Awful weather conditions stifled plenty of offenses throughout the league in Week 16, leading to subdued fantasy totals across the board.

There were still some impressive performances throughout the NFL. Six different quarterbacks […]

If you look up “league winner” in the fantasy dictionary, you’ll see a picture of Marcus Jones. The Patriots' rookie cornerback (not to be confused with their two other corners, Jack Jones and Jonathan Jones) is the IDP version of Taysom Hill.

Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 16: Alexander Mattison, James Cook, Joshua Kelley, Romeo Doubs, Richie James

The waiver wire in deep leagues is a wasteland full of low-upside quarterbacks, wide receivers, and tight ends. Any player who booms will be picked up in even the shallowest of leagues, so we'll have to dive deep in these leagues. However, there are plenty of bench stashes that could be league-winners if an injury […]

Week 16 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

The second round of the fantasy football playoffs is set to begin, and no one wants to lose a fantasy matchup in crunch time thanks to a bust performance from a kicker. Bye weeks are in the rearview mirror, but it can still be tough to know who to start and who to sit in […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 16: Top Free Agent Adds Include Juwan Johnson, Taysom Hill, Noah Fant, Chigoziem Okonkwo

Where is Rob Gronkowski when you need him? Well, the good news is that fantasy footballers might not need him this week, even if they are as desperate for a tight end as Jakobi Meyers is to have that lateral back. If fantasy football leagues did not already begin their postseason, they are starting this […]

Top Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 16: Daniel Jones, Brock Purdy, Sam Darnold

All of the fantasy quarterbacks decided to wait until the playoffs began before they started putting up big numbers.

IDP Leagues Waiver Wire Pickups for Fantasy Football Week 16

Week 15 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Another week of going 50% in terms of hitting on our top 10 defenses. The Kyler Murray injury allowed New England to vault up, and the Cowboys let us down in shocking fashion against the Texans, finishing with just four points. It's another glaring reminder of just how hard it is to pin down defensive […]
