FSH NOTEBOOK: (DFS) THE FAVORITE FIVE

September 23rd, 2023

Saturday Late-Evening Edition

(DFS) The Favorite Five

(Draft Kings)

My week two was a rough week for DFS picks. The Lions connection (Goff-to-St.Brown) fared well, but Travis Etienne Jr, Darnell Mooney (injured), and Adam Trautman all fell flat in week 2. The Chiefs decided to play good defense on the road and shut down Etienne, Mooney ended up pulling a now show, and Trautman became the forgotten man in Denver. 

Even when you’re down, you gotta look up and move on.

Now looking forward to NFL Sunday, Week 3 I am planning my redemption and huge bounce back with some strong plays. These are players that deserve Week 3 consideration.

QB-Trevor Lawrence ($6800) - I love this game as a great bounce back opportunity for Lawrence and company. Lawrence, currently the fantasy QB22, is home again this week and faces a Texans defense that is allowing a high 76.3 completion rate through the first two weeks. Lawrence and the offense were off last week against the Chiefs defense, but will look to get right in this one by taking advantage of the Texans deficiency in the Red Zone, 7 touchdowns allowed in 9 trips.

RB-Tony Pollard ($8000) - The Cowboys running back is currently the fantasy RB4 with 191 scrimmage yards and two rushing touchdowns. Through the team’s first two games Pollard has been heavily involved with 50 touches (25 avg/game), so I expect to see this continue on Sunday. The Cardinals defense has been stingy thus far in two games this season, but they have also allowed three total touchdowns (1 rush, 2 rec) to opposing running backs. I am betting on Pollard’s volume.

WR-Calvin Ridley ($7200) - I like this stack, Ridley paired with Lawrence on Sunday. Last week the two weren’t in sync, only connected twice for 32 yards on 8 targets. I am betting these two will get this corrected on Sunday and capitalize against the Texans secondary that allows the third highest rate of completion to wide receivers.

WR-Nico Collins ($5300) - Clearly Collins is greatly underpriced, which is our win. Through two weeks of action he ranks as fantasy WR7. Averaging 10 targets per game thus far this season, the volume is there for Collins to produce. I love the matchup in a contest where the Texans could be playing from behind and have to air it out more.

TE-Hayden Hurst ($3800) - The return of the “Red Rifle” (Andy Dalton) this week has me thinking check down and safely value. Enter Hayden Hurst, currently fantasy TE7. He’s more than a capable receiver, as evidenced in his week one outing where he was targeted 7 times, caught five balls for 41 yards and one touchdown. With Dalton under center, I see the tight end getting more usage on Sunday.

These are my favorite plays for Week 3.

That's my take!

Fantasy Football Week 3

Sit’Ems

My week 3 Sits for Sunday and Monday.

Looking ahead to this weekend, I have a list of players that I am not dropping (if on my roster) ahead of Sunday, but rather going to navigate around. Whether it is the effect of weather, dealing with an injury, or just a bad matchup, I am looking to avoid the following players for Sunday and Monday of Week 3.

QB-Joe Burrow (Bengals) - The Bengals signal caller, Joe Burrow is dealing with a calf injury and his status for Monday night is not looking good. He has yet to live up to the draft capital invested in him, so it is concerning to hear he is less than 100 percent and may not play. The Bengals are in the late window, so waiting for game-time status would be tough. Unless I hear anything to the effect of remarkable improvement, I am going to avoid this situation and sit Burrow.

RB-AJ Dillon (Packers) - With the latest reports indicating running back Aaron Jones could return this week, I am looking to avoid Dillon for the time being. Even with Jones out last week, Dillon slotted in at fantasy RB33. Even if Dillon is again the lead back this week, he’s facing a tough 13th ranked Saints run defense. Through two games Dillon has 28 carries for 74 yards for a career low average of 2.6 yards per carry. Sit him.

WR-Allen Lazard (Jets) - If you were anything like me, with quarterback Aaron Rodgers under center, Lazard seemed like a nice late round pick in fantasy drafts. With the loss of Rodgers (achilles), Lazard is no longer starter worthy. He’s barely worth rostering, but for now I will hold him for another week.

