It was Williams who came out on top in the end, moving the Bears to a 5-2 record. In this weekly series, I'll highlight […]

Streaming tight ends is simply a part of the game for many fantasy football managers. Aside from a very select handful of players, the position is rife with inconsistency and simply bad fantasy scoring. You can get an edge if you look to matchups to give you an idea of which players might be good […]

Quarterback is the highest-scoring position in fantasy football, yet it's also not terribly difficult to have success streaming the position. It's very difficult to predict which quarterbacks will finish in the top 10 at their position ahead of time due to a variety of factors. Looking at strength of schedule is a great way to […]

In a lot of my leagues, things have started to balance out. There are still top teams, but in the last two weeks, a lot of teams that started slowly picked up wins. There are a whole lot of 3-3 teams at the moment. That means that even if you got off to a slow […]

We have officially reached the midpoint of the 2026 fantasy football regular season, and the wide receiver market is growing thin.

Week 7 of the NFL season brings another difficult set of lineup decisions, especially with four teams on bye and several offenses struggling to find consistency. This week, several matchups have particularly low projected point totals, including Browns-Titans (37.5), Dolphins-Jets (39.5), Colts-Vikings (41.5), and Chiefs-Seahawks (42.5). Those aren't exactly the games we want to target. […]

Usage drives this Week 7 board. David Montgomery is out again, Ollie Gordon II returns from the Miami Dolphins' bye with rushing touchdowns in three consecutive games, and the Denver Broncos have given J.K. Dobbins 35 carries over their last two games. Volume can lie. Tony Pollard got a season-high 19 carries in Week 6 […]

We are only in October, but multiple key players' seasons have already ended.

While these may seem unlikely, these players have prime matchups to greatly outperform their projections. In this roundtable edition of bold predictions, see what RotoBaller writers have to say about Kyler Murray, […]

The majority of fantasy football managers are likely very familiar with streaming kickers. It often makes the most sense to ignore the position entirely in fantasy drafts and focus on skill position players. It's usually better to draft defenses before kickers, too, because there are usually a handful of NFL defenses that stay elite for […]

A pair of squads with serious postseason aspirations square off in Sunday night primetime action, as the Chiefs head to Seattle to face the defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks.
