Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Marcus Mariota looks doubtful to play in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons. Mariota suffered a controversial hit to his knee in Week 6 against the Miami Dolphins.

Steve Smith Sr. Not Retiring After All?

If you own Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. in any dynasty or keeper leagues, you will find this news very interesting.

"I'm just trying […]

Keenan Allen Should Play Week 7

It sounds like San Diego Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen will play Week 7 against the Oakland Raiders after suffering a minor hip sprain against the Green Bay Packers in Week 6. Quarterback Philip Rivers has been locked onto Allen this season which has made him a fantasy football stud. If he's healthy, Allen should […]

Brandon Marshall Has Fourth Straight 100+ Yard Game

The Jets' acquisition of Brandon Marshall appears to be the best move of the offseason, for any team. The 31-year-old receiver had his fourth straight game of at least 100 receiving yards Sunday, hauling in seven receptions for 111 yards, and one touchdown in a 34-20 win against the Washington Redskins yesterday. Marshall has given […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Looks Good in Giants Loss

The status of New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was up in the air all week due to his hamstring injury. Beckham suited up and played in Monday night’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Fantasy owners who stuck with the stud receiver were rewarded early on as Beckham scored the first touchdown of […]

Andrew Luck Erases Doubt After Great Return

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck returned to the starting lineup on Sunday in a loss to the New England Patriots. Luck missed the prior two games due to a shoulder injury and struggled in the first few weeks of the season. Fantasy owners who selected Luck in the first round of drafts have been dealing […]

How Concerned About Antonio Brown Should We Be Without Ben Roethlisberger

Antonio Brown wants Ben Roethlisberger to come back, and badly. Ever since Big Ben injured his knee in Week 3, Brown's production has dropped dramatically. Prior to Ben's injury, Brown had a 35 game streak of at least five receptions and 50 receiving yards. In the three games since Roethlisberger's injury, Brown has only had […]

Has Blake Bortles Officially Become A Solid QB1 Option?

Jacksonville Jaguars' quarterback Blake Bortles had another solid game from a fantasy perspective yesterday against the Houston Texans, throwing for 331 yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions. He also added 37 rushing yards in the 20-31 loss. Despite the fact that the Jaguars are not playing all that well from a football perspective, their propensity […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick: No Brainer...For Now.

Ryan Fitzpatrick, welcome to the New York Jets offense, and welcome to your new spot on Fantasy Owner lineups around the world. One $600 loan unpaid and a broken jaw later, Ivy-Leaguer Ryan Fitzpatrick replaced Geno Smith as the starting quarterback and has led a surprising New York Jets team to a 4-1 start. Yes. […]

Josh Huff To Slip Under The Radar Against A Shaky New York Giants' Secondary

The first-place New York Giants arrive in Philadelphia without cornerback Prince Amukamara, and a secondary ranked last in passing yards allowed. Jayron Holsey will replace Amukamara, a tremendous difference in size and talent. This is a matchup Sam Bradford and the Philadelphia Eagles' wide receiver's have been waiting for, hoping for an offensive explosion against […]

Peyton Manning: Hasn't Been This Lost In Years

Sitting Peyton Manning in fantasy is like benching your own son during a Little League game. It shouldn't happen. But it may be time to do the unthinkable. After Denver's Bye this upcoming week, if fantasy owners have a favorable matchup with their backup quarterback, they should start their backup, and show Peyton a place […]

Dwayne Harris and Reuben Randle: Last Minute Starts

Dwayne Harris and Reuben Randle could receive plenty of attention during tonight's Monday night matchup against divisional rival Philadelphia Eagles. With star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr.'s status in question (hamstring,) Eli Manning and the resurgent New York Giants offense will look to Randle and Harris for production. Philadelphia's defense has given up the third […]

Matthew Stafford Goes From Zero to Hero in Week 6

For Matthew Stafford, it's hard to image 2015 being any more of a roller coaster ride than it has been. Stafford and the Detroit Lions had gotten off to a brutal 0-4 start before a home game against the Arizona Cardinals. To that point, Stafford put together a total of five touchdowns against five interceptions, […]

Jonathan Stewart Finally Has His Breakout Game

Prior to today, this season has been a disaster for Jonathan Stewart owners . The University of Oregon product, who was thought by many to be an RB1, bellcow-type back this year with the departure of DeAngelo Williams, has grossly underperformed this season, causing some owners to bench or cut him. Today though, the Carolina Panthers' back changed his […]

Tests on Ty Montgomery's Ankle Come Back Negative

Tests done on Green Bay Packers wide receiver Ty Montgomery have come back negative. The rookie left the Packers Week 6 game against the San Diego with an ankle injury that seemed serious at the time. However, the tests have proved that Montgomery didn't suffer any structural damage. The rookie likely has a severe sprain […]

What's Going On With Eddie Lacy?

