Fantasy Football Matchups We Love - Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 6 Include Jordan Love, Zach Ertz, Terry McLaurin, Dak Prescott, Breece Hall, more

Finally, the offensive explosion we have been waiting for manifested itself in Week 5. Certain games such as Bengals/Ravens or Jaguars/Colts provided a lot of fantasy fun. It seems as though teams have finally hit their stride as players and coaches get acclimated to the regular season. In an age where it is uncommon for […]

As the NFL season marches into Week 6, fantasy football managers are navigating the shifting tides of player performance, injuries, and emerging trends.

Sneaky Starts, Pivot Plays, and Post-Waiver Pickups for Week 6 - Jalen Tolbert, Braelon Allen, Alec Pierce and More!

The injuries continue to pile up. Another week, more big receivers missing time. It is very frustrating, but as I said earlier in the season, you just have to stay afloat. You do not need to have the best record or the most points.  If you are able to stay around .500 until your team […]

Booms and Busts - Fantasy Football Starts and Sits for Week 6 Lineups Including Daniel Jones, Zay Flowers, Tank Dell, More

The NFL season marches forward, and another week of football is upon us. We have done pretty well correctly identifying boom/bust plays so far. Week 5, however, was not kind to us. Deshaun Watson, Jerry Jeudy, and the Cleveland offense continued their struggles. Garrett Wilson, whom we labeled as a bust, finally popped. Dak Prescott, […]

Wide Receiver Sleepers, Risers, Fantasy Football Breakouts - Targets, Air Yards, Snaps Trends Analysis For Week 6 (2024)

Targets are paramount when it comes to evaluating pass-catchers for fantasy football. There are no air yards, receiving yards, receptions, or touchdowns without first earning a target. There’s a reason the biggest and most consistent target-earners are among the top fantasy point scorers: they can be relied on by not just their team’s offense to […]

Fantasy Football Rookie Report for Week 6 - Searching for League Winners

Week 4's Rookie Report told you to urgently buy Jacksonville Jaguars freshman wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. We sure hope you did. The rookie smashed yet again and proved that rookies can be incredibly important pieces of fantasy football teams. Thomas will probably start in most leagues after his consecutive week-winning performances in Weeks 4-5. […]

Stroud, Daniel Jones, and Baker Mayfield rank […]

Caleb Williams A Borderline QB1 With Upside Against The Jaguars

This Sunday, Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams presents a high-risk, high-reward option as he goes up against the struggling Jacksonville Jaguars. In Week 5, Williams completed 20 of 29 passes for 304 yards and two touchdowns, managing to avoid turnovers. This performance marks the second time he has surpassed 300 passing yards in three […]

Temper Expectations For Bo Nix In Week 6

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix should be treated as a low-end QB2 in fantasy in a Week 6 divisional matchup at home against the Los Angeles Chargers, who are coming off their bye week. Nix threw for a measly 60 yards in the Week 4 upset win over the New York Jets but was […]

DraftKings Late Night CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/12/24)

I will never understand why DraftKings is so dense when it comes to these late-night slates. They left a perfect good Minnesota-UCLA game at the Rose Bowl off of this slate because it started a half-hour earlier. They didn't put it on the evening slate, so why not tack it on here? We still have […]

Fantasy Football Injury Updates for Week 6: Anthony Richardson, Malik Nabers, Jonathan Taylor, A.J. Brown, James Cook

With four teams taking their bye this week, injuries continue to be a major factor as leagues already near the halfway point of fantasy regular seasons.

NFL DFS: FanDuel Daily Fantasy Football Picks for Week 6 - Top Lineup Plays Include Joe Burrow, Brock Bowers, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Bijan Robinson

The Chiefs, Rams, Dolphins, and Vikings will get a day off. As a result, fantasy managers will be without Kyren Williams, Patrick Mahomes, and Tyreek Hill, among others in Week 6. But after the Thursday night matchup between the 49ers and Seahawks and another London game on Sunday morning, Week 6 rolls on with an […]

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/12/24)

We are back again, RotoBallers! We get another tasty matchup this week in the late slate of games. The Dallas Cowboys are taking on the Detroit Lions in what should be an offensive shootout.

Daniel Jones Is A Solid Option In Week 6

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has had a solid start to the 2024 season, with 1,138 passing yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions through five games. Coming off a 29-20 win against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 5, where he threw for 257 yards and two touchdowns, Jones will look to build momentum against […]

Aaron Rodgers Limited Again On Friday

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (ankle) was limited in Friday's practice. He was also limited on Thursday because of a sprained ankle suffered during the loss to the Minnesota Vikings. However, barring a setback, the signal-caller should be good to go for Monday's divisional clash with the Buffalo Bills. Rodgers hasn't had the best […]

Drake Maye Not Yet Trustworthy In Fantasy Football

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, who was the No. 3 overall pick in 2024 and is slated to make his first career start in Week 6 against the Houston Texans, has undeniable upside but is not yet a worthwhile option in most fantasy football leagues. Maye takes over the reins of the Patriots after […]

Justin Herbert Cleared For Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (ankle) no longer carries an injury designation heading into the AFC West clash with the Broncos. The signal-caller was limited at practice on Wednesday and Thursday because of an ankle injury. However, he's made progress and logged a full session on Friday, clearing the way for his availability. Herbert […]

Baker Mayfield - Week 6 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues/Superflex Formats POSITIONAL VALUE: QB1/QB2 ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield has been a strong QB1 option this year. He has finished as a top-eight fantasy quarterback in four of five weeks and currently ranks as the QB3 heading into Week 6. However, expectations should be tempered for […]

Joe Burrow Desperate For A Win On Sunday Night

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has been one of the best in the league at his position this season. He was quiet in the opener against the New England Patriots. Since then, the signal-caller has thrown at least two touchdowns in each of his last four games. Burrow had his best showing of the 2024-25 […]

Lamar Jackson Ready For Battle Of The Beltway

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is set to compete in the second "Battle of the Beltway" in his career. The two-time MVP is on a tremendous streak of QB1-level finishes this season as he's hit that mark in all five games with QB10 being his lowest weekly rank. He's sitting at the overall QB1 on […]

Kirk Cousins Takes On Porous Carolina Defense In Week 6

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins is coming off a career game in Week 5 versus Tampa Bay in which he threw for 509 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception. Before that game, however, the 36-year-old had only one multi-touchdown-pass performance in four games, averaged just 216 yards per game, and threw four picks during that […]

Trevor Lawrence With Difficult Matchup In Week 6

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence faces off with the Chicago Bears in Week 6, a defense that has been one of the best against the pass in the NFL so far.
