Jakeem Grant A Possible Flex Option

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. has quietly crept his way into the flex appeal conversation. He has produced four receptions for 35 yards or more in each of the last two games. Preston Williams (foot) remains sidelined for the Week 11 matchup versus the Denver Broncos, which is great for Grant. He'll continue […]

DeVante Parker Should Rebound In Week 11

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker was held to two receptions on seven targets for 31 yards in the Week 10 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. It was a rare dud performance by Parker who failed to capitalize on his targets. Fantasy owners shouldn't be concerned and just consider that a fluke performance. Parker […]

Matt Breida Should Resume Backup Role

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida (hamstring) was able to practice fully on Wednesday, so he's expected to suit up against the Denver Broncos in Week 11. Breida has missed two straight games, but his return isn't noteworthy. He has failed to do much damage all season long and Salvon Ahmed looked solid as the […]

Salvon Ahmed An Interesting Choice Against Broncos

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed put together a solid performance against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. He rushed 21 times for 85 yards and one touchdown in the win. It seems like he'll be the lead back going forward even with Matt Breida (hamstring) likely suiting up versus the Denver Broncos this […]

Tua Tagovailoa Mediocre Option In Week 11

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has looked solid over his last two starts. He has thrown five touchdowns without any interceptions during his short NFL career. Sadly, he has only surpassed the 200-yard mark for passing once during his three starts. The Dolphins are winning, but Tagovailoa isn't exactly an amazing fantasy option right now. […]

Damiere Byrd Unlikely To Produce Value

New England Patriots wide receiver Damiere Byrd was completely ignored during the Week 10 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Both Byrd and K'Neal Harry weren't targeted at all during that contest. The Pats continue to go run-heavy and look towards Jakobi Meyers in the passing game. Neither Byrd or Harry is a trustworthy option right […]

N'Keal Harry Avoidable Against Houston

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry was held without a catch during the Week 10 win over the Baltimore Ravens. He returned to the lineup after a two-game absence due to a concussion. The Pats didn't even look his way at all during the game, which is alarming for fantasy owners. This offense continues […]

Jakobi Meyers Holds WR3 Value In Week 11

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has looked like basically the only reliable option on offense over the last few weeks. The Pats continue to target him because Meyers has not failed them yet. He'll get a favorable matchup against the Houston Texans in Week 11. A secondary that has allowed the 10th-most fantasy […]

James White A Shaky Option Right Now

New England Patriots running back James White has failed to put together much fantasy value over the last few weeks. It seems like Damien Harris and Rex Burkhead get a majority of the action in the backfield. White appears to be the odd man out now, so fantasy owners will have a tough time trusting […]

Rex Burkhead A PPR Option Versus Texans

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead has been more involved in the offense over the last few weeks. He found the end zone twice during the Week 10 victory over the Baltimore Ravens. Sadly, his value is mainly useful in PPR leagues since he doesn't get much action in the running game. The Pats […]

Damien Harris A Low-End RB2 In Week 11

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (ankle) has shown that he can be a reliable lead back for this team. He finished with his third game of at least 100 yards rushing during the Week 10 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Sony Michel (quad) remains sidelined, so Harris should continue being the lead back. […]

Cam Newton An Intriguing Option Versus Texans

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton found the end zone twice during the Week 10 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Newton is not the same player that he used to be, but still can be a useful fantasy option when he's efficient. He'll be an intriguing option against the Houston Texans in Week 11. A […]

Hayden Hurst A Solid TE1 For Week 11

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst is in a great spot ahead of an exploitable Week 11 matchup with the Saints. Hurst has now seen at least seven targets in three straight games and has eclipsed 50 yards in five of his last six games. He's been an excellent high-floor option for fantasy managers, though […]

Chris Herndon Continues To Be A Non-Factor

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon has seen his production drop rapidly this season. He went from seven targets in the season opener to zero targets in Week 9. It appears the Jets have given up on the Herndon experiment and are going with Ryan Griffin. It's tough to blame them considering Herndon has […]

