How Cordarrelle Patterson Is Winning Leagues
We are entering Week 5 and Cordarelle Patterson has started the season off strong. He has been one of the best waiver wire acquisitions of the season to this point. Is this legit?

Defenses to Stream AGAINST - Favorable Upcoming Matchups to Target
We're four weeks into the NFL season, which means that while we still don't know a lot about the teams in the league, we do know slightly more than we knew a month ago. For example, we have some data about defenses now, which means we can start to think about how we can target […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 5
Week 4 of the 2021 NFL season is officially in the books. Just like in Weeks 1, 2, and 3, overreactions will undoubtedly be made, but there's also a lot of good information we can use to help make decisions as we head into Week 5 and beyond. In years past, we'd be a quarter […]

Snap Count and Usage Analysis from Week 4
Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill set. A running […]

Fantasy managers who are off to a strong start to the year should begin taking a glance toward the latter months of the season at this point.

I can't believe it. Months of waiting, painful empty weekends, and now a quarter of the NFL season is suddenly gone! But I'm not going to lie, I love the moment when the whistle blows to end the week on Monday nights. It is just the confirmation that we have another full round of data […]

Key Fantasy Football Data from Week 4
Four weeks in the books! We have a serious amount of data to look at now for the season, and to me, this is where the fun really begins. Week four brought us some really disappointing performances from the early-season breakout names, as well as some very consequential injuries. It's always best to review the […]

Offensive Outliers From Week 4 - Coaching Matters
We now enter the fourth week of this series, where I dive into offensive areas that will improve or decline based on coaching in order to glean insight as to fantasy football value. In Week 4, we saw stat lines such as the Arizona Cardinals running backs combining for 170 rushing yards, the Houston Texans wide receivers getting just 13 […]

Offensive Line Champs and Chumps - Week 5
It has officially been four weeks of the 2021 season and NFL teams are being forced to figure out how much depth they have in their offensive line group. 19 teams started the week missing at least one of their starting offensive linemen from Week 1. In addition, 10 different teams had a starter go […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 5) - Targets and Avoids
You can't get a third down stop or fourth down stop without seeing some yellow laundry. It's an epidemic. I wrote about this last week and usually don't like to have the same lead two weeks in a row, but it's out of control. The referees don't stop calling holding and pass interference penalties. When […]

The Cut List – Time to Let Go? Week 5
It's tinker time! No matter what your record is after four weeks, it's important to keep looking to improve your roster. Don't let a dead weight linger on the end of your roster. Even if you're 4–0, you should always be looking to add productive players. Bye weeks are coming out and you can never […]

Michael Florio's Week 5 Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds
The waiver wire had been pretty thin to open the season, especially in deep leagues. Sure, there were weeks with one big piece to grab, but the chances are that in a 16-team league or deeper, people went very aggressive on that player, perhaps even spending all their FAAB on someone like Elijah Mitchell or […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5
The matchups of Week 4 delivered a blend of favorable and unwanted developments for managers. This included the return of Dalvin Cook and Darrell Henderson into their teams’ starting lineups. We also witnessed Chuba Hubbard’s first game as Carolina's primary back, while New England progressed through their first contest without James White operating as their […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5
2021’s first soap-opera storyline at the tight end position has forced fantasy footballers to scramble like Jalen Hurts. Rob Gronkowski’s ribs have caused a lot of pain for fantasy managers who have been left searching frantically for a replacement. For those fantasy players who did not have the foresight to have a suitable backup on their […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5
Through three weeks it seemed like defenses had the advantage in the NFL. However, Week 4 gave fantasy managers hope that the explosive offenses we saw for much of 2020 could get back on track again. 13 teams scored at least 27 points in Week 4 and 11 games went over a 40 point total. […]

IDP Leagues - Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 5
As is always the case, fantasy football is a war of attrition. You start the year healthy and optimistic, only to face Week 5 without six of your key starters. It can be completely backbreaking when you lose a major contributor like Cam Akers in the preseason, and it can be just as bad when […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 5 Lightning Round
Week 4 was a high-scoring affair and I'm sure some of you are seeking reinforcements despite dropping 150! Keep one foot on the ground and don't burn down the roster if you're above average in Total Points. The matchup variance will even out. That said, there are some key additions available in plenty of leagues. […]

Josh Gordon: Are We Doing This Again?
Josh Gordon is the fantasy football equivalent of this Grand Theft Auto meme. We know he's unlikely to have an impact on your fantasy season. We know he's unlikely to ever get close to his peak of 2013 again. We know there's a better chance he doesn't finish the season than there is of him being […]
