Jimmy Graham (TE, SEA) - Tight Ends Showing Warning Signals

Things with Graham's transition over to the Seattle Seahawks haven't gone nearly as planned. Whether Graham is frustrated with his role, or just not getting the targets that he probably should, his fantasy stock isn't something that you can rely on. Through four games, Graham has been the definition of hit-or-miss. In Week 1, he […]

Tyler Eifert (TE, CIN) - Tight Ends Showing Warning Signals?

It's not so much that Eifert himself is doing anything wrong, it's more that Andy Dalton is just looking at other players, specifically A.J. Green. While Green started the season off slow, he's caught 17 balls for 309 yards and two scores over the past two weeks. Yes, 227 of those yards and both scores came […]

Andrew Luck (QB, IND) - Quarterbacks Showing Warning Signals?

Through the first three weeks of the 2015 NFL season, Luck looked absolutely nothing like the player we saw back in 2014 who threw for 4,761 yards and 40 touchdowns with only 16 interceptions. Instead, Luck began his 2015 campaign by throwing for an average of 251 yards per game, with five touchdowns and seven interceptions through […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Quarterbacks Showing Warning Signals?

For a minute there, Flacco had us thinking that he had bounced back to the "good Flacco." After posting back-to-back 350-plus passing yard games against the Oakland Raiders and Cincinnati Bengals (while throwing four touchdowns against two interceptions), Flacco fell backwards in Week 4. He threw for just 189 yards, with one touchdown and one […]

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - Quarterbacks Showing Warning Signals

Tannehill may not be belittling teammate's paychecks, but he did admit to ripping the players on the scout squad, according to James Walker of ESPN. Not your finest moment, Ryan. While the off-field drama is one thing, the fact that the Miami Dolphins have now fired Joe Philbin puts Tannehill in an interesting situation. He may not […]

MLB DFS Lineup Picks & Sleepers - DraftKings Advice for 10/09/15

As always, remember to check your players to make sure they are in their MLB starting lineups before lineups lock. My goal with these DFS picks, as always, is to try and identify MLB players who will outperform their expectations today and tomorrow, based on their matchups and FanDuel prices. […]

Daily Fantasy College Football - DraftKings CFB DFS Picks for 10/10 (early)

Going into Week 6 in College Football, try not to let your passions or bias in many of the upcoming rivalry games deplete your bank account. Just as a losing team with more play-making components to their offense can produce more fantasy points than their victors who can ride 3rd and 4th downs into the […]

FanDuel DFS - MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers, and Advice for 10/9

We got our first taste of ALDS action yesterday with the Rangers and Astros each stealing a game on the road. Our MLB Hitter Streamers Tool had Robinson Chirinos as a sleeper which paid off for those you who followed along. Today we're treated to a quartet of all-day baseball starting with the Rangers-Blue Jays […]

Hello RotoBallers. Today, I will be discussing three NFL rookies and their fantasy football potential for the 2015 season. These players are looking to be statistically on the upswing, and may be en route to showing their potential for the season.

Daily Fantasy Football Picks and Advice: Week 5 NFL DFS DraftKings Lineups and Sleepers

Welcome to the Week 5 edition of Daily Fantasy Football DraftKings targets. An introduction is not really all that necessary, as the title of this DFS article pretty much sums up what is going to be discussed. It's important to identify players with good matchups, but we also want to look at their DraftKings prices […]

FanDuel Picks for Daily Fantasy Football Week 5: DFS Lineup Advice and Sleepers

As the season progresses, we continue to see developments on both sides of the ball for teams. This tends to happen because of injuries, but with four weeks in the books, teams are also beginning to bench players that are underperforming in order to give potentially more talented players an opportunity. In this article, my […]

Future Tense: The Arizona Fall League

Hello, and welcome to the first edition of Future Tense, RotoBaller.com’s new column covering the minor leagues. I’m your host, Mark Haverty. It’s been a little while since I’ve covered this beat, having done so for years both on my own ventures and for Sporting News, along with fantasy baseball in general for FOX Sports, […]

Buy Low/Sell High for Fantasy Football (Week 5)

Welcome to our Week 5 edition of Buy or Sell, where we look to provide fantasy football trade advice. With Week 4 now concluded and the halfway point of the fantasy season officially on the horizon, it’s time to start weeding out the solid players from the hot starters. Every year there are a handful […]

Quarterbacks & Tight Ends Sending Out Warning Signals Going Into Week 5

In the NFL, there are always those players who make you more and more anxious as the season goes on. They either aren't producing at the level they should, or they're simply getting too many garbage time points to allow you to feel confident in them on a weekly basis. Fortunately, we're here to point […]

Beltre (Back) MRI Comes Back Clean, Somewhat

Adrian Beltre is day-to-day after he left Thursday’s Game 1 against the Toronto Blue Jays while running to first base. The Texas Rangers slugger underwent an MRI after leaving the game in the third inning. The results revealed no structural damage to Beltre’s back, which is better news than possibly expected. Adrian Beltre has a […]

