Fantasy football is a war of attrition. You just have to still be standing there when the dust settles in December. Our RotoBaller analysts are here every week with potential sleepers and busts ahead of the remaining Week 7 games. We do this every week! The goal is to give you the confidence you need […]

Week 7 is here, folks! We saw a battle between two of the NFL's biggest rising stars on Thursday Night Football, as Caleb Williams and Drake Maye both had outstanding performances. It was Williams who came out on top in the end, moving the Bears to a 5-2 record. In this weekly series, I'll highlight […]

We have reached Week 7 of the 2026 NFL season, and the early-season noise has started to settle into something more reliable, which is exactly why spotting the boom-or-bust options matters more than it did a month ago. Six weeks of usage, target share, and actual game scripts give you a clearer picture of who […]

Week 7 of the NFL season brings another difficult set of lineup decisions, especially with four teams on bye and several offenses struggling to find consistency. This week, several matchups have particularly low projected point totals, including Browns-Titans (37.5), Dolphins-Jets (39.5), Colts-Vikings (41.5), and Chiefs-Seahawks (42.5). Those aren't exactly the games we want to target. […]

Hi again, RotoBallers. Hard to believe, but most NFL teams have already played through a third of their schedules. Now that Week 7 is upon us, it’s time for another look at Warning Signals that might save us from players who could spoil our upcoming fantasy football matchups. Warning Signals come in many forms and […]

Hey RotoBallers! With injuries piling up and bye weeks in full swing, managers may have little room to hold onto struggling assets. Entering Week 7, many high-end players have hit the IR, including Terry McLaurin and Davante Adams just this past week, leaving managers scrambling to fill their lineups. As a result, it's time to […]

We are quickly approaching the halfway mark of the fantasy football regular season, a good time to review key statistics to predict future tight end success. In this week's article, we'll look at several statistics from two angles: raw and per-snap. Ultimately, the raw numbers matter most. If your favorite tight end averages the most […]

14 games. 28 teams in action. Just one player scored 30+ PPR fantasy points. The lack of explosive performances was Week 6's biggest storyline. Christian McCaffrey, on Monday Night Football, saved the week from the dubious accolade. Still, several players had surprising and encouraging games across the league, and, of course, the not-so-great one. The […]

We are now officially one-third of the way through the NFL regular season and nearly halfway through the regular season of most fantasy football leagues. This also means we are rapidly approaching fantasy trade deadlines, which most commonly fall in Weeks 11 or 12. If your fantasy team needs reinforcements or upgrades, act fast—the window […]

With injuries mounting week after week, it's getting harder and harder to find players to cut. Do they have two working legs and a heartbeat? If so, I want 'em! That's obviously an exaggeration, but seriously, you want me to drop Jaylen Waddle? I just lost Mike Evans, Terry McLaurin, and Davante Adams! With bye […]

Week 6 of the 2026 NFL season had a little bit of everything, including a nail-biter in London and near-comeback efforts from the Giants and Falcons. We continued to see several big performances from top players, as well as some huge bounce-back showings from players who disappointed last week. However, Week 6 wasn't a memorable […]

It's hard to believe it's already Week 6. Time flies when you're having fun, right? With four teams on bye and many noteworthy injuries, there are so many lineup decisions to be made. You're in the right place! We got back on track in Week 5 after a rough Week 4 showing. Braelon Allen and […]

Thursday Night Football is the enemy of fantasy football. Jaxon Smith-Njigba was the only player who managed to score more than 14.7 PPR points in the Broncos vs. Seahawks matchup, and Bo Nix once again "found a way to win" with 4.0 yards per attempt. He now has 13 wins in games with 6.0 yards […]

Five weeks into the 2026 NFL season, we're starting to see which fantasy players are reliable for our lineups and which ones require us to make tough choices. Injuries are changing offenses across the league, bye weeks are making lineup decisions more difficult, and some big-name players are becoming increasingly hard to trust. This year's […]

