Le'Veon Bell A High-End RB2 Sunday
New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell will look to find the end zone for the first time since Week 1 on Sunday in a matchup with the Cowboys. Bell has had a solid floor in fantasy by playing 94.3 percent of the offensive snaps and leading the team in targets. His dominance in playing […]

Marcus Mariota Looking To Make More Plays
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota has protected the ball extremely well thus far in 2019, with seven total touchdowns and no turnovers through five games. While the Titans do want him to continue protecting the ball, they also need him to start pushing the ball down the field for more big plays. Look for offensive […]

Chris Boswell Could Be Busy On Sunday
Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell might be called upon often for Sunday's road game against the LA Chargers. The 28-year-old is a perfect 10-for-10 on field goals while not missing an extra point in nine tries. With Devlin Hodges set to start at quarterback for Pittsburgh, the offense might have a tough time closing out […]

The Steelers Defense Not A Good Option For Week 6
The Pittsburgh Steelers Defense isn't a great streaming option for a Week 6 matchup with the LA Chargers. Over their last five road games, Pittsburgh has allowed at least 24 points in each of them, all of which resulted in a loss. Now, the defense will have extra pressure on it with Mason Rudolph (concussion) […]

Vance McDonald Will Play On Sunday
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) was a full participant in Friday's practice and will be available to play in Sunday's game against the Chargers. The 29-year-old has been very quiet on the field over the past few weeks, including missing Week 4. McDonald has just four catches on five targets for 44 yards. […]

Diontae Johnson A Solid Flex Option In Week 6
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson has led the team with 20 targets over the last three weeks. Since most teams try to neutralize JuJu Smith-Schuster, Johnson has been the prime beneficiary of more relaxed coverage. Also consider that James Washington (shoulder) is out on Sunday against the LA Chargers, and the rookie Johnson has […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster A Low-End WR2 On Sunday
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster will have third-string, rookie quarterback Devlin Hodges throwing to him on Sunday night against the LA Chargers. The third-year pass catcher has really struggled with distracting team's top cornerbacks every week and thus remained relatively quiet. However, a 35-yard touchdown last week is what keeps him in your lineups. While […]

Chase McLaughlin Expected To Start Again
Los Angeles Chargers kicker Chase McLaughlin is expected to draw the start once again in Week 6 as kicker Michael Badgley is doubtful due to his groin issue. McLaughlin made two of three field goals last week, and he'll probably get a shot or two again this week. Unfortunately, he's not a long-term play and […]

Uchenna Nwosu Garners Praise From Coaches
Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Uchenna Nwosu racked up his first sack of the season against the Broncos last week, and sure enough, coaches were singing his praises this week. Defensive coordinator Gus Bradley told the media that Nwosu has been impressive in taking on more of a pass rushing role with defensive end Melvin Ingram […]

Keenan Allen Looks To Repeat 2018
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen will be looking to recreate the magic from last season when he faces the Steelers this weekend. Allen demolished Pittsburgh's secondary last year when he tallied 14 catches for 148 yards and a touchdown, and he'll hope to do similar damage this year. Obviously, there's risk associated with […]

Mike Williams Is A Risky Choice
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams is a real hit-or-miss play this week, and there are solid arguments to be made for both sides. Williams could completely bust this week because LA is facing a Steelers Defense that has been very stingy over the last four weeks, and Williams is usually a ways down […]

Austin Ekeler Should Get Plenty More Chances
Los Angeles Chargers running back/pass-catching extraordinaire Austin Ekeler will likely see a whole lot of opportunities again this week. Ekeler caught a whopping 15 passes last week against the Broncos, and with LA squaring off against a hard-nosed Pittsburgh defense, expect Philip Rivers to use Ekeler as an easy out once again. That said, there […]

Masahiro Tanaka Gets The Ball In Game 1 Of ALCS
New York Yankees starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka will start in Game 1 of the American League Championship Series against the Astros on Saturday. Left-hander James Paxton will go in Game 2 on Sunday and Luis Severino will toe the rubber in Game 3 on Tuesday when the series shifts to New York. Tanaka was up […]

Melvin Gordon Faces A Tough Task
Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon will get his second shot at game speed on Sunday, but he'll have his hands full against a Pittsburgh defense that has been on fire. The deck is stacked against him as Gordon looked rusty in his first appearance, his offensive line is bad and injured, and the […]

Seahawks Without Duane Brown, D.J. Fluker In Week 6
Seattle Seahawks left tackle Duane Brown (biceps) and offensive guard D.J. Fluker (hamstring) have both been ruled out for Week 6 against the Browns. Guard Ethan Pocic (back) was also placed on Injured Reserve on Friday. Seattle's offensive line is banged up entering a matchup with an imposing Cleveland pass rush, so this could be […]

