Fridays are for Five Lists of Five! And it’s Week 5! Hot dog. Synchronicity, baby. We’re full of good energy this weekend. And we’re going to go win. Because, honestly—all I want is for you to be better than your friends. You’re going to be surrounded by them on Sunday, probably. How sweet would it […]

After logging a limited practice on Friday, Anthony Richardson ($6,000) (oblique) has been listed questionable on the team’s injury report ahead of their Week 5 matchup against the Jaguars on Sunday. Richardson left the Colts’ Week 4 matchup after taking two backbreaking hits on two carries on the same drive late in the first quarter. […]

Fridays are for Five Lists of Five! And, would you lookie there—it’s Week 5. Alliteration goes feral right now. I’ll be doing this for every week of the season. Think of these as byte-sized, two-minutes-to-yourself lists to scan during your weekend as you foam at the mouth for any competitive fantasy edge. As much relevant […]

All the Carson Steele hype during the offseason really buried the Samaje Perine lede, didn’t it? Fantasy managers everywhere were intrigued, to say the least, when Perine—a veteran receiving back—came to Kansas City to fill the Jerick McKinnon role. But Steele stole headlines in the preseason, and Perine’s name was largely forgotten. An season of […]

If we were making roster decisions simply based on palpable charisma, it’d be Legette in a boat race, here. But, unfortunately, it’s not, and both Xavier Legette and Jonathan Mingo are fantasy football ambiguities. They both ran the same number of routes last week.

We’re back for the Week 5 edition of Defense Start ‘Em/Sit ‘Em. As always—two for each category. Start ’em Indianapolis Colts D/ST (at Jacksonville Jaguars; 9.5% rostered) There is still value in this defense, even if they had a middling 7.0-FPT performance last week against the Steelers. They did, however, record four sacks and force […]
