Last week saw its fair amount of craziness — more than its fair share, some might say — with some random scoring occurring across all fantasy-relevant positions. The tight end spot saw some new names emerge among the top scorers, with players like Michael Mayer, Brenton…...

Bjorn Yang-Vaernet examines which players on the waiver wire are worth prioritizing for Week 7 and highlights others to preemptively stash. Sometimes the waiver wire article is filled with guys who should be targeted because their usage has changed based on performance. In other weeks, the waiver wire article is a column spelling out who benefits from injuries. This week’s waiver wire article is (unfortunately)…...

The more plays a team tends to run, the more players on those teams tend to score. Using the RotoViz Pace Tool, we can see the tendencies of every team in these areas so far in 2023.
