To Handcuff, or Not To Handcuff?

I've been handcuffed more times than I care to admit. Unfortunately, never for "pleasure" (I have only three shades of grey). Before you ask, I'm not some felonious degenerate (though I know a few, and may or may not be related to a few more), there was just a time in my life where I […]

Week 12 Quarterbacks - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

It was another week full of excitement, tragedy, and confusion at the quarterback position.

No Patrick Mahomes or Jared Goff this week, as both […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 12 Lightning Round

Week 11 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

The New England Patriots put up 10 points, and the Buffalo Bills put up 41. In Week 10, the NFL remained unpredictable as ever, and that included the kicker position.

Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions

We're almost done with bye weeks, but Week 11 is another big one. Six teams will be on break which should again limit the number of waiver options available. It should but it won't, as this week will see several of the bottom dwellers in the league sitting out, namely the AFC East. This gives […]
