Week 4 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

As you've probably figured out already, fantasy football is a roller coaster ride. It's give and take. It's one step forward, two steps backwards most of the time. No game in Week 3 encapsulates this more than Bucs-Giants. Tampa's stud wideout Mike Evans had six catches for 89 scoreless yards through two weeks. Then he […]

NFL DFS Prop Picks for 9/29/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

Heading into Week Four of the NFL season, trends are starting to emerge. New stars are starting to make their mark.

It’s a long season and unexpected things can happen, but there are some players who have established what […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 4) - Targets and Avoids

Through three weeks of the season, it sure looks like we'll see a Patriots-Chiefs AFC Championship rematch. Both of those teams look unstoppable. My one qualm with New England is they've yet to face a formidable opponent. The combined record of New England's opponents is 0-9. Now they get a real test on the road […]

Julian Edelman Expected To Play Sunday

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) is making the trip to Buffalo and is expected to play in Week 4 against the Bills. Edelman was limited in practice all week, but the question remains how effective he can be at less than 100 percent against a very strong defense on the road. Edelman's […]

Pass Rush vs QB Matchups to Watch - Week 4

In Week 4, there are some great matchups for quarterbacks. several players are getting good defenses against them, but they are playing them at home where life is a little easier.

Rex Burkhead's Iffy Status Hurts Week 4 Value

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (foot) will head into Week 4 questionable to play against the Bills. Burkhead is off to solid start, posting 222 yards from scrimmage through the first three games. It's a shame that an injury could derail his strong start as the team prepares to face a Bills Defense […]

Phillip Dorsett Has Low-Level PPR Value Against Bills

New England Patriots wide receiver Phillip Dorsett could be in line for extra snaps this week but will have a tough matchup against an improved Bills Defense. Dorsett has posted 187 yards with three touchdowns through the first three games. He could see even more time if teammate Julian Edelman is restricted with a chest […]

Patriots Defense Should Thrive Against Bills

The New England Patriots Defense has been nothing short of fantastic through the first three games. The unit still has not allowed an offensive touchdown, the only two touchdowns allowed coming from a special teams turnover and a pick-six thrown by backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham. The Bills offense may be full of young talent but […]

Hard To Trust Sony Michel In Week 4

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel is looking to bounce back heading into Week 4 after racking up only 11 yards on nine carries last week against the Jets.

Week 4 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis

Nothing like saving the worst game of the week for last. In another forgettable matchup of winless teams, the Cincinnati Bengals travel to Pittsburgh to take on the almost as bad Steelers and Mason Rudolph. If I were ESPN at this point, I would be asking for a refund from the NFL. Or at least a […]

James White Could Be X-Factor For Patriots In Week 4

New England Patriots running back James White could emerge as an integral offensive threat this Sunday against the Bills. After a career season, it has been a quiet start for the veteran runner. But with Rex Burkhead nursing a foot injury, Sony Michel's ineffectiveness and facing a talented Bills Defense could turn things in White's […]

Josh Gordon Should See Plenty Of Targets Against Bills

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon's bumpy start to the season could get a boost when the team plays the 3-0 Bills on Sunday. The Bills Defense is allowing the fifth fewest fantasy points to opposing receivers in this first month of the season, but the Patriots have a knack for bucking trends. New […]

Julian Edelman A Dicey Play In Week 4

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) was able to participate in every practice this week heading into the team's Week 4 duel against the 3-0 Bills. The Patriots offense will need the reliable Edelman going up against a Bills secondary that is allowing the fifth fewest fantasy points to opposing receivers through three […]

Tom Brady Has Stiff Matchup Against Bills

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will have plenty of challenges to overcome in order to post top-10 fantasy numbers this week against the Bills. Brady has been limited in practice all week with a calf injury, joining teammates Rex Burkhead and Julian Edelman also on the injury report. These developments coupled with playing a […]

Julian Edelman, Rex Burkhead Questionable

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) and running back Rex Burkhead (foot) are both listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Bills. Both players are trending in the right direction for the tough matchup with Buffalo's defense. Even on the road against the Bills, Edelman is a low-end WR2, at worst, if […]

Julian Edelman Not A Lock To Face Bills

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) isn't a lock to play in Week 4 against the Bills, but he's trending in the right direction, according to a source.

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 4

Week 3 was an exciting one, with big injuries, big comebacks, and big debuts. Also, another blowout loss by the Miami Dolphins as they continue the unprecedented Great Tanking of 2019.

Five Ways to Replace Saquon Barkley

After being drafted as the number one pick in so many fantasy football leagues, there really isn't anything more depressing than seeing Saquon Barkley on the sideline in a walking boot and crutches. After being held by the Tampa Bay defense to just 10 yards on eight carries, it was tough to see Barkley come […]

Tom Brady, Rex Burkhead Limited Wednesday

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (calf) and running back Rex Burkhead (foot) were both listed as limited in practice on Wednesday. Brady was on the injury report last week as well and wasn't in danger of missing the game at all. That should once again be the case in Week 4 against the Bills, […]

Julian Edelman At Practice Wednesday

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest, ribs) is at the media portion of practice on Wednesday. He'll likely be listed as limited on the final report. Edelman had a scare last weekend, but it looks like he'll be fine to play in Week 4 on the road against the 3-0 Bills. With Antonio […]
