Defenses to Stream AGAINST - Favorable Upcoming Matchups to Target

We're four weeks into the NFL season, which means that while we still don't know a lot about the teams in the league, we do know slightly more than we knew a month ago. For example, we have some data about defenses now, which means we can start to think about how we can target […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 5

Week 4 of the 2021 NFL season is officially in the books. Just like in Weeks 1, 2, and 3, overreactions will undoubtedly be made, but there's also a lot of good information we can use to help make decisions as we head into Week 5 and beyond. In years past, we'd be a quarter […]

Key Fantasy Football Data from Week 4

Four weeks in the books! We have a serious amount of data to look at now for the season, and to me, this is where the fun really begins. Week four brought us some really disappointing performances from the early-season breakout names, as well as some very consequential injuries. It's always best to review the […]

Offensive Outliers From Week 4 - Coaching Matters

We now enter the fourth week of this series, where I dive into offensive areas that will improve or decline based on coaching in order to glean insight as to fantasy football value.

In addition, 10 different teams had a starter go […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 5) - Targets and Avoids

You can't get a third down stop or fourth down stop without seeing some yellow laundry. It's an epidemic. I wrote about this last week and usually don't like to have the same lead two weeks in a row, but it's out of control. The referees don't stop calling holding and pass interference penalties. When […]

Ryan Tannehill A QB2 In Week 5, Could Be Without Top Weapons

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill will look to bounce back in Week 5 against the Jacksonville Jaguars after getting sacked seven times and hit on 14 occasions in last Sunday's loss to the New York Jets. The Titans QB could be without his top to targets Julio Jones (hamstring) and A.J. Brown (hamstring) for the […]

Russell Wilson Could Be In For A Big Week 5

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has been mostly held in check so far this season, but that could change in Week 5 against the Los Angeles Rams. He has just one game with more than two passing touchdowns, and he has only gone over the 300-yard mark once through four games. Against the Rams, we […]

Matthew Stafford Should Play Well In Week 5

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford didn't have his best game in Week 4, but he has a solid matchup to bounce back in Week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks.

Michael Florio's Week 5 Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds

The waiver wire had been pretty thin to open the season, especially in deep leagues. Sure, there were weeks with one big piece to grab, but the chances are that in a 16-team league or deeper, people went very aggressive on that player, perhaps even spending all their FAAB on someone like Elijah Mitchell or […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5

Through three weeks it seemed like defenses had the advantage in the NFL. However, Week 4 gave fantasy managers hope that the explosive offenses we saw for much of 2020 could get back on track again. 13 teams scored at least 27 points in Week 4 and 11 games went over a 40 point total. […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 5 Lightning Round

Week 4 was a high-scoring affair and I'm sure some of you are seeking reinforcements despite dropping 150! Keep one foot on the ground and don't burn down the roster if you're above average in Total Points. The matchup variance will even out. That said, there are some key additions available in plenty of leagues. […]

Isaiah Wynn Lands On COVID-19 List

The New England Patriots placed offensive linemen Isaiah Wynn and Michael Onwenu on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday.

Javonte Williams, Melvin Gordon To Be Leaned On More?

Denver Broncos running backs Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon III could see themselves being relied upon more as the offense will look to establish a strong running game.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Apparently Jimmy Garoppolo could be ready to play this Sunday, which in theory could put the breaks on a 49ers squad led by rookie QB Trey Lance for the rest of the season.
