Terry McLaurin In A Smash-Spot Against Dallas

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin has his best matchup in several weeks as the Dallas Cowboys head to the nation's capital. Over the last five weeks, McLaurin has been opposite four Pro Bowl cornerbacks as well as James Bradberry who is well on his way to earning "shutdown corner" status this season. Despite […]

Damiere Byrd Might Hold Deep League Value

New England Patriots wide receiver Damiere Byrd has put together a couple of decent games for this offense thus far. The passing attack in New England hasn't been pretty, but Byrd is making the most of it. He hauled in three of his four targets for 38 yards in the loss to the Denver Broncos […]

Kyle Allen Has Good Matchup In Week 7

Washington Football Team quarterback Kyle Allen will get the nod under center for the second-straight week and will face a good matchup versus a struggling Cowboys Defense. Allen played well in his first start last week throwing for 280 yards and two touchdowns with an interception. This week, he'll face another soft matchup versus Dallas […]

N'Keal Harry Tough To Trust Versus 49ers

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry has been a tough player to own in fantasy leagues this season. It's almost impossible to predict his fantasy value on a weekly basis. He finished with zero receptions on two targets in the loss to the Denver Broncos last week. It's unlikely that things are going to […]

Julian Edelman Holds Low-End WR3 Value

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman has been having a difficult time getting anything going over the last few weeks. It doesn't seem that quarterback Cam Newton and Edelman are able to develop any kind of chemistry together. Last week, Edelman finished with two receptions for eight yards in the loss to the Denver […]

Rex Burkhead Avoidable In Week 7

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead has not seen a big role in the offense since the return of James White. Last week, Burkhead saw five carries for 14 yards in the loss to the Denver Broncos. It won't get easier for Burkhead against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7. He'll be against […]

James White Has PPR Flex Appeal

New England Patriots running back James White has been a reliable PPR option over the last few weeks. This team doesn't have many weapons on offense, which often leads to screen passes and short routes to White. Last week, White hauled in eight receptions for 65 yards in the loss to the Denver Broncos. Often […]

Damien Harris Has Tough Challenge In Week 7

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris has become the lead back, but was unable to do much last week. He rushed six times for 19 yards in the loss to the Denver Broncos. It won't get any easier for Harris as he faces the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7. A team that has […]

Cam Newton Unfavorable Option Against 49ers

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton has thrown for less than 200 yards in three of his four games this season. The veteran quarterback has been able to salvage his fantasy value by running the ball. He rushed for 76 yards and a touchdown in the loss to the Denver Broncos last week. Newton doesn't […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Texas O'Reilly Auto Parts 300 (10/24/20)

The next race of the Xfinity Series postseason is on Saturday at Texas Motor Speedway, and Emmitt Smith is the Grand Marshal of it, so that's cool! Three spots in the season finale are still up for grabs after Chase Briscoe won at Kansas to clinch one of the spots. Trouble of Austin Cindric at […]

Can Tampa Bay finally stem the offensive tidal wive that the Dodgers have begun to unleash?

Martin Truex Jr. Still Winless At Texas

Joe Gibbs Racing's Martin Truex Jr. will fire off from the sixth position in Sunday's Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. Truex comes into Texas needing to snag a win or rack up points to help him reach the championship race. In his 30 career starts at TMS, Truex has never won a […]

Raiders Defense Should Remain On Bench

The Las Vegas Raiders defense has been statistically one of the worst defenses in the league this season. They are averaging under two fantasy points per game and face an ascending Buccaneers offense this week. Tom Brady is currently fourth in the league in passing touchdowns, and this Tampa Bay offense is ascending after hanging […]

Darren Waller A Must-Start Despite Tough Matchup

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller has a tough test against the Buccaneers this week, but he should be able to produce a solid fantasy performance. Waller has been great at home this season, with 21 catches, 193 yards, and a touchdown in two games. The Buccaneers have one of the league's best defenses, […]

Ryan Blaney Starts 10th At Texas

Penske Racing's Ryan Blaney will take the green flag from the 10th position in Sunday's Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. Blaney is coming off of a solid seventh-place run at Kansas and will look for some redemption after the July race at Texas. In that event, Blaney started second and dominated, sweeping […]

Henry Ruggs III A Fringe Flex Option In Week 7

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III will have a tough matchup against a good Buccaneers secondary in Week 7. Ruggs had a breakout performance in his last game against the Chiefs, but his value rests with the deep ball at this time. That is not great news considering the Buccaneers are one of […]

Josh Jacobs Has Tough Test Against Buccaneers

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs will face one of the league's best run defenses this week in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Buccaneers are allowing just three yards per carry and rank second in the league in total rushing yards allowed. Jacobs is having a productive year and is certainly a must-start option, […]

Derek Carr Faces Stingy Week 7 Matchup

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will have one of his most difficult tests of the year against a great Buccaneers Defense. The Buccaneers defense has allowed just seven passing touchdowns and have grabbed eight interceptions in their six games this season. Opposing quarterbacks have a passer rating of 82 against this Todd Bowles defense. […]

Jimmie Johnson Has Massive Upside At Texas

Hendrick Motorsports driver Jimmie Johnson will roll off from the 26th position in Sunday's Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. Johnson is coming to the end of his run in the No. 48, and Texas will be one of Johnson's best chances to get that classic final win. In 34 career starts at […]

Kevin Harvick Starts From The Pole At Texas

Stewart-Haas Racing's Kevin Harvick will start from the pole position in Sunday's Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. Harvick finished runner-up at Kansas last week and is looking to continue his performance in the fall playoff race at Texas. Harvick only has three TMS victories, but they have all come in the last […]

Saints Defense A Starting Option In Week 7

The New Orleans Saints Defense faces a middle-of-the-pack matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 7. It's a date with former Saint Teddy Bridgewater, who started five games for the team in 2019. New Orleans' defense is finally starting to get healthy after a rash of injuries, as they will get Janoris Jenkins (shoulder) back […]

Wil Lutz Gets Favorable Matchup

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz faces a favorable matchup in Week 7 against the Carolina Panthers. Lutz is perfect on the season, having made all nine field-goals and all 18 extra-points. Carolina ranks 22nd in fantasy points allowed to kickers, making this a juicy matchup for Lutz. Expect strong fantasy numbers from the 26-year-old.

Jared Cook Could See More Opportunities

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook could see more opportunities in Week 7 against the Panthers. Cook had one of his better games against the Chargers, catching two passes for 52 yards and a score. New Orleans is down two of it's best pass-catchers- Michael Thomas (ankle, hamstring) and Emmanuel Sanders (COVID-19)- heading into […]

Tre'Quan Smith Looking At Expanded Role

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith faces a tricky matchup in Week 7 against the Panthers. However, matchup concerns are alleviated by the fact that New Orleans will be without Michael Thomas (ankle, hamstring) and Emmanuel Sanders (COVID-19). Smith will be busy against a Panthers Defense that has surrendered the fourth-fewest fantasy points per […]

Re-Evaluating the Rookie Running Back Class of 2020

We're six weeks into the 2020 NFL season and are starting to get some good ideas of what usage patterns are looking like. Which means we probably have enough data now to start to re-evaluate where certain players stand in relation to other players. For example, we've got a better idea of how this year's […]