Fantasy Owners of Eddie Lacy should start to consider picking up back-up running back, James Starks, if they haven't already done so. On Green Bay's first offensive possession yesterday against the San Diego Chargers, it was was Starks, not Lacy, who jogged onto the field alongside Aaron Rodgers. And it was Starks who out-rushed Lacy […]

Jeremy Hill Out-Snaps Giovani Bernard in Week 6

Jeremy Hill played 35 snaps to Giovani Bernard's 25 snaps in the Cincinnati Bengals Week 6 win over the Buffalo Bills. That's quite a difference from Week 5 when Bernard had three-times as many snaps as Hill. Both Bernard and Hill can be considered RB2's going forward. Bernard actually has more fantasy value than Hill […]

Eddie Lacy Is Banged Up, Likely in a Timeshare Going Forward

Eddie Lacy did not make his fantasy football owners very happy during his Week 6 matchup against the San Diego Chargers. The first-round fantasy football draft pick only saw four carries out of the backfield for three yards while James Starks had 10 carries for 112 yards and a touchdown. After the game Packers head […]

DeAndre Hopkins Making a Legitimate Case as Top NFL Wideout

While fans simply rave about Julio Jones and his 49 catches for 638 yards and four touchdowns (rightfully so), he may have some competition for the best wide receiver in the NFL. While the Houston Texans are sitting with just a 2-4 record, you simply can't overlook the season that DeAndre Hopkins is putting together. […]

Let Andre Ellington Warm Your Bench

With Arizona Cardinals running back Andre Ellington playing just 9-of-72 offensive snaps on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, he is no longer worth any starting consideration. Chris Johnson is clearly the team's starting running back. He played 39 offensive snaps. Meanwhile, rookie David Johnson played 23 snaps. It's possible that Ellington isn't 100 percent healthy […]

Alshon Jeffery Shines in Return to Action, but Bears Still Lose in Overtime

Alshon Jeffery returned to action on Sunday for the Chicago Bears, posting a stat line of eight receptions for 147 yards and a touchdown. He garnered 11 targets from Jay Cutler in a shootout with the Detroit Lions, and while his stellar effort was squandered in an overtime loss, the Bears have to feel good […]

Martavis Bryant Explodes in 2015 Debut

Martavis Bryant was suspended for the first four games of the 2015 season, and then missed an additional game last week due to a knee injury. Bryant finally saw the field on Sunday, and while he was mostly quiet (along with the rest of the Steelers' offense) with Mike Vick under center, things changed in […]

Percy Harvin Not Expected in London

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Percy Harvin is not expected to make the trip to London with his teammates for their Week 7 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Harvin is currently dealing with a hip injury and according to CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora, he could miss "significant time." Considering Harvin's injury history, his fantasy football […]

Julian Edelman Can’t Help But Find the End-Zone

New England Patriots’ wide receiver Julian Edelman can’t help but find the end-zone. Last night, Edelman turned in yet another stellar performance catching 6-of-10 targets for 50 receiving yards and a touchdown in the Patriots’ redemptive win over the Indianapolis Colts. Though the Colts were clearly outmatched by the defending Super Bowl champions, Sunday night’s […]

Donte Moncrief Outshines T.Y. Hilton, Yet Again

In Sunday night’s Week 6 loss against the New England Patriots, Indianapolis Colts’ wide receiver Donte Moncrief successfully brought in 6-of-11 targets for 69 total receiving yards and a touchdown. While nothing out-of-this-world, Moncrief’s solid numbers were enough to have him statistically, once again, outplaying standout wide receiver T.Y. Hilton. As arguably the best highlight […]

Though Nabbing a Touchdown, Gronkowski Relatively Quiet In Patriots’ Win

Generally speaking, New England Patriots’ wide receiver Rob Gronkowski is a force to be reckoned with out on the field. In Sunday night’s Week 6 victory over the Indianapolis Colts, however, he was relatively tame. Still, Gronkowski managed to score a touchdown to help his team seek revenge against the accusatory Colts, thus putting a […]

Danny Amendola’s Big Week 6 Performance Little More Than an Outlier

Though successfully securing 7-of-9 targets for a total of 105 receiving yards in the New England Patriots’ Week 6 win over the Indianapolis Colts, it’s unlikely Danny Amendola’s performance was little more than a statistical outlier. Not only did seven of Amendola’s Tom Brady targets come in the first half, but so too did 87 […]

Melvin Gordon Benched for Fumbling

San Diego Chargers running back Melvin Gordon will need to learn how to hold onto the football if he wants to become the team's lead back. Gordon, who had just seven carries for 29 yards on Sunday, didn't get a single carry after halftime due to a pair of first-half fumbles. The Chargers have plenty […]

Once Again, Andre Johnson Fails to Live Up to His Name

As a member of the Houston Texans, believe it or not, Andre Johnson was widely considered one of the better receivers in the NFL. If you’ve just started following him this year, more than likely, you’re wondering how this ever could’ve been. Once again, taking a backseat in the Indianapolis Colts’ Week 6 loss to […]
