When does overreaction turn into simple acceptance? How long do smart managers wait on talent and ignore concerning usage, or health, before giving up and accepting it just may not happen this season? Colston Loveland has been a hot prospect all summer because he closed the 2025 season as the second-most dominant tight end in […]

Week 1 brought us the highest-scoring opening weekend in NFL history. Week 2 was much, much uglier. Between bad weather and sloppy play, Week 2 was a slog, especially the opening half of the early window on Sunday. When all was said and done, there were more risers than fallers, but some very notable names […]

Two weeks into the fantasy football season, we’re getting a much clearer picture of running back workloads. We’ve seen which players are dominating touches, which backfields are becoming committees, and which backs are earning valuable work in the passing game and red zone. Now, it’s about using that information without overreacting to a small sample […]

We’re starting to see which wide receivers are earning consistent targets and which ones are still searching for their role. Early-season production can be misleading, but target share, route participation, air yards, and red-zone usage give us valuable clues about where the fantasy opportunities are coming from. Week 3 also brings some very favorable matchups […]

Week 3 is where the early-season fantasy football picture starts to come into focus. We’ve now seen two games of usage, targets, routes, and red-zone opportunities, giving us a much better idea of which tight ends are actually involved in their offenses—and which ones are relying on touchdowns to save their fantasy weeks. At tight […]

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua was unable to suit up in Week 2 as he was dealing with a groin injury. However, the star wideout has not made much progress and is already in danger of missing Week 3. While it is still early in the week, the 25-year-old's status is now in […]

NFL Week 2 was filled with injuries. Caleb Williams avoided a major injury, but Jaxson Dart and Jayden Daniels look like they could be staring down extended time on the injury report. As such, their teams are suffering in the power rankings this week. With a couple of teams falling this week, there is an […]

During the dog days of summer, as we've crept up to six months since the Super Bowl, it's easy to forget about the negatives that come with football (reality and fantasy). Week 1 was a whirlwind -- a massive amount of points scored, an electric NFL RedZone Sunday, and the Cowboys losing in primetime. In […]

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins missed Week 2, and the Houston Texans couldn't get into the end zone in their 20-6 defeat at home against the Bengals without their star receiver. The loss dropped the Texans to 0-2, so they need Collins back as soon as possible from his injury. Collins' fantasy football managers […]

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., thus far in his career, has been speculated to be one of the biggest busts of all time. Through two games in 2026, the former No. 4 overall pick, once hyped as a generational talent at his position, has caught the ball a single time. The Cardinals don't exactly have […]

Many of you just experienced low-scoring whiplash after an electric Week 1, so now you're going to act rationally, yes? We join you to take a deep breath and get those […]

We've all felt the urge to rage-drop a particular player. Our emotions can sometimes get the best of all of us. However, when we're making waiver wire moves, they should be calculated and purposeful. Unfortunately, every new addition comes with a cost. Especially early in the season, we want to be confident in who we're […]

Week 1 brought plenty of fireworks. Unfortunately, Week 2 has been the opposite. It's been filled with awful weather, low-scoring contests, and more injuries than fantasy managers would like to count. The injuries will likely create a busy waiver week as teams scramble to find replacements. There may not be any league winners on the […]

Week 2 of the fantasy season reminded us that football can be brutal. Major injuries took out several quarterbacks (Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, and Jaxson Dart), running backs (Jadarian Price and Saquon Barkley), wide receivers (Malik Nabers, Mike Evans, and Alec Pierce), and tight ends (Dallas Goedert, David Njoku, and Eli Raridon). Those injuries could […]
