Sam Bradford Has Terrible Showing In Week 2
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Sam Bradford had a terrible game against the Rams and was one of the main reasons the team was shut out in their 34-0 defeat. Bradford completed 17 for 27 passes but was only able to put up 90 yards (one of the passes also went for an interception). Bradford is clearly... Read More

Warning Signals - RB / WR / TE
Every year, certain players are highly drafted in drafts by fantasy owners due to the belief that they will vastly outperform expectations throughout the season. Oftentimes, these players carry a significant amount of hype due to breakout potential, elite status, or lack of alternative options on their teams. However, with every player that does meet...

David Johnson Limited In Thursday's Practice
Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (back) logged in another limited practice session on Thursday. However, so far in the week it looks as if he will be fine to play this Sunday against the Rams. Johnson is a locked-in RB1 if healthy, making him a must-start option this weekend despite any injury concerns.
Ricky Seals-Jones A Risky Option In Week 2
Arizona Cardinals tight end Ricky Seals-Jones is a risky option against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 2. Seals-Jones will most certainly get the most looks out of any tight end on the roster, but the Rams tough defense will make it difficult to generate much out of those targets. Seals-Jones is a low-end TE2... Read More
Chad Williams And Christian Kirk Can Improve In Week 2
Arizona Cardinals wide receivers Chad Williams and Christian Kirk can both improve in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams. After both young wideouts failed to impress in the team's opening week, they will hope to rebound against one of the toughest secondaries in football. Therefore, neither Williams nor Kirk should be considered a starting... Read More
Larry Fitzgerald A Solid WR2 for Week 2
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald should once again be considered a solid WR2 for the team's matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Fitzgerald is almost guaranteed to lead the team in targets and catches, making him dangerous to have a good game almost every single week. Therefore, Fitzgerald should be considered a high-floor option... Read More
David Johnson Hopes To Do Better In Week 2
Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson will hope to improve on his solid performance last week in his Week 2 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Johnson has shown that he is virtually matchup proof; however, he needs to do better in the receiving game to generate consistent fantasy returns. The veteran running back should... Read More
Sam Bradford Hopes To Rebound In Week 2
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Sam Bradford will hope for a rebound performance in his team's second game of the season. However, facing a formidable Rams defense, it may be difficult to generate a significant stat-line on the night. Therefore, Bradford should be considered a low-end QB2 for Week 2 in what should definitely be a tough... Read More

T.J. Logan Logs Full Practice
Arizona Cardinals running back T.J. Logan (ankle) logged a full practice on Wednesday. Logan didn't feature in the team's game last week and looks to be the third running back on the depth chart after David Johnson and Chase Edmonds. Logan has almost no fantasy value unless one or both of those players were to... Read More
David Johnson Has Limited Practice On Wednesday

Johnson was able to play the entire game last weekend with no concerns, and is likely just being rested this week in anticipation of a tough matchup against the Rams in Week 2. Hopefully Johnson is able to return to full... Read More
Steve Wilks Critiques David Johnson's Performance
Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson played well, according to head coach Steve Wilks, but needed to catch more passes and do better in pass protection. Johnson had an average stat-line that was capped by a touchdown late in the game; clearly, as the focal point of the team's offense, the veteran running back needs... Read More
Ricky Seals-Jones Disappoints in Week 1
Arizona Cardinals tight end Ricky Seals-Jones was able to record three catches for 19 yards in the team's loss to the Washington Redskins. The tight end did have six targets, however, which bodes well for his season-long prospects, especially if he remains atop the depth chart. For now, consider Seals-Jones a risky TE2 with decent... Read More
Christian Kirk and Chad Williams Underwhelm in Week 1
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Christian Kirk was only able to record one catch for four yards in the team's loss to the Redskins, while fellow wideout Chad Williams failed to get even one catch. Both options have season-long flex appeal, but they should only really be considered in deeper leagues when the team has a... Read More
Larry Fitzgerald Continues Trend From Last Year
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald once again led all receivers on his team in catches, something that happened almost every week in 2017. Fitzgerald ended the day with seven catches for 76 yards on ten targets; the next highest receiver (not including running backs) only was able to muster up 19 yards. Fitzgerald's place... Read More
Chase Edmonds Plays Well In Limited Role
Arizona Cardinals rookie running back Chase Edmonds played well in the snaps that he received as a complementary option to David Johnson. Edmonds ended up with four rushes for 24 yards as well as four receptions for an additional 24 yards through the air. Edmonds looks to play a complementary role during the year and... Read More
David Johnson Saves Day With Touchdown
In a game where his team trailed for almost the entire game, Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson was only able to muster nine carries for 37 yards. Although he did score a touchdown and had five receptions for 30 yards on nine targets, Johnson will certainly be hoping that he could've had more touches... Read More
Sam Bradford Falls Short In Week 1
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Sam Bradford had a rather disappointing day against the Redskins. Bradford was able to complete 20 of his 34 pass attempts, yet registered a paltry 153 yards and an interception for his efforts. Fans will be calling for rookie Josh Rosen to play in front of Bradford after the team's defeat in... Read More
David Johnson Still Not Close To New Deal
Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson does not expect to sign a new deal before the team's game against the Redskins in Week 1. Johnson is in the last year of his rookie contract. Coming off of his wrist injury, Johnson has to have a great season if he wants to earn what some of... Read More
Ricky Seals-Jones A TE2 For Week 1
Arizona Cardinals tight end Ricky Seals-Jones has a good matchup against the Redskins in Week 1. With the availability of Jermaine Gresham still in question, the second-year pro has the chance to make a difference as the team's starting tight end. Seals-Jones should be considered a low-end TE2 with touchdown upside for this week.
Chad Williams Has Upside In Week 1
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Chad Williams has some upside against a weak Redskins secondary this week. Williams, the second year pro, is the No. 2 wideout on the team's depth chart entering the season but should split reps with rookie Christian Kirk. Nevertheless, with the expected playing style of the Cardinals offense, expect Williams to... Read More
Larry Fitzgerald Should Play Well Against Redskins
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald should play well against a weak Redskins defense. Fitzgerald is entering his 15th NFL season and is the main option in the Cardinals passing game. The veteran wideout is a high-end WR2 for this week due to the expected targets that he will receive as quarterback Sam Bradford's primary... Read More
David Johnson Is An RB1 Heading Into Week 1
Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson is expected to take on a workhorse role from the start of the team's Week 1 matchup against the Washington Redskins.

Sam Bradford Expects Decent Showing In Week 1
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Sam Bradford should have a decent outing against the Washington Redskins in Week 1. Bradford heads into the season as the confirmed starter, with Josh Rosen and Mike Glennon backing him up.

Ricky Seals-Jones Named As Starting Tight End
Arizona Cardinals tight end Ricky Seals-Jones has been named as the team's starting tight end for the 2018 season. Veteran Jermaine Gresham was recently activated off of the PUP list and is the third tight end on the team's initial depth chart. Seals-Jones was impressive last year and should be considered an interesting TE2 option... Read More
Five More Very Deep Wide Receiver Sleepers
As draft season comes to an end, it is important to remember that there is good value available in the late rounds or even on waivers after it's all over.

Cardinals Name Chad Williams As Starting Wide Receiver
