The final week of the fantasy football regular season is here! For many managers, it’s a must-win week in order to make the playoffs and/or improve their seeding in the bracket. Having a half-dozen NFL teams on bye complicates an ultra-important fantasy football start ’em, sit ’em picture. When it comes to the running back position, the threshold feels very slim this week. Maximizing production from players with favorable matchups and offensive roles will be paramount to success. As a reminder, players like Saquon Barkley, Alvin Kamara and Bijan Robinson will still be started in lineups weekly. It’s the RB2…

With Thanksgiving having come and gone, it is now appropriate to reference Christmas in conversation. So with that, let me publicly acknowledge that my wish list to Santa this year will include a request to never have the NFL schedule a half-dozen teams to be on bye the week before the start of the Fantasy Football Playoffs ever again. I mean seriously, talk about impeccably bad timing! Hopefully, your team is sitting in a solid position to make the playoffs already in advance of Week 14. If not, fear not. Whether you need a bye week fill-in or are looking…
Happy Thanksgiving! Ah yes, the most glorious day of the year has arrived and it brings a jam-packed week of football with it as always. Seriously, what is better than a day devoted to stuffing our faces full of incredible food? Just make sure not to take too long of a nap afterward because the Fantasy Football Playoffs are just two weeks away, so we must also stuff our lineups full of points! As injuries and pesky committee backfields continue to cloud the outlook, making the right fantasy football start ’em, sit ’em calls at the RB position requires diligent…
With three Thanksgiving Day games and no byes, there is plenty of NFL action to sink our teeth into this weekend. It also makes Week 13 one that fantasy managers should be grateful for, considering that it is sandwiched between two late-season weeks with a half-dozen teams on bye. We got through one of those already and will worry about next week’s chaos when it arrives. For now, let’s enjoy the plentiful spread of fantasy football Week 13 streamers options available to us at the defense position. Of course, some may prove to be safer bets than others, and we…
On paper, Week 12 looked like a lame-duck NFL slate. In some ways it was. In others, it actually exceeded expectations. Meanwhile, on the fantasy football front, the action only continues to get hotter with the playoffs now just two weeks away in the majority of leagues. If you are among the many managers fighting for their playoff lives, making savvy fantasy football waiver wire pickups could be all the difference. Even if you are already sitting pretty in the standings, make sure to shore up that bench depth now and be glad you did later! As always, managers are…
These days, you can get insurance for just about anything. To my knowledge, fantasy football teams are not one of those things (although it wouldn’t surprise me if it was a thing). While you may not be able to get a quote on your roster, you can get a full team consultation courtesy of FlurrySports! You can also do the fantasy football equivalent of an insurance policy by pursuing the best fantasy football RB handcuffs on the waiver wire and in trade deadline deals! Knock on wood, star running backs have largely avoided season-ending injuries in 2024. However, there is…
It’s a tough week when it comes to fantasy football start ’em, sit ’em due to six NFL teams being on bye. It certainly doesn’t help that it is Week 12 and the push towards the Fantasy Football Playoffs is as heated as ever. As far as running backs are concerned, several managers will likely be facing some difficult decisions with the likes of Breece Hall, Bijan Robinson, James Cook and Chase Brown all on bye this week. Choosing the right players to fill out your lineup could make or break your entire season, so it’s important to make weel-researched…
There are a half-dozen NFL teams on bye this weekend which means that fantasy football Week 12 streamers will be in high demand across all positions. It’s kind of perplexing that so many bye weeks were backloaded on the schedule like this, but I digress. After all, there’s no time to ponder or complain when we have Fantasy Football Playoff spots to try and clinch! When it comes to this week’s defense streamers, the methodology is very simple and highly matchup-based as we look to fade some of the league’s most suspect offenses. Pick the right fantasy football streamer option…
The Fantasy Football Playoffs commence in just three weeks. For most leagues, trade deadlines will come to pass this week. The excitement is real all across the fantasy landscape. Well, except for the Week 12 fantasy football waiver wire pickups. You would think the waiver wire would bring the juice at such a pivotal point in the season, but that isn’t exactly the case. While it may be an underwhelming week regarding waiver options, managers are still encouraged to do their due diligence and take any opportunity to upgrade their roster. Hopefully, some of the players below can help you…
