Week 15 Fantasy Football rankings

If you’ve made it this far in your Fantasy playoffs, then you are just a couple more wins away from winning the whole shebang! The Week 15 Fantasy Football Rankings should help you with those very difficult lineup decisions! Most likely, you’re not struggling with who to start at quarterback, tight end or kicker. But …

Week 14 Fantasy Football Playoffs

If you’re reading these Week 14 Fantasy Football rankings, there’s likely only two reasons for it: 1. You beat out half of your league for one of a few coveted playoff spots. 2. You’re in a league that doesn’t have a championship game until Week 17 and you’re sick of people mocking your league because …

It’s a crucial time in fantasy football, and I can only hope that you are one of the few that have survived to this point in the season. It’s either the playoffs or the last week of the regular season, and seasons are on the line. At this point, your roster is pretty much set, …

Week 13 Fantasy Football Rankings

The last week of the Fantasy regular season is upon us and the Week 13 Fantasy Football rankings are chock full of players from all 32 NFL teams for the first time in a long time. Normally, I’d do a chatty writeup about something interesting going on in Fantasy Football right now, but with three …

Ryan Tannehill

I think we can all agree to one conclusion after Week 12’s action: Odell Beckham Jr. is a beast. We witnessed him make the best catch I’ve personally ever seen. He grabbed the ball out of mid-air with just three fingers, and hauled it in for a TD, all while being interfered with; on his …

Week 4 Waiver Wire, Keep Calm

We're officially heading down the stretch, and in most leagues there are just 3 games left in the fantasy regular season. These games are crucial, and so are your roster moves at this point. Most likely, your trade deadline has passed, which means if you’re having problems at a certain position, it’s all up to …

Week 4 Start 'em Sit 'em

So many. Yes, I am referring to the teams on bye-weeks the last two weeks. Hopefully, you survived. However, if not, like me, there’s still hope, but it puts you in a must-win situation this week, and it makes for a very stressful upcoming week. Unfortunately, the NFL season has flown by, and we’re very …

Week 10 DST Rankings

Man, you picked a bad week for your defense/special teams to go on a bye week! The Week 10 DST rankings show you that any of the likely available Fantasy defenses in your league’s waivers aren’t going to have a great matchup in Week 10. For those that had a DST on a bye week …

Mark Sanchez, Butt fumble

Six quarterbacks are coming off of bye weeks and six quarterbacks are going on bye weeks, which means there are difficult decisions to make – and these Week 10 QB rankings prove that to be true. I just wrote my Week 10 Waiver Wire column for SI.com, and I suggested picking up Mark Sanchez, Kyle …

What a wild Week 9, but sadly it is time to move on. I got screwed, putting up 104 Fantasy points, but still losing as I played against Ben Roethlisberger. He carried my opponents’ team, and hurt mine. So, I’m excited to move on to a new week and get ready for a wild waiver …

What an exciting Sunday, I would say. There were many outstanding performances, including guys like Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger, Rob Gronkowski, and Arian Foster having monster games. However, there were some duds and also some injuries, which makes the Week 9 Waiver Wire extra important. Doug Martin continues to struggle, while he also injured his …

Waiver-Wire-Tuesday

Before we get into the Week 8 Waiver Wire, let's take a quick look back. The only word I could think of to express Week 7 is "Wow." We saw outstanding Fantasy performances from Golden Tate, Sammy Watkins, Ronnie Hillman, and many others. However, there were many brutal injuries, including Bills RB C.J. Spiller, who unfortunately …

Time for the waiver wire! Yes, chances are you’re still licking your wounds from a Week 6 Fantasy loss, or you may be still celebrating a win whether against a stranger, a co-worker, a friend or even your boss. I hate to be the negative one here, but it’s time to move on. It’s time …

Matt Forte, 2013 Fantasy Football PPR Rankings

Three of the preseason top 25 running backs were injured this past weekend, which makes these Week 6 RB rankings a little thinner than usual. Reggie Bush, Rashad Jennings and Montee Ball all came out of Week 5 a little worse for the wear, which means players like George Winn, Andre Williams and Denver’s Ronnie …

It's that time of week again! Coming off of Week 5, we saw many new players emerge to Fantasy relevance, and show great performances this weekend. As you make your Week 6 waiver wire picks, it's time to think whom you will submit a claim for. I am here to help, as I’ll give you …

Julio Jones, Fantasy Football Keeper Rankings

One quarter into the season, we find ourselves looking at plenty of star wide receivers limping around, dealing with tough injuries, which makes us deal with a difficult set of Week 5 WR rankings. Are you ready to make some tough decisions? Both Brandon Marshall and Calvin Johnson have been used as decoys recently, and …

Eli Manning, NYG, Players to Target

It's that time of the week again! Bye weeks are in full swing, and some of your key players will be missing. That makes you turn toward the Week 5 waiver wire. Which players should you pick up? This is my advice on which players to snag this week off waivers. Of course, you'll want …

Rob Gronkowski, 2014 Tight End Rankings

Who doesn’t love a great tight end? The Week 4 TE rankings are mixed up just a bit compared to previous weeks, as we have injuries to keep an eye out for and six teams on by weeks. That tends to change the Fantasy tight ends landscape, fo’ sho’. Two players that continue to skyrocket …

Week 4 Waiver Wire, Keep Calm

First off, I'd like to say that I am honored that I will be writing my weekly Fantasy Football articles here, and I am more than excited to get started and contribute my Fantasy Football knowledge, starting with the Week 4 Waiver Wire. This week, we had many new names contributing to their respective teams, …

