Nelson Agholor Not a Good Idea in Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor is not a good idea in fantasy starting lineups for Week 8. The Eagles will be on the road going up against the Buffalo Bills and their stingy defense. Agholor has made just seven catches since Week 3, and appeared to completely give up on a very catchable pass […]

Viktor Hovland Set To Take Aim At Zozo Title

Viktor Hovland is in the field for the Zozo Championship. The former Oklahoma State star will look to rebound from a T31 in last week's CJ Cup. We've come to expect perfection from the young rookie, but Hovland was derailed by a third-round 74 at Nine Bridges, his first over-70 round since June. The 22-year-old […]

Alshon Jeffery Tough to Trust in Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery will be in a rough spot in Week 8. The Eagles will be on the road in Buffalo to battle their tough defense. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) possibly looking at another missed game, Jeffery will receive top wideout attention from the Bills secondary. He's coming off a two-catch, 38 […]

Miles Sanders Not an Inspiring Week 8 Option

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders is not a particularly eye-opening option in a Week 8 fantasy lineup. With the Eagles on the road taking on a tough Buffalo Bills Defense, Sanders and the whole Eagles offense could struggle on Sunday. Last week against the Cowboys, Sanders ran for just 21 yards and caught […]

Jordan Howard Will Be Touchdown-Dependent in Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard might only play a fantasy relevant role in Week 8 if he is able to score a touchdown. Howard and the Eagles travel to Buffalo to take on a tough Bills Defense. While Howard has handled almost all early-down and goal line work lately, he has not put together […]

Sungjae Im Looks To Rebound At Zozo

It's no surprise that Sungjae Im is in the field for the upcoming Zozo Championship, as Im seems to tee it up somewhere every week. The young star will look to rebound from a disappointing T39 outing at last week's CJ Cup that was held in his home country of Korea. It's possible that the […]

Tony Finau Is A Strong Option In Japan

Tony Finau is set to tee it up in the Zozo Championship. Finau heads to Japan in sharp form, having logged top-10 finishes in his last two starts at the Alfred Dunhill Championship and the Shriners Open. The young star is known for his distance off the tee, but his length won't be much of […]

David Pastrnak Posts Two Points In Win

Boston Bruins forward David Pastrnak registered a goal and added an assist as his team defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-2 on Tuesday. The 23-year-old put his team on the board first with a highly-skilled, between-the-legs goal in the first period and set up winger Brad Marchand with a cross-ice pass in the middle frame. […]

Matthew Fitzpatrick Is A DFS Sleeper This Week

Matthew Fitzpatrick is in the field for the upcoming Zozo Championship. Fitzpatrick heads to Japan on the heels of a runner-up finish at the Italian Open two weeks ago. The Englishman has fared well in Asia in previous visits by logging multiple top-10 finishes in tournaments held in China and Malaysia. The 25-year-old already has […]

Hideki Matsuyama Returns Home For Zozo

Hideki Matsuyama returns to his home country for this week's Zozo Championship. The Japanese superstar will receive a massive amount of crowd support at Narashino Country Club this week, but with that support comes tons of media obligations and pressure. Matsuyama is one of the game's premier ball strikers and profiles as a tremendous fit […]

Tiger Woods Returns To Action At Zozo

Tiger Woods is set to return to action in this week's Zozo Championship. It will be Woods' first start in a PGA Tour event since his season ended at the BMW Championship in the FedEx Cup playoffs. The 43-year-old underwent an arthroscopic procedure on his left knee during the layoff. It's been nearly impossible to […]

Kerryon Johnson Heading To Injured Reserve

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson (knee) underwent a procedure on Tuesday morning and will miss at least eight weeks while on injured reserve. After many had hoped that the 22-year-old would be in store for a breakout season, Johnson disappointed by compiling just 308 yards and three total touchdowns while averaging a subpar 3.3 […]

Carson Wentz Could Struggle in Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz could have a hard time in Week 8 on the road against the Buffalo Bills. The Eagles offense looked like a mess in Week 7 against the Cowboys, with Wentz throwing for just 191 yards on 16 completed passes. The Bills Defense poses another threat to Wentz and the whole […]