WR-Kadarius Toney (Chiefs) - It’s hard to stay patient with Toney. Through two games this season he’s just been bad. Too many drops, just six catches for 36 yards on 10 carries. The Chiefs matchup this week looks favorable, but after these first two games I just don’t trust Toney. With Patrick Mahomes as his quarterback, it is likely that he’ll get this turned around at some point and sooner than later, but for now he’s on my bench.

 

TE-Chigoziem Okonkwo (Titans) - The Titans tight end is off to a rough start (No.43 fantasy tight end) with just 4 catches for 35 yards in two games this season. The Titans are not a high volume passing team, so Okonkwo’s chances will be limited and with just six targets in two games, I’ll need to see a greatly improved target share before I can trust him in my lineup.

That's my take!

FSH NOTEBOOK: WEEK 3 FF START'EMS

September 23rd, 2023

David’s Daily Digest

Saturday Afternoon Edition

Fantasy Football Week 3

Start’Ems

My Week 3 Starts for Sunday and Monday.

This week has a number of nice matchups with the probability of a lot of points, from the Charger & Vikings game, to the Lions & Falcons game, to the Eagles & Buccaneers game,and finally the Rams & Bengals. It’s hard to not get excited about the amount of offense we could see this weekend. With all that excitement, fantasy owners want to make sure they have the right players in their lineups on Sunday. These are some of the players I am most excited about and will have in my lineups (redraft, Dynasty, or DFS) this weekend & Monday.

QB-Kirk Cousins (Vikings) - The Vikings signal caller has been money for fantasy owners through two weeks. Cousin currently ranks as fantasy QB1, passing for 708 yards and throwing six touchdowns in two games. This week the Vikings are home and will play host to the Chargers. Cousins will take his shot at a Chargers defense that has allowed 712 yards passing (most allowed) and the most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. He’s a must-start.

RB-Najee Harris (Steelers) - Through two games this season, by the eye test Harris has not looked good, but the numbers tell a different story. Harris has only rushed for 74 yards this season without a score, and caught 3 passes for 2 yards receiving. The silver lining, in his limited usage through two games he is averaging 4.6 yards per carry. This matchup on Sunday against the Raiders sets up as a great opportunity for Harris to get going. The Raiders defense ranks 29th against the run allowing better than 5 yards per carry. Start Harris.

WR-Michael Pittman Jr (Colts) - The Colts leading receiver Michael Pittman Jr is currently the fantasy WR12. In two games this season Pittman has 16 receptions and 153 yards receiving on 23 targets. He is the teams go-to receiver and this Sunday I expect the team will look his way often going up against a Ravens secondary that has allowed the 2nd most receptions to opposing wide receivers. Even with Anthony Richardson out this week, (Gardner) Minshew to Pittman works. Start Pittman and get him in your DFS lineups too.

WR-Tank Dell (Texans) - While most of the attention has been on wide receiver Nico Collins (warranted), fantasy owners should also be paying attention to Tank Dell. Quietly the rookie receiver has been working his way into fantasy relevance, currently slotting in at fantasy WR29, good enough for WR3/flex consideration. Dell has 10 receptions for 104 receiving yards with a receiving touchdown. He’s got a nice matchup this week and should be in lineups-start him.

TE-Hunter Henry (Patriots) - I am rolling the dice with this one, third time's a charm. Henry has been the top fantasy tight end the past two weeks, can he make it three in a row? I am not banking on that factor, but I do believe with such a juicy matchup Henry will produce. Henry faces a Jets defense that has been vulnerable in the Red Zone allowing two receiving touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season. Start Henry, again.

That's my take!

FSH NOTEBOOK: FRIDAY'S FANTASY FIXX

September 22nd, 2023

Friday Afternoon Edition

Friday’s Fantasy Fixx

(Week 3)

(Week 3: Favorable Matchups)

We are two weeks into the 2023 season and there is plenty of data to review and consider, snap counts, targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns. The sample size this season is still small, but it’s enough of an indicator for the probability of outcome and that’s enough for me to take a look ahead at the matchups for this Week 3 weekend. With a potential shootout in Minnesota and to a possible barn-burner in Tampa, these are some of my favorite matchups and plays for Sunday.

