Jeremy Hill (RB, CIN) - Players Showing Warning Signals

Of all the players on my warning signals list this week, Cincinnati running back Jeremy Hill is the one that seems to have raised the most eyebrows. Through two weeks, Hill only has 102 rushing yards but does have two touchdowns, both of which came in Week One. The more worrisome tidbit of information is the […]

DeMarco Murray (RB, PHI) - Players Showing Warning Signals

I had added Murray to my list of players with warning signals, long before the news of his injured hamstring came to be. For this week alone, you’re just gong to have to wait and see if Murray can go but as an overall point, I’m already done holding my breath. The Eagles can’t seem […]

C.J. Anderson (RB, DEN) - Week 3 Lineup Booms

We have all heard the complaints from Anderson owners, about how he has been one of the biggest busts of the young season. Heck, even Anderson himself is hearing the complaints. Detroit is amongst the worst in the league at stopping the run so far (29th overall), while also being dead last in rushing touchdowns allowed. […]

Chris Polk (RB, HOU) - Week 3 DFS Lineup Sleepers

Arian Foster is still out, and Jonathan Grimes is a game-time decision. While Alfred Blue predictably failed to make any real mark, Chris Polk might just be in prime position to have himself a great day at the hands of Tampa Bay's struggling defense. While many people who "pay down" for running back are going […]

Melvin Gordon (RB, SD) - Week 3 DFS Lineup Sleepers

Even if owners are drawn to the Chargers matchup against a Vikings defense that has been destroyed on the ground, they're much more likely to take the cheaper buzzier option in Danny Woodhead. While there's merit to picking Woodhead over Gordon when there's a $600 difference, we're looking to zig where other's are zagging. There's […]

Week 3 DraftKings Deeper Sleeper Tournament Plays

We're back in the mines for Week 3! Last week we actually hit on a lot more DraftKings lineup picks than I would expect for deeper sleeper plays, with Crockett Gillmore being the best find. Weeks 1 and 2 have come and gone, and now we've got two data points really weighing on everyone's mind. […]

Five Players Sending Out Warning Signals

Last week we took a look at five players who might be sending out warning signals for what’s to come for the rest of the season. With a second game under everyone’s belt, there are some players who have unfortunately disappointed us twice in a row. It’s in this two-to-three week range where you’ll most […]

The Daily Divide: Week Three DFS

Daily Divide: Week Three Matt and Nathan each offer Week 3 cash game picks for every position, then the other insults or compliments those picks, as warranted. They hope their arguments debates provide enough information to make help people make their own decisions. Matt probably makes more good points than Nathan though, over the long […]

Dion Lewis (RB, NE) - Fantasy Football Sell Highs?

Among the biggest surprises thus far in 2015, Lewis is in the top-5 of fantasy RBs and has emerged as a legitimate force in the Patriots backfield. That may not last forever, though. Lewis saw his carries drop from 15 in Week 1 to only seven in Week 2. Although he managed enough elsewhere to […]

English Premier League Transfer Targets: Matchday Seven

Once again, Dan looks at the more enticing transfer targets in the English Premier League for fantasy managers as week 7 approaches. Asmir Begovic – Goalkeeper – Chelsea – 5.0m Season Stats: 307 Minutes Played, 1 Clean Sheet, 7 Goals Conceded, 17 Saves Premier League Points: 13 (T-18th Ranked Goalkeeper) Week 7 Fixture: (A) vs. Newcastle: […]

Barclay's Premier League Week 7 - Saturday Previews And Predictions.

It's week 7 of the EPL and, unlike last week's warning as to a Champions League hangover plus our prediction that West Ham would take all three points at Manchester City, no similar warnings from the midweek League Cup action where most EPL sides make changes and rest up varying members of their first team squads. This week […]

Demarco Murray (RB, PHI) - Fantasy Football Buy Lows

The only way to truly grasp just how bad the Eagles offense was last Sunday was to watch the game from beginning to end. It looked like Dallas knew Philly’s plays. In the midst of that implosion, Murray had arguably the worst rushing game of his career. The reigning league rushing champion found himself with […]

2015 Fantasy Football Week 3: Risers and Fallers From Week 2

Two weeks are now in the books, and there’s more than enough to react to. Most importantly, keep your wits about you--look at who each team has gone against and who they’re about to face. For instance, Lamar Miller is a pretty clear “faller” due to his performance and now an injury, but he gets […]

Trade Advice: Week 3 Buy Lows, Sell Highs for Fantasy Football

Welcome to our Week 3 buy low / sell high, where we look to provide fantasy football trade advice. With Week 2 now in the books, breakouts and busts are beginning to surface as teams begin to approach mid-season form. Some of those busts will stay busts, but others could see rapid turn-arounds. Inversely, some of […]

