Keenan Allen A Low-End WR1 For Chicago Matchup

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen is a low-end WR1 this week in his matchup against Chicago, assuming that he plays. Allen has been dealing with a hamstring injury that has limited his participation in practice, and he likely will be a game-time decision. However, if he is able to play, then he should […]

Austin Ekeler Has Flex Consideration Against Chicago

Ekeler has seen a reduction in carries since Melvin Gordon returned to the team, but he still has been heavily involved in the passing game. The Chicago Bears have given up an average of […]

Melvin Gordon Could Be In Line For Big Performance

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon could be in line for a big performance against the Chicago Bears this week. Gordon hasn't performed well since his return from his early-season holdout, due in part to the struggles of the offensive line, but this game offers a get-right opportunity. The Chargers are set to welcome […]

Philip Rivers A Borderline Streaming Option Against Chicago

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers is a borderline streaming option for his matchup against the Chicago Bears. Rivers is likely to welcome his starting left tackle Russell Okung (heart) back for the first time this season, and crucially the Chicago Bears Defense isn't the same without defensive tackle Akiem Hicks. However, the Bears have […]

Jake Kumerow Has Fantasy Value In Deep Leagues This Week

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jake Kumerow has fantasy value in deep leagues in Week 8, but only if things break his way. During the preseason, Kumerow seemed to be the next man up for the Packers if any of their receivers missed time, but it has been Allen Lazard who has seen more of […]

Allen Lazard Has Value Against Kansas City

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard has value in deeper leagues this week against the Kansas City Chiefs due to injured receivers on the team. Davante Adams (toe) has missed the past two matchups and is doubtful for this one, vacating targets for the offense. Lazard played the most snaps among receivers last week and […]

Red Zone Risers, Fallers - Mike Evans, Mike Williams, Josh Jacobs

Mason Crosby An Effective Starter This Week

Packers Defense A Great Streaming Option This Week

The Green Bay Packers Defense could prove to be a great streaming option this week for the matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Jimmy Graham A Borderline Starter Against Kansas City

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham is a borderline starting tight end against Kansas City this week.

The Kansas City Chiefs have given up an average of 7.1 points to the […]

Geronimo Allison Could Have Flex Appeal Against Kansas City

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison could have flex appeal for the upcoming matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

While Allison hasn't been able to convert those opportunities into fantasy points, […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling A Risky Start Against Kansas City

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling is a risky start against the Kansas City Chiefs but has plenty of upside. Valdes-Scantling had an impressive game against the Oakland Raiders last week but only had three targets. The Chiefs are one of the better units against the position, allowing an average of 19.5 points this […]

Jamaal Williams Has Flex Appeal Against Chiefs

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams could have flex appeal against the Kansas City Chiefs, but only in deeper leagues. Williams has been the rotation back for the Packers this season but has caught a touchdown in his last two games. The Chiefs, however, are one of the worst units in the league at […]

Aaron Jones In RB1 Consideration This Week

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones is in the RB1 consideration this week for his matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Jones was given the keys to the offense last week after being benched for the majority of Week 6, but he struggled to make an impact. However, the Chiefs are not an effective […]

Aaron Rodgers To Continue His Impressive Form

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers impressed last week against the Oakland Raiders and will look to continue that this week against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs have given up an average of 18.0 points to the position this season, but that number could have been far higher if the Houston Texans hadn't dropped […]

Offensive Line Rankings Analysis: Week 8

With Week 7 in the books, we have a new team in the top five offensive lines! Good offensive line play gives a team the best chance to be effective. However, a lot of fantasy owners completely overlook its importance to identify the reasons behind a player's struggles. Is he being handicapped by the protection ahead […]

Allen Lazard Impresses In Victory Over Oakland

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard was able to have an impressive debut in the victory over the Oakland Raiders. Lazard finished the game with three catches for 42 yards.

Geronimo Allison Unable To Score In Victory Over Oakland

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison was unable to keep his feet in bounds to score a touchdown against the Oakland Raiders.

Jimmy Graham Catches Touchdown In Victory Over Oakland

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham caught a short touchdown in the team's victory over the Oakland Raiders.

Offensive Line Rankings Analysis: Week 7

In Week 6, we once again saw some great football, starting with the New England Patriots continuing their undefeated start to the season and ending with one of the most controversial games of the week as the Green Bay Packers overcame the Detroit Lions. The London games continued with Jameis Winston struggling once again, this […]

Packers Defense Could Offer Streaming Appeal

The Green Bay Packers Defense could be an effective streaming option against the Oakland Raiders this week. The Raiders were able to deny the Chicago Bears a single sack in their last game, but that was due in part to the injury to defensive tackle Akiem Hicks. The Packers have been able to bring pressure […]

Mason Crosby In Line For Great Game Against Oakland

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby is in line for a great game against the Oakland Raiders. The Packers have needed to call upon their veteran kicker multiple times this season, with him only missing one of his 11 attempts this year. Given the struggles that the offense has had this season and the offense […]

Jimmy Graham Could Prove To Be An Effective Option

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham could prove to be an effective option against the Oakland Raiders this week. The Packers look likely to be missing Davante Adams (toe) and Geronimo Allison (concussion) this week, meaning Graham could be given more targets in this game. The Raiders are one of the worst teams at defending the […]
