by Mike Randle, November 16, 2016

Whether you are fighting for a playoff birth or just fine-tuning your roster, it is important to examine the fantasy football playoff schedule. Fantasy championships are won by acquiring targets with friendly playoff schedule matchups.

You should be buying all San Diego wide receivers, but none more than Tyrell Williams. With a Workout Metrics Profile bonanza, Williams possesses the ideal fantasy trade characteristics: athletic ability tethered to an All-Pro quarterback.

Week 11 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Tyreek Hill & Ladarius Green

by Nathan Aucker, November 15, 2016

The RotoUnderworld Team provides ten players to target across fantasy football formats, including a mythical creature named Tyreek Hill.

After seeing 25 targets between weeks 5 and 6, Cameron Meredith has received a limited opportunity in the last three weeks with a total of 6 measly targets. I’m a Meredith believer and like him to join Tyrell Williams in top-24 WR status the rest of the way.

by Ray Marzarella, November 13, 2016

We offer four Sunday morning fantasy football pick-ups based on advanced stats & metrics profiles. Add Case Keenum, Peyton Barber, Roger Lewis & Vance McDonald before they become next week’s waiver targets.

Vance McDonald’s target share has risen exponentially since the 49ers made the switch to Colin Kaepernick. And even though he has the hardest projected remaining schedule among TEs, McDonald has the athletic profile to be able to overcome those odds if he continues to see heavy target volume.

DFS Dreamers & Fantasy Streamers: Contrarian GPP and Deep Sleeper Plays for Week 10

by Eric McClung, November 12, 2016

The memes make us laugh, but this week Jay Cutler is going to put up fantasy points against a Tampa Bay pass defense that ranks 20th in Football Outsiders DVOA. Defending the 6-3 Alshon Jeffery will be a challenge as the top three Buccaneers cornerbacks are all 5-10.

Very quietly, Tyreek Hill has caught three touchdowns over his last five games. As the most explosive receiver on the roster, he’s also been used in the backfield on occasion, totaling 51 rushing yards over the last three games. Chris Conley (quad) will also be a factor with Maclin sidelined assuming he’s able to play.

by Kevin McHugh, November 9, 2016

J.J. Nelson, Tyreek Hill, and DuJuan Harris are two small players with exciting advanced stats and metrics profiles indicating immanent fantasy football breakouts.

Darren Sproles ranks No. 10 among NFL running backs in Yards Per Touch, Targets, and receiving yards and has been his usual slippery, jitterbug self, and could provide some value down the stretch with an increased workload.

by Nathan Aucker, November 8, 2016

The waiver wire hunt ends with J.J. Nelson. The RotoUnderworld Team provides ten players, including Nelson, to target across fantasy football formats.

The SPARQ-y DuJuan Harris is an athletic player, who catches passes and was recently productive after an increase in opportunity. It is great to be alive in a ZeroRB world.

Brian Quick represents an ideal efficiency and schedule-driven pickup. A long-time favorite of the metrics community, whose efficiency metrics are at the top of the WR position, Quick has been steadily working his way into weekly flex consideration with four double digit games on the year.

Contrived Contrarian GPP DFS Plays of Week 9: Todd Gurley & Amari Cooper

by The Podfather, November 5, 2016

Play Blake Bortles in week 9 against Kansas City’s good-not-great pass defense (-7.6-percent DVOA) in the first week that fantasy experts are allowing Blake Bortles’ unsightly aesthetic to actually influence his fantasy football ranking.

Amari Cooper headlined week 8’s winning Millionaire Maker lineup on DraftKings.com. This week, Cooper’s match-up is significantly more challenging, but his tournament-winning upside is still present.

DFS Dreamers & Fantasy Streamers: Contrarian GPP and Deep Sleeper Plays for Week 9

by Eric McClung, November 4, 2016

Not only is Colin Kaepernick the top quarterback streamer this week at home against the woeful New Orleans Saints defense, he’s also a top-10 play at his position in the Player Profiler Weekly Player Rankings.

Aside from a big performance against the 49ers back in Week 3, Christine Michael has been lackluster in gaining yardage. This matchup against the Buffalo Bills is far from ideal, but the likelihood for double-digit touches makes Prosise more than serviceable in a streaming setting given the surprising availability.
