Giants Sign Corey Coleman To Practice Squad

The New York Giants signed free-agent Corey Coleman to their practice squad on Thursday, according to a source. Coleman was traded to the Bills by the Browns before the season and then was cut before signing with New England and being cut again. His stock is obviously way down and he's highly unlikely to carve […]

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 […]

Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions

Last week it was the vulture, this week it's the no-names. The phrase "that doesn't help anybody" is well-known by fantasy owners and was uttered repeatedly in Week 7. We saw touchdowns from Marcus Johnson, David Moore, Jaron Brown, Paul Richardson, Ito Smith, Erik Swoope, Chris Herndon IV, and Nick O'Leary. That was just in […]

Week 7 Quarterback Waiver Wire Adds and Pickups

It was another interesting week at the quarterback position. We had more huge games from available quarterbacks, a surprise inactive, and continued disappointment from a few veteran quarterbacks. Week 7 is the first big bye week, as four teams are one bye. Owners of Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Derek Carr, and Ben Roethlisberger will need […]

Thursday Night Football Matchups Analysis - Week 7

The last Thursday Night Football battle featuring two NFC East squads was clearly a one-sided affair. The Philadelphia Eagles completely outpaced the New York Giants in a game where quarterback Carson Wentz threw for three touchdowns, including two to wide receiver Alshon Jeffery, and new lead rusher Corey Clement managed to punch in a touchdown […]

C.J. Beathard (QB, SF) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: What a time to be alive. San Francisco 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard is a decent waiver pickup by virtue of an inflated fantasy quarterback position. Basically as long as you're not Nathan Peterman level bad, you'll end up being worth a look at some point or […]

Sterling Shepard Will Have WR3 Appeal In Week 7

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard has 31 catches on the season for 341 yards and two touchdowns. He will have a sparkling matchup against a Falcons defense that already has allowed 13 different receivers to score more than 10 fantasy points against them through six games. Atlanta is surrendering the fifth most fantasy […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Should Feast On Falcons Defense

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will have a dynamite matchup against a porous Falcons secondary this Monday night in Week 7. Beckham Jr. leads the team with 45 receptions for 506 yards and one touchdown but has been bottled up most of the season. He will have a chance to breakout in […]

Saquon Barkley Has Dynamite MNF Matchup For Week 7

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley will have a fantastic matchup in Week 7 against a Falcons defense that is allowing the third most fantasy points to running backs this season. Barkley has lived up to his preseason hype through the first six games of his career, racking up 373 receiving yards, 438 rushing […]

Eli Manning Has Fantastic Matchup For MNF

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning has struggled through his first six games of the season but will have a favorable matchup in Week 7 against a vulnerable Falcons defense. Manning lacks mobility and has hesitated to push the ball down the field but will face a Falcons defense that is allowing the fourth most […]

Deeper Sleepers Heading Into Week 7

Apologies for not telling you to add fantasy superstars Nick O'Leary, David Moore, and Brock Osweiller last week. Clearly I have failed you as a fantasy football writer. I am not worthy of your page views. I'm speaking sarcastically, of course. Those were just three of the names that make you roll your eyes and […]

Cody Latimer Lands On Injured Reserve

The New York Giants placed wide receiver Cody Latimer (hamstring) and linebacker Ray-Ray Armstrong (concussion) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday. In corresponding moves, the Giants signed receiver Bennie Fowler, linebacker Ukeme Eligwe and cornerback Grant Hale and waived cornerback Donte Deayon. Latimer had been operating as the No. 3 wideout this year but hadn't been […]

Evan Engram Practicing Tuesday

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (knee) is taking part in practice on Tuesday. Engram hasn't played since Sept. 23 when he sprained his MCL, but he was close to returning last Thursday and is on track to play on Monday night against the Falcons with extra time to get healthy. He'll have a […]

Eli Manning (QB, NYG) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you're a Giants fan, owner of New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning, or simply follow football closely enough to know that Manning has looked horrible for most of the year, suggesting him as a waiver wire pickup seems like a questionable call. The […]

Alex Tanney (QB, NYG) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: To be candid, I do not know much about New York Giants quarterback Alex Tanney. Much of what we know about him comes from this video. He was a monster at D3 Monmouth College and came into the NFL a little bit older at the […]

The favorites in Week 5 gave many people left in survivor pools a real scare. The Bengals scored 27 unanswered to beat the Dolphins after being down 17-0.

Week 6 Consistency Reports - All Positions

We now have over a quarter of a seasons worth of data at our fingertips and the cream has well and truly risen to the top.

Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 6 Fantasy Football Picks

Just like there is no such thing as an announcer jinx, the same goes for writers or analysts. To call Jay Ajayi a fantasy bust and "Zero" last week, only to see him suffer another devastating injury by tearing his ACL, isn't my fault. It doesn't feel good to see it either, especially since I […]

Inside the Tent - Week 6 NFL Injury Insight

Seemingly, everyone in the NFL is dealing with a hamstring strain or a sprained MCL. Leonard Fournette has been dealing with a lingering hamstring issue for weeks as well as Dalvin Cook. For the wide receivers, T.Y. Hilton and Geronimo Allison are dealing with hamstring strains as well. Sprained MCLs are also all the rage […]

RB Touches and Efficiency Breakdown - Week 6 Preview

It’s frustrating. I don’t claim to be smarter than NFL executives or general managers. While that would be a dream job, I’m content right here at my computer giving my opinion. With that being said, I would love to be in the coach’s room while they try to justify leaving running backs on the bench […]
