NASCAR DFS Prop Picks: South Point 400 - Monkey Knife Fight
Sunday night features the fourth race of the chase at Las Vegas. The South Point 400 is raced on the 1.5-mile tri-oval. Monkey Knife Fight has an extremely easy fantasy point system: 0.1 points for each lap led and then a set amount of points for their position (20 for 1st place, 19 for 2nd […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch in Week 3
Every week, this column will spotlight the first-year players who are ripe for a breakout performance. Oftentimes, rookies can provide some of the most value as under-the-radar options. Last week, we saw Arizona's rookie wideout Rondale Moore go off for seven receptions, 114 yards, and a touchdown. Moore joined fellow rookies Ja'Marr Chase, Jaylen Waddle, […]

FanDuel MLB Lineup Picks (9/25/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice
We have a nine-game slate on the blue site tonight as the season winds toward its final week. There are numerous ways to go with pitching tonight, but I strongly prefer paying up to get to one of the top hurlers as the opportunity cost of missing out on those raw points can't be overstated. […]

Inside the Tent - Week 3 NFL Injury Insight
At RotoBaller, we can't stress enough the importance of keeping up with injuries and playing your best lineup week after week. Players are going to get injured, that's an unavoidable fact. What's avoidable though is making the wrong roster decisions based on the injuries surrounding your fantasy team. If you want to dominate your leagues […]

Fantasy Baseball Injury Updates - Week 27
We have made it to the final week of the season. Fantasy leagues are winding down, playoffs (both MLB and fantasy league) are being decided. This week many players will be shut down even if they have only minor injuries. Other players are still returning to try to prove they still have "it" (Noah Syndergaard, […]

Thanks for sticking around all season. Depth charts […]

Finding Tight End Breakouts And Busts – Week 3 Edition
Here’s the thing, when it comes to tight ends ranked outside the top-six, there are going to be a lot of mistakes. The position is extremely volatile and even the best options are prone to some extremely big clunkers. Their roles can change significantly week-to-week. Very few guys have locked-in roles like Darren Waller and […]

Week 2 Snap Count and Usage Analysis
Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill-set. A running back […]

Offensive Line Champs and Chumps - Week 3
In terms of fantasy production, Week 2 featured several games that were expected to have high point totals, but just fell flat. For every matchup like Arizona/Tennessee, there was a game like Chicago/Cincinnati that left a lot of points on the board. Thankfully, everything has a purpose when it comes to fantasy football, so we […]

Offensive Outliers From Week 2 - Coaching Matters
We now enter the second week of this series, where I dive into offensive areas that will improve or decline based on coaching in order to glean insight as to fantasy football value. In Week 2, we saw stat lines such as the Cowboys running backs combining for 180 rushing yards, the Cleveland Browns wide receivers getting just five targets, […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Las Vegas Alsco Uniforms 302 (9/25/21)
The NASCAR Xfinity Series playoffs are finally here! The Round of 12 begins on Saturday night at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the first race of three to decide which eight drivers move onto the next playoff round. Austin Cindric and A.J. Allmendinger enter as the two title favorites, but anything can happen -- if you […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/25/21): MLB DFS Lineups
The Saturday split is about the same as last Saturday. There are six early games and nine games on the later slate. We have some good games with playoff implications here. We also have teams that have mailed it in and are using six pitchers for about five outs each. It really puts a dent […]

Below is our updated list of injured MLB players for September 25th, 2021. Only players on teams that are scheduled to play today will appear below […]

Justin Jefferson - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Through the first two weeks of the season, Jefferson is being outscored by not only Adam Thielen, but also by K.J. Osborn. That should at least be a little concerning, right? Since after all, Jefferson was taken as the sixth or seventh wide receiver off the board this season. Well, not so fast. Despite being […]

Robert Tonyan - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Although this could be considered a hot take considering the graveyard that the tight end position is, fantasy managers might want to look elsewhere for starting options instead of Robert Tonyan on the road facing the San Francisco 49ers. Last week, the 49ers held Dallas Goedert and Zach Ertz to a combined three catches for […]

Trey Sermon - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
It's been a wild ride for Trey Sermon, the San Francisco 49ers, their running backs and fantasy football managers. After being touted as a sneaky and savvy draft pick for fantasy football, Sermon was surprisingly scratched in Week 1 even thought he was healthy. Elijah Mitchell emerged, and then in Week 2 all three 49ers […]

Brandon Aiyuk - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Brandon Aiyuk was seemingly in Kyle Shanahan's doghouse in Week 1, a game in which he played just 47% of the snaps and ran just 15 routes. Shanahan made some comments that he wasn't fully healthy with the preseason hamstring injury, but also spoke about Aiyuk's preparation, and needing to get better. That led to […]

DK Metcalf - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Tyler Lockett has 278 yards and three touchdowns through two weeks. That's insane. But guess what, DK Metcalf has the same number of targets (16) and thus the same target share (30.8%). Lockett had these explosion games last season on a few occasions and then would vanish into oblivion in other games. While that may […]

Robert Woods - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Robert Woods' usage after Week 1 was concerning. He only ran a route on 68% of Matthew Stafford's dropbacks, seeing just four targets from the Rams' new quarterback. That was fewer targets than he had seen in any one game last season. He still caught a touchdown, which salvaged his week, but the usage was […]

Terry McLaurin - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Terry McLaurin showed fantasy managers why he was identified as a breakout star in Week 2 when he put 11 catches for 107 yards and a touchdown against James Bradberry and the New York Giants. The 26-year-old will match up with Tre’Davious White in Week 3, who is one of the best cornerbacks in the […]

Quintez Cephus - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
I love his name, and I loved his game Week 2 when he turned seven targets into four catches for 63 yards and a touchdown. Quintez Cephus has now scored in back-to-back weeks and appears to be the de facto No. 1 WR with injury-riddled Tyrell Williams sidelined with a concussion. With Detroit bound to […]

David Montgomery - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
With Justin Fields taking over as quarterback for Chicago, the offense as a whole should be able to get a significant boost moving forward. However, David Montgomery doesn't have a great outlook as the Bears travel to Cleveland to take on the Browns. With Fields under center, Montgomery could potentially lose some goal-line carry opportunities […]

Mike Evans - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
After a Week 1 dud, Mike Evans delivered for fantasy managers against the weak pass defense of the Atlanta Falcons, putting up five catches for 75 yards and two touchdowns. Once again, the extremely touchdown-dependent Evans is in for all he can handle against Jalen Ramsey on Sunday. Antonio Brown is likely out for this […]