Redskins Defense A Terrible Play Against Vikings

The Washington Redskins Defense will head to Minnesota on Thursday night to take on a Vikings team that has averaged 36 points a game over the last three weeks. Minnesota's recent offensive success directly coincides with its newly established willingness to air the ball out from the arm of Kirk Cousins, who has averaged 325 […]

Jeremy Sprinkle Maintains A Low-Floor Fantasy Profile

Washington Redskins tight end Jeremy Sprinkle will presumably start for the fourth consecutive week on Thursday night against the Vikings, but that starting role has yet to yield any positive fantasy results. Vernon Davis has missed Washington's last three games, a time frame in which Sprinkle has caught a total of six passes for 54 […]

Trey Quinn An Extremely High-Risk Week 8 Option

Washington Redskins wide receiver Trey Quinn has totaled seven catches for 56 yards in his last three games. His only double-digit PPR outing came all the way back in Week 1 when he happened to score a garbage-time touchdown. With a short week to prepare for Thursday night's game and a Redskins offense that hasn't […]

Paul Richardson Can't Be Trusted In Week 8

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson has a relatively favorable matchup on his hands Thursday, but has done nothing this season to convince fantasy owners he can capitalize. The Vikings are allowing an average of 15 receptions and 159 yards per game to opposing receivers, along with 11 total touchdowns. Richardson hasn't caught a pass […]

Terry McLaurin The Only Smart Redskins Fantasy Play

Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin should be in line for a ton of targets in Thursday night's game at Minnesota, making him the only reasonably safe fantasy option among his teammates. The Vikings have allowed the most receptions to wide receivers of any team in the league, for 1,116 total yards and a league-high […]

Case Keenum Not A Safe Week 8 Option

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum will look to bounce back from Sunday's 9-0 loss in which he threw for under 100 yards, but a date with Minnesota doesn't provide him with much more fantasy appeal. This should be interpreted more as a lack of faith in Washington's offense than a vote of confidence in the […]

PGA DFS: Vegas Report - ZOZO Championship

Justin Thomas' game is often regarded in the same breath as Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson, but there tends to be these strange ebbs and flows around his betting odds that the other players don't seem to encounter. We will see him viewed as the best golfer in the field, which was the […]

Wendell Smallwood Could Be In Line For Starting Work

Washington Redskins running back Wendell Smallwood might be the starter by default in Thursday night's game at Minnesota. Adrian Peterson is questionable with a high ankle sprain, while Chris Thompson continues to nurse a toe injury that held him out of last week's contest. Considering the short week, it wouldn't be surprising to see the […]

Dawson Knox (TE, BUF) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: Dawson Knox came into 2019 as a largely unknown player at the tight end position. He is a rookie out of Ole Miss, and often rookie tight ends do not have much success for the first couple of years in their career. […]

There also aren’t a ton of “can’t miss” first base prospects in the pro ranks right now with only one sitting on my […]

Brandon Ingram Leads Pels In Scoring In Overtime Loss

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram led his team with 22 points in the loss to the Raptors on Tuesday. Ingram, who averaged 18.3 points in his final season as a Laker, played a healthy amount of minutes while throwing in some solid supporting stats (five boards, two blocks) on a night that saw coach […]

Lonzo Ball Logs 25 Minutes In Loss

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball recorded eight points in the loss to Toronto on Tuesday. Ball logged 25 minutes on the night but was overshadowed by Josh Hart, who recorded a 15 and 10 double-double off of the bench. This wasn't a promising sign for those hoping that the 21-year-old would benefit from a […]

Jrue Holiday Records Just 13 Points

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday logged 13 points during the overtime loss to the Raptors. Holiday led the team with 41 minutes despite coach Gentry going deep into his rotation against a Toronto team that saw only eight players see action. Though he relegated some of his production to the trio of Brandon Ingram, […]

Fred VanVleet Scores 34 Points In Win

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet was solid during the win over the Pelicans on Tuesday, finishing the night with 34 points on 12-for-18 from the field. The 25-year-old also contributed elsewhere by recording seven assists, five boards, and two steals while shooting an impressive 5-for-7 from deep. With Kyle Lowry having an off night from […]
