Week #3: Upgrades & Downgrades (Preview)
Michael Nazarek - 9/20/2026
During the season, I highlight specific players due to their recent performances on the field of play. The three categories are listed below. Upgrades are players on the rise. If you own these players you should either hold them and start them or look to trade them if they are playing way over their head. Downgrades are sliding players. If you own these players, you should consider benching them until they turn their performances around or consider waiving them if you can’t trade them and they’ve gone completely in the tank. Steady-Eddies are consistent fantasy producers, both good and bad. Start or look to acquire the good. Bench or waive the bad. Let’s take a look at what comes to mind after week #2…

Testimonials
-- Michael Barnes
"I began using FFM in the late 1990s. For 20+ years they were an extremely valuable resource, as I enjoyed great success in my league during that period. Unfortunately, my league came to an end during the Covid years, and I stopped subscribing to FFM. After a year without Fantasy Football, I started looking into online sports betting and quickly realized FFM could again become a valuable source of information for prop bets on individual players. I resumed my subscription with FFM and have not looked back. FFM is clearly a dual threat; they can severely increase your odds of success in both fantasy leagues as well as prop betting. I almost feel guilty with the tremendous returns I get from such a modest investment in FFM."

"I'd like to thank Fantasy Football Mastermind for all their great information this year. I was in five leagues this year. I made the playoffs in four of the leagues, had the best record in three leagues, went to the championship in three leagues."

"After being cheap for a couple seasons - and having the results to show for it - I subscribed again last year and promptly won my league. You guys do an excellent job. I love the Tiering approach - it really makes it easier to figure out the best way to make good value picks."
