Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 15

Week 14 was a boring one on Tank Street, with all of the crowd favorites managing to take care of business and keep on losing.

Kerryon Johnson Nearing A Return

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson (knee, IR) is setback-free and nearing a return to the field.

Montreal's Cayden Primeau Sent Down

Backup goalie changes are not usually of major importance in the fantasy news landscape but could this move be related to the Taylor Hall trade rumors that are swirling? Cayden Primeau's promotion over the more experience Charlie Lindgren (who has now been promoted) always seemed like a curious decision. It may have been a move […]

Taylor Hall Held Out Against Colorado, Trade Rumors Swirling

New Jersey Devils forward Taylor Hall did not play in Friday night's game against the Avalanche, reportedly held out as a healthy scratch as a precaution. As if being held out of the game was not enough to send the hockey world into a frenzy, Peter McNab on the Colorado broadcast pointed out that "Taylor […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/14/19): NBA DFS Lineups

Seven game slates lead to some of the best nights because they offer enough variance to keep it interesting, but you won't run into all the same dopes running the same lineup. As much as everyone wants to win, playing the same lineup hurt your chances and it's always better to have a little bit […]

Another Strong Showing for Pavel Francouz in Colorado Win

Colorado Avalanche goaltender Pavel Francouz allowed only a single goal on 38 shots against New Jersey, earning him his ninth win of the season.

Tyler Boyd A Volatile Option On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd is a risky option on Sunday when he takes on the Patriots top-ranked pass defense, which is allowing only 25 PPR points a game to receivers. Boyd usually sees the lions share of the Bengals' targets; however, he was out-targeted by Alex Erickson last week, and the two were […]

Joe Nicely's Top 10 PGA Golfers Of The Decade

December has lots of great traits. Christmas and all its trappings are, of course, wonderful.

Unfortunately, what we don't have much of is (real) golf, which leaves golf […]

Andy Dalton Off Streaming Radar

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton finds himself in a matchup to avoid on Sunday against the Patriots' league-best passing defense. New England has allowed only 15.4 points a game to opposing quarterbacks, and Dalton hasn't topped 262 yards through the air in his two games since being back under center. He should see a fair […]

Joe Mixon In For Long Game on Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon will get a stern test on Sunday against the New England Patriots.

Zach LaVine Scuffles Mightily From Field During Defeat

Chicago Bulls shooting guard Zach LaVine managed to tie for the team lead in scoring during Friday’s loss to the Charlotte Hornets, but even that meant just 12 points on 4-for-19 shooting. His outing was aided by the eight rebounds and two assists that he collected, but it was a step backwards on the heels […]

Cody Zeller, Bismack Biyombo Combine For Huge Outing

If the duo of Cody Zeller and Bismack Biyombo were one player for the Charlotte Hornets, they would have put together a monster 23-point, 19-rebound evening during Friday’s win over the Chicago Bulls. Instead, the two each played 24 minutes, with Zeller notching a double-double (his second in his last three games) off the bench […]

PJ Washington Collects Second Career Double-Double

Charlotte Hornets power forward PJ Washington tied his career high in shot attempts with 17 during Friday’s win over the Chicago Bulls, utilizing that aggressiveness to assist him in notching the second double-double of his career.

Devonte' Graham Notches Team-High 16 Points In Victory

Charlotte Hornets point/shooting guard Devonte' Graham led his squad in scoring for the third consecutive game by going for 16 points in Friday’s win over the Chicago Bulls.

Daniel Gafford Piles Up Six Blocked Shots

Chicago Bulls power forward/center Daniel Gafford accrued a career-high six blocks during Friday’s loss to the Charlotte Hornets, despite playing just 20 minutes off the bench. Gafford hasn’t proven to be much of an offensive force in his limited minutes this season, but he has shown a propensity for racking up blocks in a short […]

Curtis Samuel Still An Option In Week 15

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel is coming off of a two-catch, 25-yard performance against the Falcons in Week 14. Despite this, the 23-year-old has five receiving touchdowns on the year and has the capacity for another against an average Seahawks Defense. Fantasy managers need to understand that there is some risk involved with Samuel […]

D.J. Moore Looks To Finish Strong

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore has been one of the league's most productive wideouts in 2019 and will look continue that trend on Sunday against a Seahawks Defense that has allowed a middle-of-the-pack 35.43 fantasy points to his position. Moore didn't have the best outing in Week 14, finishing with just four catches for […]

Kyle Allen Looks To Save His Job For Next Season

Carolina Panthers quarterback Kyle Allen will attempt to salvage what has been a disappointing season on Sunday against Seattle.

Christian McCaffrey Semi-Risky Against Seattle

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey has failed to hit the 100-yard mark on the ground in any of his last four games but has stepped things up as a receiver, nonetheless, by collecting 38 of his 48 targets for 330 yards during that same span. The Seahawks have been decent against opposing backs this […]
