Fantasy Football Sells? DeAngelo Williams, Jimmy Graham, Jay Ajayi

Jimmy Graham (TE, SEA) Seattle's unwillingness to make Jimmy Graham a focal point of its struggling offense is mind-boggling, but it remains to be the case.

NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel DFS Basketball Advice for 11/20/15

Daily fantasy basketball happens to be one of the most predictable fantasy sports that there is.

I will provide a top play […]

Fantasy Football Buys? Aaron Rodgers, Darren McFadden, Jeremy Hill

The waiver wire isn't the only place to change the course of your season. The right trade can make or break your team. The key is to buy low on cold players, then swap them out once they get hot and their value skyrockets. Everyone knows this method, but that doesn't mean you still can't […]

Mike Evans and Calvin Johnson Both Have Huge Potential in Week 11

The wide receiver position is always interesting to forecast who will deliver the best performance on any given week. Julio Jones and Antonio Brown are the most consistent sources but just about every other wide receiver can be a hit or miss depending on the schedule. Two specific receivers that are borderline WR1 plays most […]

Charcandrick West and Darren McFadden Poised to Exploit Matchups

Kansas City Chiefs running back Charcandrick West has emerged as a great option at running back over the last month.

Brock Osweiler or Matt Hasselbeck in an Emergency Role?

My my, the fantasy year it’s been for both Peyton Manning and his successor in Indianapolis, Andrew Luck. Manning has nearly double the amount of interceptions (17) than he does touchdowns (9). Luck has 13 interceptions in a surprisingly average season for the fourth year quarterback. Both have battled through injuries. Now they tag in their replacements. […]

Matt Forte to Share Carries? Odell Beckham Sees Many Targets and Rob Gronkowski Leads League in PI Penalties

Chicago Bears running back Matt Forte obviously doesn’t care much about his fantasy football owners.

"He's done his job like he's supposed to ... I've […]

Allen Robinson, Julius Thomas, Delanie Walker Barely Headline Thursday Night

If you started kickers Jason Myers or Ryan Succop last night, then you had a pretty good start to your fantasy week. If you started nearly anyone else, then you didn’t.
