Fantasy football analysis covering player value, rankings, draft strategy, trends, matchups, and the reasoning behind our calls.
Fantasy football rankings are useful. They’re also occasionally wrong. Like putting pineapple on pizza wrong. That’s where sleepers come in. For Week 5, we’re not looking for some random player buried at RB47 who needs a miracle to matter. We’re looking for players who are currently ranked outside the top 24 at their position but…
Week 5 is here, the bye weeks have arrived, and fantasy managers are officially rummaging through the pigpen for answers. Here are eight players where the matchup should make the decision easier. Start ’Em Jared Goff, QB, Lions at CardinalsArizona has been generous to opposing offenses, and Detroit brings one of the league’s best scoring…
Four weeks are in the books. By now, we know which fantasy football managers are contenders, which ones are pretending to be contenders, and which ones are refreshing the waiver wire at 2:00 a.m. while insisting they are “just looking.” Week 5 is where things start getting interesting. The injuries are piling up. The bye…

Saturday morning. The coffee is brewing. The fantasy lineup is open. And suddenly that player you were perfectly comfortable starting on Wednesday looks like the worst decision you’ve ever made. Welcome to the Saturday Morning Panic Meter. Every week, fantasy managers head to FantasyPros and ask the same question in approximately 7,000 different ways: “Who…
Apparently, fantasy football managers weren’t suffering enough. Week 3 arrived with its usual collection of touchdowns, terrible decisions, questionable coaching and last second field goals that left fantasy managers screaming at their televisions. Then the injury bug showed up and decided it wanted a piece of the action. De’Von Achane is done for the season….
Fantasy football rankings are useful. They are also wrong every week. That is why we don’t simply stare at a ranking and accept it as gospel. Rankings are a starting point. Usage, opportunity, matchup and game environment are where the real clues live. For Week 4, there are four wide receivers sitting outside the consensus…
Three weeks in, we finally have enough evidence to separate a fluke from a trend. Week 4 is where PigSkinFantasy starts trusting the data… but not blindly. START ’EM QB Bryce Young, Panthers vs. LionsYoung cooled off last week but still threw for 291 yards. Now he gets a Detroit defense that ranks 31st against…
Three weeks are in the books. At this point, your fantasy roster has probably done one of three things: Welcome to Week 4. The waiver wire is no longer just about finding the next breakout player.
