We are getting down to the nitty-gritty for the fantasy football regular season. Just like with the NFL, every decision gets bigger and bigger in determining how the fantasy season will go. Start the wrong player and a three-point differential could be the difference between playing for a championship or Read more
There’s no hard and fast rule to mastering fantasy football. Some will say your fortune is determined by luck, but that has little substance at all. Getting proficient at fantasy football means undertaking research, following trends, listening to expert analysis and then predicting upturns in form and performance. Along the Read more
The Running Back landscape looks much different than it did 3 weeks ago. Bell and Foster are out for the season, Forte is out for at least a game or two, and preseason studs like Lacy and Hill continue to struggle. Production from the RB spot has been extremely difficult Read more
We are officially halfway through the NFL season as it turns into week 10. This week instead of being a downer and talking about some more injuries in this open, I am going to take a different road and look at what has gone right this season. Based on ESPN’s average Read more
It is a tough week for fantasy owners. A lot of injuries and a lot of players missing with a bye are going to lead to some pretty ugly fantasy scores. This week brings to the table the question a lot of people have on draft day. Should you pay Read more
The focus of this weeks column is on the Quarteback and Tight End. There were some truly epic QB performances this week, highlighted by the Brees/Manning duel in New Orleans. On the flip side, there were also a few massive duds. Roethlisberger disappointed in his return game, as did Matthew Read more
If you are reading this article, thank you. If you are not I will be under the assumption you are curled up in a ball crying. This was one of the worst weeks for injuries that I can remember, and because of those injuries this will be a big Read more
This week the bye week is relatively light, and I am sure fantasy owners are fine with that. The biggest names owners will be missing this week, in terms of year to date performance, are all Jaguars. While it is a good thing that many owners have the majority of Read more
The last three weeks, I have attempted to rank two offensive positions at once in an effort to turn the rank lists over every other week. I was a little too ambitious. This week, I will be focusing exclusively on the Wide Receiver position. Next week will be Quarterbacks and Read more
If you have a playoff spot all but locked up, congratulations. Now that we are beyond the halfway point in the fantasy football regular season you are in an interesting situation. At 7-0 or 6-1 it could be time to trade away your valuable depth in order to upgrade Read more
The bye weeks are here in full force for week seven. Aaron Rodgers, Randall Cobb, James Jones, Eddie Lacy, Demaryius Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, Andy Dalton, A.J. Green, Giovani Bernard, Jeremy Hill, Tyler Eifert, Matt Forte, and Alson Jeffery (that was longer than I expected) are all missing this week because Read more
Since receivers were the focus of last week’s column, we are back on RBs and QBs this week. Disappointing performances and a couple of key injuries have significantly changed the RB landscape over the last couple weeks. As the season moves along toward its midpoint, we will start labeling the Read more
Almost a third of the teams in the NFL have had their bye week to this point. If you are struggling at 0-6, 1-5 and potentially 2-4 you might have to start exploring the opportunity of trading players on their bye weeks for a slight downgrade in order to not play Read more
It is here. We are pretty much at the halfway point in the regular season for fantasy football. Many of the hours we spent looking at player X against player Y during the summer are now meaningless. With five weeks in the books we can no longer look at what Read more
Since the focus was on QBs and RBs last week, it is time to look at the pass catchers. There are many young exciting receivers and tight ends in the midst of breakout seasons, while a few of the old reliables have started to decline. We have had quite the Read more
This weeks buy low/sell high features a lot of Packers with how the offense has performed the past two weeks. When entering the trade market you need to decide if what you are seeing, reading, researching, etc. is a trend or an anomaly. I think it is safe to say Read more
It looks like I am starting to get the hang of this whole start and sit thing. Last week I went 15-8-5 in my picks which has me hovering right around 50 percent on the season. I said I wanted to get 75 percent of the games that might have been Read more
I am going to change things up a little bit this week. Everybody does a waiver wire column and pickup recommendations are readily available on most every site. Here at Fantasy Assembly, we strive to be different. Instead of producing yet another waiver wire column, I am going to take Read more
This is the first buy low/sell high article of 2015. If you have been playing fantasy sports you should know that trading is an important part of building a championship team. Trading in fantasy sports is similar to the stock market; you want to sell stocks (players) when you think Read more
Two weeks of making picks in the books and the results are getting better although they aren’t where I would like them to be yet. The big standout from last week was recommending Devonta Freeman as a start, while recommending that you sit Matt Ryan maybe wasn’t the best idea. Read more
