Snap Count and Usage Analysis for Week 11

Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production, but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill set. A running […]

Cordarrelle Patterson Will Be A Game-Time Decision

Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith said that running back Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Thursday night's game against the New England Patriots.

Thursday Night Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Patriots vs Falcons

I think it’s time we accept that this is no ordinary NFL season. With multiple upsets over the last few weeks, it seems that no one is safe in the NFL. Regardless of a team being double-digit point favorites, the world has a way of turning upside-down on Sundays.  Last week started with an upset […]

Michael Florio's Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 11: D'Onta Foreman, Wayne Gallman, Bryan Edwards

Hopefully Week 10 was kinder to you and your fantasy lineups after the abomination that was Week 9. I especially hope that because it's not a great waiver week. It's a week where if the right player or two are out there on waivers you can make a big splash - but outside of that […]
