With injuries piling up and bye weeks continuing to be a factor, it's never been more important to nail your lineup decisions. We're here to help. It's time for the next edition of […]

Week 10 is a bummer - the two defenses we, as fantasy managers, like to attack the most are on bye. We'll see you soon, Cincinnati and Dallas.

I then highlight a handful of those players whose warning signals I […]

The big news this week at the tight end position revolves around the Tucker Kraft injury. After weeks of missing Brock Bowers and finally getting him back, fantasy managers have now lost Kraft for the season. This will send many fantasy managers reeling. There is no replacing Kraft. It simply cannot be done. Well, unless […]

The NFL Trade Deadline has come and gone, and we're halfway through the 2025-2026 season.

We're over the halfway point of the fantasy football regular season. Players such as Brian Thomas Jr. and Terry McLaurin are in the midst of lost seasons, and that was made worse when both sustained injuries.

We know which teams are going for it, which teams stayed pat, and (mostly) which ones are playing out the string.  For dynasty purposes, this week is a helpful point in the season. We’ll begin to see which […]

It may seem hard to believe, but we have reached the halfway mark of the 2025 season. Time sure does fly when you’re having fun. Or in our case, time flies when you obsess over your fantasy football team every minute of the day. Last week’s sonic boom, J.K. Dobbins, had a solid but unspectacular […]

Welcome back to our Week 9 fantasy football busts, for players who may disappoint. It may be a tougher week than normal to determine lineup busts. Las Vegas oddsmakers predict a high-scoring slate, with five games with an over/under of 50 points. Toss in four teams on bye this week, and the pickings are slim. […]

The NFL Trade Deadline is set for next week, and the fantasy football landscape is bound to shift.

We are entering the second half of the NFL season, and the tight-end position has once again become a cluster. There are about four good ones.

If you're struggling through the fantasy football season, chances are at least one of these guys is on your roster. Good on you for not giving up, reading this article, and fighting to improve your team. Drafts can be won in the middle rounds, but lost in the early rounds. It's challenging to have a […]

There are three players listed in this week's edition who fit that very set of criteria. I also talked about not cutting rookies drafted early in this […]

It’s time: You have to peek at the standings. We’re halfway home on the NFL regular season, which means fantasy playoffs are nearing and the standings are beginning to solidify.
