Is Zero RB Actually Working in 2017?
Zero RB truthers (that’s me) - this article is for you. Did you do the right thing by sticking to your guns after a rough go in 2016? If you were savvy/lucky enough to select the right WRs in the first 4-5 rounds (Antonio Brown, Tyreek Hill, DeAndre Hopkins, Brandin Cooks, Michael Crabtree, Larry Fitzgerald, […]

Press Rewind - A Mock Football Re-Draft at Midseason
One of my favorite things to do at the end of the fantasy season is to look back at all the things I said in August and September. I write a little draft recap for a couple of my leagues and do weekly power rankings. It's fun to see the differences between what I thought then, […]

Dynasty Fallout - Jimmy Garoppolo Traded to San Francisco
For the last two offseasons, one name that was mentioned more than anyone else as a potential "QB of the future" was Jimmy Garoppolo. After being drafted in the second round of the 2014 draft, it appeared the New England Patriots had found their QB to replace Tom Brady when father time finally caught up. […]

Fantasy Football Buy Low and Sell High: Week 9
One half of the fantasy football season down, one half to go! For fantasy leagues that make Week 17 of the NFL schedule irrelevant, because too many star players sit out due to their games being meaningless, we are officially at the halfway point of the season. The trade deadline in many fantasy leagues might […]

Target Risers and Potential Breakouts Week 10
After an absolute whirlwind of a news cycle heading into Week 9, it was good to get some football tape to evaluate. We didn’t get a look at Kelvin Benjamin in his new home in Buffalo just yet, but we did get a glimpse of what the Panthers would look like without him. We also […]

#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers Week 9
I want to tell you everything I am thinking right now. I want to lay it all on the line and be an open book. It has been eating at me. When the time is right, I’ll tell you everything, but I just can’t yet. Yes, it’s a metaphor, but it’s also a common place […]

As we move into Week 9 of the fantasy football season, six teams are on bye. Fantasy owners may be looking for replacements in their lineups, and start/sit decisions are more important than ever. These are the weeks where fantasy leagues will define the contenders and pretenders, so let's make sure your optimal lineups are […]

Fantasy Football Risers & Fallers: Week 9
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. […]

Disaster Recovery from Week 8 - Studs Turned Duds
Welcome to Disaster Recovery, where each week I'll examine why your studs played like duds. This isn't a place to find out why you should have benched a player for somebody on your bench. Disaster Recovery is to examine the guys who you didn't think twice about benching, and deciding if you should be panicking at all […]

Waiver Wire Rankings for Week 9
Wow, what a trade deadline. What started off as a relatively slow week on the waiver wire, is turning into a rather explosive one. Let's not forget, there are also a lot of teams with viable fantasy players on bye. The need for streaming players, or adding depth to your team, may be higher than […]

Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
There was less football on the whole this weekend, as six teams took a break. We had another ugly London game, a surprise shootout in Seattle and a couple of nail-biters. We also witnessed the continued ascension of some rookies to possible NFL stardom in the form of Deshaun Watson and Juju Smith-Schuster. Things are […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week Nine Lightning Round
It's been a fun week of NFL action, with plenty of high-scoring players that are available in plenty of leagues.

This is your waiver wire lightning round, looking towards Week 9 waiver […]

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 9)
As the season wears on, this list will feature more name brand players that you may have trouble letting go. Peyton Manning owners remember all too well how a big name can derail an entire season if you refuse to accept that he simply no longer has value. The names on this list no longer […]

Running Backs Waiver Wire - Week 9 Pickups and Adds
This might be the worst week for RB waivers yet. Another six teams will be on bye in Week 9 and thankfully there weren't any major injuries to create job openings. At this point, you are chasing upside, filling holes in your lineup, or stashing players for future weeks. As usual, this article will aim […]

Deeper Sleepers for Standard Leagues (Week 9)
As I write this, it is Monday evening and I am trying not to fall asleep after only getting about five hours of sleep last night--and after being awake all of yesterday. I don't miss NFL football unless I have to, so I woke up for the Browns/Vikings London game and watched the first half […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Week 8 Fantasy Football Picks
Rather than reciting some of my greatest hits and misses from last week (let's just assume they were all hits and move on), I have a commentary on the fantasy football community as a whole. While it goes without saying that we all love football and especially the fantasy aspect of it, I could easily […]

Fantasy Football Consistency Report for Week 8: Floors and Ceilings
It’s crazy to think we are already halfway through the NFL regular season. Now is the start of one of the busiest times of the year for fantasy owners as they ready themselves for championship runs, playoff pushes, or already moving on to 2018. For those of you in the hunt for a playoff spot […]

Doubling Down on All-RB Bench in Week 8
Consider this article like the movie Paranormal Activity or the second season of Mr. Robot. There’s going to be a lot of build-up until you die or wake up in prison. If you really want to jump the gun because you don’t have the time to read my article (you’re a busy and important fantasy […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 8
Just because a half-dozen teams have a bye this week does not mean there will be fewer under-the-radar booms and busts. Six teams have the week off, so the pool of boom and bust candidates is a little shallower than usual. My column will not be any shorter, though, fantasy folks. There are still plenty […]

Fantasy Pop Quiz - Lineup Questions for Week 8
As all one or two of the people who read my column realized last week, I was actually off. We were putting together the finishing touches on our wedding, which was Sunday. I don't think it's a day I'll ever forget; 78 degrees right about the time we said our vows, really delicious BBQ for […]

Week 8 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus
As badly as my running back picks from last week went (Latavius Murray, really?), I'd like to think my in-depth analysis on Kenny Stills made up for it if you put him in your lineup. With six teams on bye this week, it's more important than ever to sift through the waiver wire and pick […]

Beating The Waiver Wire - Speculative Stashes for Week 9
It's Wednesday morning. You dropped a player last night expecting to make some moves on the waiver wire, only to wake up and find out you weren't able to get anyone you put a claim in for. What now? If you've got an open roster spot, its always a good idea to plan ahead for […]

Say Goodbye to "Your Guys" - Trade to Win in Week 8
Trading is hard. People looooove their guys and love big names. The tendency is for us to evaluate players based on potential over reality. “Wait, you want to trade who for LeSean McCoy? He was the RB4 last year!” “Julio is still a target monster and will finish with eight TD!” Other common responses include […]

Fantasy Football Buy Low and Sell High: Week 8
Seven weeks down. Do you know if your fantasy football team is a contender or a pretender yet? We are almost at the halfway point of the NFL season.