Seahawks DST, Week 2 Defense Rankings

Was your league like most Fantasy Football leagues in Week 1, where five of the top six scoring Fantasy Defenses were unowned in the first week of the season? The Vikings, Texans, Titans, Lions and Eagles did their thing as Fantasy free agents, and now you’re wondering – how does this affect Week 2 Defense …

As I post my 2014 Fantasy Wide Receiver rankings, I think back to the late ‘80s and most of the ‘90s, when 49ers legend Jerry Rice was one of the greatest Fantasy players ever. I don’t just mean he was a great Fantasy pick at wide receiver, I mean he was one of the best …

Juan Francisco

A player turns a good game into a good week, then that week into a good month. Then, before you know it, the player becomes relevant, not only in your AL/NL only twelve team league, or any other deep league for that matter, but in every league you are in. The player has become one …

2014-Washington-Nationals-Preview

The 2013 Washington Nationals epitomized the plexiglass principle, giving back 12 of their 98 wins from the previous season. Fans and Fantasy owners alike suffered whiplash from the inevitable regression, ill-timed injuries, and the inability to catch a break. Meanwhile, the young stars who were supposed to make up for it had their own problems. …

Rod Streater, Week 15 Waiver Wire

If you’re lucky enough to still be interested in Fantasy this time of year, I applaud you. If you’re skilled enough to have earned a bye week this week, the players below could offer some backup off of the Week 15waiver wire. Picking those players up now, before the two winners of the Week 14 …

Jacob Tamme, Week 13 Sleepers

With the NFL bye weeks finished for this season, the need for players that are flying under the radar has diminished  a bit. However, many of our rosters are suffering from injuries and plain old under performance. I'm going to hone in on four Week 13 sleepers that I feel can be game changers this …

Jake Locker, Week 2 QB Rankings

Before we get right into the Week 9 Waiver Wire Adds, I'd like to note; Marvin Jones should have been included in this column already. The reason he wasn't is simple. Personal attachment to Mohamed Sanu. After watching his nifty three-week stretch last season, where he scored 4 times and was pegged as a Sleeper …

Seven days ago, before this Week 8 Waiver Wire Adds column, I began last week's article with a list of injuries to a number of Fantasy Football's top flight talents. This week is no different. The 2013 Fantasy Football landscape has been ravaged with injuries, it is unlikely that anyone has avoided the carnage and …

The injuries keep piling on, Julio Jones, Randall Cobb and DeMarco Murray will all miss time, to name a few and a number of players are emerging Fantasy Options. Personally, Andre Ellington could emerge a true Fantasy force come Playoff time and is someone to target in all formats. Additionally, if Nick Foles continues to …

Another week, another injury to deal with. Darren McFadden owners are cringing and Ray Rice's are wondering why he even played at all. Andre Johnson proved that sometimes all it takes is a kick in the shin to catch 9 balls for 110 yards, while C.J. Spiller, Alfred Morris and LeSean McCoy are all dealing …

The Bye Week bonanza begins now, which makes your waiver wire surfing all the more important and potentially rewarding. Keep your eyes peeled for potential improvements that others are dropping, or plan your own lineup complications a week in advance to avoid over spending, or potentially losing out. But ultimately, make your moves count. If …

Two deep and it has been everything you've waited for since last December when your league's championship was won right? Remember it isn't time to give up on some top options. Steven Ridley will turn it around and Roddy White will get going eventually. Cam Newton started slow last season and was the best QB …

Week 1 is in the books, you won, you lost, you might have even notched the rare draw. Regardless, it isn't time to sit on your roster, here are your top Week 2 Waiver Wire Adds. We already looked at some potential additions this weekend, but after the action this week more have emerged. Week …

You wont find Julius Thomas on this list. You saw enough of him Thursday night. Instead here are 5 Week 1 Free Agents to Target, even before we see anymore Week 1 games. It is unlikely that there will be an Alfred Morris type darling sitting around on Monday morning, but currently there are some available …

9 Last-Second Fantasy Tips -- Kenbrell Thompkins

You can only take in so many pieces of advice when preparing for your draft, so I thought I'd come up with some last-second Fantasy tips to confuse your mind further. Actually, did you know that during a speech, orators are told that listeners generally remember THREE things during that talk, so they try to …

Miles Austin, Week 3 Sleepers

The stock market is a lot like Fantasy Football. When a player’s value is at their lowest, it’s wise to invest in that stock, especially one that has nothing to lose. I have formulated a list of veterans that I believe are Fantasy value plays and whose stocks are relatively low. Some of these players …

Twins P Kevin Correia

From the perspective of a person that watches their fair share of Rockies games, the Rockies 2013 season, up to this point, has a lot in common with the season of rejuvenated Twins pitcher Kevin Correia. The Rockies record has been greeted by much skepticism from Colorado natives, while Correia’s performance has been seen as …

A real football general manager has several assistants helping him. Heck, they have a whole front office of people trying to manage everything about the team and its players. CBSSports Fantasy Football apps offer you that same type of assistance, with several great tools that can help push your team over the top. And you know I’m …

Tony Romo, Fantasy Football Strength of Schedule

Man, it sure was nice to have real football action on Wednesday night. (Wednesday football? It’s like Christmas in July!) The Cowboys upset the Giants, who had a little Super Bowl hangover going, and it was the first time the NFL champ lost their season opener in years. (Side grumble: Remember when the Bucs won …