Deeper PPR Lineup Sleepers for Week 3: Josh Robinson, Rishard Matthews, Scott Chandler

Week 2 is the in books and a lot of strange things have happened already. DeMarco Murray, an early-round pick, has rushed for only 11 yards this season. Meanwhile, Travis Benjamin, who went mostly undrafted, has three receiving TDs on only six receptions. It may be time to get some sleepers on your roster as […]

Week 3 Running Back Depth Charts for Fantasy Football

Week 2 was full of wacky and wild performances and the injury bug was in full contagion. For the most part, injuries were isolated to quarterbacks, defensive players and big men. Oddly enough, most running backs were spared. That didn't stop a handful of teams from completely changing their rushing attack over the course of […]

Daily Fantasy Football Picks and Advice: Week 3 NFL DFS DraftKings Lineups and Sleepers

Welcome to the Week 3 edition of Daily Fantasy Football DraftKings Targets. An introduction is not really all that necessary, as the title of this DFS article pretty much sums up what is going to be discussed. It's important to identify players with good match ups, but we also want to look at their DraftKings' […]

Jeremy Hill (RB, CIN) - Fantasy Football Fallers

It’s very concerning to see Jeremy Hill struggle to hold onto the ball and just lack any real giddy-up when he gets the ball. Making things worse, Giovani Bernard is looking really good. Hill was benched for Bernard in Week 2 after his second fumble. So far ProFootballFocus gives Bernard a 2.5 rating, while Hill […]

Sam Bradford, DeMarco Murray, Nelson Agholor (PHI) - Fantasy Football Fallers

We’ll use the same blanket blurb that the Broncos deserved last week, and the Saints might have been here but the Eagles then fell on their faces in the afternoon games. Seriously though, people are (rightfully) pulling their hair out. Chip Kelly noted that the entire offense is under the microscope, and no one is safe. […]

Joique Bell (RB, DET) - Fantasy Football Fallers

Is it cheap to start the Fallers section with the same guy who kicked it off in Week 1? This is a quick one, because guys like the aforementioned David Johnson and Matt Jones really look more worthy of a roster spot than Joique Bell does. Bell missing much of training camp might point to […]

Dion Lewis (RB, NE) - Fantasy Football Risers

If you’ve had Dion Lewis these first two weeks, you are feeling good. There’s still that uneasiness though, because it’s Bill Belichick. The Patriots rolled out another pass-heavy game plan against the Bills in Week 2, and even though LeGarrette Blount was activated from his one-game suspension, he barely saw the field. Dion Lewis was THE […]

David Johnson (RB, ARI) - Fantasy Football Risers

Bruce Arians can prop up this “smaller role” for David Johnson thing until he’s blue in the face, but Arians can’t ignore how electric the rookie is. Chris Johnson had 20 carries to David Johnson’s five carries. DJ still turned those five carries into 42 yards and a score, and you probably saw that he opened the game […]

Josh Robinson (RB, IND) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This is not going to say that Robinson is going to go off for 30 fantasy points and overtake Frank Gore for the starting spot in the Colts' backfield. But, two games into his career, Robinson has already proven to be a valuable […]

Dexter McCluster (RB, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues Ownership: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Dexter McCluster is not going to be a week-in, week-out fantasy starter at any point this year, but he has the ability to bust a big play out of the backfield or slot, or on special teams, and is coming off a week where […]

Thursday Night NFL Matchups Analysis: Week 3 Start/Sit for Fantasy Football

Is Eli Manning still an elite quarterback? Just kidding, that discussion is not happening here nor should it ever be a click-bait worthy headline ever again. Manning and the Giants host the Washington Redskins in this week’s Thursday Night Football matchup in Week 3 of the NFL season. As usual, below are some of the key […]

Lance Dunbar (RB, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues. OWNED IN: 15% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While the running back battle rages on in Dallas, it seems that a certain split has come about regarding Lance Dunbar. Can this guy even be considered a tail back anymore? Through two weeks, Dunbar has rushed the ball only one time for an […]

James Starks (RB, GB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Another week another injury...this one is with Green Bay Packers starting running back Eddie Lacy.  Last week Lacy went down with an ankle injury in the first quarter.  His backup, James Starks, did a bang up job replacing him toting […]

Dion Lewis (RB, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In All Leagues OWNED IN: 33% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With LeGarrette Blount suspended and Jonas Gray sent to the waiver wire at the end of the preseason, Lewis looked great in Week 1 against the Steelers, contributing as both a rusher (69 yards) and receiver (51 yards) in his first action since the Eagles […]