Philip Rivers Facing A Hot Defense
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers is set to square off against a Steelers Defense that has been on point recently. While Pittsburgh is 1-4, they've allowed just 7.54 fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in the last two weeks, including a match-up with Lamar Jackson. Rivers is obviously a well-versed veteran with an abundance of […]

Eric Bledsoe Suffers Minor Rib Injury
Milwaukee Bucks guard Eric Bledsoe (rib) is in danger of missing the beginning of the regular season after suffering a rib injury. Bledsoe fractured the cartilage between two of his ribs and was given a two or three week timetable. However, the team announced it's more of a pain tolerance issue than anything else. Bledsoe […]

Alex Len is Able to Practice on Friday
Atlanta Hawks center Alex Len (back) was able to get through Friday's practice without any setbacks. He is hopefully over his back injuries and was able to suit up during the last two preseason games. There is a good chance that Len can earn the starting center job in Atlanta. He'll have decent late round […]

Kevin Huerter Gets Through Practice on Friday
Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (knee) was able to get through practice on Friday without any issues. He hasn't played in the preseason yet because of knee pain. There is a chance he gets out there for a game against the Heat on Monday. Huerter has some late round appeal in most formats, assuming he's […]

Cory Joseph is Likely Out for the Preseason
Sacramento Kings guard Cory Joseph (calf) is likely going to miss the rest of the preseason, according to head coach Luke Walton. The Kings have just two games left, so it's not a huge deal to give Joseph a few days off. Joseph is battling and likely beating Yogi Ferrell for backup minutes at the […]

Alexander Mattison Is Not A Streaming Option Against Eagles
Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison is not a player to consider for starting lineups in Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Mattison is having a very solid season as the backup to Dalvin Cook as he's averaging 5.6 yards per carry and has received seven or more carries in 3-of-5 games. He had four […]

Nicolas Batum Should Be Ready for Regular Season
Charlotte Hornets forward Nicolas Batum (Achilles) suffered an injury on Wednesday and could be shut down for most of the preseason. He did some pre-game work on Friday, but continues to deal with the right Achilles issue. However, the Hornets are rebuilding, so a veteran like Batum doesn't have great value on that organization. He […]

Dwight Powell Won't Play in Preseason
Dallas Mavericks forward/center Dwight Powell (hamstring) has been making progress, but won't play in the preseason. He suffered a left hamstring injury last week and the team is going to be cautious with him during camp. They will re-evaluate Powell before the season opener. Powell still should have value in almost all formats despite the […]

Byron Pringle Could Have Value Against Texans
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Byron Pringle caught six passes for 103 yards and a touchdown in the loss to the Colts in Week 5. Pringle had two receptions heading into last week, but could have value again versus the Houston Texans in Week 6. Tyreek Hill (shoulder) is questionable to play after missing the […]

Cameron Brate Is An Uninspiring Play
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate had an uninspired outing in Week 5 versus the Saints. He caught his only target for 11 yards against a stingy Saints Defense. Quarterback Jameis Winston was locked onto Chris Godwin all day and gave him 11 targets. No other player saw more than three. Perhaps after the Bucs […]

Demarcus Robinson Has Flex Appeal in Week 6
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson should find himself in a productive week with the Chiefs banged up at receiver. Tyreek Hill (shoulder) is questionable to play after missing the last month. Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is doubtful after missing practice all week. It could be Mecole Hardman and Robinson suiting up as the main […]

Mecole Hardman Could Be No. 2 Option in Week 6
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman has found a way to have fantasy value this season with the team having banged-up receivers. Tyreek Hill (shoulder) is questionable to suit up in this one after missing the last month. Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is doubtful after missing practice all week. Hardman would suit up as the […]

Travis Kelce is Looking at Elite Matchup
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been one of the most consistent fantasy players throughout the season. He had a fairly average game last week, but managed to haul in four of his 10 targets for 70 yards in the Week 5 loss to the Colts. Wide receiver Tyreek Hill (shoulder) is questionable […]

Wil Lutz A Good Option Against Jacksonville
New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz faces the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 6. Lutz has gone 11-for-12 on field goals and 10-for-11 on extra points. Playing in one of the more high-scoring offenses in the league, it makes sense that he's relatively busy every week. He could be even more so in Week 6 against […]

Paul Richardson A Fantasy Long Shot In Week 6
Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson has had one solid fantasy outing: an eight-catch, 83-yard game capped off with a touchdown in Week 3. He has failed to eclipse 20 receiving yards in three of his other four games, and one of those came in a week when Terry McLaurin was inactive. Case Keenum did […]
