Jacory Croskey-Merritt in Line for Significant Role?

Washington Commanders running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt (shoulder) is all but assured of a roster spot, and it "wouldn't be a surprise to see him play a significant role in the offense," according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. The rookie seventh-rounder suffered a shoulder injury in Washington's first preseason game, but it isn't considered serious. […]

Luke McCaffrey Struggling in Training Camp

Washington Commanders wide receiver Luke McCaffrey has "received ample time with the ones and struggled" in training camp practices, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. Jhabvala includes McCaffrey in his 53-man roster projection for Washington, but writes that he's doing so "largely because he was a third-round pick last year." The 24-year-old McCaffrey saw […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 319

Many didn't think this fight would end up happening--and honestly, I'm still holding my breath. We have already had Ferreira-Green and the TUF Welterweight finale pulled from UFC 319, so let's just hope that the evening culminates in the main event that we all want to see. The values this week have been incredibly tough […]

Joe Milton III to See Heavy Workload on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Joe Milton III is expected to see a heavy workload during Saturday's second preseason contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Milton was pulled early during their first contest due to an elbow issue. Before exiting, Milton completed 17-of-29 passing attempts for 143 yards with one touchdown and one interception against the Los Angeles […]

Harold Fannin Jr. Looking Good in Camp

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. has been reportedly looking good in joint practices with the Philadelphia Eagles this week. On Thursday, Fannin dropped a potential touchdown pass from quarterback Joe Flacco. However, Fannin responded by catching the next one and later scoring on a corner route. The rumors are that Fannin could line […]

Jaydon Blue Still Not Practicing

Dallas Cowboys running back Jaydon Blue (heel) is no longer using a walking boot, but hasn't participated in practice since last week. That being said, it's unlikely that Blue is going to be ready to play against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. The Cowboys probably aren't going to put Blue into game action without him […]

Kaleb Johnson Unlikely to Have Big Role Right Away

According to Andrew Fillipponi, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson is unlikely to have a big role on offense early in the season. Johnson still needs to work on his pass protection and pass-catching ability before taking on a bigger role. It's still fairly early in training camp, so things could change from now to […]

Jose Ramirez Records Three Hits, Two Steals in Win

Cleveland Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez was all over the place during Thursday's game against the Miami Marlins. Ramirez went 3-for-4 at the plate with singles and three runs scored in the win. He also added one RBI and two stolen bases, which gives him 35 steals on the season. Ramirez now has 25 home […]

Tarik Skubal Pitches Well in No-Decision

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Tarik Skubal didn't factor in the decision during Thursday's start against the Minnesota Twins. Skubal didn't have his normal swing-and-miss stuff during this game. The southpaw only struck out three batters which is his second-fewest in a game this season. He tossed seven innings, allowing three runs on six hits in […]

Closers and Saves Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Report for Week 21 (2025)

Eduardo Rodriguez Sharp During Thursday's Start

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez bounced back nicely on the mound during Thursday's start against the Colorado Rockies.

[…]

Some people […]
