Booms and Busts - Starts and Sits for Week 10 Lineups

Throughout the 2021 season, we have seen some baffling player production every week. But in Week 9, we somehow landed in the Bizzaro world of fantasy football. Sure, there were your traditional names littered among the top of positional rankings. But overwhelmingly, we saw several players come from out of nowhere to produce starter-level statistics […]

Finding Tight End Breakouts - Champs, Chumps, and Contenders

Week 9 was almost the first week of the NFL season where everything in the fantasy world of tight ends was right until rookie Pat Freiermuth screwed everything up. Still, we saw George Kittle, Travis Kelce and Darren Waller finish No. 2, 3 and 4 respectively in half-PPR scoring. The rookie out of Penn State […]

Top Trade Targets and Avoids for Week 10

In a perfect world, you would have traded away Khalil Herbert two weeks ago as recommended and acquired James Conner before Week 9. I won't tell you to make those moves now because the window to get anything of value for Herbert is completely shut now that David Montgomery is back to a full workload […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 10

Well, that was an interesting week. Heavy favorites fell, cellar dwellers won, and many of the top fantasy scorers were on benches or waivers. It's unlikely that Week 10 will bring the same level of unpredictability but that's the great thing about the NFL - you never know what to expect. In this weekly column, […]

Fantasy Football Champs and Chumps - Offensive Line Analysis for Week 10

Week 9 finished as one of the most frustrating fantasy football weeks in a long time thanks to a lack of scoring across the league. Offenses we have come to rely on (Buffalo, Kansas City, Dallas) failed to provide much fantasy value. Teams that we have avoided this year (New York Jets, New England Patriots, […]

Surprise Fantasy Football Studs, Duds - Real or Mirage?

Week 9 was one of the wildest weeks we've had for fantasy football in quite some time.

The Cut List – Who To Drop for Week 10?

Welcome back Brandon Aiyuk! Allen Robinson showed signs of life with over 10 fantasy points this week! Justin Fields looked pretty good on Monday Night Football against the Steelers and it looks like Aiyuk is finally out of Shanahan's dog house. The cute thing about Shanahan's dog house with players is that the coach himself […]

Week 9 Busts? Players Who Could Disappoint

After a week where we saw the cream rise to the top, Week 8 was back to the wild wild west in the world of fantasy football.

Finding Tight End Breakouts - Champs, Chumps, and Contenders

What a lame NFL Trade Deadline. Fantasy managers everywhere were likely hoping for an Evan Engram trade or maybe an Eric Ebron trade. Both would have had monster fantasy implications. Sadly, the NFL Trade Deadline is just about one of the biggest sporting events that always disappoints. With absolutely no movement anywhere, fantasy status quos […]

Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 9

The Cut List – Who To Drop for Week 9?

I feel the need to come clean on two players who have finally made my cut list – and one of them comes with an asterisk. I have been hesitant to include Odell Beckham Jr. or Allen Robinson on the Cut List despite their extremely poor play and I think I need to explain why. When […]

Surprise Fantasy Football Studs, Duds - Real or Mirage?

In Week 8 we witnessed a few unfamiliar names register QB1 performances. Mike White finished as QB-2 in his first career start, Justin Fields seemed to have turned a corner to finish as QB-5 and Geno Smith took advantage of a great matchup against a bad Jaguars defense to finish as QB-8. Josh Allen, Jimmy […]

Booms and Busts - Starts and Sits for Week 8 Lineups

Finding Tight End Breakouts - Champs, Chumps, and Contenders

There is nothing more annoying than when the results don't line up with the process. It is, without a doubt, the worst part about fantasy football – and the best, if we're being honest. If the process was always right, this game we love would be a lot less fun if we knew all the […]

Fantasy Football Champs and Chumps - Offensive Line Analysis for Week 8

Week 7 was an absolute onslaught of bye weeks, but thankfully it has passed and we once again have 15 games of football.

Week 7 is done and over with it. To get through it, fantasy managers likely had to make plenty of hard decisions with six teams on byes and plenty of injuries across the league.
