Is Carson Wentz A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 2? Waiver Wire Outlook

Carson Wentz played just like Carson Wentz does in Week 1. Wentz had his moments of brilliance where he showed why he was drafted second overall in the 2016 NFL draft. He made some pinpoint passes to shred the Jacksonville Jaguars defense for 313 yards and four touchdowns. Wentz looked energized quarterbacking a new team […]

Tyler Higbee (TE, LAR) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 59% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Higbee took advantage of No. 3 WR Van Jefferson being out of the lineup and was targeted 11 times in the Super Bowl champion Rams’ Thursday night loss. Yes, he was only able to manage 39 receiving yards on that treasure trove […]

Gerald Everett (TE, LAC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 49% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Chargers' offense is as stacked with explosive runners and receivers as Buffalo Wild Wings is with chicken and sauces. Fantasy managers knew that Everett, who set career-highs across the board (albeit modest ones) last year with the Seattle Seahawks, would be […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2: Top Free Agent Adds Include Gerald Everett, Tyler Higbee, O.J. Howard, Hayden Hurst

Are you already rethinking your plan for the tight end position on your fantasy football team? Well, you came to the right place. One week is in the books, and fantasy football managers across the country are already panicking because San Francisco’s George Kittle is missing games and Minnesota’s Irv Smith Jr. went catchless in […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 1: Top Free Agent Adds Include Evan Engram, Tyler Higbee, Robert Tonyan, Austin Hooper

The NFL season starts in less than a week. That means the fantasy football season starts in less than a week. Thank goodness. Maybe you are having drafter’s remorse about who you selected to be your tight ends for your fantasy football team. Maybe you pulled a Dallas Cowboys move and thought you would only […]

2022 Fantasy Football Sleeper: Curtis Samuel

2020 was a breakout season for Curtis Samuel. 2021 — not so much. Samuel turned his 2020 campaign into a $34.5 million contract with the Washington Football Team, but he did not provide one ounce of bang for the buck. He suited up for five games, caught six passes for 27 yards, and ran four […]

Tyler Higbee (TE, LAR) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~155 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~176 ANALYSIS: Everything lined up for Higbee to be a top-10 fantasy tight end in 2021. He had Matthew Stafford replacing Jared Goff as his quarterback, and longtime tight end teammate Gerald Everett took his talents to the Seattle Seahawks, so Higbee no longer had to share […]

DeVante Parker (WR, NE) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~126 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~149 ANALYSIS: Parker’s fantasy value is at the low point after back-to-back mediocre, injury-riddled campaigns, but I think Parker should flourish and be a fantasy sleeper with New England in 2022: New England’s roster is stocked with solid-but-not-spectacular receivers. Agholor had one superb season with the Raiders […]

Dawson Knox (TE, BUF) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~88 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~96 ANALYSIS: Knox was one of the biggest breakouts at the tight end position in 2021, if not the biggest. He went from being a touchdown-dependent pass catcher who was lucky to average 30 receiving yards per game to being a dominant red-zone fantasy force who set […]

Three Overvalued Quarterbacks - Potential Fantasy Football Busts For 2022

Quarterbacks are not only the cornerstones of NFL teams, they can be the cornerstones of fantasy football franchises as well. While running back is still the most important position in fantasy football, there is no way to win a fantasy football league without an above-average quarterback. While there are plenty of superb signal callers that […]

Tight End Dynasty Rankings - Fantasy Football Tiers and Draft Analysis

Fantasy football general managers do not build their dynasty league rosters and fantasy futures around the tight end position. Sure, tight ends are more important than kickers, defenses, and backups at the other skilled positions, but they take a back seat to quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers. This does not mean tight ends should […]

Is Josh Jacobs the RB1 of the Raiders? Where Should I Draft Him in Fantasy Football?

