Kenneth Gainwell (RB, PHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It was easy to envision factors aligning favorably for Gainwell which would eventually propel him into an ongoing role in Philadelphia’s offense. He can burst for significant yardage due to his acceleration as a runner, and also possesses the ability to operate as […]

Latavius Murray (RB, BAL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 55% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Murray appeared primed to seize a consistent role within New Orleans’ reconstructed offense, as the Saints entered the regular season with an attack that was highly deficient in dependable receiving weaponry. That seemed to provide Sean Payton with the incentive to deploy Murray […]

Tony Jones Jr. (RB, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 21% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jones was signed as an undrafted free agent by New Orleans in 2020 but was limited to five offensive snaps during the season. He also remained firmly outside the fantasy landscape throughout nearly all of the offseason. But his performance during the preseason […]

Mark Ingram II (RB, HOU) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Texans head coach David Culley was included on Baltimore’s staff from 2018-2020 (assistant head coach/passing game coordinator/wide receivers coach) and maintains an excellent relationship with Ingram. But the nebulous nature of Houston’s overcrowded backfield did not present a reason for optimism that Ingram […]

Tony Pollard (RB, DAL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 54% of Leagues ANALYSIS: There has been a massive overreaction to Ezekiel Elliott’s reduced workload during the Cowboys' Week 1 matchup in Tampa, and this is not a suggestion that Pollard will usurp Elliott’s RB1 responsibilities with Dallas.  The Cowboys were facing a Buccaneer run defense that allowed a […]

Devontae Booker (RB, NYG) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Seven backs were selected prior to Saquon Barkley during the majority of drafts, which was a byproduct of the concerns that surrounded both his health and his environment. Barkley’s exceptional rookie season (2018) remains embedded in the consciousness of all managers. However, he has missed 17 […]

James White (RB, NE) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (higher priority in PPR leagues) ROSTERED: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: White’s availability in over three-fourths of all leagues is arguably the most surprising aspect of this week’s waiver wire breakdown. His role as New England’s pass-catching specialist from the backfield remains fully intact. However, he is still attainable […]

Tony Pollard (RB, DAL) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 57% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Pollard will enter his third season having demonstrated the capacity to perform effectively as both a rusher and receiver. He displayed those capabilities last season while attaining a 36% snap share from Weeks 8-17. Pollard averaged 7.8 attempts, 36.2 rushing yards, and 2.8 […]

Latavius Murray (RB, NO) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~115 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~132 ANALYSIS: Sean Payton’s specific blueprint for redesigning the New Orleans offense remains highly uncertain as the Saints enter Week 1 without Drew Brees under center. However, the Saints will be navigating through the regular season with a dearth of proven receiving weaponry beyond Michael Thomas and Alvin Kamara. We knew this […]

Gus Edwards (RB, BAL) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~50 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~89 ANALYSIS: Edwards enters his fourth season with a role that is both defined and secure. He has found a role operating as a key cog in a Baltimore offense that has demonstrated a steadfast commitment to the ground game. The Ravens paced the NFL in run play […]
