Week 16 – TE Rankings

Aaron Hernandez vs. Dolphins – With Rob Gronkowski having a record-setting season, it’s easy to forget that the Patriots have another talented tight end in Aaron Hernandez, but against the Broncos, it was Hernandez that had the big game. For the second time, this year Hernandez posted over 100 yards receiving and scored his first [...]

Week 16 – K/D Rankings

In light of the results from the Texans lose to the Panthers, and the Colts first win of the season, Houston’s week sixteen matchup in Indianapolis may not be a big blowout after all. No, the Colts didn’t find a passing attack last week, but their defense stepped up and made plays, as they rolled [...]

In the four games, Kevin Smith has played in this year, he has a yard per carry average of no lower than 4.8 yards in any contest. While Smith has been highly productive, his health and overall workload have been a problem as he’s carried the football only one game for more than seven times. [...]

Week 15 IDP – DB Rankings

Jason McCourty @ Colts – After suffering a concussion two weeks ago, it appears Jason McCourty will be active against the Colts this week, and that is disappointing news for those of you that picked up Alterraun Verner last week. Whether it’s McCourty or Verner, whoever is opposite Cortland Finnegan seems to be a worthy [...]

Week 15 IDP – LB Rankings

Sean Lee @ Buccaneers – A few weeks back it almost looked like Sean Lee would be lost for the season as he broke his wrist against the Philadelphia Eagles. At first Lee had a hard time playing with a cast, but it appears he’s finally found how to make things work, as he looked [...]

Week 15 IDP – DL Rankings

Terrell Suggs @ Chargers, Jason Pierre-Paul vs. Redskins – Last week had some massive days from defensive lineman but Terrell Suggs and Jason Pierre-Paul probably top the list in my book, and surprise, both have terrific matchups this week. T-Sizzle gets to face a busted up Chargers offensive line that is sure to give up [...]

Week 15 PPR – WR Rankings

Jabar Gaffney @ Giants – If you’re like me than you have a hard time buying into believing in Jabar Gaffney as an option to trust with your playoff life on the line, but Gaffney has earned WR-3 trust, with this play of late. While Santana Moss had the big touchdown reception last week, it [...]

Week 15 PPR – Flex-Play (RB,WR) Rankings

Maurice Jones-Drew @ Falcons – Count me in as one of the non-believers in Maurice Jones-Drew’s odds of performing at a high level this year. Coming off microfracture knee surgery in the off-season, I was concerned that Jones-Drew was likely to bust for fantasy owners down the stretch as was hard to imagine he would [...]

Week 15 PPR – RB Rankings

Steven Jackson vs. Bengals – If you look at the numbers, the odds of Steven Jackson being a trust-worthy option this week aren’t promising, as the Rams are one of the worst teams in football, and they will be matched up against a top ten run defense. In Jackson’s defense, the Rams offensive line showed [...]

Week 15 Start’em, Sit’em

Start’em Tim Tebow vs. Patriots – If you’ve been rolling with Tim Tebow weekly, this is going to be a great week to have him as the Broncos get set for a huge game at home against the Patriots. Maybe Tebow won’t have the success he had through the air a couple of weeks ago [...]
