I am a fantasy baseball and football fanatic. I've been playing for 8 years now and I like to think I learn more every year. I grew up a Yankees fan but came to appreciate the sport as a whole. Follow my Twitter for more sports updates @LopsidedTrades

Week 13 QB Waiver Wire Streamers: Alex Smith, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Matt Hasselbeck

For Week 12, Johnny Manziel was thrown out after he got benched for partying. Of the other two, Jameis Winston delivered a solid 15.5 points. Nothing flashy, but acceptable for a stream. Brock Osweiler was disappointing for most of the night, but saved himself with a touchdown and some decent yardage late. Still, has night wasn't […]


Somehow Matt Hasselbeck Keeps Producing

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 10% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Matt Hasselbeck is a 40-year-old quarterback who hadn’t been fantasy relevant since 2011. Yet, here he is with four wins and four double-digit fantasy games in four starts. It’s strange, but it’s working. The Steelers' pass defense looked terrible early in the season, and […]


Ryan Fitzpatrick Should Carve Up the Giants

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ryan Fitzpatrick is coming off of his best game of the season. He threw for four touchdowns and committed no turnovers against the Dolphins. On paper, his Week 13 matchup in a quasi-home game is even better. The Giants allow the most passing […]


Alex Smith Has Been a Model of Consistency

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 44% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Alex Smith continues to deliver solid fantasy performances-- Week 12 was his eighth straight week without a turnover. Now he gets a much much easier matchup with the Raiders, who give up the fourth most points to QBs. That continued this past week, as Marcus […]

Week 12 QB Waiver Wire Streamers: Jameis Winston, Brock Osweiler, Johnny Manziel

In Week 11, all three of my waiver wire streamers from last week's column reached double digits, but none of them really went off. I felt like Ryan Fitzpatrick really didn’t play well at all but he saved his day with a rushing score. On the opposite end, Alex Smith had a great game with […]


Week 11 NFL Matchups Analysis (Part 1): Start/Sit for Fantasy Football

Zach Wilkens breaks down the first half of the Week 11 matchups for the 2015 NFL football season. Be sure to also check out part two of this week's matchups analysis for the later games. Each week of the NFL season, we will be breaking down each of the NFL matchups and providing you with […]


Opportunity Arises for Mark Sanchez Once Again

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It’s Mark Sanchez time in Philadelphia. He played pretty darn good last season after taking over for Nick Foles. On the other hand, much like the Eagles as a whole this season, he didn’t look anything like last year’s version when he came on […]


Ryan Fitzpatrick Keeps Producing Despite Thumb Injury

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I was a bit scared off from Fitzpatrick’s thumb ligament issue, but he has continued to put up fantasy points in his past two games. Over the bye, he had surgery to repair the ligaments, but he is expected to play against the […]


Alex Smith Continues to Play Mistake-Free Football

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 40% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I’m hopping back on the Alex Smith train this week. Smith exceeded expectations against the Denver defense this week. Peyton Manning and Charcandrick West helped him out a lot -- but at the end of the day, he had solid points. He has […]


Week 11 QB Waiver Wire & Streamers: Alex Smith, Mark Sanchez, Ryan Fitzpatrick

Week 10 saw one big hit in Kirk Cousins and two misses with the rookie QBs. Jameis Winston did manage to get a late rushing touchdown. It saved his day from being awful, but it was still disappointing as far as my standards for this column. I gambled on Marcus Mariota, knowing I didn’t like […]

Brian Hoyer: The Ultimate Volume Based Fantasy QB

BALLER MOVE: Stream this week, Add in 2QB leagues OWNED IN: 20% of leagues ANALYSIS: After retaking the starting role partway through the Texans Week 5 matchup vs the Colts, Hoyer has delivered solid fantasy week after solid fantasy week. In four mostly full games since, Hoyer has averaged 278 yards with multiple passing touchdowns […]


Meet San Diego's Newest Starting WR, Dontrelle Inman

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 5% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Two injuries have left the Chargers precariously thin at the wide receiver position. With Keenan Allen already on IR and Malcom Floyd’s season in doubt after a shoulder injury, relatively unknown Dontrelle Inman is thrust into a starting role. This is definitely […]


The Saints Are an Enticing Matchup for Kirk Cousins

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 20% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Kirk Cousins struggled vs. the Patriots in Week 9 after I selected him as my deeper league QB. However, I simply can’t avoid recommending Cousins in Week 10 vs. the Saints. The Saints' defense has reached truly pathetic levels. Over the past three […]


Marcus Mariota Is Healthy and Playing at a High Level

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 43% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: This is a tough match-up for Marcus Mariota, but in a week where a lot of other QBs with similar ownership percentages have even worse match-ups (Tyrod Taylor in a short week vs. Jets, Jay Cutler vs. Rams, Alex Smith vs. Broncos), I […]


Jameis Winston Needs Some Help from His Teammates

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 38% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I think Marcus Mariota has received more recognition for some big numbers and a big OT win in Week 9. However, Jameis Winston has been extremely impressive himself. He now has four straight games without a turnover, while averaging 233 pass yards during […]


Week 10 Waiver Wire & QB Streamers: Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota & Kirk Cousins

Week 9 saw Tyrod Taylor deliver an acceptable performance. It wasn’t great, but I’ll take 15 points from a QB streamer any week. Meanwhile I should have expected it, but Kirk Cousins was disappointing. My options at 25% or less were Johnny Manziel, Blaine Gabbert and Matt Cassel. There was no chance I was starting […]


Cecil Shorts (WR, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: We’ve seen Nate Washington explode with an offensive outburst the last two weeks with Cecil Shorts out due to multiple injuries. Prior to that, Shorts had two games without Washington and had some solid numbers of his own. He had […]
