Terry McLaurin A Locked-In WR1 Despite Tough Matchup

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin has been one of the most consistent fantasy options and should be locked-into starting lineups despite a tough matchup in Pittsburgh. McLaurin has seven catches in five of his last six games and has at least 74 yards in every game in that span. On the season, McLaurin […]

Washington Defense A Risky Option In Pittsburgh

The Washington Football Team defense has been good for fantasy at times this season, but they are not a recommended option in Week 13. Washington's strength has been it's ferocious defensive line featuring Ryan Kerrigan and Chase Young. The Steelers, however, have allowed a league-low 10 sacks this season as the undefeated unit has shredded […]

Browns Run-Heavy Offense Zaps Rashard Higgins’ Appeal

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Rashard Higgins looked earlier this season as if he would benefit immensely within the team's offense after the loss of Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) for the remainder of the season. But after logging his fifth game of the year last week with one catch or fewer, Higgins has lost any season-long […]

J.D. McKissic A Risky Fantasy Option In Brutal Matchup

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic has been quiet in recent weeks and faces another tough test Monday against the Steelers. McKissic burst onto the fantasy scene when Alex Smith took over at QB for Washington as the veteran peppered McKissic with 29 targets in his first two games. Since then, however, McKissic has […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. A Risky Week 13 Backfield Option

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. led his team in carries (10) last week versus San Francisco, but he managed just 19 yards rushing. That lack of production has become glaring for Henderson, whose production has ebbed throughout 2020. Cam Akers and Malcolm Brown loom as perpetual threats to chip away at Henderson's […]

Marvin Jones Jr. Headlines WR Core Sunday, Faces Tough Defense

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. is in line to be the team's top wideout target Sunday versus the Bears with Kenny Golladay (hip) once again out of the mix. But unfortunately for Jones, he has the double whammy of catching passes from a banged-up quarterback (Matthew Stafford, hip) and facing a stout defense […]

Antonio Gibson Has Tough Matchup In Pittsburgh Monday

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson will face a stiff test in his first game since shredding the Cowboys for 128 yards and three touchdowns. The rookie running back introduced himself to the nation with the huge Thanksgiving performance, but now faces a Steelers Defense that allows the fewest fantasy points to opposing running […]

LeGarrette Blount Announces Retirement Saturday

Veteran running back LeGarrette Blount announced his retirement from the NFL on Saturday, ending a nine-year career that ended three times with a Super Bowl victory. Blount's best individual season came in 2016 when he led the NFL in rushing touchdowns (18) with the Patriots. Known for his bruising rushing style, Blount carried considerable fantasy […]

Baltimore Eyes Trace McSorley, Tyler Huntley For Week 13 Start

The Baltimore Ravens' quarterback room was first set back by the loss of Lamar Jackson (COVID-19), before Robert Griffin III (hamstring) landed on injured reserve. That leaves the duo of Trace McSorley and Tyler Huntley as the likely candidates to start under center for Tuesday's game against Dallas. McSorley threw his first professional passes last […]

Pittsburgh Activates Stephon Tuitt Off COVID-19/Reserve List

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive end Stephon Tuitt (COVID-19 list) was activated off of the COVID-19/reserve list Saturday, paving the way for a potential return to action in Week 13 for Monday's game versus Washington. Having landed on the list prior to last week's game versus Baltimore, Tuitt has now cleared protocols and is eligible to return […]

Anthony Firkser Could Be Sneaky Good Play In Week 13

Tennessee Titans tight end Anthony Firkser will fill in for injured Jonnu Smith this week against the Browns. Fantasy players should have all the confidence in the world in firing up Anthony Firkser, who accrued a team-high 21.9% target share with 29 routes on Ryan Tannehill's 46 dropbacks in his only spot-start for Smith this […]

Corey Davis Establishing Himself As Solid WR3

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis has racked up at least 67 yards in six of his nine appearances for the Titans this season, and he'll continue to serve as the team's No. 2 receivers behind A.J. Brown when the Browns come to town in Week 13. Davis has quietly established something of a decent […]

Week 13 Fantasy Football Sleepers and Value Plays

The "King", Scott Engel, and Real Talk Raph of RotoBaller identify the best fantasy football sleepers and value plays for season-long and DFS lineups for Week 13 of fantasy football. Target these players for use if you need a lineup plug-in or are looking to save some DFS cash in your DraftKings and FanDuel lineups. […]