QB-Desmond Ridder (Falcons) - After a slow week one, the Falcons quarterback rebounded in week 2 finishing as fantasy QB12. This week Ridder is on the road, but faces a promising matchup against a Lions defense that has allowed the 5th most fantasy points, along with the 7th most rushing yards to opposing quarterbacks. Ridder was solid in week two using his arm (237 yards passing, one passing touchdown) and his legs (39 rushing yards, one rushing touchdown).

 

RB-Javonte Williams (Broncos) - It’s way past due time for the Broncos offense to start leaning more on the run game. Williams has been quiet through the first two weeks, but he only has 25 carries through two games. The Dolphins defense has shown it is vulnerable against the run (ranked 30th) allowing more than 5-yards a carry. Williams should get his shot this week and could be in line for his best output this season.

WR-Jordan Addison (Vikings) - The rookie has had some flash this young season, scoring in both of the Vikings first two games. This trend will be tough to continue, but I like this matchup and his chances of posting solid week 3 numbers. Through two games his snap share count is over 60% and he has just one fewer target than fellow Vikings receiver KJ Osborn. This will be a matchup where the Vikings will have to air-it-out and Addison could see a slight boost in his target share, enough to put him in flex play territory.

WR-Chris Godwin (Buccaneers) - The Bucs face a tall task this Sunday when they square off with the Eagles. The Eagles bring a lot of firepower into this matchup, so Baker Mayfield and company will have to bring the noise in this one. Last week it was Mike Evans with the huge effort, but wide receiver Chris Godwin still had 8 targets. Through two games Godwin has seen a total of 14 targets, a steady average of 7 per game. With this type of usage, facing an Eagles secondary that has not been healthy this season, Godwin should be able to take advantage of a defense that has allowed the 6th most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers.

TE-Dalton Schultz (Texans) - The Texans tight end has been less than steady and unspectacular through two games (currently fantasy TE31). Schultz has only recorded 6 receptions for 38 receiving yards on 11 targets through his first two games, but this week he’s got a chance to be productive. Schultz is coming off a game in which he was targeted 7 times and this week he’ll face a Jacksonville defense that has allowed the 6th most receiving yards and fantasy points to opposing tight ends. The Texans tight end has a real chance at being a borderline TE1/TE2 this week.

These players may already be locked into your lineup and they may not, but if they are sitting on your bench and you are facing a start’em dilemma consider these plays for Week 3. I guarantee nothing and offer even less, these are just my predictions about their respective week 3 matchups and outcomes for this weekend. 

Strong plays to consider for DFS as well.

That's my take!

FSH NOTEBOOK: THURSDAY NIGHT MATCHUP

September 21st, 2023

David’s Daily Digest

Thursday Afternoon Edition

Thursday Night Matchup: DFS Faves

This one is definitely not a Clash of the Titans, with the New York Giants hobbling into the bay area to square off with the Niners. The G-men will be without their lead-running back Saquon Barkley (ankle injury), who has already been ruled out.

In my best estimation for fantasy purposes, this matchup has a strong possibility for the following, a strong performance from the Niners offense and a lot of garbage time yardage for running back Matt Breida and tight end Darren Waller. The only question could be how long will they remain in this affair before they get pulled.

Like most, I like Christian McCaffrey because he figures to be involved early and often, but I also believe the Niners will attack the Giants defense utilizing several of their other weapons. Quarterback Brock Purdy should be solid and I like him to hook up with several of his favorites tonight.

My Fantasy Five for Thursday night;

1.49ers Defense (DST) - The Giants come into this matchup wounded and without their best player, running back Saquon Barkley. It could spell for a long night for quarterback Daniel Jones and offense. The Niners defense will look to get after Jones in this one and could post a number of sacks and even create a turnover or two. (DK-My Captain)

2.Brock Purdy (QB) - The Niners quarterback could be in for a big night. Even with one of his favorites (Brandon Aiyuk) possibly sidelined in this contest, he has more than enough fireworks to work with. If Aiyuk sits, expect Brock to spread the ball around to his backs and tight end.

3. Christian McCaffrey (RB) - The Niners running back figures to be a big part of the offense tonight, but if Aiyuk is out expect CMC to help pick up the slack in the passing game. This matchup looks like a good one for a score or possibly two.

