Offensive Line Champs and Chumps- Fantasy Football Matchups to Target (Week 4)

We saw a historic offensive performance in Week 3 thanks to the Miami Dolphins, who put up an absurd 70 points against the Denver Broncos. Outside of Miami (which has received most of the well-deserved press), there were plenty of other good offensive games as well. Eight different teams scored at least 28 points as […]

The Cut List – Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 4

With three weeks in the books, fantasy managers have a much better idea of who teams are, what roles certain players have, and which players can be trusted. The sample size still isn’t very large, but it’s enough we can start feeling confident in the information that’s been gathered over the last three weeks of […]

Biggest Fantasy Football Busts of The Week - Fantasy Outlooks for Derrick Henry, Daniel Jones, Darren Waller, Nico Collins

The third Sunday of the 2023 NFL season has come and gone. Hopefully, you woke up on Monday morning feeling very good about how your matchup went. However, this week's slate of games was certainly stress-inducing for many fantasy football managers. Part of that stress was caused by a group of players who drastically underachieved […]

Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 3: Joe Burrow, Khalil Herbert, Jahan Dotson

Week 3 of the fantasy football season is underway and despite a limited set of data, it is okay to consider benching players with name value. We often hear the phrase "start your studs" and it is a tried and true method, especially earlier in the season. When injuries, tough matchups, and/or questionable team situations […]

Fantasy Football Week 3 Busts? Players Who May Disappoint Include Dameon Pierce, Kyle Pitts, Rhamondre Stevenson, Justin Fields

I’ll admit, I was wrong about Puka Nacua. I listed the wide receiver as a bust in Week 2, thinking there was no way he would get anywhere close to the 10 catches and 119 yards he gathered in Week 1. Instead, Stafford peppered Nacua with 20 targets and the rookie now leads the league […]

Booms and Busts - Fantasy Football Starts and Sits for Week 3 Lineups

Time To Panic? Underperforming Fantasy Football Studs Include Ja'Marr Chase, Josh Jacobs, Amari Cooper, Breece Hall, more

It's still early in the NFL season. Two weeks is a very small sample size. Don't overreact too much to the things we've seen. But with that said, there's been some performances from top players that are worrisome. Whether it's a stud wide receiver failing to live up to their high expectations or a running […]

Fantasy Football Tight End Preparation For Week 3

In half-PPR scoring, we have exactly two tight ends with more than 17 total points. Hunter Henry is one of those two tight ends, so basically the tight end position is going exactly how we expected, right? Just pure, ugly chaos. Mark Andrews and Travis Kelce both missed Week 1. Darren Waller was limited in […]

The Cut List – Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 3

It has been some really ugly football through two weeks, not only with the overall product that's been on the field but with the amount of injuries we've seen. Between these two, fantasy managers have been put in tough situations early in the year. With many players underperforming, managers are left wondering if they should […]

Fantasy Football Week 2 Busts? Players Who May Disappoint Include Dak Prescott, Terry McLaurin, Joe Mixon, Jordan Love, more

Week 1 of the 2023 NFL season was far from pretty. In some games, it was downright ugly. For someone who writes a weekly busts column, it makes my life a little easier. But that's not at all fun for fantasy football, so let's go to bed and pray for more touchdowns and explosive plays […]

Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 2: Dak Prescott, Cam Akers, and Jerry Jeudy

Week 2 of the fantasy football season is underway and despite a limited set of data, it is okay to consider benching players with name value.

Fantasy Football Tight End Preparation For Week 2

Welcome back to the most depressing article series you’ll read all year. That’s because it’s here where we’ll be focusing on the fantasy football tight end position. Week 1 could not have been any uglier without Travis Kelce, Mark Andrews, and a limited Darren Waller. The tight end landscape was brutal. Just two tight ends […]

Offensive Line Champs and Chumps- Fantasy Football Matchups to Target (Week 2)

Let’s ignore the fact that many of Week 1’s games were underwhelming and bask in the fact that the NFL is officially back. As expected, many offenses struggled to get things going early in the season, leading to many slow games. At least we did get some fireworks from the matchup between the Chargers and […]

The Cut List – Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 2

Week 1 always has a tendency to throw us a few curves. That’s the nature of dealing with a sample size of one. You’re going to get some funky stuff. The thing to remember is to try not to overreact. Yes, it’s important to pivot and admit when we got something wrong, but it’s also […]

Biggest Week 1 Busts: Fantasy Football Reactions for Joe Burrow, Tee Higgins, D'Andre Swift, Dallas Goedert, Skyy Moore

Fantasy Football Week 1 Busts? Players Who May Disappoint: Daniel Jones, Najee Harris, Breece Hall, Kyle Pitts, more

The gap between fantasy football drafts and opening night kickoff is similar to the time between Christmas and New Year's Eve. You're coming off of that holiday high but the next big event is just a handful of days away. Like any holiday, you'll need to make your plans in advance. That's where fantasy managers […]

The NFL season is finally upon us and a big matchup is on the horizon between the Chiefs and Lions on Thursday night football.

Overvalued Tight Ends - Three Potential Busts for Fantasy Football Including Dalton Kincaid, Chigoziem Okonkwo, Juwan Johnson

The 2023 NFL season starts on Thursday night, but plenty of fantasy football managers will be drafting the night before kickoff. For last-minute drafters like myself, it's important to get as much key information as you can before you're on the clock and ready to compete with your league mates. Tight ends are always difficult […]

Fantasy Football Breakouts, Busts, and Locks - Green Bay Packers 2023 Outlook

The Green Bay Packers are in a state of flux for the first time in a long, long time.

The reins have been handed over to youngster Jordan Love, and the fantasy football […]

Overvalued Wide Receivers - Three Potential Busts for Fantasy Football Including Michael Pittman, Christian Watson, DK Metcalf

With NFL kickoff just around the corner and draft season being in full effect, it’s important to identify potential busts in fantasy football to avoid when on the clock. To be clear about what classifies a player as a fantasy football “bust,” it is not saying that they will have a bad season by any […]

NFL Rookie Avoids for 2023 Fantasy Football Dynasty Drafts - Quentin Johnston, Roschon Johnson, more

Rookies are extremely important in fantasy football. In dynasty leagues they ARE the draft and in re-draft leagues, they can be season-defining draft picks or waiver wire pick-ups. Even with all the content out there, I still think the fantasy football market generally underrates rookies in redraft fantasy football. Drafters don't like taking players they […]

Early-Round Overvalued Picks for 2023 Fantasy Football Drafts - Justin Herbert, Najee Harris, George Kittle, more

Writing about sleepers and positive outcomes is lovely, but it can't all be sunshine, rainbows, and the hype that was promised. All those picks are squandered if you crush yourself with overvalued players in the early rounds. We'll be looking at each position, identifying who I think will underperform their draft-day cost and fail to […]

Yahoo Undervalued, Overvalued Fantasy Football Draft Picks - Lamar Jackson, Raheem Mostert, Rashid Shaheed, Skyy Moore, more

Many fantasy football seasons are won and lost on draft day. Fantasy football isn't just about knowing the best players; rather, it is about identifying value at each draft position.
