If you only play redraft fantasy football, you know that no matter what you have to play your studs week in and week out. That is non-negotiable, and your lineup decisions mostly come down to who to play at lower-level spots such as WR3 or FLEX. If you play DFS contests, though, you know that […]

Week 8 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 7 was relatively successful with seven correctly predicted top-10 defenses after the Los Angeles Rams strong effort on Monday night.

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 8) - Targets and Avoids

Underdogs went 8-5 against the spread with four outright upsets. The biggest was the Cardinals +3.5 beating the Seahawks. The Chargers gave many remaining entrants a scare when they fell behind in […]

How Much Attention Should We Give WR/CB Matchups?

Depending on who you ask, you will get widely varying answers. Some fantasy GMs pay attention to opposing defenses as a whole, while others try to get a step further but looking at individual cornerback matchups.

Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis: Rams vs Bears

After salivating over the high scoring potential of fast-paced offenses last week, Week 7’s Monday night matchup feels downright underwhelming. The Bears (5-1) and Rams (4-2) both come in with winning records and early season playoff aspirations. Both teams feature stout defenses, so this game may be more of a slugfest than a shootout. However, […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 7) - Targets and Avoids

It started off as a great day of football but the decision to have just two 4 p.m. games quickly backfired when the Dolphins-Jets and Bucs-Packers became blowouts after the first quarter. Another decision that is still, and will continue to be, scrutinized is the Texans decision to go for two. It was the right […]
