Saquon Barkley Looking To Keep Rolling
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley will look to keep his momentum from the Dolphins win when the Giants take on the Redskins on Sunday. Washington ranks 26th in PPR points allowed to running backs, and Saquon looked explosive again last week, with some jump cuts and change of direction that we hadn't seen […]
Daniel Jones Set To Return In Solid Streaming Spot
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle) will return from a two-week absence to take on the Redskins on Sunday. Even though Evan Engram (foot) is on the IR, Jones will have a solid cast of weapons to throw to against a defense that ranks 20th against the pass. The game currently has an over/under […]

Rhett Ellison Downgraded To Limited
New York Giants tight end Rhett Ellison (concussion) was downgraded to a limited practice on Thursday after practicing in full on Wednesday. It's something worth watching entering Week 16 against the Redskins. The 31-year-old hasn't played since Nov. 10 due to his head injury, but he'll leapfrog rookie Kaden Smith as the primary pass-catching tight […]
NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 16) - Targets and Avoids
The Atlanta Falcons delivered the biggest blow in Week 15 to whatever remains of survivor pools with a last-second win against the 49ers as 10-point road dogs. Just more than six percent of entrants took the Niners on Run Your Pool's site-wide distribution pick. That's because San Fran was the sixth-most selected team. There was only […]
Benching Star Players? Don't Dance With Who Brung Ya
The common adage is to "start your studs" or, in more folksy terms, "dance with the one who brung ya." The common thought between it all is simply that certain guys on your team have been solid for you all year and gotten you into the finals or 3rd place game, where you're playing for […]
Evan Engram To Have Surgery Friday
New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (foot) said he'll have surgery on Friday for a partial Lisfranc injury. Dr. Robert Anderson will perform the surgery. Engram said he'll be "more than ready" for training camp next summer. The 25-year-old managed to play in just eight games in 2019, thoroughly disappointing his fantasy owners at […]
Daniel Jones On Track To Start Sunday
New York Giants rookie quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle) was working with the first-team offense again on Wednesday and is on track to return as the starting signal-caller for Week 16 against the Redskins. The 22-year-old missed the last two games with a mild high ankle sprain, but he'll be back under center to close out […]

The Tape Tells All - Breshad Perriman Fantasy Outlook
Welcome to another edition of "The Tape Tells All," where I break down some film of an NFL's player performance and try to draw some fantasy football conclusions from that film. Just kidding. I'm currently visiting my wife's family and the Internet access I have is pretty old school, as in "I can not actually […]
Evan Engram Sent To IR
New York Giants tight end Evan Engram's season has come to an end after the team sent him to the IR with a foot sprain. It's a crushing blow as injuries have continued to plague the talented tight end. After playing in 15 games his rookie year, he missed five games last year and will […]
Week 16 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
Kenyan Drake, Mike Boone, Breshad Perriman, Anthony Miller, Ryan Tannehill, and Tyler Higbee were all freely available on waivers at some point this season, if not last week. These are the type of players that become unexpected league-winners and this is why you never stop playing the wire up until the curtain is drawn on […]
Week 15 Surprises? We Must Overreact Immediately!
In Week 15, the quarterback position fell according to plan for the most part. Lamar Jackson threw for five touchdown passes against a soft Jets pass defense finishing as the No. 1 quarterback on the week, while Jameis Winston was able to play with a broken thumb to finish as the No. 2 quarterback on […]
Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 16
Winning a fantasy championship has been your goal since the onset of preparations for your draft. It has also remained the primary objective in every roster decision that you have made throughout the regular season. Regardless of who you have been competing against, or how the scoring in your league has been constructed, the desire […]

It's championship week, and if you're looking for quarterback streamers things have either gone horribly right or horribly wrong for your squad heading into the title game. Whichever it is, we've got some strong options to help bring home the ship. Maybe you're looking for a streamer because your regular starter has a tough matchup. […]
The Fantasy Football Guide to College Bowl Season
It's time for the best -- or, if you think 300-something games is too many, the worst -- part of the football season: Bowl games. This year, we've got 40 bowl games in total. That's a lot of games to sit through, especially if you're not a big college football fan, so let's give y'all, […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 16 Lightning Round
After injuries destroyed many a playoff hope in Week 14, we saw some heroes rise from the ashes to guide us through Week 15. Still, injuries to Dalvin Cook, Chris Godwin and others would keep the medical industry afloat as the season winds down. There's no shortage of waiver action heading into the traditional FF […]
Monday Night Fantasy Football Starts/Sits - Week 15
The Saints are coming off a hard-fought loss to the 49ers. It was an amazing game that featured no defense whatsoever. On the other hand, the Colts' best player in their loss was second-year linebacker Darius Leonard. This game should be different. Not only is the New Orleans defense going to show up, this means the […]
Aldrick Rosas Has Another Game Without a Field Goal
New York Giants kicker Aldrick Rosas was quiet again on Sunday despite the Giants scoring 36 points. The former Pro Bowler connected on four of his five extra points and didn't attempt a field goal. He's off the streaming radar next week.
Giants Defense Solid In Win Over Dolphins
The New York Giants Defense held the Dolphins to 20 points on Sunday, notched three sacks, recovered a fumble and recorded a safety. They were also unable to intercept Ryan Fitzpatrick, who had thrown an interception in three straight games and four of his last five. It was a solid day overall, but the Giants […]
Kaden Smith Minimally Involved on Sunday
New York Giants tight end Kaden Smith drew another start on Sunday and finished with three catches for 38 yards. As long as Evan Engram (foot) is out, Smith will continue to see nearly all of the snaps at tight end for the Giants. However, he remains a touchdown-dependent option that isn't safe enough for […]
Darius Slayton Finds End Zone To Save Day
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton hauled in a second-half touchdown to salvage his day on Sunday. A week after manhandling the Eagles, many people expected big things for the rookie, but it's important to keep in mind that a few of his big catches last week came on busted coverages. Against the Dolphins […]
Golden Tate Has One Big Play Versus Dolphins
New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate made his impact felt on one play on Sunday. The veteran slot receiver hauled in a 51-yard touchdown from Eli Manning for his only catch of the day on four targets. He's certainly taken a backseat to Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton and will be hard to trust […]
Sterling Shepard Leads Giants In Receiving
New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard was the star receiver for the team a week after Darius Slayton exploded on primetime against the Eagles. Shepard was second on the team in targets last week, so his role in the offense was never in doubt. This week, he led the team with 11 targets, finishing […]
Javorius Allen Works As Saquon Barkley's Back-up
New York Giants running back Javorius Allen saw his first real action of the year, collecting 28 yards and a touchdown in relief of Saquon Barkley. Almost all of Allen's work came on a late fourth-quarter drive when the Giants were up comfortably and rested Barkley, so there's not much stand-alone value in future weeks. […]
Saquon Barkley Finally Has Big Game
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley took advantage of his prime matchup on Sunday and finally had his first big game since coming back from his ankle injury. The second-year star abused the Dolphins Defense for 112 yards and two touchdowns on the ground while catching four passes for another 31 yards. He gave […]
Eli Manning Has Ugly But Productive Day
It wasn't pretty, but New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning helped his team, and fantasy teams, on Sunday in a win over the Dolphins. The veteran completed 20 of 28 passes for 283 yards and two touchdowns, but he did also throw three interceptions. Bottom line is that he took advantage of the opportunities that […]
