Jameis Winston Replaces Ryan Fitzpatrick Again
The Buccaneers quarterback carousel continues as Jameis Winston replaced Ryan Fitzpatrick mid-game against the Giants. Fitzpatrick threw three interceptions in the first half and was benched for Winston who proceeded to throw two touchdowns and fumble the ball for a touchdown into the end-zone. Although Winston brought his team close to victory, there has been... Read More
Adam Humphries Scores on Sunday
Buccaneers wide receiver Adam Humphries found the end-zone yet again in Week 11. Humphries has been a thorn in the side of Buccaneers skill position owners as it seems like he is the go-to target in up-tempo situations. Humphries is the Bucs' WR4 yet has produced more than Chris Godwin and DeSean Jackson in recent... Read More
DeSean Jackson Fails to Produce in Week 11
Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson had another poor outing this past Sunday. Jackson hauled in four catches for 38 yards on seven targets and failed to reach the end-zone yet again. This is Jackson's sixth game in a row without 100 yards and third straight without a touchdown. He has been fairly cold since the... Read More
O.J. Howard Solid in Loss
Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard had a decent game Sunday against the Giants. Howard posted five catches on six targets for 78 yards and left the game prior to the final drive as he was getting looked at by trainers. The Giants have been vulnerable against tight ends all year so it comes as no... Read More
Peyton Barber Breaks Loose Against Giants
Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber had a great game in New York. He rushed for 106 yards on 18 carries and found the end-zone. Barber also threw in two catches for four yards to PPR players as a cherry on top of a solid outing. These types of games have been few and far between... Read More
Mike Evans Rewards Owners Sunday
Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans had his first blow-up game in weeks on Sunday. There have been several instances this season where Evans has failed to return his third-round value but this last weekend against the Giants was not one of them. With six catches on seven targets, 120 yards, and a touchdown, owners everywhere... Read More
Is Tampa Bay's Defense Worse than the Giants' Offense?
On one hand, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers can't defend. On the other hand, the New York Giants can't offend (except their fans). Classic movable object meeting a stoppable force situation. The Giants added guard Jamon Brown last week and shored up their line enough to only give up one sack. With weapons all around the... Read More
Peyton Barber a Desperation RB3 at Best Sunday
Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber is bad. The fact that he's continually started in some leagues is astonishing. Regardless, he has a slight chance of producing against the Giants. With the absence of Damon "Snacks" Harrison, New York is extremely exposable up the gut (where Barber loves to run). Definitely would be hesitant to start... Read More
DeSean Jackson a Flex for Week 11
Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson has established himself as a flex more than anything these past few weeks. He's worth a start this weekend against the Giants given that they are week around the middle of the field. He's pretty due for a deep touchdown and Fitzpatrick is just the guy to toss him one.... Read More
Mike Evans More of a WR2 Sunday
Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has had some trouble lately. His weekly performances have been inconsistent since Week 4 and it seems that quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has decided to look elsewhere when he's in trouble. Evans is still a must-start every week given his ceiling but we have to be aware of his lower floor... Read More
Ryan Fitzpatrick in Play as a QB1 Against Giants
Buccaneers quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick disappointed owners last weekend with an absolute dud against the Redskins but has a chance to bounce back against the Giants' porous defense. The New York Giants are basically in a weird rebuilding phase where they are pretending to try. With the current state of the defense and Eli Manning at... Read More

As an addendum to our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, in this column we also present suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB). As a caveat, these prices do not by any means indicate how much... Read More
Adam Humphries (WR, TB) - Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Adam Humphries has received 30 targets over the past four games. Garbage time has served him well to say the least. Humphries is not someone I want to add, let alone start but he deserves a mention for... Read More
RotoBaller NBA Recap - Comeback Kyrie
Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games. Thursday night featured a typical short slate of NBA games. The most scintillating game turned out to be the most unlikely. The Phoenix Suns and Boston Celtics faced off in the game of the... Read More
