The Cut List - Time to Let Go? Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 13

At this point in the season, when looking to cut someone, fantasy managers should ask themselves, "Is there any scenario in which I'd be okay starting this player?" If the answer is no, they're completely cuttable. If the answer is yes, then you must ask how likely that scenario is. You also need to consider […]

Unfortunately, four more teams are out of action on byes right before the fantasy football playoffs, and managers must dive deeper in the rankings to find one-week streamers and players in plus-matchups to stay in the postseason race.

Sneaky Fantasy Football Injuries to Affect Lineups - Winners and Losers for Week 12

Variety is the spice of life, so why not try something a little different on this fine fall afternoon?

There are players that are rostered in a majority of fantasy football leagues that you simply don't want to start some weeks, even if they're their team's starter at the position.

We are entering the playoff push, as fantasy managers look to rally their teams to a playoff berth and potentially a championship.

Hello again, RotoBallers, and welcome to the Week 12 edition of Warning Signals.

Tight Ends Start 'Em, Sit 'Em and Fantasy Football Trends for Week 12 (2025)

After years of not scoring touchdowns, Trey McBride now seemingly cannot stop. He's absolutely running away from the other tight ends and is now the clear and undisputed TE1. Jake Ferguson is the TE6 on the season. Kyle Pitts Sr. is the TE21. Ferguson's half-PPR PPG average is closer to Pitts's than it is to […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 12 (2025)

A wild Week 11 is in the books. Sean Tucker and TreVeyon Henderson ran wild, but are their days as the "featured guy" numbered? One of the top waiver wire additions heading into Week 11 broke out in a big way, but can he sustain that production going forward? As we do each week, we'll […]

The Cut List - Time to Let Go? Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 12

It was just pure carnage out there in Week 11. There were so many injuries. Injuries, byes, and suspensions! Xavier Worthy and D.J. Moore have certainly played their way onto the Cut List, but with the number of receivers currently projected to be out for Week 12, it's almost impossible to cut either player despite how disappointing […]

Biggest Fantasy Football Busts of the Week - Fantasy Outlooks for Lamar Jackson, Justin Herbert, Quinshon Judkins, Ladd McConkey, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, more

In Week 11 of the NFL season, just like every week, fantasy managers set their lineups in hopes of maximizing their points.

Unfortunately, those players don't always live up to the hype. This […]

Fantasy Football Landmines to Avoid for Week 11 - Trevor Lawrence, Jordan Addison, Deebo Samuel Sr., and more

It can be hard to bench starting players in NFL offenses in your fantasy football leagues, especially if you're in deeper leagues and need to start less commonly started players.

Fantasy Football Drops Before Week 11 - Time To Say Goodbye?

Dropping the right players at the right time makes a ton of sense in fantasy football. If a player doesn't have a lot of upside to bring your team down the road, it makes little sense to continue wasting a bench spot on them. It's generally a better idea to look for high-upside stashes, because […]