Donaldson (Head) Passes Concussion Test

Josh Donaldson passed a concussion test after Thursday’s Game 1 against the Texas Rangers. The Toronto Blue Jays slugger left the game after sliding into second to break up a double-play in the fourth inning. Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor’s knee slammed into an oncoming Donaldson, which knocked him down. Donaldson passed concussion tests. Will […]

Andre Williams (RB, NYG) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10 - 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 50% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Andre Williams is the third wheel in a Giants backfield featuring Rashad Jennings and Shane Vereen. Each back has their own special attributes they bring to the field which makes them important parts of the offense but makes their fantasy […]

Cameron Artis-Payne (RB, CAR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Cameron Artis-Payne was the Panthers' 5th round selection out of the University of Auburn, yet people were already talking about his potential impact for fantasy football managers. Why is this? This is because everyone knows Jonathan Stewart is a yearly injury […]

Andre Johnson to Face Former Team for First Time

Indianapolis Colts WR Andre Johnson will take the field Thursday night for his first game against his former team, the Houston Texans.  Johnson joined the Colts in the offseason as the Texans all-time leader in receiving yards (13,597), catches (1,012) and touchdowns (64). Johnson has struggled with his new team, totaling only seven receptions for […]

Ryan Mallet to Remain Starter vs Colts Tonight

Despite being replaced by Brian Hoyer in last week's blowout loss to the Falcons, Ryan Mallet is expected to get the start yet again in Thursday's game against the Colts.  So far Mallet has posted a disappointing completion percentage of 44%, with an overall quarterback rating of 46.8.  He struggled to get things going against the […]

Daily Fantasy NASCAR: DraftKings DFS Picks & Analysis for the Bank of America 500

Following the race at Dover last weekend, four drivers (Jimmie Johnson, Jamie McMurray, Paul Menard, Clint Bowyer) have been eliminated from the playoffs. The first round kept many fans on the edge of their seats for three weeks as they witnessed some ups and downs throughout. Jimmie Johnson unintentionally wrecked Harvick in the first race […]

Jordan Matthews (WR, PHI) - Wide Receivers Showing Warning Signals?

Realistically I could talk about how the entire Philly offense is sending out "warning signals", but Matthews has been the more surprising disappointment over the last two weeks. After boasting two impressive outings in Weeks 1 and 2, Matthews has totaled only nine receptions for 99 yards in the following two games combined. Let's face it, […]

Brandin Cooks (WR, NO) - Wide Receivers Showing Warning Signals?

Now that I've (hopefully) calmed you down on Mike Evans, let's head to the complete opposite end of the spectrum and talk about Brandin Cooks once again. Last week I had said that Cooks was either the perfect buy-low candidate or a total bust. One week later with a returning Drew Brees and it's looking like […]

Mike Evans (WR, TB) - Wide Receivers Showing Warning Signals?

Here's the part where I try to talk you off the ledge. Over the last two games, Mike Evans has 25 targets compared to 21 for that of his teammate Vincent Jackson. Jackson is coming off of a massive 147-yard day, but rewind to the week before and Evans had a 101-yard showing of his own. […]

Calvin Johnson (WR, DET) - Wide Receivers Showing Warning Signals?

If Kam Chancellor doesn't punch the ball out of Calvin Johnson's hands at the goal line, Megatron likely escapes making my warning signals list. Hell, if the referees don't blow that batted ball call and Calvin finds the end zone on the next play, he's still probably safe. But alas, here we are with another mediocre […]

Arian Foster to Be More Involved Tonight Against Colts

After debuting last week vs the Falcons, Arian Foster will be back in a Week 5 matchup vs the Indianapolis Colts.  Foster's debut wasn't particularly impressive, rushing eight times for 10 yards and catching three passes for 25 yards.  The real takeaway from his performance last week was that his groin didn't appear to bother him and […]

Matz (Back) Throws 80 Pitches In Simulated Game

New York Mets starting pitcher Steven Matz threw 80 pitches during a simulated game on Thursday in Port St. Lucie, FL. The simulation was done with the possibility that if healthy, Matz could be the potential Game 4 starter for the Mets during the NLDS against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The rookie left-hander has been […]

Tulowitzki (Shoulder) Batting 5th For Game 1

The Toronto Blue Jays have put out their lineup for Game 1 of the ALDS on Thursday, and Troy Tulowitzki will be moved to the fifth spot. Tulowitzki played in two games during the final weekend of the regular season after the shortstop missed most of September with a small crack in his shoulder blade. […]

Rangers Reveal Game 1 Lineup: Hamilton Starting

The Texas Rangers have announced their lineup for Game 1 of the ALDS against the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday. The AL West winners will lead it off with centerfielder Delino DeShields Jr. The 23-year-old rookie will have the opportunity to get it started for the Rangers against David Price. He will bring his .261 […]

DeVante Parker (WR, MIA) - Fantasy Football Fallers

The Miami Dolphins were many experts' sleeper pick to make a leap into the playoffs, but Ryan Tannehill has failed to take that next step, the team's defense is in disarray and now they have to transition to a new coach as Joe Philbin was fired this week. Rookie DeVante Parker was expected to be […]
