Good luck in the playoffs + reader feedback

It’s about that time. We’ve been chugging along here these last few weeks, but as the bell tolls on Week 13, it’s that time of year for us to stop doing our regular weekly waiver wire and start+sit articles. At this point, I imagine you’ve locked in your optimal lineup to carry you through to…… Continue reading Good luck in the playoffs + reader feedback

Week 13 Starts: Be thankful you made it this far

We’ll keep things short and sweet this week so you can get back to enjoying those leftovers. We didn’t cover waiver wire picks this week because turkey is distracting, but you can peruse the late additions suggested by FantasyPros, ESPN, Rotoworld, and Keepers. Buffalo Bills D/ST…oh, how I wish I could get you. When in…… Continue reading Week 13 Starts: Be thankful you made it this far

Week 12 Starts: Down for Antonio Brown

Matchups has it all. Certified advice from Keepers says you can start Eli Manning this week and dislikes Antonio Brown’s chances against Joe Haden. Does Haden have an island yet? http://youtu.be/DNXRe-1nE-s Matthew Berry doesn’t love bullies, but he does love Zac Stacy, Ben Tate, and Mike Glennon, just to name a few. The Sablich brothers…… Continue reading Week 12 Starts: Down for Antonio Brown

Week 12 Pickups: Grumble, grumble, disappoint

It’s been a rough two weeks. In what I would call my “main league” I’ve watched what I felt was a playoff contender fall apart in the last three weeks, and those losses are going to cost me a chance to compete in the playoffs this year. It’s really more painful to be so close…and…… Continue reading Week 12 Pickups: Grumble, grumble, disappoint

Week 10 Fantasy Football Pickups: Replace Your Quarterback? Rodgers That.

Corny title. Check. It’s never fun when you lose your stud quarterback — or any stud for that matter — this close to the playoffs. It hurts. But those unfortunate enough to lose Aaron Rodgers to injury can take solace in the wealth of quarterback options that have emerged to take his place. If you…… Continue reading Week 10 Fantasy Football Pickups: Replace Your Quarterback? Rodgers That.

Week 13 Pickups: We should have Knowshon Better

It’s getting too late in the season to be reading this unless you’ve already got a playoff spot. I hope you do. But if you’re reading this with no hope of making it to the big dance, I commend you. So what if your team imploded early in the season? You made a commitment to…… Continue reading Week 13 Pickups: We should have Knowshon Better

If you didn’t make the fantasy football playoffs, this one’s for you

You’re probably hurtin’ right now. You’re probably thinking nothing could cheer you up. But it’s important to remember that we all fall down. http://youtu.be/u2SAnyvFbUk It’s the picking yourself back up that matters. Sometimes, it just feels like you just can’t get over that hump, like you can’t break that bubble of Chris Johnson’s complete and…… Continue reading If you didn’t make the fantasy football playoffs, this one’s for you

Say Helu to Week 13 Pickups

Watching the Giants get utterly destroyed by the Saints on Monday Night Football forced me to dwell on one of my mistakes this season — I never should have dropped Victor Cruz. While he looked like a fluke after his big breakout performance, Cruz has come through the byes as one of the best wide…… Continue reading Say Helu to Week 13 Pickups

This Kevin Smith is not Too Fat to Fly in Week 12 Pickups

I can’t be certain that I covered all of this week’s best waiver wire grabs because, to be honest, after Adrian Peterson went down and rode out of the stadium on a cart, I went into shock and then into a hysterical state from which I am only now emerging. Is Twilight still a thing?…… Continue reading This Kevin Smith is not Too Fat to Fly in Week 12 Pickups

Moore to live for in Week 11 Pickups

It’s getting to be that time. The fantasy playoffs are near. Records are shaking out. If you’re set to make a deep playoff run, you should be reshaping your team to play it’s best fantasy football in Weeks 14-16.