Adam Humphries, Chris Godwin Low-End WR3s for Sunday
Buccaneers wide receivers Chris Godwin and Adam Humphries are not the best starting options this coming Sunday but could be in play if you are desperate at the position. Bye weeks often ravage teams this late in the season and sometimes all you're left with is a waiver wire pick up or someone like Godwin... Read More
Flex DeSean Jackson on Sunday
Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson is in his usual flex territory this coming Sunday against Washington. The Redskins gave up a few big plays to the Falcons last weekend, and although they might be more careful going forward, it's still possible for D-Jax to go off. Jackson is typically boom-or-bust and he should be started... Read More
Mike Evans Looks to Bounce Back Sunday
Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans will likely see plenty of Josh Norman this Sunday. Tampa is hosting Washington this weekend and they are both in desperate need of a win. Evans is coming off of one of his worst games ever last weekend against Carolina and this Sunday will not be easy to make up... Read More
Ryan Fitzpatrick's Ceiling Lower in Week 10
Buccaneers quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has been money (fantasy-wise) when he's played this season. The veteran QB has utilized the deep-ball extremely well in targeting his talented receivers in high-scoring affairs throughout the year. Unfortunately, this week against the Redskins, he might not be as potent. The Redskins defense is not one of the best, however,... Read More

DeSean Jackson and Chris Godwin Disappoint on Sunday
The Buccaneers' co-WR2s DeSean Jackson and Chris Godwin failed to do much against a mediocre Carolina pass defense. Jackson caught two passes for 32 yards and Godwin caught two for 40. The tandem was outshined by slot receiver Adam Humphries who took two catches to the house and received more targets than Godwin and Jackson... Read More
Ryan Fitzpatrick Eats Up Garbage Time on Sunday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick set himself up nicely before halftime to lead fantasy teams everywhere to commanding leads. The journeyman QB found himself down by 28 points in the first half and knew it was his time to shine. Fitzmagic was all the way up as he went on to toss four touchdowns... Read More
Adam Humphries Scores Twice in Carolina
Buccaneers wide receiver Adam Humphries found his way to the end zone twice on Sunday. Humphries was targeted eight times and hauled in every single pass for 82 yards and two scores. He was an unwelcome surprise to every fantasy owners who had a piece of the other Tampa pass-catchers. Humphries is the lowest owned... Read More
Mike Evans Busts Against Carolina
Condolences to anyone who started Buccaneers wideout Mike Evans this week. Week 9 was his worst week of the season and it was not pretty. Evans caught one pass for 16 yards against a Carolina defense that isn't strong against the pass. Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was slinging it in the second half trying to lead... Read More
Buccaneers Defense Will be Ravaged by Panthers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense/special teams shouldn't ever be in consideration as a fantasy start. This rings especially true against the Panthers this week. Carolina's ability to gash defenses with their short passing game will be fully utilized against them. Fully expect Christian McCaffrey and Cam Newton to have a field day. D.J. Moore and... Read More
DeSean Jackson a WR2 Against Carolina
Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson is in play as a WR2 this Sunday against the Panthers. Jackson has a special connection with quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and they will look to exploit a weak Carolina secondary. Jackson's ability as a deep threat is fully utilized by Fitzpatrick who has thrown every touchdown to him this season.... Read More
O.J. Howard Becoming an Every-Week TE1
Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard is basically a must-start tight end if you own him. It's getting to the point where he might even be a flex option. Howard has thrived in his role as the Buccaneers TE1, essentially usurping Cameron Brate. This week's matchup against Carolina is extremely favorable as the Panthers have given... Read More
Mike Evans a Top-Five WR Sunday
Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans may be the top scorer at his position this Sunday against Carolina. The Panthers are fairly weak against the pass and do not have anyone talented enough to stop Evans. It's possible that he's double-teamed but that would be foolish given the dearth of pass-catching talent in Tampa. The Bucs... Read More
Ryan Fitzpatrick Set for Shootout Sunday
Buccaneers quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is in for a tough battle against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. The Carolina offense has been rolling since Norv Turner took over and it will be an uphill battle for Tampa to win. This is good news for anyone who has to start Fitzpatrick this weekend given that he is... Read More
