Taysom Hill - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1 ANALYSIS: While Saints tight end Taysom Hill didn't have the best game in Week 1, the tight end position is grimmer than a Franz Kafka novel, and Hill has a nice rushing floor to lean on in an offense that wants to utilize him as a multi-talented weapon. He […]

Week 2 Kicker Rankings for Fantasy Football: Update Include Justin Tucker, Cameron Dicker, Chris Boswell, Younghoe Koo, Matt Prater, Jake Elliott, Jake Moody

Kickers are one of the most unpredictable positions in fantasy football, but most fantasy managers have been on the right and wrong side of a kicker spike week that can win or lose matchups. That said, we're here to help with our Week 2 fantasy football kicker rankings for the 2024 NFL season. Let's see […]

Romeo Doubs - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit In All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR6 ANALYSIS: The Colts have a weak defense (even more with starting safety Julian Blackmon ruled out) but the Packers are starting an inexperienced, inaccurate quarterback. Who wins? Malik Willis has started three games and appeared in a handful of others during his time in Tennessee. He […]

Jaxon Smith-Njigba - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4/Deep League Flex Play ANALYSIS: Smith-Njigba was one of the more popular sleepers coming into Week 1. Unfortunately, his first game was a complete disaster. Smith-Njigba only caught two passes for 19 yards on two targets. Many expected to see a larger passing output from Seattle […]

Joe Burrow - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 18+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB17 ANALYSIS: Joe Burrow is one of the best quarterbacks in the National Football League, but a tough matchup combined with a lack of cohesion for the Cincinnati Bengals early in the season makes him a sub-optimal choice at starting QB in Week 2. The Bengals […]

Is Jayden Reed Injured or Playing In Week 2? Should I Start Christian Watson For Fantasy Football?

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (shin/calf) had a massive game in Week 1, finishing as the WR1 overall for the week and scoring 33.1 PPR fantasy points. Reed showed dominance in both receiving and rushing, scoring touchdowns on the ground and through the air. Reed appears to be building off his 2023 season, […]

Colby Parkinson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1/2 ANALYSIS: One of the biggest beneficiaries of Puka Nacua's extended absence could be Colby Parkinson. The Rams brought in the tight end from Seattle to be their starter while Tyler Higbee recovers from a catastrophic knee injury. In his debut with Los Angeles, Parkinson tied […]

Boston Scott Cut Loose From Practice Squad

The Pittsburgh Steelers have released running back Boston Scott from their practice squad, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2. The veteran running back is now looking for his third team of the year after failed stints with the Steelers and Los Angeles Rams. His veteran presence and previous production in Philadelphia should help him earn […]

Justin Fields Expected To Start Through Week 3

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields is in line to start this Sunday against the Denver Broncos, and the team is also preparing for him to start in Week 3, according to Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Fields has been the Steelers' primary quarterback lately with Russell Wilson (calf) nursing an injury. Fields didn't score […]

Joey Slye Not A Reliable Fantasy Option For Week 2

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye will have his production limited in Week 2 due to the Patriots' reduced scoring impact. For example, DraftKings has the Patriots scoring around 17 points against the Seattle Seahawks, which leaves very few kicking chances for Slye. Given the state of the Patriots' offense, he'd likely need one or […]

Bucky Irving - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in Deep (14+ Team) Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3 ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving had a nice debut game against the Washington Commanders, carrying the ball nine times for 62 yards (good for 6.9 yards per carry) and had two catches for 14 yards, scoring 7.6 fantasy points. That kind […]

Patriots Defense A Worthwhile Option Again In Week 2

The New England Patriots' defense has put itself on the fantasy radar following a strong season-opening win on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals. In that contest, the unit forced one turnover and three sacks while holding the Bengals to just 224 yards of offense. Now, in Week 2, the Patriots will face the Seattle […]

Hunter Henry Nothing More Than A Desperation Fill-In

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has struggled to produce consistent fantasy points during his time with the team, including last week's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Now, in Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks, Henry remains far from a lock to see meaningful volume. The Patriots have placed an emphasis on letting their […]

K.J. Osborn Not A Lock For Production Sunday

New England Patriots wide receiver K.J. Osborn started on offense and led the team's receivers in snaps, targets, and catches last Sunday, but he's still off the fantasy radar heading into Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks. Last week, the Patriots emphasized a reliance on their defense and rushing attack to keep them competitive, and […]

Rashee Rice - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Backend WR1 ANALYSIS: It was an impressive opening game for Rice against the Baltimore Ravens defense. He finished with a 7-103 effort on 9 targets and finished as the PPR WR16 for the week. The only thing missing from this performance was a touchdown. Still, this was […]

Demario Douglas Still Held Back By Limited Volume

New England Patriots wide receiver Demario Douglas should be avoided in most fantasy leagues ahead of the team's home opener against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 2. Douglas has been one of the Patriots' most reliable pass-catchers since the middle of the 2023 season, but his volume has taken a hit with New England relying […]

Tyquan Thornton Off Fantasy Radar Despite Bigger Role

New England Patriots wide receiver Tyquan Thornton did start on offense in Week 1, but his No. 3 receiver role in an offense with minimal passing volume keeps him off the fantasy radar for the time being. Quite simply, the Patriots will rely on their defense and rushing attack to win games, and their passing […]

Rhamondre Stevenson A Must-Start Against Seattle

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson is coming off a dominant season-opening performance and has entered must-start territory ahead of Week 2 versus the Seattle Seahawks. Stevenson rushed 25 times for 120 yards last week, with the vast majority of his yardage coming after contact. He also found the end zone and caught three […]

Juwan Johnson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE15 ANALYSIS: Juwan Johnson emerged as the New Orleans Saints' primary receiving tight end in 2022 when he caught 42 passes for 508 yards and seven touchdowns. Last season, his production decreased. In Week 1, Johnson was only the fourth-leading Saints' receiving target. He had just […]

Jacoby Brissett Still Off Fantasy Radar For Week 2

New England Patriots quarterback Jacoby Brissett is one week removed from leading his team to a big upset victory on the road. Even after the Patriots' impressive win, Brissett is not a reliable option in fantasy football heading into Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks. New England won last game largely thanks to its defense, […]

Should I Pickup Demarcus Robinson or Tyler Johnson? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

Los Angeles Rams wide receivers Demarcus Robinson and Tyler Johnson are primed for larger roles in the offense after the injury to fellow receiver Puka Nacua. With Nacua's absence, a significant target vacuum opens up. Quarterback Matthew Stafford is still playing at a high level, and typically attempts enough passes per game to support at […]

Luke Schoonmaker Poised To Start In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys tight end Luke Schoonmaker is expected to start in Week 2 after Jake Ferguson (knee) was listed as doubtful to play. There had been some speculation that Ferguson might not miss any games after injuring himself last week, but it looks like he'll end up being held out for at least one contest. […]

Ben Skowronek Elevated To Active Roster

The Pittsburgh Steelers have elevated wide receiver Ben Skowronek from the practice squad to the 53-man roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. The 27-year-old was elevated last week, too, but only played on special teams. Pittsburgh will rely on its running game and defense to win games this year, so there isn't […]

Will Jameson Williams Play In Week 2? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams exploded for 24.4 fantasy points in his Week 1 game against the Los Angeles Rams. Williams was uncoverable, ripping off multiple explosive plays. The Lions receiving corps production in totality was a shock to the NFL world in Week 1, with WR Amon-Ra St. Brown recording just three catches […]
