NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 1): Targets and Avoids

Get those Sunday excuses for your significant other ready because football is back baby! No need to stress about what your Sunday plans entail as football is the only thing to do from 1:00 PM to days end. I've been writing this column for years and I'm very excited to tackle another season of helping […]

The Method to the Matchups Madness - An In-Depth Look

Last year was my first year writing the matchups column for RotoBaller, and let me tell you it was a bear. Covering 12-14 games every week, and having to write about every single relevant player from each team is a time-consuming task no one should have to embark on. So when I signed up to […]


Week 1 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

It's Week 1 RotoBallers and today we're talking kickers. Kickers aren't the sexiest position, but they can help win you a week if their team's offense sputters in the red zone. With everyone looking to start their season strong, we're ranking the top 15 at the position to help you set your lineups. Greg "the Leg" […]


Thursday Night Football Matchups Analysis - Week 1

The wait is over ladies and gentlemen! Week 1 of the regular season is finally here and fantasy owners alike are anxious to see how their teams will develop. With all of the nerves and excitement, it's easy to forget how big of a role matchups play in deciding each players' fantasy fortunes. Thankfully, Rotoballer […]

RotoBaller fantasy football lead editor Pierre Camus (@pfunk00) and writer Chris Mangano (@ChrisMangano) give their start/sit recommendations at the tight end position for Week 1 of the fantasy football season.

Super Bowl Extravaganza - Prop Picks and Game Predictions

The Super Bowl is here, but did you know how it got its name? The first three Super Bowls were not called the Super Bowl, but rather the AFL-NFL World Championship Game. Per The Atlantic, "As the big game approaches we will once again be told that, as Wikipedia puts it, the name "Super Bowl" […]


Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Conference Championships

The AFC and NFC Conference championship games are here and so are the under-the-radar booms and busts! This is the weekend fans find out who they will be watching play football in between the Super Bowl commercials in two weeks! This is also probably the last weekend fantasy football lovers will really get to enjoy […]


Conference Championships Matchups - Fantasy Football Starts and Sits

While the fantasy season is over for most leagues, there's still plenty to play for. Whether you are in a playoff league or are just trying to win the milly maker on DraftKings, we've got you covered with the best and worst matchups. This week's matchup analysis will help answer all your start/sit lineup questions […]


Conference Championship Game Picks - NFL Playoff Predictions

Championship Sunday has arrived and boy did it take some dumb stupid coaching decisions to get here. I've been saying all year the Falcons inability to score in the red zone will cost them eventually. Last week I said, "if the Falcons don't begin scoring touchdowns [in the red zone], it will come back to haunt […]


Heroes and Zeroes - Conference Championship Fantasy Football Picks

It's hard to believe we have only one more weekend before the Super Bowl matchup is set. It could very well be a showdown between the top two seeds, which is something that hasn't happened since... well, it happened two years ago actually. For all the unpredictability the NFL brings, especially in the fantasy realm, […]


Seven Lineup Busts and Avoids for the Conference Finals

Four teams remain in the NFL playoffs after an eventful Divisional Round that was capped off by Stefon Diggs making a play that will forever endear him to Vikings fans. It was wild. It was wonderful. Even the non-football fans at a bar were amazed by it. The Case Keenum fan inside of me went […]


Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Divisional Playoff Round

Some football fans and experts label the Divisional Playoff round the best weekend of NFL football of the year, and it might be the best weekend for playoff fantasy football as well. Many of fantasy football’s top performers in 2017 will be on the field this weekend. But while Tom Brady, Antonio Brown, Le’Veon Bell, […]


Divisional Round Matchups - Fantasy Football Starts and Sits

While the fantasy season is over for most leagues, there's still plenty to play for. Whether you are in a playoff league or are just trying to win the milly maker on DraftKings, we've got you covered with the best and worst matchups. This week's matchup analysis will help answer all your start/sit lineup questions […]


Heroes and Zeroes - Divisional Round Fantasy Football Picks

I have to admit I'm a bit peeved that LeSean McCoy miraculously healed from his ankle injury in time to ruin my Marcus Murphy sleeper pick. Otherwise, I might have gone six-for-six on my Hero picks last week. Sure, Kareem Hunt didn't put up huge numbers, but he did score a touchdown to at least […]