4. Darren Waller (TE) - The Giants tight end looked healthy last week turning in his best game of the young season with 6 catches for 76 yards on 8 targets. With Barkley OUT for this one tonight, you have to believe Jones and company will make Waller a focal point of the pass game.  . 

5.George Kittle (TE) - The Niners tight end could see his workload in the passing game increased tonight in the possible absence of Aiyuk. Kittle has only 6 receptions for 49 yards receiving through two weeks, ranking as fantasy TE26. I like his chances for a productive night.

That's my take!

Targets Equal Opportunities

Nothing has changed here. In fantasy football luck will always play its part, but success is all about chances and opportunities. You can’t win if you don’t have the ball and your dudes can’t score fantasy points if they don’t have a chance.

Here are the weekly leaders for Receiving Targets;

Week 2

Top 5 WR

1. Puka Nacua (20)

2. Christian Kirk (14)

3. CeeDee Lamb (13)

4. Justin Jefferson (13)

5. Mike Williams (13)

With his 13 targets, Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb was highly efficient hauling 11 passes for 143 yards receiving, finishing as the fantasy WR7 for the week. His week 2 performance elevated Lamb to the fantasy WR12 for the season.

Top 5 TE

1. Travis Kelce (9)

2. TJ Hockenson (8)

3. Mark Andrews (8)

4. Darren Waller (8)

5. Evan Engram (8)

6. Zach Ertz (8)

Once again, the Vikings tight end TJ Hockenson was among the target leaders at the position. With an ample volume of chances over the first two weeks, Hockenson has cashed-in for fantasy owners and sits atop the fantasy tight end perch in the number one slot. 

Top 5 RB

1. Kyren Williams (10)

2. Jahmyr Gibbs (9)

3. Tony Pollard (8)

4. Saquon Barkley (7)

5. Three tied at (6)

The Rams running back Kyren Williams for the moment appears to be the featured three-down back contributing both in the run and the pass. In the first two weeks of the season, Williams is tied for the most targets for the running back spot. His 29 carries also rank tied for 13th among all running backs this season.

Touches Are Fantasy Gold

Just like a receiver needs to be targeted, a running back’s success leans heavily on how many times they touch (carries + catches) the rock.

Here are the weekly Touch Leaders;

Week 2

Top 5 RB

1. Tony Pollard (32)

2. D’Andre Swift (31)

3. Derrick Henry (28)

4. Four at tied at (23)

The Cowboys running back Tony Pollard led the way in week two with 32 touches and through the first weeks of the 2023 season his total of 48 touches has him sitting at fantasy RB4, total fantasy points (ppr).

That's my take!

FSH NOTEBOOK: THE WAIVER WIRE

September 19th, 2023

David’s Daily Digest

Tuesday Evening Edition

The Waiver Wire

With two full weeks in the books, it’s time again to take a look at those rosters and check out the Waiver wire. With several significant injuries this past week and your championship hopes on the verge of being derailed, it might be time to work the wire and make the magic happen.

Week 3 Waiver wire options;

RB-Matt Breida (Giants) - With Saquon going down in week 2 and expected (although not ruled out yet) to miss Thursday night, running back Matt Breida looks to be the next man up. Breida is a career 4.8 yards per carry guy should fill the role fine in the short term. He may not be featured like Saquon, but he could be a low-end RB2/Flex option for the time being. Barkley isn’t expected to be out too long, so go get Breida if you have the need.

RB-Jerome Ford (Browns) - Following the very unfortunate season ending injury to Nick Chubb, Ford stepped in and did more than a commendable job. Ford carried the ball 16 times on Monday night for 106 yards and added 3 catches for another 25 yards. He also added a receiving touchdown finishing the week as RB6 (ppr). Odds are he won’t finish that high by season end, but he certainly looks like a guy he could be a borderline RB1/RB2.

RB-Jaylen Warren (Steelers) - This pickup, if Warren is available in your league, harbors on the fact that running back Najee Harris has just been ineffective the first two weeks of the season (74 rushing yards in two games). As Harris continues to lumber, Warren will continue to see his workload increase (10 touches on Monday night).

WR-DeVante Parker (Patriots) - Right now Parker is a fix for the flex spot in deeper leagues, but he should be owned. He has the talent to be a solid WR2 if he can stay healthy (11 games missed the past two seasons). Parker was targeted 8 times on Sunday night and pulled in six passes for 57 yards.

