Dynasty Analysis
The waiver wire is an essential part of restocking your cupboard for later in the season.
S, Devin McCourty, New England Patriots
The ten-year veteran is off to one of his best starts to begin a season in his career. He’s leading the NFL interceptions (4) through the first four games of the season and has one in each game. This is the most he’s had in a season, since 2012, his third year in the league. While this pace won’t continue, I do expect him to continue to be an impact player in pass defense.
If you need some streaming options for Week 5, you’re in luck. Justin Karp has you covered below.
Welcome back to my streamers column. For each position, I will give two streamers that are under 40% owned. These ownership percentages come from ESPN’s at the time of writing, typically Sunday night or Monday morning. I’ll start with quarterback, followed by tight end, then D/ST. In both sections, the player listed first is my preferred stream and the second option is a backup if the first player is not available.Quarterback

Concussions seemed to be the injury du jour this week. Jarvis Landry and T.J. Hockenson were both unable to finish their games on Sunday after suffering one. After last week’s relatively quiet week on the quarterback injury front, Mitchell Trubisky was lost to a shoulder (left) injury and Josh Allen went down with a concussion. Besides the regular waiver wire recommendations, I’ll sprinkle in some dynasty advice this week, to spice things up a bit. Bye weeks also continue with two more teams off in week five, the Lions and Dolphins.
If you follow my Twitter, which you should do, by the way, you might know what some of the myths/realities are that I’m going to delve into in this article are. If that’s the case, great, you can get my more in-depth opinions on some of these takes. Feel free to send me suggestions for the future. I love answering your questions and talking sports. Anyway, the show must go on, so now it is time for us to look at some of the hottest of hot takes from the Internet. It’s my job to help you guys separate myths from reality, so we don’t buy into the wrong hype. This week I look at a couple of QBs who may be on their last legs, a rookie tight end who is being a labeled a bust. I dive into a few running backs and wide receivers too.
Welcome to part two of my weekly publication! As always, part one of this publication is my weekly picks against the spread, with a deep dive into three picks that I feel will provide a nice payout to bettors. In part two, I’ll be looking at three-player props that I think have a strong chance of paying out. This article will run the gamut and will include bets such as passing yard totals, the first player to score, and even total tackles for those who love Defense.

Each week I will recap the top performances by this year’s rookie defenders. Some are well-known names and others come out of nowhere. Rookies are highly coveted in the dynasty community, but their value can be very volatile at times. In this series each week, we’ll look at their numbers and what impact they have. I am also including their snap counts and percentage of snaps. These snap counts can tell us a lot about how much a player is being used and the opportunities they have to make plays. I like to target rookies that play 80% plus of the team’s defensive snaps. Let’s jump right into this week’s group.
It’s only Week 4 of the NFL regular season, and many fantasy owners are reeling in frustration because of injuries and under-performing players. Not to worry, the DFF team is here to help navigate through the madness and hopefully walk you off the ledge.
Every week this article identifies and breaks down a variety of players to consider in your DraftKings tournament lineups. While some of the plays may be on the safer side, I also include a number of high risk-high reward options as well. In GPPs the goal is always to figure out how to differentiate your lineup just enough to get away from the field and give yourself a chance at a big payday. Remember, more often than not there’s no need to get super-weird and roster an entire lineup of off-the-board plays, but rather to build a lineup with upside and then identify a low-owned player or two that has a chance to go off and jump you to the top of a large-field GPP.

I guess I lied about this only being a one-off, even though I did cut the length in half and these takes are from last week. However, before we begin, I have to say thank you. Thank you, injury gods, as cruel as you may be, for giving me content. All kidding aside, I wish every one of those guys a speedy recovery. Still, the show must go on, so now it is time for us to look at some of the hottest of hot takes from the Internet. It’s my job to help you guys separate myths from reality, so we don’t buy into the hype. This week we look at Joe Mixon, Dalvin Cook, Mason Rudolph and many more players garnering some hype.
Welcome to Episode 94 of the @DynastyTradesHQ Podcast! “#TradeAlerts, #TrashDynastyTrades […]
I will provide analysis on three bets that I feel have the best chance at netting you a nice payday. Whether it be due to matchups, injuries, or other factors, these are the three bets I feel the most confident in placing.
Baltimore Ravens
1 – Sack by Matthew Judon. That makes one sack in each game for Judon. Judon’s snap shares have been fantastic for a 3-4 OLB (80%, 80%, 85%).28 – Snaps played by Anthony Averett. Averett has not fully locked down the third CB job in Baltimore in the absence of both Tavon Young and Jimmy Smith. Averett only played 41%, behind Maurice Canady (46%) who was promoted from the practice squad before Week 2.
Allen Robinson, WRHe’s the best option in the passing game. Trubisky stares him down on plenty of plays. He’s averaging nine targets per game, good for 26.5% target share. Nobody else on the team is above 20%. Taylor Gabriel is outscoring Robinson for the year, largely because he’s probably caught 60% of his yearly touchdowns vs the Redskins. Even with the great Gabriel performance, Robinson commands 38% of the team’s air yards. It’s only a matter of time before Robinson starts to find the end zone and breaks out. If somebody is just box score scouting, I’d offer a late first pretty easily for him. He’s just entering his athletic prime, more than a year removed from the ACL tear, and getting awesome volume. Gobble up those shares.
OLB, Shaq Barrett, Tampa Bay BuccaneersThe five-year pro, from Colorado State, is one of the hottest names in IDP right now. In his previous four seasons, all with the Denver Broncos, he never had more than six sacks in a season. His career-best of five and a half came in his rookie season. After his rookie contract expired, the Broncos decided to go in a different direction. The Buccaneers stepped up and took a chance on him and signed him to a one year $4 million deal. The return for them so far has paid off big time!

This series will attempt to bring clarity to the goings-on, both on and off the field within each NFL Division so that dynasty owners can make the critical roster decisions during the NFL season to help them build toward their championships. Our writers will be grinding the tape and keeping up with the media buzz surrounding players, coaches and front office decision making so they can keep you equipped with the “nuggets” you need to succeed.
