Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 4? Jerry Jeudy, Travis Hunter, Trey Benson, Zach Ertz

Hello, RotoBallers, and welcome to the Week 4 edition of my fantasy football Warning Signals column. Each week, I lean into the pessimism I’m feeling about the coming slate of games and give you a handful of players to consider benching and the reasons I’m out on them. In Week 4, I’m staying away from […]

The Cut List - Time to Let Go? Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 4

Welcome back to the Cut List for Week 4 of the 2025 fantasy football season. When it comes to the waiver wire and who we cut, we want to be bold, but not too reactionary. It's a fine line to walk. If we ignore concerning data points, we end up holding onto players too long […]

Dynasty League Cut List - Top Fantasy Football Drop Candidates for Week 4

We’re officially three games into the NFL season. Maybe we’re a little worse for the wear. Maybe some things didn’t break our way. Maybe the guy who you were certain about in the draft a couple years ago is -- and I’m sorry to be the one to tell you this -- isn’t good. But […]

Biggest Fantasy Football Busts of the Week - Fantasy Outlooks for Jordan Love, Chase Brown, Ashton Jeanty, Brian Thomas Jr., Calvin Ridley

The third Sunday of the 2025 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 Sleepers, Avoids: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 3 - RotoBaller Staff Roundtable

Whether you're 2-0, 1-1, or 0-2, it's early in the season, and injuries, role changes, and matchups will shake up the fantasy football landscape in the coming weeks. Surprise breakouts and unexpected busts always happen in the first two weeks of a new campaign, but it's far too early to overreact. We're here to help […]

Week 3 Fantasy Football Busts? Players Who May Disappoint (2025)

It's that time of the year again, when the season-long busts begin to separate themselves from the one-offs. You won't find the likes of Mark Andrews or Isiah Pacheco here. Their rest-of-season outlooks aren't looking very rosy. Instead, I'm here to crush your optimism about the good players on your fantasy roster. I do it […]

Booms and Busts - Fantasy Football Starts and Sits for Week 3 Lineups (2025)

Week 3 is upon us already. We had a mixed bag of results here last week. Our Sonic Boom did not work out so well after Breece Hall totaled just 29 rushing yards on 10 carries. Things looked great after Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Ed Oliver was ruled out with an ankle injury, but so […]

Fantasy Football Landmines to Avoid for Week 3? Tee Higgins, James Conner, Bo Nix, more

Two weeks are in the books, and the fantasy football landscape is beginning to take shape. The early-season chaos is slowly giving way to discernible trends, and the line between legitimate contenders and waiver-wire fodder is becoming clearer. This is a critical juncture where managers are tempted to overreact—chasing last week’s points, panicking over a […]

Buy Low, Sell High - Week 3 Fantasy Football Trade Values and Avoids

We got our second look at the landscape of the NFL, and while storylines are starting to take shape, there are opportunities that fantasy managers can take advantage of. The overreactions are still in play, which leaves the door open to trading busts and buy breakouts before it’s too late. Here are three players to […]

Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 3? DeVonta Smith, Calvin Ridley, Cam Skattebo, more

Hello again, RotoBallers, and welcome back to my fantasy football Warning Signals column for Week 3 of the 2025 NFL season -- my weekly exercise in hand-wringing over what to do with fantasy football rosters in the week ahead. As we enter Week 3, sample sizes are small, but a season could hinge on decisions […]

Tight Ends Start 'Em, Sit 'Em and Fantasy Football Trends for Week 3 (2025)

The tight end position can be one of the most challenging and frustrating for fantasy managers to figure out. There are often not many good options, and the differences between players can be incredibly small. And they don't often show up where we'd like to think they would. When it comes to other positions, more […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 3 (2025)

Week 2 is in the books. It's not the time to panic about underperforming players, but we need to examine why they're underperforming. Conversely, are there trends to follow that we need to monitor? The same question applies to overperforming players: are they here to stay? We have another week of data to analyze, which […]

The Cut List - Time to Let Go? Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 3

Welcome back to the Cut List for Week 3 of the 2025 fantasy football season. When it comes to the waiver wire and who we cut, we want to be bold, but not too reactionary. It's a fine line to walk. If we ignore concerning data points, we end up holding onto players too long […]