WR-Tutu Atwell (Rams) - With all the talk deservedly surrounding Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua, quietly Atwell has made a case himself to be owned in fantasy leagues. After a week one stat line of 6 receptions for 119 yards, he followed that up with 7 catches for 77 yards this past Sunday. Atwell has been targeted 17 times over the first two weeks of the season. With that kind of volume he remains in the flex mix every week.

TE-Zach Ertz (Cardinals) - The fantasy tight end position can look like a wasteland at times, when you are checking weekly results. It becomes a tough spot to find production. But everyone knows before you have production, you must have that volume of opportunity. Over the past two weeks Ertz has been targeted 18 times. He’s also on the field plenty (72.4% snap share) for those opportunities. If you are streaming tight ends, it’s time to grab Ertz (11 receptions for 77 yards in 2023 - currently fantasy TE9.

A few more notables to consider and at the very least should be on your bench, if not already owned include, (WR) Josh Reynolds, (WR) Tank Dell, (WR) Jayden Reed, (RB) Zack Moss, (WR) Marvin Mims Jr, and (RB) Tony Jones Jr. These players could become steady contributors down the stretch. 

Others that could be in the cards down the road to provide some depth relief for the coming bye weeks and are worth watching now include (RB) Damien Harris, (RB) Roschon Johnson, and (WR) Chase Claypool.

Check your leagues for availability and good luck in week 3.

That's my take!

Tuesday Afternoon Edition

Fantasy Football Wins!

(NFL Week 2)

I am going to have bad picks and I’m going to have some good ones too. It’s just the nature of this game, so here are my week 2 picks that hit.

Jared Goff (QB) - The Lions quarterback was sizzling for most of the Sunday afternoon, with the exception of one glaring pick-six mistake. The rest of his day he produced 323 passing yards and tossed three scores. He finished as fantasy QB8 for the week. 

James Cook (RB) - The Bills running back turned in his first big Sunday of the 2023 season, finishing the week as fantasy RB11. Cook was solid carrying the ball 17 times for 123 yards and added 4 receptions for another 36 yards.

Amon-Ra St.Brown (WR) - The Lions wide receiver was solid, but not spectacular. He turned in a serviceable 6-catch, 102 receiving yards effort, good enough for fantasy WR34 for the week. Not quite wide receiver one territory, more like a solid flex play, but that’ll work for fantasy purposes.

Tee Higgins (WR) - Following a week one dud, the Bengals stud receiver came to life in week 2. Higgins posted a big donut in the team’s season opener, but on Sunday he was spectacular. Higgins caught 8 passes on 12 targets for 89 yards receiving with two touchdowns, finishing the day as fantasy WR4.

Deebo Samuel (WR) - Coming off a quiet game in week one, you just knew Deebo would be featured (11 touches on Sunday) and he delivered. Deebo totaled 101 scrimmage yards and added a touchdown, finishing as the Week 2 fantasy WR12. Of course he did.

Hunter Henry (TE) - Two weeks in a row Henry has been the top pass catching option at tight end. This seems hardly sustainable for the duration of the season and since he was unlikely drafted as your starter in your league, he (or your original first tight end pick could be a high sell.

Cam Akers (RB) - This one seemed predictable to me, considering some of the off-field issues the team dealt with last season. Although Akers seemed to have turned things around in the latter half of last season, it seems now maybe all of the issues did not get resolved. In any case, the Rams seem to be moving on, as should fantasy owners for the time being.

Pat Freiermuth (TE) – Another predictable outcome with this pick. The Steelers offense was bad in week one and for the most part (with the exception of the Pickens score) they were bad last night. Freiermuth recorded one catch for two yards on a single target on Monday night.

The season is early and there’s a lot more football to be played. This list will grow. 

That's my take!

FSH NOTEBOOK: FANTASY FOOTBALL WHIFFS

September 19th, 2023

Tuesday Morning Edition

Fantasy Football Whiffs!

(NFL Week 2)

I am going to have good picks and I’m going to have some bad ones too. It’s just the nature of this game, so here are my week 2 picks where I whiffed.

