FAAB Waiver Wire Bidding - Fantasy Football Pickups to Target for Week 4

Week 3 brought more injury fallout than the first two weeks, but the waiver wire still feels relatively dry compared to previous seasons.

Dak Prescott Will Likely Return In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) has missed the past two weeks with a thumb injury and did not practice on Wednesday.

Tua Tagovailoa Questionable For Thursday Night

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle, back) is officially listed as questionable to play on Thursday night against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Cooper Rush Not A Fantasy Option In Week 4 Despite Solid Play

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush is not a strong fantasy option in Week 4 despite leading the Cowboys to two wins so far as Dak Prescott's (thumb) fill-in. Rush has played mostly mistake-free football and while he is certainly performing better than most people expected, he has almost no fantasy upside. Week 4 should be […]

Mac Jones Making Progress, Brian Hoyer In Line To Start

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said that quarterback Mac Jones (ankle) has made a lot of progress in the last 24 to 48 hours, and the team is taking it day-to-day. Veteran QB Brian Hoyer will get the start in Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers in the likely event that Jones […]

Dak Prescott Not Expected To Practice Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) is not expected to practice on Wednesday after having just gotten his stitches removed from his surgically repaired right thumb.

Zach Wilson Medically Cleared, Will Start In Week 4

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh announced on Wednesday that quarterback Zach Wilson (knee) has been medically cleared and will start in Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, barring any setbacks.

Should I Be Concerned About Russell Wilson for Week 4? Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy football general managers who drafted Russell Wilson to be their QB1 must be wondering if they made a Nathaniel Hackett-like error in judgment. The Denver Broncos arguably made the biggest trade this offseason when they sent multiple players and draft picks to the Seattle Seahawks for Wilson. He was supposed to jumpstart a mediocre […]

Geno Smith's Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith will head on the road to face off against the Detroit Lions in Week 4.

Titans Sign Le'Raven Clark Tuesday

The Tennessee Titans signed offensive lineman Le'Raven Clark off the Philadelphia Eagles practice squad on Tuesday. Clark will give the team some more offensive line depth after it was announced that left tackle Taylor Lewan (knee) will miss the rest of the 2022 season. Starting in Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts, Dennis Daley will […]

Jameis Winston Is A Risky Option For Week 4

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston has struggled through the first three weeks of the regular season. Despite that, head coach Dennis Allen plans on sticking with Winston through the rough times. Honestly, the Saints don't have many better options with Andy Dalton and Taysom Hill as the other choices at quarterback. Winston has four […]

Dak Prescott Remains Without A Timetable To Resume Throwing

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) does not have a timetable to begin throwing, according to head coach Mike McCarthy.

Tua Tagovailoa "Will Do Everything He Can" To Play Thursday

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle, back) could be held out of action in Week 4 against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. According to head coach Mike McDaniel, Tagovailoa would be limited in practice and questionable for the game if it were a normal week. The third-year signal-caller "will do everything he can" to […]

Dak Prescott Targeting Week 5 Return?

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott's fractured right thumb no longer has any swelling and is healing properly after he had his stitches removed. He told NFL Network's Jane Slater that the Week 5 game against the Los Angeles Rams is a game that he could possibly start. Slater gets the sense that Prescott would go […]

Getting Dubs In Duval: Analyzing The Jaguars In Fantasy Football Going Forward

The Jacksonville Jaguars might be good. Yeah, I'm as surprised as you are, but after beating the Chargers 38-10, the Jaguars look dangerous. The team has scored 22 or more points in each of its games this season, which is notable since in 17 games last season, the team hit that mark just twice. And […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 57% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It may have taken a year, but Trevor Lawrence is starting to look like the quarterback we thought he could be when he was selected first overall in the 2021 NFL Draft.

Jameis Winston (QB, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 4

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 42% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Having a QB2-level performance tossing the ball to Chris Olave doesn't sound like a bad outing.

Geno Smith (QB, SEA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 4

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Seahawks might not be in such a great position as their former QB could put them into, but current veteran starter Geno Smith has been much better than advertised.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB/Superflex Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Reports indicate that Zach Wilson will be cleared to play starting in Week 4’s matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You can't name 12 quarterbacks better than Marcus Mariota.
