Is it possible Keke Coutee was just mismanaged by a terrible coach? Sure, absolutely. It’s also possible his wounds were self-inflicted. Once he entered the doghouse no one on the team stuck their neck out for him. The range of potential outcomes are vast, but this is an add now ask questions later game.

This oft-injured San Francisco offense is starting to get healthier, which will help lead to more scoring opportunities for Jordan Reed to take advantage. Above all else, he looked the part early this season and he looked it again before the bye.

Salvon Ahmed is a viable starter for at least the next three weeks, and given how his skill-set complements Myles Gaskin, he could continue to be useful even after Gaskin returns.

Are we in the process of righting a previous wrong? Or have the last three weeks been the outlier? This is where I am with Curtis Samuel. Right now. My thoughts on the talent is not much different than when ...

These sort of "add before the competition thinks about it adds" are quickly coming to an end as we round the corner on the bye weeks; this is one of the last chances for a proactive acquisition.

Jalen Reagor checks the athleticism boxes and in the areas of the game in his control he thrives. Why didn't it lead to more in the box score? Well, there's only so much one can do when just 61% of his targets are deemed catchable.

While Dobbins may not be available right now, there's a good chance that changes in the immediate future, so save your waiver priority for this week's first run and see if he becomes an option later in the week. That's the shark move for Week 7 - your patience will be a virtue.

Saturday's blowout win over San Francisco was the first time that Matt Breida hit that double-digit touch number this year, so why am I recommending adding him? In this game you don't want to be relying on waiver priority to get a player after he becomes an obvious add, like Mattison this week; you need to get in before it happens.

We now know that Chase Edmonds is not the takeout burrito you were prepared for in 2019. He’s better than that; with volume he’s something you want as much of as you can get your hands on. He’s been simmering, developing flavor for long enough.

After A.J. Green's struggles in the first two games, he not only saw his target share dip below the rookie, but he also ceded the red zone looks as Higgins pulled in two scores from inside the five-yard line. It's now clear that the changing of the guard has taken place.

Joshua Kelley is a 5'10 215 pound downhill accelerating tank of a human being. He is a former walk-on that had to earn his work the hard way at UCLA. He uses his size combined with those special acceleration skills to win at the point of contact.

Shenault is a rocked up 6'1 227 pound wing-back hybrid wide receiver/running back that was the Jaguars 42nd pick in April's draft and was one reason why Jacksonville shipped Leonard Fournette out shortly before the season began.

Rather than occupying my bench space with old veteran options I prefer to take a couple shots on players with a very low probability of hitting, but if they do, then it could be a home run. I don't think there is a more worthwhile candidate this year than Cordarrelle Patterson.

The biggest fantasy personnel move of the 2020 offseason was no doubt the trade that sent superstar wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins to the Arizona Cardinals. But there was a flip side to that move — as part of their compensation, ...

In each of the past two seasons, a second-year quarterback has taken the NFL (and fantasy football) by storm. Is Kyler Murray the Next Second-Year Fantasy Sensation at QB? That is the question.

Every year about this time I provide a brief primer on potential stashes for next season, so this week I'm focusing on those shots for next year. At this point, your lineup is what it is.

Trust and chemistry; it’s the foundation to any relationship. You didn’t have it with your ex, which is why he/she is now your ex. James Washington didn’t have it with Ben Roethlisberger in 2018 either. Rumors abounded during the summer ...

The biggest issue with Benny Snell for the remainder of this season is game script. Can the Steelers play from ahead? This is the risk in going down the well with him and even with a change at quarterback the concerns will remain.

Most owners don’t want to hear any complaining from Travis Kelce and Hunter Henry owners, but with both of them on bye this week their owners have the same predicament this week that most of their competition has dealt with all season.

Deebo Samuel got his nickname from a bad character from the 1990's movie, Friday. In that movie, Deebo was the enforcer of the neighborhood. Samuel earned that nickname from the way he plays, like an angry dog.

We are reaching that time of year. No, not the time for the playoff push nor plotting out your starting lineup for the playoffs. We've reached handcuff theft season and there are several different worthwhile darts to throw, including Alexander Mattison.