Eight Lineup Busts and Avoids for the Divisional Round

The second round of the playoffs is here, which means that this is the final week in which we'll have four games going. Below is a potential bust for each team this weekend. Because there are so few teams in play, these players aren't necessarily potential busts in the same sense that they would have been […]


Divisional Round Game Picks - NFL Playoff Predictions

The best weekend of the NFL season is here. The Divisional Round usually pits the eight divisional champs against one another, if they win at home the week prior. This year only two of the four matchups are between division champs, Jags at Steelers, and Saints at Vikings. A quick word about Chiefs collapse against […]


Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Wild Card Round

The NFL regular season might be over, but the under-the-radar booms and busts will not stop until a team wins the Super Bowl! The wacky Wild Card weekend is upon football fans and fantasy players. This gives fantasy football addicts four games to concentrate on and a larger player pool to work with than later […]


Wild Card Weekend Matchups - Fantasy Football Starts and Sits

While the fantasy season is over for most leagues, there's still plenty to play for. Whether you are in a playoff league or are just trying to win the milly maker on DraftKings, we've got you covered with the best and worst matchups. This week's matchup analysis will help answer all your start/sit lineup questions […]


Heroes and Zeroes - Wild Card Fantasy Football Picks

Let's get straight to the point: you don't care that the NFL regular season is over because you're a fantasy football junkie and you need your fix. Who am I to deny you more fantasy goodness? There are several variations of playoff leagues, including best available, one-and-done, and salary cap style. Regardless of how you […]


Eight Lineup Busts and Avoids for Wildcard Weekend

It's officially playoff time. As you set your daily fantasy lineups and figure out your rosters for any other playoff formats you're in, it becomes even more important to make the right decisions with such a limited pool of players to choose from. Eight teams play this weekend, so for this week's column I'm going […]


NFL Playoff Picks: Wild-Card Weekend

After one of the wildest Week 17's in recent memory and what felt like an extremely short season, we've finally made it to the playoffs. The AFC is very weak. The wild card teams have no shot at reaching the Super Bowl. The four division champs do. Over to the NFC, all six teams can […]


Week 17 Matchups - Fantasy Football Starts and Sits

Welcome to our Week 17 matchups analysis and starts/sits column for fantasy football. We'll be covering every matchup from every Sunday game to help you make the best decisions for your fantasy lineups. We'll also be updating this as injury reports come in so check back often. Contenders in fantasy leagues with a Week 17 championship will know […]


Heroes and Zeroes - Week 17 Fantasy Football Picks

Nothing is over until we say it's over! These famous words, yelled emphatically by Bluto Blutarski, can and should be uttered by any fantasy commissioner forcing his leaguemates to play for anything meaningful in Week 17. If you are in need of lineup help for the most unpredictable set of games on any day of […]


Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 17

The final week of the NFL’s regular season is upon us, and whether you are in your fantasy league’s championship game or trying one last time to win thousands of dollars in a one-day contest, picking the right booms and busts is a must. My apologies for skipping out on last week’s column quicker than […]


10 Lineup Busts and Avoids for Week 17

It feels like there are even more teams than usual sitting their key players this year in Week 17. The Steelers, a team that just needs to beat the Browns and have New England lose to the Jets to secure home field advantage, are even thinking of getting in on the action, which is wild. […]


Week 17 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts: 2017 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

This is it! Bear in mind when reading this that things are going to be very screwy this week with many teams resting their best players for the playoffs and to reduce the risk of injury even if they're out of the playoffs. While this is being written on Wednesday, rankings may change drastically by Sunday […]


NFL Survivor League Picks (Week 17) - Game Predictions

It only took 16 weeks for the NFL to get back on its axis. That's right, Blake Bortles threw a pick-six. It was his first of the season and 12th since 2014, most in the NFL. We also saw more teams eliminated and watched the AFC South continue to leave a horrid stench and make […]


Fantasy Football Pop Quiz - Week 17 Lineup Questions

Before DFS became a known and popular entity in fantasy football gaming, there was Week 17. Sure, fantasy sports will always have some quality of unknown dart-throwing in it (Alvin Kamara, anyone?) but this week is sort of a horror show all its own. Did you ride a running back all the way to the […]
