Matt Ryan has been money for fantasy owners all season and should be well set up to keep making you dollars this week. The other side of his matchup might present an even higher ceiling, though. While that game draws primary focus, there's another high-upside clash worth studying on the opposite side of the country as well as some RBs who should be more expensive than they are. Here are the picks: QB ... 2:08 RB ... 6:06 WR ... 11:47 TE ... 17:44 Flex ... 20:51 D/ST ... 22:35 Check out all of Ja...

Have we really come to a point where Cardinals-Giants is the most attractive offensive matchup? Only 1 game carries a higher over/under for NFL Week 7. There will be key injuries to watch for the Rams, Packers, Saints and Ravens. We've got some defenses looking much better than they did just a few weeks ago and some QBs looking much more iffy than they did in recent contests. Here's the rundown: Los Angeles Rams at Atlanta Falcons ... 1:33 Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills ... 7:35 Jacksonville J...

Are you mad about how little Packers RB Aaron Jones played on Monday night and how even littler he did for your fantasy football lineup? Well, we've got bad news for you. On the positive side, a savior of an offense just might have emerged in Week 6, while another young QB has started delivering on the promise we've touted for months. We're also sorting through waiver options and potential TE plans if you just lost Will Dissly. Here's the rundown: The Kyler Murray bubble ... 00:57 What to do wh...

Stefon Diggs is fuming. The Browns and Buccaneers might be blooming. The Cardinals face a nice matchup down 2 receivers.
