, but they finally came out and […]

Thursday Night Matchup Analysis (Week 7)

Cam Newton, on the other hand, struggled mightily in the passing game with […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 6 Fantasy Football Picks

I'll start by repeating something profound I said in my podcast yesterday: Deshaun Watson is good. I'd put him at the top of this column once again, but it's too obvious in a matchup with Cleveland and you should be starting him anyway. Now that we got that out of the way, I'll continue by […]

It's Week 6. The Kansas City Chiefs are undefeated, the Patriots have looked average at many points, and the Houston Texans are suddenly an offensive oriented team. The NFL, y'all, where things change so fast. Case in point: Amari Cooper would have been cut already if his name wasn't Amari Cooper in all your fantasy […]

Week 6 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

There was plenty of parity last week, but I have a feeling we're going to see some blowouts on Sunday. It feels a little funny putting a Jets tight end, a Texans quarterback, and a Broncos running back in my top five, but fantasy football is a funny game after all. As an expert ranker […]

Fantasy Football Mailbag – Bit By The Injury Bug?

There's always the inevitable weeks where most of the major storylines coming out are injury-related. Unfortunately, Week 5 was one of those week's as one of the biggest fantasy stars was lost for the season. But it didn't stop with Odell Beckman. The Giants also lost Brandon Marshall for the year, Rob Gronkowski was surprisingly […]

Thursday Night Matchups Analysis (Week 6)

So much for a high-flying battle in Tampa...

Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 5)

Happy Monday RotoBallers! Another week, another Monday.

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 5 Fantasy Football Picks

Sometimes you just get that feeling... this week is going to be special. A typical NFL week can turn into a horror show when it's rife with injuries, or if the team you had stacked in multiple leagues gets upset at home... cough cough, Falcons, cough... But this is one of those weeks where each game […]

Fantasy Pop Quiz - NFL Questions for Week 5

When I'm not phoning in my once-a-week column, I'm in digital marketing. For the most part it means I'm behind a computer working on one of dozens of things, or on a phone. But this week, I got away from the computer, and after a few years of work at a sports-related startup, I was back […]

Top 10 Fantasy Football Lineup Busts - Week 5

Some anecdotes from my home league that illustrate some thought processes about a few of last week's bust picks: Two weeks ago, two teams in my league made a trade: Dez Bryant for Amari Cooper. This was before Cooper stopped existing the past two weeks and I was, at the time, surprised someone would give up […]

Week 5 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

Now things get interesting. We have some high-profile offenses taking the week off and it seems like all the matchups this week are all or nothing. There could be upwards of 60 points on the board in the Pats-Bucs, Packers-Cowboys, and Chiefs-Texans games. Then there are the games that you only watch when Red Zone […]