Josh Jacobs has been the unquestioned top tailback for the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders during his first three years with the organization. Is his reign as the Raiders’ No. 1 runner about to come to an end? There has been no threat to Jacobs’ touches since he was drafted out of Alabama in 2019.  He has […]

David Njoku: 2022 Breakout Candidate For Fantasy Football

The Cleveland Browns have made some interesting personnel decisions in recent years. Look no further than acquiring troubled quarterback Deshaun Watson and signing him to a $230 million deal when he was eventually suspended 11 games by the NFL for violating the league’s personal conduct policy. What Cleveland has done at the tight end position […]

Cole Kmet (TE, CHI) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~105 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~115 ANALYSIS: Chicago’s top tight end finally broke out of Jimmy Graham’s shadow and more than doubled his reception, receiving yards, and target totals in his sophomore season. That was a mini breakout of sorts since Kmet was far from a fantasy force during his rookie campaign. […]

Fantasy Football Breakouts, Busts, and Locks - Chicago Bears 2022 Outlook

“The Monsters of the Midway” moniker has not fit the Chicago Bears in recent years, especially on the offensive side of the ball. Chicago has not finished with a winning record since 2018, and their offense has been ranked 29th, 26th, and 24th in the NFL during those three subpar seasons. The Bears have given […]

2022 Fantasy Football Sleeper: DeVante Parker

 DeVante Parker traded teams, but he did not trade divisions this offseason. Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots attempted to upgrade their tight end and receiving corps during the 2021 offseason by throwing millions of dollars at the positions. While some signings worked out (Hunter Henry, Kendrick Bourne), others have been abject failures (Jonnu […]

Allen Lazard: 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper and Undervalued Wide Receiver

The Green Bay Packers receiving corps was wiped out during the offseason. Top target and perennial Pro Bowl receiver Davante Adams was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders for a treasure trove of draft picks, and big-play man Marquez Valdes-Scantling took his talents to the Kansas City Chiefs. Meanwhile, the Packers signed injury-prone veteran Sammy […]

D.J. Chark: 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper and Undervalued Wide Receiver

Urban Meyer may have turned Tim Tebow into one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of college football, but he did nobody any fantasy football favors when he “coached” the Jacksonville Jaguars last season. DJ Chark looked like he was going to be Jacksonville’s No. 1 receiver for several seasons after he posted a […]

Running Back PPR Rankings - Fantasy Football Tiers and Draft Analysis

The NFL might be a quarterback-driven league dominated by potent passing attacks and game-breaking wide receivers, but running backs still rule the roost in fantasy football. If you want to win in fantasy football, you need to know which running backs are on which teams, who is part of a committee, who is a one-man […]

Early Tight End Draft Rankings - Fantasy Football PPR Leagues

When is it way too early to worry about fantasy football rankings?  The answer is it is never too early. The tight end rankings for PPR fantasy football leagues are likely different now than they were when the 2021 season concluded, thanks to superstar quarterbacks changing teams and a couple of tight ends taking their […]

Allen Robinson Signs With Los Angeles Rams: Fantasy Football Impact

Allen Robinson’s 2021 NFL campaign was the disaster of all disasters, especially for the fantasy football managers who rostered him. Robinson had the worst season of his above-average NFL career. He missed games due to COVID and hamstring troubles, had quarterbacks who could not get their wobbly passes into his sure hands, and was stuck in […]

Best Landing Spot for Jameis Winston's Fantasy Football Value

Jameis Winston deserved a better ending to his 2021 season, just like fans of “Seinfeld” and “The Sopranos” deserved better endings to their shows. Winston was arguably on his way to one of the best years of his inconsistent NFL career, if not the best, in his second season with the New Orleans Saints. In […]

Biggest Tight End Breakouts of 2021 - Fantasy Football Year In Review

There were several tight ends who made their fantasy football general managers very happy during the 2021 season. While Kansas City standout Travis Kelce had another scintillating season, and Atlanta rookie Kyle Pitts showed the football universe why he will be a fantasy force for the next decade, there were many tight ends who had […]

Biggest Tight End Busts of 2021 - Fantasy Football Year In Review

The 2021 season was not kind to some of fantasy football’s top tight ends as not every highly-drafted TE put up the numbers Baltimore’s Mark Andrews did this season. Minnesota’s Irv Smith Jr., Green Bay’s Robert Tonyan, and Washington’s Logan Thomas all had their seasons ruined due to major injuries, and all three had the […]

Top Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 17: Gerald Everett, Foster Moreau, Cole Kmet, C.J. Uzomah, Austin Hooper