Dynasty League Cut List - Top Fantasy Football Drop Candidates for Week 3

In dynasty fantasy football, roster spots are currency. Whether it’s a small league with real value still on the waiver wire or one with huge rosters in which any relevant player is liable to be on a roster already, managers have to reasonably predict the future. The key part of this format is maximizing a […]

Biggest Fantasy Football Busts of the Week - Fantasy Outlooks for Derrick Henry, Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Marvin Harrison Jr., Matthew Golden, Mark Andrews

The second Sunday of the 2025 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 […]

Week 2 Fantasy Football Busts? Players Who May Disappoint (2025)

Hey, the opening week of games was fun! There were very few injuries (*knock on wood*), and with bye weeks still to come, fantasy managers can still mostly start the lineup they drafted. However, there will be overreactions to last week's stinkers and risers. An opening week boom week turning into a dud season is […]

Fantasy Football Sleepers, Avoids: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 2 - RotoBaller Staff Roundtable

As always, the opening week of the fantasy football season brought plenty of surprise boom and bust performances. Several big-name receivers were silenced in the opening week of the NFL season, while players like Quentin Johnston and Daniel Jones delivered big-time performances. It's important not to overreact to Week 1, but we can take those […]

Fantasy Football Landmines to Avoid for Week 2? Jaylen Warren, DeVonta Smith, Baker Mayfield, more

Week 1 is complete, and for some of you, it was a week of joy, while for others, it was a frustrating reminder of how quickly the game can humble you. Regardless of where you stand, the time for celebration or self-pity is over. The temptation is real: to overvalue a player who had an […]

Buy Low, Sell High - Week 2 Fantasy Football Trade Values and Avoids

Welcome back to my buy low, sell high trade targets for Week 2 of the 2025 season. The opening week of the NFL season is complete, and that means fantasy managers are overreacting to both the good and the bad. This opens up prime opportunities to sell players who overperformed and buy players who underperformed. […]

Booms and Busts - Fantasy Football Starts and Sits for Week 2 Lineups (2025)

Well, Week 1 has come and gone. Hopefully, you started your fantasy football season with a victory. If not, don't worry. 0-1 is not a huge deal, and there is plenty of time to turn things around. That starts with making some good lineup calls for Week 2. We'll do our best to help you […]

Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 2 - Kenneth Walker, James Conner, Josh Downs, more

Hello, RotoBallers, and welcome back to another season of fantasy football! How did you finish in Week 1? Is your team already firing on all cylinders? Or did some of your stars stumble out of the starting blocks? Did you have one of the 12 top-25 wide receivers (per Yahoo ADP) who failed to reach […]

Tight Ends Start 'Em, Sit 'Em and Fantasy Football Trends for Week 2 (2025)

The tight end position is a much more difficult one to decipher for fantasy football enthusiasts. That's because so often a touchdown can be the difference between finishing as a top-five tight end for the week and finishing outside the top-15. The difference between TE9 and TE20 can be incredibly small. In fact, the difference […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 2 (2025)

And just like that, we are officially back with our fantasy football risers and fallers for Week 2! The opening week of the 2025 NFL season is in the books.

Dynasty League Cut List - Top Fantasy Football Drop Candidates for Week 2

Welcome to my dynasty fantasy football cut list for Week 2 of the 2025 NFL season. Dynasty fantasy leagues, more than anything else, are about timing: when to buy, when to sell, and when to cut your losses. Sure, it helps to have good fortune here and there, and perhaps a couple of impatient league […]

The Cut List - Time to Let Go? Who to Drop for Fantasy Football Week 2

The opening week of NFL games is in the books, but it’s important we’re not too reactionary. Bad games happen. Flukey stuff happens, and when it occurs in the first week, it’s far more exaggerated, because we don’t have any other data to say, “yeah, but…”. So, as we look forward to this year’s first […]

Biggest Fantasy Football Busts of the Week - Fantasy Outlooks for Ja'Marr Chase, A.J. Brown, Nico Collins, Isiah Pacheco, Kenneth Walker, Tua Tagovailoa, more

The first Sunday of the 2025 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 […]

Week 1 Fantasy Football Busts? Players Who May Disappoint (2025)

The managers completed their research, the players have been drafted, and now there's one thing left to do before kickoff: Set the all-important Week 1 lineup. Week 1 may have the fewest roster decisions to make. You essentially set your lineup when you completed your draft, because bye weeks have yet to come into play, […]
