Falcons Defense Should Remain On Benches

The Atlanta Falcons defense should remain benched this week against Washington. Though rather inexperienced QB Taylor Heinicke will be coming to town this week, this defense has done nothing to inspire fantasy managers as the team allowed 32 and 48 points in the first two weeks. Though the unit clamped down on the Giants last […]

Kyle Pitts A TE1 In Week 4

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts is a TE1 option this week. The TE had a modest showing last week with two receptions for 35 yards on three targets but has done well this season overall. In the first two weeks, the rookie saw at least six targets each week. Pitts may not post flashy […]

Olamide Zaccheaus A Deep-League Flex Option

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus is only a deep-league flex play, at best, in Week 4 against the Washington Football Team. The 24-year-old has posted 32 and 22 yards in two games thus far this season and his role hasn't escalated in any way despite the lack of solid pass-catchers on Atlanta. Nevertheless, No. […]

Calvin Ridley A WR1 Against Washington

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley is a WR1 against the Washington Football Team in Week 4. Ridley hasn't posted mind-boggling numbers this season (no more than 63 yards in a contest) but what's impressive has been his target share. He has seen at least 10 targets in two of three games and that should […]

Cordarrelle Patterson A Solid Flex Option In Week 4

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson is a flex option in Week 4. Patterson's role has been that of a dual-player as he has thrived in the rushing and receiving game this season. Last week, he notably posted six receptions for 82 yards on seven targets while also adding seven carries for 20 yards. With […]

Mike Davis An RB3 In Week 4

Atlanta Falcons running back Mike Davis is an RB3 option in Week 4 against Washington. The back hasn't been as impressive this season as the RB1, posting no more than 50 rushing yards or 25 receiving yards in any contest. However, he has seen at least 12 carries in two of three games which indicates […]

Matt Ryan A Low-End QB2 Against Washington

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan is only a low-end QB2 against Washington this week. The QB hasn't been as explosive this year as in years past and has only posted 300 yards in one of three games. He also has four touchdowns to three picks on the season. With a general lack of weapons aside […]

Russell Gage Doesn't Practice On Thursday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage (ankle) didn't practice on Thursday.

Re-Drafting 2021: What Changes Would We Make?

It's three weeks into the season, so we've started to notice some trends that have emerged. Some players have more usage than we expected. Some offenses are playing at a faster pace.

Surprise Fantasy Football Studs, Duds - Something or Nothing?

Week 3 of the NFL season is now in the books and while we saw many familiar names register top-fantasy performances there were a few surprises. The quarterback position was fairly stable with Josh Allen coming in as QB-1 on the week off a four-touchdown performance. Justin Herbert had his own four-touchdown game against the […]

Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

We had a clear frontrunner for top waiver priority and FAB burner this week before Sunday even began. Christian McCaffrey is expected to miss time with a hamstring injury suffered Thursday night, which means rookie Chuba Hubbard will be added everywhere by frustrated C-Mac stakeholders or sniped by others looking to spite their league mates. […]

Miami Dolphins (DEF, MIA) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Dolphins are tied for 3rd in the NFL in turnovers and are 9th in defensive drives that end in an offensive turnover, which is good when you face a hobbled Carson Wentz. The Indianapolis Colts also just saw their best lineman, Quentin […]

Washington Football Team (DEF, WAS) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 68% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is a gut call, and it may blow up in my face, but I refuse to believe the Washington defense is this bad. They're 30th in my own rankings so everything is telling me that they are, but I just saw […]
