Sweet Fantasy – 69 Things: Week 1
Chris Sweet - Senior Fantasy Analyst: The Wagner Wire Your Sweet Fantasy is back and I'm bringing you 69 thoughts, facts, and musings from a mostly ugly Week 1 of fantasy football. Alex Smith has a large chip on his shoulder. Kareem Hunt is going to be a problem for opposing fantasy owners. Travis Kelce is not Gronk...he's better than him. Tom Brady will be just fine. I want to own Brandin Cooks this week in New Orleans. Chris Hogan is not a suitable replacement for Julian Edelman. The Top 5 Fantasy QBs in Week 1 were Alex Smith, Sam Bradford, Matthew Stafford, Trevor Siemian, and Derek Carr. At least 3 of them won't have a better week all year. Minnesota's
Sweet Fantasy – Week 13 DFS Value Picks
Chris Sweet - Senior Fantasy Sports Analyst: The Wagner Wire My loyal subjects, Your King Sweet Fantasy is back to find some values in a full Week 13 slate of 15 games. Week 12 treated me well and I went a little contrarian with my cash lineup. I took Philip Rivers as my QB coming off a terrible performance the week before. Nobody wants to back a guy that just got smoked the week before but sometimes that can work to your advantage. Rivers was less than 4% owned in all of my contests even though he had one of the best match ups of the day. So don't be afraid to use a QB this week that looked bad last
Sweet Fantasy – Week 11 DFS Value Picks
Chris Sweet - Senior Fantasy Advisor - The Wagner Wire Week 10 was one to remember. The Wagner Wire took the DFS Players Conference by storm and hung out with the Big Boys. Not to mention fellow TWW Analyst, Dave Zidek, played more than Just The Tip, and placed 2nd in a large tournament. Week 10 is in the books though so let's put all the crazy upsets behind us and start looking forward to Week 11. Surprisingly there are some great values this week to be had if you look in the right places, and you will notice a theme in the QBs section. There are some better options north of $6,000 on DK but that is my cutoff for QBs so I will

Bryce Harper and the Washington Nationals will be playing in Coors Field, and Clayton Kershaw is on the bump in Oakland. So without further ado, lets tap into The Wagner Wire.

The Wagner Wire – Top 5 NFL Fantasy Quarterbacks: 2015
NFL is back fantasy champions! So we need to breakdown the top quarterbacks in the NFL and give my projections. I've won 3 out of the past 5 years in traditional fantasy football leagues and I believe it is because I see what most fantasy grinders do not. So without further ado, my top five quarterbacks. 1. Andrew Luck Its not all luck! Number 12 for the Colts has the skills that kill. He shredded NFL defenses last season, posting outstanding numbers consisting of a 40 TDs and 16 INTs. He threw for 4,761 and rushed for 273 yards, adding 3 more rushing TDs to his total. Luck and the Colts aim to expand on these numbers with key additions of Andre Johnson and

What is up fantasy champions? We're playing the 7:05 pm ET slate today. We have another fantastic lineup for you tonight. With the MLB trade deadline quickly approaching, key players have been on the move and it appears more are to come. I love Cargo tonight, but the Rockies are adamant on dealing him before Friday.

Infielder - Prince Fielder $ $3,900 Prince has awesome numbers against Capuano (0-4, 5.64), hitting .364, with 2 HRs and an OPS of 1.364.
