The waiver wire is a source of both great pleasure and great pain for fantasy football managers. It can be a nightmare constantly tracking the injury statuses and projected production of a lot of players on the fantasy roster bubble every week. It's difficult to predict exactly when certain players will break out, of course, […]

Hey RotoBallers! It's almost time to set our next round of fantasy lineups. With the fantasy season past the halfway point, it's even more important to win your matchups and secure a postseason spot. One way to gain an edge in your matchup is to target a kicker in a favorable matchup. In this piece, […]

The quarterback position is a perennial favorite of super-into-it fantasy football managers who want to focus on skill positions in their drafts. It often pays off. Not only are there several QBs each year that seemingly "come out of nowhere" and become must-start players at their position for long stretches of the season, but streaming […]

Another profitable year locked up! We're down to the final race of the season, as the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race is this Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

We have officially entered the backstretch of the 2026 fantasy season, as managers look to peak at the right time. At this point, we have a pretty good idea of who the breakouts and busts are, but there are always a few sleepers who emerge in Weeks 15, 16, and 17. Last week, we bounced […]

Chase Brown has not scored a touchdown since Week 1, but I am starting him against the Atlanta Falcons in Madrid. His eight catches against Tennessee were worth more in PPR than his entire rushing line. He gets an Atlanta defense that Tampa Bay ran through last week. Braelon Allen presents the tougher decision. He […]

Start 'Em, Sit 'Em for Week 9. This week, we've got two teams on bye (Steelers and Titans). I'm subbing in for the great Adam Koffler for the next couple of weeks, so let's try to steer you in the right direction. Last week, Adam had some solid calls, including Rachaad White as a start […]

Jonah Coleman just helped the Denver Broncos beat the Kansas City Chiefs with 104 scrimmage yards and the winning touchdown. Javonte Williams gained only 56 rushing yards for the Dallas Cowboys, but still handled 24 carries. Denver's favorable matchups extend into December. Dallas gets a good month before a much harder playoff draw, while the […]

The top few of them […]

Malik Willis threw two touchdown passes across Miami's first five games. He has matched that total in each of his two appearances since the bye, making him my first Week 9 streaming choice against Detroit. His recent passing improvement matters after a quiet rushing performance against New England. Seattle plans to start Drew Lock against […]

Mike Gesicki has scored in five straight games, while Greg Dulcich has collected 13 catches over his last three appearances without a touchdown. Dulcich's steadier volume gives him the edge in PPR; Gesicki brings the stronger touchdown case. The Pittsburgh Steelers and Tennessee Titans are on bye, leaving Pat Freiermuth managers searching for a replacement. […]

The NFL season approaches the halfway point with a beautiful 11-game slate for the main DFS fantasy football contests on Sunday's Week 9 main slate.

Chase McLaughlin keeps turning the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' stalled drives into fantasy points. He enters Week 9 without a missed field goal, but Sunday's road matchup with the Chicago Bears presents a tougher assignment before the Buccaneers take their bye. That leaves a choice between his immediate value and a longer commitment elsewhere. Drew Stevens […]

Pittsburgh has the most favorable remaining schedule for wide receivers in this analysis. Houston has the best fantasy-playoff run. Buffalo sits at the opposite end, with a difficult month ahead and two especially tough matchups during Weeks 15–17. The opportunities are different, too. DK Metcalf is coming off a one-catch game, while Luther Burden III […]
