Let's turn the page to Week 10 after another up-and-down weekend of NFL play.

Fantasy managers gearing up for the stretch run can get ready with our […]

Hey RotoBallers, the weekend is here, and it's time to scout the waiver wire for some potential pickups to help bolster your fantasy roster.

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, […]

While you probably won't ever be able to pick them up off waivers, and it might be difficult to swing a trade for a single one of them in any of your fantasy leagues, the top-12 fantasy football running backs are undoubtedly extremely important to the outcome of fantasy leagues. The top few of them […]

Fantasy managers get a break from the bye week blues; however, the injuries never stop. Surviving those continues to be the theme of the season. Your job each week is to set the strongest lineup that you possibly can. In one league of mine, a team last week tried to set an incomplete lineup, choosing […]

Hey RotoBallers! Another slate of NFL action kicks off in a few days! While most are focused on setting their optimal lineups, managers in an inch may need to cut ties with a full year in order to fill their starting lineup. In this piece, we will look at four underperforming players who are viable […]

Hey RotoBallers, we are back with more updated waiver wire advice. It's Week 9, and fantasy managers should scout the waiver wire for players who can help with that playoff push or add a high-upside bench or injury stash. Only the Steelers and Titans are on bye this week, so there are more streamers to […]

After weeks of watching players drive us crazy and finally reaching a point where we're comfortable sending them to the waiver wire, we still have to wait until the NFL trade deadline. Several players who have graced this series throughout the year are now subject to trade talks. Historically speaking, midseason NFL trades rarely mean […]

The fantasy season is officially halfway over. We are starting to see some players earn bigger roles, others get their workloads reduced, and teams across the league navigate injuries. The fantasy playoffs are starting to come into focus. Regardless of how your team started, everybody still has a chance to find a way into their […]

Gather around and let's discuss how to best use what's left in those FAAB wallets after yet another loopy week of NFL action. We saw a slate-altering injury, more weather-marred games, and plenty of duds that kicked some of our rosters around. But we know that one week does not define a season, and now […]

It's November, and amazingly we're already in Week 9! In most fantasy leagues, about five weeks remain in the regular season, so there is still plenty of time to make a playoff push. The Steelers and Titans are the only teams on a Week 9 bye. At RotoBaller HQ, we get a head start on […]

Welcome back, RotoBallers, to our Cut List Rankings for fantasy football Week 9 of the 2026 NFL season.

This gives us a chance to take stock of potential waiver adds in both shallow and deep leagues alike. Let's see what the early adds look like […]

Every week, every week, there is something. This week, we saw Ashton Jeanty essentially get benched, more or less, for the rookie Mike Washington Jr. This backfield just got a whole lot messier. Will this stick or was it a one-week blip? Fantasy managers can't be sure, which makes this situation even more challenging. Fantasy […]

Each week, it's important to stay on top of the waiver wire, but especially with wide receivers. That's because this is a position where you're most likely to find major value. We've already seen it so far this year with rookies like Omar Cooper Jr. and Germie Bernard. At the same time, we also have […]

Happy Halloween! October will be in the books, and we are already more than halfway through the fantasy football regular season.

Week 8 features another four teams on bye, and there are still some injuries to deal with. However, the more challenging aspect of this week is that many of the top offenses are in extremely tough matchups. In some instances, you will ride with the big name. However, some may want to avoid and stream […]

We're at the point in the season where a player's name value and where you drafted them no longer matter. You are now whoever you've shown yourself to be over the first seven weeks. The other stuff is no longer a selling point. It's no longer a consideration. Plenty of big names made the Cut […]

The Texans, Saints, Giants, and 49ers have a bye this week, giving fantasy managers plenty of hurdles to clear to set a strong lineup, on top of the ever-growing injury list. Luckily, for the most part, we made it out of Week 7 mostly unscathed, Monday Night's game notwithstanding. Knock on wood. The waiver wire […]

For most, Week 8 signals the halfway point of the fantasy football season. Whether your team started hot or has disappointed, you still have plenty of time to fortify your roster and make a playoff push. Navigating injuries and bye weeks is crucial to fantasy success. Identifying waiver-wire players with increased roles who are flying […]

We head into Week 8 on the heels of another lesser week that saw a second straight week of roughly 44 points scored per game compared to about 48 in Weeks 3, 4, and 5. The grind won't get any easier with another four-team bye week in our faces, so you better be ready to […]

Week 7 showed the impact of the waiver wire, especially at wide receiver. Omar Cooper Jr. stole the spotlight with another huge game, looking like an early waiver-wire league winner who could make a major impact down the stretch. That's the beauty of the waiver wire. Players who weren't even on the fantasy radar a […]

Week 7 brought more scoring in the early slate, but "National Tight End Day" still left many of you with lackluster scoring out of some premier names as we look toward Week 8. Let's take an initial pass with our eyes on the horizon to offer up names for both shallow and deep leagues alike. […]

Week 8 benches deserve a second look after Week 7's surprise ceilings. Tony Pollard scored three touchdowns against the Cleveland Browns, and a Browns rookie piled up 152 scrimmage yards in the same game without reaching the end zone. Tre Tucker drew 12 targets, Jameson Williams commanded nine, and Geno Smith kept turning to Mason […]

Howdy RotoBallers! The weekend is here, and we are back with more fantasy football waiver advice. The Commanders, Bills, Chargers, and Jaguars are on the bye this week.

If you are replacing a starting running back this weekend, start with Kendre Miller and Samaje Perine. Miller handled 20 carries on Sunday, and Perine matched Chase Brown's touch total in the Cincinnati Bengals' last game before their bye. Both remain available in plenty of leagues, and both of their workloads deserve another look after […]

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 […]

Hey RotoBallers! With injuries piling up and bye weeks in full swing, managers may have little room to hold onto struggling assets.

As a result, it's time to […]

With injuries mounting week after week, it's getting harder and harder to find players to cut. Do they have two working legs and a heartbeat? If so, I want 'em! That's obviously an exaggeration, but seriously, you want me to drop Jaylen Waddle? I just lost Mike Evans, Terry McLaurin, and Davante Adams! With bye […]

There weren’t many signature fantasy performances in Week 6. Through Sunday’s games, only 25 total players across all positions surpassed 20.0 fantasy points in the week. It certainly didn’t help that several signature players from Cincinnati, Detroit, Minnesota, and Miami were on bye. Unfortunately, bye weeks won’t be any kinder in Week 7. Fantasy managers […]

Week 6 brought a low-scoring slate to our doorsteps just as the first four-team bye drained the player pool, so that was fun! Here's hoping that you are coming into this article from a position of strength, but we're here for everyone. No matter the team needs, we've got you covered with our famous waiver […]
