Golden Tate, Evan Engram Not Practicing
New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate (concussion) and tight end Evan Engram (foot) are not practicing on Wednesday. Tight end Rhett Ellison (concussion) was also absent from practice. All three players should be considered on the wrong side of questionable right now for Week 13 against the Packers. Tate had only three catches last […]

Week 13 Tight End Waiver Wire Picks and Streamers
There’s nothing worse than having a turkey at the tight end position! Sorry for the Thanksgiving-related lead. Sometimes I cannot help myself. The fact is that there is something for fantasy football players to be thankful for besides sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie. No NFL teams are on bye for the first time in a […]
Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 13
We have now arrived at Week 13, which places us at the threshold of the fantasy playoffs. The unwanted process of bye weeks has been eviscerated until next season. However, if you own Ezekiel Elliott, Alvin Kamara, Latavius Murray, David Montgomery, Tarik Cohen, Devin Singletary, or Bo Scarbrough, here is a reminder that they will be performing […]
Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 13
Week 13 is upon us, and for many of us that means the last chance to make it into the playoffs is upon us. For others who play in leagues with multi-week playoff matchups, the postseason is here. Whatever situation you're in, it's an important time for fantasy owners. The importance of the waiver wire […]
Week 12 Surprises? We Must Overreact Immediately!
In Week 12, several high-end quarterbacks had terrible games due to rainy and/or windy conditions. It was both windy and rainy in the Boston area on Sunday which contributed to both Tom Brady and Dak Prescott finishing with less than 12 fantasy points. There were stiff winds in Philadelphia and as a result, Russell Wilson came […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 13 Lightning Round
Week 13 approaches, which signifies the final "regular season" game for most of your leagues and no more bye weeks. Those lining up for a first-round bye should start eyeing Week 15 matchups, but don't forget to seal the deal. To help you look towards those precious playoff weeks, here is the waiver wire lightning […]
Aldrick Rosas Was Brutal on Sunday
New York Giants kicker Aldrick Rosas missed both field goals on Sunday in a game that was only decided by five points. The former Pro Bowler has been a shell of himself this season. Perhaps the Giants poor offense has something to do about it, as Rosas has had far fewer opportunities this year than […]
Kaden Smith Catches Touchdown
New York Giants tight end Kaden Smith caught a touchdown that likely helped zero fantasy teams on Sunday. The Giants' fourth-string tight end was thrust into action with injuries to Evan Engram (foot) and Rhett Ellison (concussion), but he was up to the task, finishing with five catches for 17 yards and a touchdown. With […]
Sterling Shepard Leads Team In Targets In Return
New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard returned from his concussion and immediately led the team with nine targets. Shepard's final stat line wasn't impressive, with five catches for 15 yards, but seeing him return to such a heavy workload is a good sign. He seems to have jumped Darius Slayton and Golden Tate in […]
Golden Tate Catches Touchdown In Loss
New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate caught three passes for 33 yards and a touchdown on Sunday. He secured a nice contested catch in the back of the end zone and saw seven targets overall, but Sterling Shepard's return cut into Tate's target share. With Evan Engram (foot) also likely to return soon, the […]
Darius Slayton Remains Effective With Shepard Back
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton remained a large part of the Giants offense even with Sterling Shepard (concussion) back. Slayton was tied for second on the team with seven targets, catching four of them for 67 yards. The eventual return of Evan Engram will likely take another chunk out of Slayton's targets, but […]
Saquon Barkley With Another Disappointing Outing
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley had another disappointing outing against the Bears on Sunday, totaling 59 yards on 17 carries. The fact that he wasn't able to take advantage of a Bears run defense that had been hemorrhaging yards on the ground is not a good sign, but even more troubling is that […]
Daniel Jones Serviceable In Loss to Bears
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones was fine in the Giants' loss on Sunday. The rookie went up against a tough Bears Defense and completed 21 of 36 passes for 150 yards and two touchdowns. He added 27 yards on two carries. It wasn't a banner fantasy day, but Jones didn't make any bad decisions […]

In Week 11, several of the wide receivers recommended in last week's column came through with solid performances. On the high-end, Michael Thomas came through as the No. 5 receiver on the week, while Mike Evans and Chris Godwin both came up rather small against a Saints Defense that was without Marshon Lattimore. John Brown […]

Week 12 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis
Last week's entree of fantasy choices was supposed to be a filet mignon which turned into a Salisbury Steak. Let’s hope this week doesn’t provide us with the same disappointment.

Aldrick Rosas Remains Unplayable on Sunday
New York Giants kicker Aldrick Rosas hasn't been much of a fantasy option all year, but he's certainly not going to be one against the Bears. Chicago has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing kickers, and the short-handed Giants offense will likely find it hard to move the ball against the Bears […]
