Josh Allen Looks To Make First Start Count rotoballer.com Sat 9/15/18 6:54 PM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen will make his first career start Sunday against the Chargers. The rookie will face a secondary that got torched last week by Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Even though it's Allen's first start, he did play last week going 6-for-15 against the Ravens. It's also worth noting the Chargers will be without Joey Bosa again, a huge plus for the Bills relatively weak offensive front. On paper it appears to be a good first start for the rookie. However, I would[...]

Bench Your Bills? LeSean McCoy and Kelvin Benjamin Outlooks rotoballer.com Fri 9/14/18 2:00 PM

Insane blowouts can be fun when you're not a fan of either team, but sometimes it reaches a point where you just feel bad. That's how it felt watching the Ravens obliterate the poor, poor Buffalo Bills 47-3. Beyond the real-life ramifications of things like "How on Earth did they start Nathan Peterman?" and "Josh Allen can't possibly be worse," there is a lot to unpack here on a fantasy basis. Specifically, we already need to have our finger hovering over the panic button when it comes to LeS[...]

Wide Receiver Depth Chart Changes - Week 2 rotoballer.com Fri 9/14/18 1:00 PM

There are a number of reasons for wide receiver depth chart changes, and they aren't always neat and logical. However, after Week 1 things did break down fairly easily in terms of moves up and down depth charts. As a result, the analysis in this article will be broken into three major sections. First, is the practical depth chart that we saw based on Week 1 snap count and targets. Second, we will work through injuries that could affect depth charts in Week 2. Finally, we'll take a look at ho[...]

Week 2 Rankings Analysis - Nick Mariano vs. ECR rotoballer.com Fri 9/14/18 12:05 PM

Welcome, one and all, to the weekly piece that puts my rankings under the microscope and gives me a chance to explain myself against the Expert Consensus Rankings (ECR) found on FantasyPros. I did decently in Week 1, scoring 29th out of ~130 experts, but if I'm going to beat my 9th place finish from '17 then I've got work to do! I'll be examining my own ranks against the ECR on a position-by-position basis, as the overall and flex tabs can simply get insane with every position folded in with [...]

Week 2 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football rotoballer.com Fri 9/14/18 11:55 AM

The first week of the NFL season is in the books! We learned all kinds of cool things last weekend, including the fact that Ryan Fitzpatrick is the greatest quarterback of all-time, that Matthew Stafford might as well change his last name to Peterman, and that having Alvin Kamara, James Conner, and Tyreek Hill all in the same lineup is a very, very good thing. Last week's bust list had a decent hit rate, but I really got Patrick Mahomes wrong, y'all. I didn't like the matchup and I really did[...]

Rookies Worth Your Attention in Week 2 rotoballer.com Fri 9/14/18 11:43 AM

In this column each week, we will look at rookies who have either performed well the previous few weeks or who have a favorable matchup in the upcoming week. These may be high-profile names or under-the-radar depth players; the only thing that matters is that they are first-year pros ready to make a name for themselves. Ideally, a lot of the names on this list will give some much-needed depth to fantasy teams. Injuries happen and by the time fantasy playoffs come around, depth is absolutely e[...]
