Martellus Bennett Should Have a Big Day

Chicago Bears tight end Martellus Bennett hasn't shown much thus far for fantasy owners. Expect that to change this week against the Oakland Raiders. Bennett has faced pretty tough defenses through the first three games and finally gets a break against a Raiders defense that has allowed 297 yards and five touchdowns to tight ends […]

Marshawn Lynch a Game-Time Decision for Seahawks

During the Seattle Seahawks’ game against the Chicago Bears last week, you could hear Marshawn Lynch fantasy owners scream out in utter terror from thousands of miles away. Lynch, who had aggravated his hamstring during Week 2, decided to make the injury worse during Week 3 against the Bears and had to be taken out, […]

Tyrod Taylor Looks to Stay Hot - Is a Must Start in Week 4

Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor has been a top scoring fantasy option the past two weeks and hopes to continue playing well against the New York Giants at home. Taylor threw for 277 yards, 3 touchdowns and no interceptions last week against the Miami Dolphins. The Giants are giving up 335 passing yards a game […]

Bears Put Running Back Matt Forte On the Trading Block

After trading Jared Allen and Jon Bostic each for a 6th-round pick this week, it appears John Fox is looking to rebuild the Bears after starting 2015 0-3. According to multiple reports, Matt Forte could be the next one out of town. The 29-year-old running back likely doesn't fit into any rebuilding plans and could definitely […]

Andrew Luck To Sit, Matt Hasselbeck a Deep Fantasy Option?

Colts starting quarterback Andrew Luck is officially listed a questionable for Sunday, but according to Chris Mortensen on Twitter, he's expected to sit out the week four contest against the Jacksonvile Jaguars. He was limited in practice all week but the pain is said to be the main issue with his throwing shoulder. Indy looks to […]

Doug Martin Expected to Play Against Panthers

According to Ian Rapoport, Doug Martin expects to plays today at home against the undefeated Carolina Panthers despite being limited in practice this week with knee and quad injuries. Doug Martin has 176 yards on 46 carries so far this season with zero touchdowns. The Panthers defense has been middle-of-the-pack in regards to allowing fantasy points […]

Bears Optimistic Jay Cutler Will Return to Lineup

According to ProFootballTalk, the Bears are optimistic that Jay Cutler will be able to start at home against the Oakland Raiders today. Many expected Jay Cutler to miss a few weeks with his hamstring injury, but he has looked good enough in the last few days for the Chicago coaching staff to believe he will return. […]

Demarco Murray Expected to Play Against Redskins, Usage Unknown

Despite being questionable, Adam Schefter has reported that Demarco Murray is expected to play in the Eagles matchup against the Washington Redksins today. Murray has struggled behind the Eagles offensive line in the first two games, running the ball 21 times for just 11 yards and a touchdown before missing Week 3 with a hamstring injury. With […]

Andrew Luck Out Against Jacksonville In Week 4

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck will not play against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4. Luck has dealt with a shoulder injury he sustained in Week 3, and is apparently still bothered by it. He has been severely limited in practice all week, and what work he was able to get done was not enough […]

Arian Foster Starting, Immediately Becomes An RB1?

The time has finally arrived. Later today, Arian Foster is fully expected to make his 2015 debut for the Houston Texans and fantasy football owners. Those who drafted Foster, and have been patiently waiting, can now finally plug him into their Week 4 lineups. It's possible that Foster's work can be limited today, as the Texans […]

Eric Decker Active, Get Him In Your Fantasy Lineups

Eric Decker has officially been declared active for today's Week 4 game against the Miami Dolphins. This is great news for both the New York Jets, and fantasy football owners as well. If you own Decker, you should be starting him in any format - especially those in PPR leagues. He has shown he is […]

Marvin Jones (WR, CIN) - Week 4 Lineup Booms

If it wasn’t for the Patriots steamrolling opposing defenses, we’d be talking a lot more about how good the Bengals offense has been this season. They’ve been dynamic down the field with 16 passes of 20+ yards on the season. Only the Cardinals have more through three games. Marvin Jones is a huge part of […]

Karlos Williams (RB, BUF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 31% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: LeSean McCoy may have to miss multiple games now. That's huge for Karlos Williams and his fantasy football owners. Although pegged as a back who didn't have a true role in the NFL, and was more of a swiss-army-knife than a feature back, Williams has been playing well […]

Ty Montgomery (WR, GB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While Davante Adams owners were disappointed with his MNF dud (two targets, zero catches, left early after re-aggravating his ankle), WR-needy owners were thrilled to see a potential opening in the high-powered Green Bay offense. The main beneficiary would be Ty Montgomery, who […]

Odell Beckham, Randall Cobb - Week 4 Fantasy Dominators

Odell Beckham Jr. (at BUF) Pairing Odell Beckham Jr. with Eli Manning this week makes for a great combination in GPP formats. Beckham is the second most expensive WR on the board this week, but for good reason. So far this season, he has 19 receptions for 269 yards and 2 touchdowns. As I mentioned […]

Adrian Peterson, Carlos Hyde - Week 4 Lineup Booms

Adrian Peterson (at DEN) Adrian Peterson is one of the top running backs in the entire league right now, but that should of been obvious before the season started. A lot of people were concerned about Peterson after his miserable season last year, but he is proving to everyone that he should still be concerned one […]

Amari Cooper (WR, OAK) - Week 4 Lineup Booms

Ranking in the top 10 in passing attempts, passing yards, and total offense per game, Oakland’s offense has really raced out of the gate. Top four draft pick and rookie phenom Amari Cooper has been a big part of that, with 31 targets already on the year. Cooper has been simply magnificent the last two […]

Michael Crabtree (WR, OAK) - Week 4 Lineup Booms

I am recommending Michael Crabtree two weeks in a row. Before you click that x button in the upper right hand side of your screen, allow me to explain. Crabtree was definitely disappointing in his last game against the Cleveland Browns, catching only four balls for 36 yards. However, he gets a fantastic matchup against […]

Joseph Randle, Karlos Williams - Week 4 Lineups Booms

Joseph Randle (at NO) It seems like it would be an injustice to disregard Joseph Randle this week against the New Orleans Saints. The Saints are struggling on the defensive side of the ball right now, and the Cowboys are going to take their traveling "Joseph Randle Touchdown Show" into New Orleans. Last week, Randle […]

Jordan Reed, Martellus Bennett - Week 4 Lineup Booms

Jordan Reed (vs PHI) Without Gronkowski, the top TE play this week is Jordan Reed. Granted, Jimmy Graham had a solid game last week and makes for a good play on DFS sites with a low-ish price tag, but Reed is simply in a better spot in Washington. He is being very heavily targeted every week […]

Listen, not every column can be sunshine and rainbows.  We can tell you all about how Julio Jones will score 30 points because he's Julio Jones and of course he will.  Sometimes, you just have to face the grim reality that the players you drafted aren't as good as you thought they'd be (for me, […]

NFL Survivor League Picks – Survivor Pool Targets & Avoids (Week 4)

After a miserable week 2, I bounced back going four for four in my picks this past week. All the big favorites won, with a couple small underdogs winning on the road. This the first week of the NFL season where BYEs start coming into play, with New England and Tennessee getting the week off. […]

Deeper PPR Lineup Sleepers for Week 4: Cameron Artis-Payne, Cecil Shorts, Gary Barnidge

Another week in and I hope everyone is doing better than me in their fantasy leagues this season. Going forward, I now have Dez Bryant, LeSean McCoy and Ben Roethlisberger riding the bench for at least the next couple weeks. I guess it was a good thing I traded for Larry Fitzgerald. If you are […]
