The Cleveland Browns and New York Jets have backfields that feel a bit volatile right now -- Browns RB1 Quinshon […]

Wide receivers on waivers are always interesting players to try to snag. They can be hugely boom-or-bust players, especially in PPR leagues, where receptions count for a full point. That one point counts for the same as 10 rushing yards, 10 receiving yards, or 25 passing yards, meaning even players that sometimes operate as "PPR […]

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker, Indianapolis Colts wideout Alec Pierce, and Tennessee Titans WR Chimere Dike are three players likely on the roster bubble in many fantasy football leagues.

Week 8 is the biggest bye week of the year, with a huge total of SIX teams getting the week off. With everyone's roster stretched thin, it's an important week to show off your depth or come up with a creative solution really quickly. One position where many managers may need help is at tight […]

The Houston Texans got blasted in Week 7 by the Seattle Seahawks. Their passing offense has struggled massively this year, with quarterback C.J. Stroud playing poorly.