Don't let injuries and underperforming players bring you down! Every week is a new challenge in fantasy football, and our RotoBaller analysts are back to break down potential sleepers and busts ahead of the remaining Week 6 games. We do this every week! The goal is to give you the confidence you need to make […]

Five weeks in, the numbers have started to separate the real roles from the ones that were just a good Sunday. Week 6 still has a clear split on the board. Buffalo at Las Vegas sits near 53.5 total, Dallas at Green Bay is priced around 52.5, and both Arizona-Rams and the Monday night Commanders-49ers […]

Welcome to Week 6 of fantasy football, RotoBallers. To accompany the start of another week of NFL action, I have a fresh edition of Warning Signals. Here, I focus my attention on players who I worry could play spoiler for upcoming fantasy matchups. Sometimes warning signals can be seen when reflecting on a recent performance. […]

Hey RotoBallers! With many breakout players and high-end handcuffs on the waiver wire, managers may need to cut ties with a non-producing player whose stock has dropped to improve their roster. While it may be difficult to drop these once-proven assets, they have not contributed much to your roster, and managers looking to get ahead […]

At this point in the NFL regular season, fantasy football managers should have a pretty good idea of their rosters' strengths and weaknesses. Offseason hype and preconceived notions can mostly be disregarded now, as most teams have provided five weeks of actual data we can evaluate. As a result, I expect my trade advice in […]

Welcome back to the Week 6 edition of my 2026 fantasy football risers and fallers series. From the last-second field goal in London to the debacle near D.C., it was a wild week of NFL finishes. Forgettable performances came with those memorable moments. The players in this weekly article aren't necessarily the week's best and […]

As good as some tight ends have been this season, more than a handful have been semi-to-massive disappointments. Unfortunately, disappointment only happens when expectations are high. Looking back at preseason ADP (average draft position), five tight ends have been a negative investment so far. This week, we're focusing on these five early-season disappointments. Call this […]

We're creeping towards the halfway point of the fantasy football season. At this point, we can feel pretty darn comfortable that what we've seen is what we're going to get. Cue the Dennis Green, "they are who we thought they were!" meme. Sure, maybe we didn't think Jaylen Waddle would be this boom-or-bust WR3, but […]

Hey RotoBallers! Even though the waiver wire is often bare in dynasty formats, after a major trade or an injured player returns from the IR, managers may have to cut ties with players they hoped to stash for the foreseeable future. Through the opening five weeks, we have learned the importance of not cutting players […]

Week 5 of the 2026 NFL season had a little bit of everything, as we saw a handful of upsets and a pair of exciting overtime finishes. We continued to see several big performances from top players, as well as some huge bounce-back showings from players who disappointed last week. However, Week 5 wasn't a […]

Week 5 is here, and what an upset! The Tampa Bay Buccaneers got their first win of the season, with Bucky Irving carrying the team on his back and head coach Todd Bowles buying more time, for now at least. The Cowboys are puzzled: are they good enough to make the playoffs? Anyway, it's now […]

It's hard to believe we're almost a quarter of the way through the 2026 NFL season. But here we are, entering Week 5, a make-or-break week for a lot of fantasy managers. Last week, our start calls weren't the best. Mack Hollins looked like he was going to crush it, but suffered a mid-game injury, […]

Four weeks is enough to stop treating every spike like a trend. Week 5 still has a split personality. Detroit at Arizona and Buffalo at the Rams both sit near a 54.5 total, with the Lions’ implied team total around 30 and the Rams near 28.5, the two highest marks on the board. Houston at […]

Four weeks into the NFL season, it's becoming easier to identify the bad matchups and fantasy football landmines. Last week, we were essentially nine-for-10 in selecting busts. As we have seen, a difficult matchup, a change in offensive philosophy, or an injury to a teammate can turn a reliable starter into a lineup bust. This […]

Don't get caught off guard like the Dallas Cowboys did last night! Our RotoBaller analysts are back to break down potential sleepers and busts ahead of the remaining Week 5 games. We do this every week! The goal is to give you the confidence you need to make tough calls, moving a player with a […]
