Well, we've reached Week 16. For most leagues, it's championship week.

Fantasy Football Pop Quiz - Week 16 Lineup Questions

A few weeks ago, I sorted out the two types of questions you should always be able to answer; some off the top of your head, and some dependent upon factors like date and time. It was used to basically say that come the end of November, you should know how many leagues where you'll […]

NFL Rookies To Watch In Week 16

Each week, we will look at rookies who have either performed well the previous few weeks or who have a favorable matchup in the upcoming week.

Deeper PPR Sleepers for Fantasy Football (Week 16)

Assuming your league's championship round concludes in Week 16, now is not the time to be looking for "depth." Instead, this last week of the waiver wire is to find an emergency starter, typically for an injury replacement. Whether you lost Antonio Brown or are crossing your fingers waiting on Keenan Allen, anyone you add […]

Week 16 Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

Week 15 kicked off with Kareem Hunt’s “Allow me to reintroduce myself” show and, among many other storylines, crescendoed with Antonio Brown suffering a partially torn calf muscle, likely ending his fantasy/regular season.

Running Backs Waiver Wire - Week 16 Pickups and Adds

Hopefully you're secure with your running back and/or flex situation, because the waiver wire cupboard is pretty bare at the position. Unless you were clever enough to play the Jaguars' fourth and fifth string running backs, you probably got very little off the wire in Week 15. Pickings are even slimmer this week, but you […]

NFL Survivor League Picks (Week 15): Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids

Coming into Sunday, this was one of the best cards we’ve had yet. It lived up to its potential. And then some. We saw a snow game, two overtime games, an incredible Sunday night football game, but it’s all overshadowed by Carson Wentz’s injury. It's so unfortunate to see the potential MVP go down in a […]

Futures Market - Dynasty League Wide Receivers

Last week, we looked at running backs in dynasty leagues. This time around, we try and decipher the wide receiver position. Unlike those in the backfield, those on the outside can rise and fade quickly like the tides. Two years ago, Randall Cobb had a third-round ADP and was a keeper for many fantasy owners. This […]

Week 14 saw the carnage start up once again, as Alvin Kamara went down on Thursday night before a myriad of injuries on Sunday saw an MVP frontrunner in Carson Wentz go down with a feared ACL injury.