I just didn’t love Pickens on Monday Night

George Pickens (WR) – Without a doubt, this was my biggest whiff. Don’t get me wrong, I love Pickens this season, I believe he’s the real number one in Pittsburgh. With another tough matchup against the Browns, following the disastrous start in week one, I was expecting much. To put his MNF performance into context, without the 71-yard TD catch, his line looked likes; 3/56/0 on 9 targets. Sometimes it just takes one.

I thought Mooney was money.

Darnell Mooney (WR) - I’m not really sure what happened here with Mooney. He did leave the game early in the second half with a knee injury, but in over 30 minutes of football he did not have a single target and he was only on the field for 15 snaps (seems low). 

I thought Trautman would score.

Adam Trautman (TE) - So much for the injury to the Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich, meant nothing towards Trautman’s workload in the passing game. With Dulcich out (placed on IR), Trautman recorded just one lone target. Bust.

I expected another strong game.

Travis Etienne Jr (RB) - The Jaguars running back was completely held in check on Sunday, just rushing for 40 yards on 12 carries. This was not the expected outcome in week 2 after finishing as the No.6 fantasy running back in week 1

With a home game I thought he would play well.

Trevor Lawrence (QB) -.Much like the whole Jaguars offense on Sunday, Lawrence pretty much laid an egg at home against the Chiefs. After a strong week one showing Lawrence only completed 53.8% of his passes with zero touchdowns in week 2. He was the No.27 fantasy quarterback.

I figured he’d fall flat facing a ferocious pass rush.

Russell Wilson (QB) - I didn’t expect to see this on Sunday, Wilson finishing as the No.3 fantasy quarterback. At times it wasn’t pretty and throughout it was rough. Wilson was sacked 7 times on the afternoon, but when he wasn’t on the ground he posted 308 yards passing with 3 touchdowns and added 56 rushing yards. It was a nice stat line, but greatly overshadowed by the stunning week two loss at home.

I thought it would be all Jeudy.

Courtland Sutton (WR) - His numbers on Sunday don’t jump off the paper, 5 grabs for 66 yards, but his double-digit fantasy points output (ppr) fared much better than expected.

That's my take!

September 18th, 2023

Monday Evening Edition

NFL Sunday Week 2:

Sunday’s Heroes

A big day of production on Sunday for these fantasy heroes and studs. If you had any of these performers in your lineup this week, you are likely in a good spot to secure a week two win. But it is fantasy football, so there are no guarantee.

QB, Daniel Jones (Giants) - The Giants quarterback Daniel Jones used his legs as well as his arm to dig his team out of a 21 point hole in week 2. Down 28-7 in the 3rd quarter, Jones went to work. Jones passed for 321 yards on the day, completing 26 of 37 passes (70.3), tossing two scores and rushing for a third, leading the Giants all the way back for the win. Jones finished the day as the No.1 fantasy QB.

RB, Brian Robinson (Commanders) - Robinson played a big role in his teams come-from-behind win on Sunday. Trailing by 18 points late in the 1st half, Robinson and company jumped into high gear. Robinson led the way on the ground rushing for 87 yards on 18 carries, with two rushing touchdowns, and a critical 2-point conversion. He would also contribute in the passing game with a couple of grabs for 42 yards receiving. The Commanders ball carrier was the RB1 fantasy running back on Sunday.

WR, Keenan Allen (Chargers) - The Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen was targeted often in week 2 (10 times) and produced big numbers. Allen pulled in 8 balls for 111 yards receiving and two touchdown receptions to pace the Chargers receiving game. Allen finished the day as the No.1 fantasy wide receiver.

TE, Hunter Henry (Patriots) - The Patriots tight end was once again big in the pass game on Sunday night. Henry was targeted six times and caught six passes for 52 yards and his second receiving touchdown for the season. Henry finished as the top fantasy tight end on Sunday and after two weeks he is currently the number two fantasy tight end overall through two weeks.

IDP, Micah Parsons (Cowboys) - The Cowboys young linebacker was special on Sunday, causing chaos and wrecking havoc in the Jets backfield. Parsons collected 4 solo tackles, including three tackles for a loss, two sacks, 4 quarterback hits, one pass defense, one forced fumble, and a fumble recovery. He finished as the number one fantasy IDP player on Sunday.

That's my take!
