Matt Bryant To Practice Thursday

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) will kick in practice on Thursday. Bryant hasn't been active in a game since Oct. 14, but he's made all nine of his field goals and 16 of 17 extra points this year. When healthy, the 43-year-old is one of the better fantasy options. If he can't go again […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 11

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 11 Lightning Round

In case anyone felt in control after a chalky Week 9, the NFL brought a swift reminder of its chaos in Week 10. Among the low-owned studs and high-owned duds were a couple notable injuries, with Cooper Kupp's knee being the biggest (as of Sunday Night Football). We here at RotoBaller are here to get […]

Deion Jones Comes Off IR

The Atlanta Falcons activated linebacker Deion Jones (foot) off of the Injured Reserve on Monday and waived offensive tackle Rees Odhiambo in a corresponding move. Jones fractured his foot in the season opener but will return to face the Cowboys in Week 11. As one of the best linebackers in the NFL, you should add […]

Atlanta Falcons Defense Struggles Sunday

The Atlanta Falcons defense had a tough day against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. In terms of points surrendered it was not a horrific day for the defense. However, they failed to really stress Baker Mayfield, who at one stage was 12-for-12 on the day with the game in the third quarter. The Falcons defense […]

Giorgio Tavecchio Has Quiet Day In Cleveland

Atlanta Falcons kicker Giorgio Tavecchio had a relatively disappointing game against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Tavecchio can be satisfied in his performance, as he once again did exactly what was asked of him, converting an extra point and a relatively short field goal. However, for his fantasy owners Tavecchio will have returned a poor […]

Austin Hooper Has A Good Performance In Cleveland

Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper had an impressive performance against the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. Hooper was targeted a team high 11 times in this game and he pulled in 10 of them for 56 yards and a touchdown. Hooper has been extremely reliable this season, catching 46 of his 55 targets, providing […]

Julio Jones Has Another Big Day In Week 10

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones continued his good season against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. After finding the end zone last week to break his season duck, Jones managed it once again against the Browns. Jones also added seven receptions for 107 yards on 11 targets, ensuring he would not disappoint his fantasy owners. […]

Ito Smith Has Ugly Day Sunday

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith had a day to forget against the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. After averaging six yards per carry last week against the Redskins, Smith went right back to averaging less than three yards per carry this week. The flow of the game meant that Smith did not see many […]

Tevin Coleman Struggles Once Again Sunday

Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman failed to build on his Week 9 performance when facing the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. On Sunday, Coleman had 44 rushing yards on 11 carries, adding three receptions for 18 yards on five targets. Coleman's average was not bad but the way this game went for the Falcons […]

Matt Ryan Has Decent Fantasy Output

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan managed to have a decent fantasy day despite the Falcons struggling on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. The Falcons managed to put up just 16 points and were chasing the game for much of the day. However, Ryan went 38-of-52 for 330 yards and two touchdowns to at least salvage […]

Mohamed Sanu Depending On A Touchdown Sunday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu looks like he is finally healthy after recently playing through a hip injury. Sanu draws a matchup against a vulnerable Browns defense this Sunday, ranked towards the bottom of the league against the pass.

Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 10 Fantasy Football Picks

The playoffs are coming... but not yet. With all the talk of trade deadlines and ROS prep, we should keep one thing in mind - you have to get there first. I've seen teams sell high and buy low right out of contention because they forgot to actually win games in the process of preparing […]

Giorgio Tavecchio A Solid Play On Sunday

Atlanta Falcons kicker Giorgio Tavecchio will once again be kicking for the Falcons against the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. Tavecchio will continue to kick for the Falcons as Matt Bryant recovers from his hamstring injury. With a high flying offense the floor is solid for Tavecchio, who should at least get the opportunity to […]

Atlanta Falcons Defense Could Have Success In Week 10

The Atlanta Falcons defense has a chance to be fantasy relevant in Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns. The Falcons defense has been unable to make the big play this year and that has limited their ability to rack up fantasy points. However, this week they are facing a team who have had turnover trouble. […]

Austin Hooper A Borderline Play In Week 10

Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper will be hoping to bounce back from a couple of tough weeks when he faces the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. In the last two weeks Hooper has averaged just 44.5 yards and three receptions, also failing to find the end zone. However, the previous two matchups have been […]

Julio Jones Remains A Must-Start In Week 10

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones will be looking to backup a superb outing when he faces the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. Jones had 121 receiving yards as he went 7-of-10 against the Washington Redskins. However, more importantly than anything Jones finally managed to find the end zone for the first time this season. […]

Ito Smith A Potential Flex Option In Week 10

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith has the opportunity to be a flex play for fantasy owners against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Smith had a solid outing last week against the Washington Redskins with 10 carries for 60 yards and a touchdown. He added four yards as he caught one of his two targets. […]

Tevin Coleman Could Have Another Good Day In Week 10

Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman could be in line to put up a second straight good performance in Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns. In Week 9 against the Washington Redskins, Coleman rushed for 88 yards on 13 carries. He also added 68 receiving yards on five receptions, from seven targets with two touchdowns. […]

Matt Ryan Set For Big Day In Cleveland

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan should have the chance to put up good numbers on Sunday when facing the Cleveland Browns.