The Redskins travel to Buffalo this week before going on bye and all reports indicate Guice intends to return after the bye week and the Redskins only have incentive to deploy him to his full extent. Week 11 will present the perfect opportunity to give Guice the keys and evaluate him for next year’s purposes.

The Detroit Lions starting Running Back Kerryon Johnson will be out ‘some time’ according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Given his substantially long injury rap sheet this injury of unknown severity to his right knee carries with it additional baggage. It’s ...

Will Darrell Henderson help fix all of the Rams problems? Simple answer is that he won't. That said, he's a different dynamic and that's exactly what this offense needs right now. The string of losses offers any push McVay may have needed to explore potential changes.

David Johnson injured his back. No, we have no idea how significant or not of an injury it actually is. The important takeaway is that it is a back injury. This is why you’re prioritizing Chase Edmonds – that unknown.

We’re just a quarter way into the regular season, but Ronald Jones’ play to date is making it difficult to argue anyone else should be the lead back in Tampa Bay.

You already know, but just to establish a baseline – Saquon Barkley has a high ankle sprain and according to reports will be out four to eight weeks. Since it’s seven weeks until their bye I’m operating under the assumption he will be out until after that bye week.

Welcome to Week 1 over-reaction. The NFL season is short, which drives a wild September waiver wire every year. You have drafted starters already out multiple weeks, bench fliers that didn’t do anything last weekend, and are looking at a ...

If we take Mike Williams’ 2018 receiving numbers and extrapolate them out over a full season of 100 targets, he would have ended the season with 1,003 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns. Any player who could average a touchdown a game is definitely someone to target.

While you’re sitting on the clock in the mid- to late-rounds in your draft rooms this summer contemplating which WR to take, I want you to take a moment and really consider “Mr. Anderson” (said in my Agent Smith voice for all you Matrix fans out there) over the other WRs left available to you .

In the first start of his NFL career, Keke Coutee announced his arrival loudly. In Week 4 of the NFL season, Coutee debuted with 11 receptions on 15 targets for 109 yards. He went on to bookend the start of ...

Welcome back, friends and family. It seems like it’s been an eternity since we last met up. A lot has happened – Le’Veon Bell won the war by losing a season’s worth of battles, Tom Brady won yet another championship, Larry Fitzgerald continued to not age, and Thanos was finally defeated.

Look for Prescott to take full advantage of his riches this season, as he will have a Top-3 fantasy quarterback finish this year. I have him rated as my No. 1 overall breakout player for fantasy football this year.

Despite still playing the quarterback position at a high level through his late thirties, Roethlisberger's fantasy stock took a huge hit this past Spring, as disgruntled star receiver Antonio Brown was shipped to the West Coast in a trade with the Raiders.

While part of Mariota’s struggles can be attributed to injury, the 25-year old signal caller’s overall consistency when on the field still leaves much to be desired, having scored fewer than 14 fantasy points in 40 percent of his 55 career starts.

While Kirk Cousins' inaugural season with the Vikings wasn't exactly a smashing success from a real-life perspective (the Vikings missed the playoffs), he did prove useful for fantasy owners, finishing as the overall QB11.

During the offseason, Baker Mayfield's interim offensive coordinator to close out 2018, Freddie Kitchens, was promoted to head coach, while the team brought in air raid specialist Todd Monken (the overseer of Tampa Bay's league-leading passing offense last season) to serve as the new OC.

Cam Newton ended up being shut down for his team’s remaining two contests, and reportedly underwent arthroscopic surgery on his shoulder this past January, making it the second time in the past two years Newton has needed an operation on this throwing arm.

The 2018 NFL regular season has concluded, so it’s time to briefly examine the state of each team’s skill positions for fantasy purposes with an eye towards next season and/or beyond. I will be reviewing each team in the reverse order of the final standings. Next up ... Washington.

Heading into the 2018 season, Houston defensive tackle Ed Oliver was considered one of the leading candidates to be the No. 1 overall pick in this year’s draft. After a lackluster, injury-marred season in which the 6-foot-2, 287-pounder managed just ...
