DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 4): NFL DFS Lineups

Now is the time to start really cashing in on DFS games. Three weeks is enough of a sample size for us to have a feel about offenses and defenses alike. We know which teams can be attacked which way and which players are likely to be doing the attacking. There are a number of […]

Mike Gesicki A Solid Option In Week 4

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki should see a large increase in snaps this weekend now that tight end A.J. Derby has been officially ruled out. Gesicki saw an increase in targets and catches last week and that trend should continue this week as he and rookie Durham Smythe are the only two tight ends […]

A.J. Derby Ruled Out For Week 4

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot) has been ruled out of Sunday's matchup against the New England Patriots. Derby hurt his foot during Week 3 against the Oakland Raiders and hasn't been able to practice all week. The Dolphins have not released any long-term news about the injury. Derby's absence means that tight end […]

Kenny Stills In WR2/3 Territory For Week 4

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills is on the WR2/3 border in Week 4 against the Patriots. New England has allowed the tenth most fantasy points to wide receivers thus far and the Patriots at -6.5 point favorites, meaning Miami should be throwing often in this game. Stills is a boom-or-bust type of player, who […]

Frank Gore A Low-End Flex Option In Week 4

Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore is nothing more than a desperation flex in Week 4 against the Patriots. New England has allowed the second most rushing yards in the league, but Gore has been atrocious on the ground the last two weeks. Between Week 2 and Week 3 Gore had 15 carries for 37 […]

Ryan Tannehill A QB2 Option In Week 4

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is a middling option in Week 4 against the Patriots. New England has allowed the twelfth most passing yards in the NFL thus far, an average of 263 yards per game. New England's secondary was absolutely decimated in Week 2 by Blake Bortles of all quarterbacks, but otherwise look improved […]

Wide Receiver Depth Chart Analysis: Week 4

We're back for the Week 4 wide receiver depth chart analysis. While this isn't the sexiest article out there, it's important. For example, Tyler Boyd was a great play last week, and his snap counts in comparison to John Ross indicated that could be the case. This week, some of the more interesting options based […]

Stop The Slander and Buy Patriots

After another slow start in New England--specifically Tom Brady--people are saying the end is near. Stop The Slander! Buy up all the Patriots shares you can get, because the fantasy point train may be a bit delayed, but it is on its way. How many years of consistent productivity do you need? What assurances do […]

Death of the Workhorse RB

In a time, not too long ago, defense was king of the NFL. Pulverizing hits weren't just legal, they were glamorized. The rules of the game itself were slightly slanted in favor of those on the defensive side of the ball, and in order to find success, teams were forced to wear down the opposition […]

Kenyan Drake A Solid RB Option

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake is a solid option in Week 4 against the weak New England Patriots defense. The Patriots defense has allowed an average of 406 yard per game this season and coach Adam Gase will certainly want to exploit that with the talented Drake. Drake is coming off of a very […]

Danny Amendola A Low-End Play Again

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola returns back to Foxboro this weekend to play against the New England Patriots, the team he has won two Super Bowls with. Amendola's numbers over the first three games have been almost identical- three to four catches for 20 to 40 yards. It is very reasonable to believe that […]

Ryan Tannehill On Week 4 Injury Report

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (shoulder) practiced in full on Wednesday. Tannehill's injury shouldn't prevent him from playing in Week 4 against the Patriots. He has yet to go over 300 yards passing in three weeks, but Tannehill has been efficient (73 completion percentage) and has seven touchdowns and only two picks in 74 attempts. […]

Reshad Jones Limited Wednesday

Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones (shoulder) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Jones was inactive in Week 3 against the Raiders, but he has a chance to return against the division-rival Patriots this Sunday. Miami will need Jones back in action in order to slow down quarterback Tom Brady and the passing game with receiver […]

Cameron Wake, Andre Branch Miss Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins defensive ends Cameron Wake (knee) and Andre Branch (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. It's not a good sign after the team lost pass-rusher William Hayes for the season last weekend. The Dolphins will need to get as much pressure as possible on Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in order to have a shot […]

A.J. Derby Not Practicing Wednesday

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot) is not practicing on Wednesday after injuring his foot in Week 3 against the Raiders. It's not a good sign for his availability this weekend against the Patriots. Derby has just two catches on three targets for 35 yards and a touchdown through two weeks, so he hasn't […]

Tape Don't Lie - Breaking Down Jordy Nelson's Week 3 Performance

For this week's "Tape Don't Lie," choosing a player to analyze was pretty difficult. There was a rookie wide receiver who caught three touchdowns, but there was also a veteran wide receiver who hauled in six catches for 173 yards and a touchdown, which seemed to come out of thin air after two sub-par games […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 4

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. […]

Warning Signals - RB / WR / TE

Every year, certain players are highly drafted in drafts by fantasy owners due to the belief that they will vastly outperform expectations throughout the season. Oftentimes, these players carry a significant amount of hype due to breakout potential, elite status, or lack of alternative options on their teams. However, with every player that does meet […]

FAAB Bidding - Week 4 NFL Waiver Wire Targets

As an addendum to our famous Waiver Wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, in this column we also present suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB). As a caveat, these prices do not by any means indicate how much […]

Tanner McEvoy Waived By Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins waived wide receiver Tanner McEvoy on Tuesday, according to a source. McEvoy didn't record a single reception with the Dolphins. He can go on being ignored in all fantasy leagues.

Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions

We know nothing. When I say "we," I am referring collectively to all of us who follow the NFL and play fantasy football on a regular basis of course. We were certain the Vikings-Bills game would be a blowout... but not in Buffalo's favor. The Patriots weren't going to let former assistant coach Matt Patricia […]

Week 4 Wide Receivers - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Week 3 was a grueling reminder to fantasy footballer owners of how tough it can be to play this game. You spend all off-season studying up on your favorite players, you draft well and then you are hit with injury after injury, leaving your team depleted and unproductive. There were many talented players who sat […]

Deeper Sleepers Heading Into Week 4

While it wasn't the prototypical "oh my god we're all gonna die" week for fantasy injuries, there were enough scares this week to make us hold our breath more than we would have liked. The big loss coming out of Week 3 was that of Jimmy Garoppolo tearing his ACL. An absolute brutal blow to […]

Marlon Mack (RB, IND) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 35% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack was inactive Sunday against Philadelphia due to a nagging hamstring injury. Despite this, he is still worth grabbing in leagues given the fact that Indianapolis is devoid of talent in the backfield. As long as Mack can […]

Andre Branch Likely To Miss A Few Weeks With Knee Injury

Miami Dolphins defensive end Andre Branch (knee) will most likely miss a couple weeks after he suffered a knee injury on Sunday against the Oakland Raiders. Along with William Hayes having a season-ending injury after tearing his ACL, the Miami Dolphins defense has taken some serious hits at the defensive end position. The Miami defense […]
