Week 9 Starts and Sits: Lovin’ Le’Veon

There’s a lot to like about Le’Veon Bell right now, especially with what he’s done in difficult matchups thus far. Keepers has the details. http://youtu.be/7L7TTG3vQS0 The Colts D/ST looks good this week against the woeful Houston Texans, still starting rookie Case Keenum. While Keenum has been okay thus far, the Texans, especially if they are…… Continue reading Week 9 Starts and Sits: Lovin’ Le’Veon

Week 9 Pickups: Marvin Jones-ing for the Playoffs

You might be asking yourself who Marvin Jones is. I’ll tell you. He’s probably the guy who had the best game of his season (and possibly career) in Week 8. On to pickups… Don’t forget to check back on Week 8 and Week 7 pickups to make sure they aren’t still floating around out there.…… Continue reading Week 9 Pickups: Marvin Jones-ing for the Playoffs

Week 8 Starts and Sits: All of the byes! All of them!

http://youtu.be/F1fD-Tuqncs Keepers gets the lead off. Reuben Randle is looking like a weekly flex play with the amount of targets he’s getting in the Giants passing game. Sad face for the rec to sit Greg Olsen after he finally got in the end zone Thursday night. Is it bad that I’m starting to come back…… Continue reading Week 8 Starts and Sits: All of the byes! All of them!

Week 8 Pickups: Harry Douglas, Jarrett Boykin, and the attack of the injury fill-ins

Week 7 showed us that those with opportunity can produce. Jarrett Boykin filled in more than admirably for James Jones and Randall Cobb. Harry Douglas made the most of his opportunity to be the Falcons No. 1 wideout. But to top that off, we got a bunch of new injuries to send us scrambling to…… Continue reading Week 8 Pickups: Harry Douglas, Jarrett Boykin, and the attack of the injury fill-ins

Pay your dues…or else

Don’t be a douche. Fantasy football season is well underway. If you haven’t already, it’s time to pay your dues to your league commish…or maybe the collector will find you? http://youtu.be/R38MNOQODM4 Sure, the video’s a little goofy, but it is important to pay your dues. Bugging people to pay up might be the worst thing…… Continue reading Pay your dues…or else

Do franchise quarterbacks deserve all the credit for winning?

Fantasy Douche has traditionally been one to bust conventions when it comes to NFL truths, written or unwritten. Back in January, he challenged the assumption that a quarterback is the key to a winning franchise by taking a look at the Patriots' passing game history and what it means to have talented receivers. "Obviously the… Continue reading Do franchise quarterbacks deserve all the credit for winning?

Week 7 Starts and Sits: Randles everywhere you look

Do you believe in Ryan Mathews? He’s got a nice matchup this week, but it’s probably time to sell. http://youtu.be/dM2EGKMVohQ Gronkowski is back in the mix in matchups. Rotoworld has some streaming defense thoughts. CBS believes this is the week Hakeem Nicks and Greg Jennings come back from the fantasy dead and that Cutler will…… Continue reading Week 7 Starts and Sits: Randles everywhere you look

Week 7 Pickups: Were we Foles-ish not to pick them up last week?

We didn’t discover many new talents this week, but injuries continue to open doors. And you may have a second chance to go after the ones we identified last week. There are also plenty of midseason stashes that you should start hoarding on your benches at this point in the season. Who would I go…… Continue reading Week 7 Pickups: Were we Foles-ish not to pick them up last week?

Pierre Garcon, Gronkowski, and Tom Brady make great midseason buy lows

Rotoworld's Evan Silva shared his "20 Trade Targets & 15 Stashes" just before Week 6. Unfortunately, his predictions for Vernon Davis, Eddie Lacy, A.J. Green, and Stevan Ridley may have already come too soon for you to acquire them. But Pierre Garcon, Gronkowski, and Tom Brady are likely to still be available at bargain rates.… Continue reading Pierre Garcon, Gronkowski, and Tom Brady make great midseason buy lows
