The Portland Trailblazers - Fantasy Basketball Draft Sleepers

When Lamarcus Aldridge left Portland this summer, many people probably dismissed the entire Trailblazers team for fantasy purposes.  That would be a mistake.  Although the loss will hurt the actual team, it may be a huge blessing for the remaining players on the team in terms of fantasy value.  Along with Aldridge, they also lose Wes […]

Fantasy Football Stock Up: Matthew Stafford, Andrew Luck, DeMarco Murray, Allen Robinson

Matthew Stafford – QB, Detroit Lions He's alive? I mean, okay it was against the Chicago Bears, but all the same it has to be heartwarming to see that Stafford can still actually make the throws. He completed 27 of 42 attempts for 405 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. So this performance was pretty much the […]

Robert Covington (SG/SF, PHI) - Fantasy Basketball Draft Sleepers

During their lengthy and controversial rebuild, the Sixers have been a fantasy goldmine for quick pick-ups of overlooked players. They might not field the best roster, but the Sixers have to give minutes to someone, and minutes often lead to value. Robert Covington might be more than just a quick add, though. His length and […]

Eric Gordon (SG, NO) - Fantasy Basketball Draft Sleepers

Despite all the injury woes Gordon's dealt with, he actually played over 60 games in each of the past two seasons.  Although he hasn't topped 20 points per game since the 2011-2012 season, his peak ability has always been there, tempting fantasy owners to draft him.  Past disappointments aside, this may be the year he […]

Ryan Anderson (PF/C, NO) - Fantasy Basketball Draft Sleepers

Watch out for Ryan Anderson this year.  He’s had injuries and struggled to start over the past few seasons, but as a PF who has shown he can shoot over 40% from the three-point line on high volume, he is a valuable commodity for any NBA team.  He should especially do well in Alvin Gentry’s […]

Tyson Chandler (C, PHO) - Fantasy Basketball Draft Sleepers

Chandler’s reputation has suffered from a down year with the Knicks.  But who can really blame him, really.  The 2013-2014 Knicks were a disaster, and only look respectable in comparison to the absolute catastrophe that was the 2014-2015 season.  Tyson turned it around once he was traded back to Dallas where he won his only […]

Dan Haren Retires

Fantasy Football Stock Down: Peyton Manning, Melvin Gordon, Brandin Cooks

Peyton Manning – QB, Denver Broncos There is very little to see here anymore. Yes, his receivers had a few key drops that would have bolstered Manning's stat line in Week 6. But at the end of the day this was an offense with plenty of firepower against a Cleveland defense that was missing its top two […]

Gordon Hit In Face During Batting Practice

Kansas City Royals outfielder Alex Gordon was hit in the face with a ball during batting practice on Thursday. Gordon suffered a bloody nose but manager Ned Yost said he is otherwise fine.

Sit Collin Kaepernick and Anquan Boldin vs Seahawks

Quarterback Colin Kaepernick and the San Francisco 49ers will host the Seattle Seahawks in Thursday night's matchup.  The two teams have exchanged words in the past and are seen as bitter rivals, so this matchup is always an exciting one to watch.

Matt Jones and Alfred Morris to Split Carries; DeSean Jackson Likely Out Week 7

Washington Redskins rookie running back Matt Jones is practicing again after missing Week 6's game against the New York Jets with a toe injury.

Fantasy Football Stock Down: Randall Cobb, Eddie Lacy, Joseph Randle

Randall Cobb - WR, Green Bay Packers Randall Cobb's first three weeks were great for his owners, capped by a three touchdown performance Week 3. Since Week 4 it has been a different story. "Randall Cobb with cable" type of stuff is going on. In the past three weeks Cobb has seen 19 targets and reeled in […]

Wide Receivers Sending Out Warning Signals Going Into Week 7

Heading into Week 7, plenty of wide receivers have already solidified themselves as either stars or scrubs by now. Obviously the players who round out the opposing ends of that spectrum are the ones drawing the most attention, but I'd like to take a second to point something out real quick. As I said last […]

Jordan Matthews Understands Your Frustrations

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews wants his fantasy football owners to know that he understands why they're upset with him this season.

Week 7 Fantasy Football Risers, Fallers and Trade Candidates

Through six weeks of the NFL season, no player has risen faster than Devonta Freeman, the clear breakout star of the fantasy season. While the guy that hastily drafted him in the 12th round before eating his 24th chicken wing reaps the benefits, the rest of us are stuck picking through the waiver wire, looking […]

Thursday Night NFL Matchups Analysis: Week 7 Start/Sit for Fantasy Football

The Seattle Seahawks defense has allowed game-winning drives in the closing moments of back-to-back games against the Cincinnati Bengals and Carolina Panthers. Staring at a 2-4 record and an early matchup with division rival San Francisco 49ers, the quest to appear in three straight Super Bowls is looking shaky. Aside from their real-life scenario, there's also the […]

Tyrod Taylor and Sammy Watkins Out Week 7 vs. Jaguars

Both Tyrod Taylor and Sammy Watkins would have had great matchups for their fantasy football owners this week against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Unfortunately, the Bills have already ruled both guys out for Week 7. Taylor is dealing with a knee injury while Watkins is dealing with an ankle injury. It looked like Taylor had a […]