Russell Gage A Dicey Play Against New Orleans

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage seems to be trending downward for fantasy purposes. He's played just 55 percent of the snaps over the last two weeks and hasn't exceeded 50 receiving yards in either contest. Still, it's worth noting that Gage has had some of his best games alongside both Julio Jones and Calvin […]

Braxton Berrios Avoidable Versus Chargers

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios is having a rollercoaster season in terms of fantasy production. He saw 11 targets in Week 8 then just one target the following week in the loss to the New England Patriots. The Jets are fairly healthy at wide receiver, so it's unlikely that Berrios has much of […]

Calvin Ridley Expected To Play, Will Be A WR1 In Week 11

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (foot) is expected to be available on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. Ridley put together three straight limited practice sessions, with head coach Raheem Morris saying the team would monitor his foot up to Saturday before making a decision. It seems like he'll be active, as the 25-year-old […]

Denzel Mims Has Low-End PPR Appeal

New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims has seen seven or more targets in two of his first three games in the NFL. He appears to be an important part of their offense, but that doesn't mean a whole lot on the Jets. Mims has plenty of potential, but Joe Flacco is under center versus […]

Breshad Perriman A Risky Choice In Week 11

New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman (shoulder) was limited during practice this week, but is expected to suit up against the Los Angeles Chargers. He posted his best game of the season during his last contest. He hauled in seven receptions for 101 yards and two touchdowns in the loss to the New England […]

Jamison Crowder A Solid WR2 Option

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder is hopeful for a bounce back performance after he posted a dud in Week 9. To be fair, Crowder was only targeted twice, but that should increase versus the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 11. A secondary that is considered bottom-10 in the league right now. Veteran Joe […]

Todd Gurley II More Of A Flex Against Saints

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II faces an extremely tough test against the Saints In Week 11. Only the Buccaneers Defense has been better against the run, as New Orleans has yet to allow a 100-yard rusher this year. To make matters worse, they've surrendered just three rushing touchdowns, which have been Gurley's bread-and-butter […]

La'Mical Perine Finally Gets Starting Job

New York Jets running back La'Mical Perine is reportedly going to be the lead back for the rest of the season. Finally, head coach Adam Gase has decided to give up on the Frank Gore experiment heading into Week 11. The fourth-round rookie hasn't done much damage this season, but was limited because he was […]

Matt Ryan A Low-End QB1 In Week 11

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan faces a semi-tough matchup in Week 11 against the division-rival Saints. The New Orleans defense has been playing better football as of late- though Ryan seemed to get back on track with 284 yards and three touchdowns in Week 9 before the bye. It's looking like he'll get Calvin Ridley […]

Frank Gore Continues Producing Minimal Value

New York Jets running back Frank Gore continues to get 10 or more carries per game for some reason. Head coach Adam Gase refuses to hand over the starting role to La'Mical Perine despite their winless season. It's not often that Gore surpasses the 50-yard mark on the ground most weeks. He'll get a somewhat […]

Joe Flacco Starting Versus Chargers

New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco will get another chance under center during the Week 11 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The veteran quarterback surprisingly played well in his last start against the New England Patriots. The Chargers do struggle against the passing attack. They've allowed the fourth most points to fantasy quarterbacks this […]

Lies, Damned Lies, and Fantasy Statistics - Fantasy Points Per Game

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 11) - Targets and Avoids

Week 10 good had its usual close games and blowouts. Favorites were nearly perfect straight up, going 12-2.

Playoff Tight End Streamers: ROS Schedules to Attack

The tight end position has been a crapshoot all year, which even the seemingly dependable options like Zach Ertz, George Kittle, and Mark Andrews either hurt or failing to meet expectations. That has left the landscape as Travis Kelce and a whole bunch of other guys, which has amounted to a massive headache for fantasy […]
