Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 8

Fantasy GMs are to be commended for rising to the unique challenges that have unfolded during this regular season. Injuries to critical players is an unwelcome reality that occurs every year. This is also the case for backs that were expected to operate as RB1s, but have been relegated to committees. However, this season has […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 8

An exciting early slate of football on Sunday, wasn't it? Multiple games coming down to the wire, though we then had a pretty boring second slate. But whatever -- you aren't here to read my thoughts on the games. You're here to figure out what wide receivers to add as we get ready for Week […]

The Cut List (Week 8) - Time to Let Go?

A handful of high-profile inactives opened the door for some bench stashes and waiver adds to find their way into starting fantasy lineups in Week 7. In the Week 8 edition of the Cut List, we'll spend some time breaking down which of those fill-ins are worth keeping around after seeing what they did or […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 8 Lightning Round

Week 7 saw us skirt further COVID-19 postponements with big performances across the league. Key injuries included Odell Beckham Jr., Diontae Johnson, Deebo Samuel, Jeff Wilson Jr., Phillip Lindsay, N'Keal Harry, Breshad Perriman, Tim Patrick, and Andy Dalton. And then both Chris Carson and Kenyan Drake left SNF with injuries. Week 8 byes are Arizona, […]

Jakobi Meyers Shows Promise In Week 7

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers had one reception on the season heading into the Week 7 matchup with the San Francisco 49ers. He surprisingly saw some action during the blowout loss here. N'Keal Harry (head) was forced to exit early, which opened up playing time for Meyers. He hauled in four of his […]

Damiere Byrd Has Another Disappointing Game

New England Patriots wide receiver Damiere Byrd is a few weeks removed from a game where he saw 10 targets versus the Kansas City Chiefs. Sadly, Byrd hasn't been involved too much since then. He hauled in one of his two targets for 16 yards in the Week 7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. […]

N'Keal Harry Knocked Out Early Versus 49ers

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry (head) was forced to exit early during the Week 7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He hauled in one of his two targets for six yards before leaving because of a head injury. Harry has not shown much upside even when he is on the field. He […]

Julian Edelman Continues Downward Spiral

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman hasn't been able to do much of anything on the field since Week 2. His performances are becoming laughable at this point in the season. He finished with one reception on three targets for 13 yards in the Week 7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The Pats […]

James White Barely Involved In Week 7

New England Patriots running back James White has been a decent PPR flex option this season, but he was a forgotten man during the Week 7 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers. It's unclear why White barely saw the field during this one with the team behind multiple scores throughout. He finished with one […]

Rex Burkhead Finishes With Three Receptions

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead hasn't seen a heavy workload lately, and that is unlikely going to change. He rushed four times for 12 yards and hauled in three receptions for 35 yards in the Week 7 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers. It appears that Burkhead and James White are going […]

Damien Harris Sees 10 Carries In Loss

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris has become the lead back for this offense, but he hasn't been able to do much damage lately. He rushed 10 times for 58 yards in the Week 7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He also hauled in one reception for 12 yards but was unable to […]

Jarrett Stidham Looks Uncomfortable In Week 7

New England Patriots quarterback Jarrett Stidham saw some repetitions during the second half of the Week 7 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Quarterback Cam Newton was benched after a three-interception performance late in the game. Sadly, it didn't get much better once Stidham took over under center. He completed six of 10 passing […]

Cam Newton Benched Against 49ers

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton looked horrendous during the Week 7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He completed nine of 15 passing attempts for 98 yards and zero touchdowns with three interceptions. He also rushed five times for 19 yards before being benched in the second half. To be fair, Jarrett Stidham didn't […]

Cam Newton To Remain Patriots Starting Quarterback

Following the team's ugly 33-6 loss in Week 7, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick was adamant that Cam Newton would remain the team's starting quarterback. Newton was benched in the second half of the team's Week 7 game against the San Francisco 49ers after throwing three interceptions and completing just nine passes for […]

Cam Newton Benched, Jarrett Stidham Takes Over

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton has been removed from the game, and has been replaced by Jarrett Stidham. With the Patriots down 30-6, and Newton having a rough game including three interceptions and a 39.7 passer rating. Bill Belichick decided to bench Newton and make the switch. The San Francisco 49ers were dominating the […]

N'Keal Harry Heads To The Locker Room

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry (head) was taken to the locker room in the first quarter of the team's Week 7 game against the San Francisco 49ers. Harry took a hard hit from 49ers safety Tarvarius Moore on an incomplete pass and was helped off the field. He had one catch for six […]

Julian Edelman Active In Week 7

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (knee) had been limited at practice this week while dealing with a knee injury. However, he is officially active for the team's Week 7 game against the San Francisco 49ers. Edelman has struggled lately, with just seven catches over his past three games. He's tough to trust for […]

Damiere Byrd Might Hold Deep League Value