A.J. Brown Poised For Another Big Day

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown has put his explosive ability on display with eight receiving touchdowns in his last eight games, and Tennessee's top option in the passing game will look to get back into the end zone in Week 13 against a Browns team that has allowed 13 touchdowns to wide receivers this […]

Derrick Henry Could See More Targets In Passing Game

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry exploded for three touchdowns in last week's blowout win. He's been running as a man possessed. The Titans host a Browns team that's limiting opponents to 108 yards per game on the ground, but that should be no issues for Henry who is in mid-season stride. Titans coach Mike […]

Ryan Tannehill Should Be Borderline QB1

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill picked up his 23rd passing touchdown and second rushing touchdown last week, and he'll be relied upon to lead Tennessee's offense in Week 13 against a Browns Defense that's right around league average against the pass while ranking a bit tougher against the run. Tannehill has a sneaky great matchup […]

Chef's Special - NFL Best Bets for Week 13

All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard.  The cold streak is officially over going undefeated on the Thanksgiving slate and the Sunday slate.  There are a few spots I like this week, and I could possibly add two additional plays depending on injury news.  The Bears missed my card because Akiem […]

Randy Bullock Better Left On Bench

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Randy Bullock is better left on the bench this week. The kicker is coming off a miserable performance just a couple of weeks ago with two missed field goals and a missed extra point. On the season, Bullock has gone for 21-for-25 in field goals and 23-for-24 in extra points. The Dolphins […]

Bengals Defense Not Worth Starting

The Cincinnati Bengals Defense is not worth starting this week against a Dolphins squad that has a capable QB in Ryan Fitzpatrick. In nine of 11 games this season, this unit has allowed at least 20 points and features no elite names. Add in the fact that this unit ranks near the bottom of the […]

Drew Sample Not A Starting Option

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Drew Sample is not a starting option this week. Sample has gotten 40 and 29 yards along with nine total targets the past two weeks, but his role has been inconsistent all season. Look no further than several games where he posted little to no yards. Add in a backup QB […]

A.J. Green A Risky Play

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green is a very risky play this week. After a couple of solid games in October, Green has regressed. The WR has seen 17 targets in the past three games but has only managed four receptions for 41 yards total in those three games. In two of the past three […]

Isaiah Coulter Has DFS Sleeper Appeal

While the matchup isn't great against the Indianapolis Colts, Houston Texans wide receiver Isaiah Coulter has appeal in some formats this week under the assumption that he'll take over as the team's second outside receiver now that Will Fuller V is suspended. Coulter -- who had been on the IR with a neck injury -- […]

Tee Higgins A Flex In Week 13

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is a solid flex play this week against the Dolphins. Higgins has seen at least five targets in all 10 games played this season. He has also gotten at least 60 yards in six of 10 games. In the past two games, Higgins hasn't eclipsed more than 44 yards, […]

Tyler Boyd A WR3 This Week

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd is a WR3 this week against Miami. Boyd has seen at least seven targets in nine of 11 games but has been a bit inconsistent in terms of weekly yardage. It's worth noting Boyd has over 50 yards in seven of 11 games, so this makes him a solid […]

Mark Andrews Is Strong Play If Active

We still don't know the status of Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews for Tuesday's contest against the Dallas Cowboys, as he remains on the COVID list. It's possible if Andrews will be able to play Tuesday if he was asymptomatic and is cleared to return, though if he showed COVID symptoms, the return window […]

Giovani Bernard An RB3 In Week 13

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard is worth RB3 consideration this week. Bernard has been the lead back on the Bengals for a bit now but has only gotten more than 40 rushing yards once in the past five games. The RB provides modest value in the passing game too and he has seen at […]

Logan Thomas Has Tough Week 13 Matchup

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas has been better for fantasy in recent weeks but has a brutal matchup in Pittsburgh for Week 13. The Steelers allow the fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends and Thomas has struggled to put up fantasy points when he doesn't find the end zone. Thomas […]

Marvin Vettori Could Be In The Title Hunt

Marvin Vettori (15-3-1) has won three in a row since dropping a split decision to middleweight champion Israel Adesanya in April of 2018. Nine of Vettori's 15 career wins have come by submission, including a rear-naked, first-round choke that led to victory in his last outing against Karl Roberson in June. DraftKings has the Italian […]

Marquise Brown Finally Looking Up?

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown had gone through weeks of struggle heading into Week 12's meeting with the Steelers, averaging 1.5 catch for 13.8 yards per game over a four game stretch. Yikes. But with backup quarterbacks playing, Brown finally looked like the player he was drafted to be, catching four passes for 85 […]
