The bye weeks officially begin, although a couple of teams have already taken theirs prematurely due to COVID. Hopefully, no other games are delayed but we know to always be prepared for unexpected changes to the schedule. The waiver wire will be more important in 2020 than any previous season, especially after waivers clear in […]
Full Story »Waiver Wire Express - Week 5 Lightning Round
While Week 4 hasn't yielded as many injuries as Weeks 2 and 3, we're still tracking several relevant names potentially going down and who would step up. Key injuries include: Austin Ekeler (hamstring), Nick Chubb (knee), Noah Fant (ankle), O.J. Howard (Achilles), Tyler Eifert (concussion), and Jordan Akins (concussion). And of course, there are the Covid-related […]
Full Story »Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5
Some of you were forced to contend with significant injuries to your running backs during the matchups of Week 4, while others experienced frustrating output and inconsistent patterns of usage. The sudden bye weeks for Tennessee, and Pittsburgh, also created unexpected challenges for anyone with Derrick Henry, or James Conner. Uncertainty surrounding the status of New […]
Full Story »Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5
Another week is in the books, though not how we expected, with one game postponed until later in the year and Patriots/Chiefs postponed until Monday night. We saw some good wide receiver performances this week, some of which came from unexpected places. We saw two long touchdowns from random Chargers receivers, for example! Who expected […]
Full Story »Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5
The 2020 NFL season has not been easy on fantasy football general managers. If fantasy footballers did not already have enough to contend with between injuries (O.J. Howard, Noah Fant, Jordan Akins) and COVID preventing their players on Pittsburgh and Tennessee from taking the field, here comes the first round of byes! No game for […]
Full Story »Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 5
With week 4 in the books, we have completed a quarter of the NFL season for each team. It has been a wild ride with COVID positive tests and an ever-growing list of injuries, but the waiver wire just keeps on churning. We got to see some explosive passing performances with Dak Prescott throwing for […]
Full Story »Week 4 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!
There were 17 quarterbacks that scored at least 20-fantasy points in Week 4 with Dak Prescott leading the charge. Teddy Bridgewater, Justin Herbert and Sam Darnold were some unfamiliar faces that cracked the top-10 this week, but other than those guys none of the big producers really surprised us. As a whole, tight ends weren't […]
Full Story »Robert Tonyan (TE, GB) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 29% of Leagues ANALYSIS: There is George Kittle, and then there is Robert Tonyan. Or at least that is what the fantasy points leaderboards tell me through Week 4. I'm not surprised at Kittle being the only TE to have played a 40-PPR-point game this season (Week […]
Full Story »Jamaal Williams (RB, GB) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 13% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Nothing has changed in Green Bay's backfield through four weeks of play. Aaron Jones keeps racking up touches, rushing the ball 15+ times a game, and scoring all touchdowns on the ground (4 and counting). What has changed, though, is that the Packers […]
Full Story »Damien Harris (RB, NE) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 31% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Damien Harris started the season stuck in the Injured Reserve and virtually every fantasy GM forgot about him. That, added to the headache that New England's backfield often is (how many players can share that thing!?), kept Harris rostership down to 30%... until […]
Full Story »Keelan Cole (WR, JAX) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 31% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If I know something, it is that the cream always rises to the top. That is why the Jaguars offense will most probably end the season with DJ Chark Jr. leading all of its receivers in PPR points. Although close to that position, […]
Full Story »Darrius Shepherd (WR, GB) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Somehow Green Bay keeps winning games, is 4-0 on the season, and that is considering they have missed WR1 Davante Adams for two games in a row, WR2 Allen Lazard for W4, and operated with basically no other trustworthy weapons on offense other […]
Full Story »Olamide Zaccheaus (WR, ATL) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you were lucky enough to find Zaccheaus in the WW during the past two weeks, congratulations. It is not that it was hard (he's still rostered in just 2% of Yahoo! leagues...), but he definitely merited a chance given Julio Jones' injury […]
Full Story »N'Keal Harry (WR, NE) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 35% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After an injury-derailed rookie season, N'Keal Harry is finally enjoying a full-time playing year as a sophomore. He has already surpassed his receptions, targets, and receiving yards from last season in just over half the games he played a year ago, has one […]
