Under-The-Radar Booms and Busts - Week 2

The opening week of fantasy football gave us surprises like O.J. Howard being the top Tampa Bay tight end instead of Rob Gronkowski, and it gave us things we expected such as DeAndre Hopkins catching every pass in sight and Philip Rivers and Ryan Fitzpatrick throwing multiple interceptions. Now that fantasy managers have a week […]

The 27-year-old was able to get in […]

Re-Shaping NFL Depth Charts with Week 1 Snap Count Data

A common complaint heading into Week 1 was that some NFL teams had posted depth charts that felt a little...off. Some teams didn't have 11 starters. Some had guys who we knew were in for big roles not listed as starters. Things were not clear. After one week of actual play, we have a clearer […]

Mike Gesicki A TE2 Versus Bills

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki could be a huge part of the offense this season. He's expected to play as the slot receiver, which should increase his fantasy value. He was only able to haul in three receptions for 30 yards during the Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots. It won't get […]

Preston Williams Gaining Some Steam

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams failed to capitalize on his chances during the Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots. He hauled in two of his seven targets for 41 yards. DeVante Parker (hamstring) was limited during Wednesday's practice, but is expected to suit up for Week 2 versus the Buffalo Bills. Williams […]

DeVante Parker Limited During Wednesday's Practice

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (hamstring) was limited during Wednesday's practice. He missed the second half of their Week 1 contest against the New England Patriots after aggravating his hamstring. It sounds like Parker is on the right track to play versus the Buffalo Bills in Week 2. However, that's a tough matchup for […]

Week 1 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!

In Week 1, the quarterback position was rather stable as Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson and Kyler Murray finished inside the top-five. Through Sunday's games, Gardner Minshew II finished as QB12 which surprised most, while Dak Prescott and Patrick Mahomes underwhelmed just a little, finishing as QB2's. Tight end was a little […]

Matt Breida Rapidly Losing Value

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida has quickly lost the trust of plenty of fantasy owners after his Week 1 performance versus the New England Patriots. Breida rushed five times for 22 yards in the loss. Jordan Howard received the start and the goal line carries. Myles Gaskin saw nine touches and saw a few […]

Know When to Hold 'Em... Players Who Shouldn't Be on Waivers

Many fantasy players overreact to results from the first week of games, and at varying levels. Some experienced competitors know how to remain patient after such a small sample size. Others are too quick to throw underperforming players onto the free-agent list and then regret such moves later on. You may be thinking of cutting […]

Jordan Howard Hopeful For Bounce-Back Week

Miami Dolphins running back Jordan Howard was unable to get anything going on the ground during their Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots. He rushed eight times for seven yards and one touchdown. He did handle the goal line carries, but Matt Breida and Myles Gaskin were worked into the mix as well. […]

Myles Gaskin Shows Promise In Week 1

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin was surprisingly the best option in the running game for the team during their Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots. Gaskin rushed nine times for 40 yards and hauled in all four of his targets for 26 yards. The running back committee in Miami is horrendous. Both […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick A Risky Option Versus Bills

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick had a horrendous start to the 2020 campaign versus the New England Patriots in Week 1. He completed 20 of 30 passes for 191 yards and three interceptions. Despite that, head coach Brian Flores confirmed that Fitzpatrick will start during their Week 2 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The team […]

In the interest of getting you the most timely information for your title matchups, consider […]

Clearing Up Confusing Running Back Committees

Running back committees could be the most frustrating aspect of football for fantasy managers. For tailbacks to be viable in fantasy, they have to receive a steady amount of carries and targets. Sadly, many head coaches play games with their backfields, leaving fans pulling out their hair. Entering this season, this issue was even more […]

Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

It was satisfying enough to see a full slate of regular-season NFL games being played on Sunday.

Preston Williams (WR, MIA) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 38% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Some fantasy GMs will check the Week 1 fantasy-point leaderboard and deem Williams as a bust and not worth waiver wire addition. And they will be super wrong with that approach. Don't be that guy, please. First of all, Miami faced New England […]

Mike Gesicki Quiet Against New England

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki was expected to be a big time option for the team this season. However, he was unable to get much going during the Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots. He hauled in three receptions for 30 yards, which is not what anyone wanted from him. There is […]

Preston Williams Shut Down By Patriots

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams was unable to get anything going during the Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots. He was guarded by Stephon Gilmore, so there was really no chance of Williams doing anything productive. He hauled in two of his seven targets for 41 yards. DeVante Parker (hamstring) could sit […]
