Why A.J. Green Is Still An Elite WR1 And A Draft Steal

A.J. Green is in my list of tier one receivers. For me it’s not even a question, Green is elite and deserves to be in there. I will acknowledge that my list of tier one receivers is deeper than it’s ever been this year at eight, and he’s definitely in the lower half of those […]

Why Bengals Running Back Jeremy Hill is Undervalued in 2015

Cincinnati Bengals running back Jeremy Hill had a fantastic rookie season. As a result, he is being drafted in the mid-2nd to early-3rd range in early mock drafts. That seems like a pretty fair ADP for a guy with just 16 games of experience and even fewer as a starter. He’s already being drafted ahead of […]

Why Kenny Stills is a Big Time Sleeper in 2015

Kenny Stills was just 22 last year but managed an impressive season. According to Pro Football Focus he ranked third in the league in catch percentage (minimum 50 receptions). His 14.8 yards per reception was the most of anyone with at least a 70% catch rate. The only other players that had at least 14 yards […]

Kendall Wright (WR, TEN) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target ~100 Overall in PPR Leagues, ~150 Overall in Standard Leagues CURRENT ADP: 161 STD, 117 PPR ANALYSIS: None of the Titans' three quarterbacks last year -- Jake Locker, Charlie Whitehurst and Zach Mettenberger -- had a completion percentage that ranked in the top 25. It’s hard for any receiver to succeed under those circumstances. In […]

Don't You Sleep on Bengals Wide Receiver Marvin Jones in 2015

You may recall that heading into 2014 there was a considerable amount of hype for Marvin Jones. It was hard not to like Jones coming off a 51-712-10 line highlighted by an 8 catch, 122 yard, 4 touchdown performance against the Jets at the young age of 23. Jones also impressed with 8 receptions for […]

2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper: Wide Receiver Kendall Wright

Last year I wrote about Kendall Wright as a wide receiver likely to see an increase in touchdowns following a 94 catch season with just two scores. He ended up having a more than respectable six touchdowns on 57 catches. Unfortunately the touchdown increase was just about the only improvement in Wright’s numbers last years.  […]

Week 16 Fantasy Football Rankings for Championship Week: Standard and PPR

  Week 16 Fantasy Football Rankings Congrats on making it this far in your playoffs! For most this is the fantasy football championships, the Super Bowl of fantasy football, the moment you've all been waiting for.

Week 16 Championships: Waiver Wire Sleepers & Pickups for the Playoffs

Once again, if you're reading this congratulations on making it this far! More than likely you have a great fantasy football team at this point and don't need to worry about waivers too much, but I know there are certainly some playoff teams with a weak spot or two that are still in the running. […]

Week 15 Fantasy Football Rankings for Playoffs: Standard and PPR Leagues

  Week 15 Fantasy Football Rankings Congrats on making it this far in your playoffs! For some this is the first week of the playoffs but for many others it means you've managed to win at least one playoff match if you are still in the hunt. That means this week is the most important […]

Ronnie Hillman (RB, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: C.J. Anderson has locked down the starting job in Denver and rightly so, as he's played great over the past few weeks for both the Broncos and his fantasy football owners. That said, I'm still owning Hillman in a couple leagues just in case. Anderson has been a little hobbled, […]

Johnny Manziel (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues / Week 15 Streaming Option Week 15 vs Bengals, Week 16 @ Panthers ANALYSIS: Yes, Johnny Football is finally the starter right now in Cleveland, as Hoyer was looking really bad and was on a short leash. Adding Manziel would be a savvy move that offers a ton of upside at […]

Packers Defense (GB, DEF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues Week 15 @ Bills, Week 16 @ Bucs ANALYSIS: The Packers aren’t an elite defense but you have to acknowledge that nice fantasy playoff schedule. I have a hard time seeing either of those teams keeping up with the Packers high flying offense. When they are inevitably forced to throw down […]

Ravens Defense (BAL, DEF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues Week 15 vs Jags, Week 16 @ Texans ANALYSIS: This defense just lost Haloti Ngata and you can’t underestimate that loss on the defensive line. Thankfully they face two of the weaker offenses in the league the next two weeks and should still be a strong play. I am a […]

Top Sleepers & Waiver Wire Pickups for the Playoffs (Weeks 15-16)

If you've made it this far into the season, congratulations! Its not easy getting into the playoffs and once teams get there, many owners don't bother scouring the waiver wire to make adds they probably won't use. As we've saw with Brandon Marshall this week things can change quickly and you want to make sure your […]

Johnny Manziel (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Monitor / Add as Streaming Option for Week 14 ANALYSIS: First off, be aware that Manziel may not even have the starting job. Browns coach Mike Pettine said he would make his decision by Wednesday between him and Brian Hoyer. If he is the starter he makes a great fantasy play regardless of his actual QB […]

Latavius Murray (RB, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: I was really looking forward to how Murray would fare against the Rams, but unfortunately he was unable to recover in time from his concussion. He will almost definitely be back for his Week 14 matchup, but it’s not a great one. The 49ers have only given up one rushing […]
