BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 5% of Yahoo Leagues
ANALYSIS: Cleveland Browns running back D'Onta Foreman didn’t play in the team’s Week 1 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. However, the veteran running back was productive last week, totaling 14 rushing attempts for 42 yards and 5.6 half-point PPR fantasy points. He played 38% of the snaps in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, while Jerome Ford played 44%.
Foreman isn’t an elite running back, but he has been solid for fantasy players in the past. Last year, he was the RB7 from Week 7 through Week 10, averaging 15 fantasy points per game. While Ford remains the lead back, Foreman could have flex value in Week 3 if he has the same role as last week.
The Browns face the New York Giants and their awful run defense on Sunday. New York has allowed a top-7 explosive run rate, rushing yards per game, and yards after contact per attempt this season.

Fantasy players should add Foreman off the waiver wire and consider starting him as a low-end flex option this weekend.

Mack Hollins (WR, BUF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 11
BALLER MOVE: Don't Add ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's still not a good idea to use a waiver claim or even a bench spot on Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins. He caught all four of his targets for 86 yards last week, but that performance was the exception rather than the rule […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The waiver period has passed, but Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards is still only rostered in 20% of Sleeper leagues.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeMario Douglas once again led all Patriots wide receivers in receiving yards this past Sunday. New England has been maddeningly inconsistent with their wide receiver usage. However, the one constant has been Douglas. He looks like the team’s best pass catcher […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Legette is coming off a bit of a disappointing game Sunday against the New York Giants.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For weeks it has been speculated that Estime would get more touches in Denver’s offense.
