Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7

The quarterback position struggled to provide much upside during Week 6, which unfortunately coincided with the first round of bye weeks in 2021. On the positive side, Dak Prescott was able to give us a rare 400-yard passing day in his overtime win against the New England Patriots. Patrick Mahomes (397 yards) just missed the […]

Week 6 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Coming off my worst week of the season, getting only five of the top-10 defenses right, I spent a lot of Monday thinking about what I had missed. How did New England fail against Houston? What did the Lions do to get into the top-10 against a strong Minnesota offense? As I was racking my […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Unfortunately, the injury bug has come back to bite some big-name running backs. If you managed to add Alexander Mattison a couple weeks ago or Damien Williams last week and roll with them in your lineup, you were a happy GM in Week 5. Will replacements for Saquon Barkley and Clyde Edwards-Helaire be similarly productive […]

Fantasy football managers’ worst fear of the year is here – the start of the dreaded bye weeks.

Week 6 marked the last week with a full complement of games before bye weeks start coming into effect.

IDP Leagues - Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

Like clockwork, every NFL season brings a new set of players who disappoint for weeks on end, only to explode on your bench.

Week 5 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

As the games concluded on Sunday, I was sure I had a terrible week. The Saints hadn't performed against the Giants, the Bengals fell short against the Jaguars, the Titans somehow lost to the Jets, and Washington laid yet another egg against a beatable offense. Yet, when I checked the Fantasypros DST rankings on Monday […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 5

We are one month into the fantasy football season. I sure hope your fantasy team’s season is not over already. Fantasy football general managers now have four weeks/games under their belts.

Week 5 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Fantasy managers saw seven kickers who failed to even score five points and another seven kickers who managed to score in the double-digits.
