Tim Tebow, Josh Freeman Work Out For NFL Teams

On Monday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Philadelphia Eagles are working out ex-Broncos and Jets quarterback Tim Tebow. Tebow, who drafted by the Denver Broncos with the 25th overall pick in the 2010 draft, has had nothing short of a whirlwind career. He played in only nine games his rookie season, starting three before […]

Eagles, Rams Swap Foles, Bradford

On Tuesday, ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter was the first to report that the Rams have traded quarterback Sam Bradford to the Philadelphia Eagles for quarterback Nick Foles. The deal will also include the Eagles sending their 2015 fourth-round pick and a 2016 second-round pick to St. Louis, with the Rams giving Philly a 2015 […]

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 […]

If you’re needing a boost heading into a tougher round two matchup, I’ve got the best guys to stream this week at the QB spot. Let’s get […]

Teddy Bridgewater (QB, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Keeper Leagues OWNED IN: 20% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Over two months ago, I wrote about Bridgewater, claiming that at the very least, the rookie out of Louisville could be owned in long-term keeper leagues that were deep enough for an owner to stash him. Bridgewater has not yet been spectacular, oftentimes […]

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 […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as Streaming Option for Week 14 ANALYSIS: Coming off of an incredible Week 13 performance, Fitzpatrick is primed to have another big day facing a mediocre defense. I am in no way promising another six-touchdown performance from the Harvard product, but Fitzy has some serious starter potential this week, coming in as a low-to-mid QB1. […]

Teddy Bridgewater (QB, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add for Week 14 (Streaming Option) ANALYSIS: It seems to be a staple in my streaming options to pick a QB that’s throwing against the Jets porous secondary. This week, the lucky QB is Teddy Bridgewater. If you’re desperate, Bridgewater is a low-end QB1, high-end QB2 this week based on the matchup. The […]

Week 14 Quarterbacks: Waiver Wire Pickups, Sleepers, Streamers & Rankings

The fantasy football playoffs are upon us, RotoBallers, and it’s time to prep you on QBs to stream for your playoff matchups if that's what you're looking for. With no byes from here on out, we'll be able to get the most out of streaming QB options in Week 14. I'm going to run down on your […]

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues OWNED IN: 68% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Ryan Tannehill has improved his completion percentage and quarterback rating in each of his three years in the NFL, and could be headed for the first winning season of his young career. The 26-year-old signal caller for the Dolphins has posted a completion […]

Josh McCown (QB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Week 12 Streamer ANALYSIS: At the beginning of the year, I had high expectations for the former backup to Jay Cutler. He had all the weapons, the starting contract, and the offensive prowess. It was as though the stars had aligned for McCown, and I had him very high on my […]

Kyle Orton (QB, BUF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Week 12 Streamer ANALYSIS: There are a number of reasons to give Orton a start this week outside of the fact that he has a great matchup facing the Jets. For example, Orton has only thrown three picks since he became the starter. His passer rating has only […]

Robert Griffin (QB, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Startable in all 2-QB leagues this week and deep 1-QB leagues as well OWNED IN: 61% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Griffin has never been a guy I’ve trusted in fantasy. He’s too injury prone, but coming off of a bye in week 10, I think he has some dependability this week. Even with an extremely minimal […]

Teddy Bridgewater (QB, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues / Stream for Week 11 OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: My commentary on how bad the Bears defense has been will start and end here: on average, the Chicago Bears give up 277 passing yards per game (ranked 23rd), just over two touchdowns per game (ranked […]

Mark Sanchez (QB, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues (Bye Week Fill-In) OWNED IN: 33% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This recommendation may not sit well with some of you, as Mark Sanchez does not bring great memories for fantasy owners. However I want you to hear me out: (1) There are 6 teams on bye week and finding available QBs is difficult; (2) The […]

Austin Davis (QB, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues (Bye Week Fill-In) OWNED IN: 17% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Coming off of his worst performance on the season, Davis is definitely a guy most are ignoring this week. I can look past his poor Week , but hat I can’t look past is his matchup for the week. Davis is definitely […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Stream in Week 10 (Bye Week Fill-In) OWNED IN: 79% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Flacco is owned in a majority of leagues, but he's still sitting out there on some waiver wires. He should definitely be started in Week 10 against Tennessee, especially with all the byes. After the Week 11 bye, Flacco […]

Mark Sanchez (QB, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 2 QB Leagues / Deeper 1 QB Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With Nick Foles out for at least the rest of the fantasy season, Mark Sanchez will step in as the quarterback of one of the best fantasy offenses in the NFL.  With only Matt Barkley as a backup, look for […]

Derek Carr (QB, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues / Deeper 1 QB Leagues (Week 10 Streamer) OWNED IN: 16% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Broncos will definitely beat the Raiders this week. That said, the clearly lopsided matchup could be a reason to give Carr a start. With the Raiders playing from behind, Carr will have certainly […]

Brian Hoyer (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Start him in 2-QB leagues, but set him aside in 1-QB leagues this week. Owned in 23% of leagues on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Brian Hoyer is a a guy I can’t seem to emphasize enough, as he is ridiculously consistent. He will put up a respectable point total again this week in a matchup with a miserable […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Start in all 2-QB leagues, as well as deep 1-QB leagues Owned in 23% of leagues on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I know. You might all be saying, “But Nathan, Fitzy hasn’t thrown for over 300 yards once this year! And he has seven interceptions on the year! How can I trust him?” Simply put, […]

Alex Smith (QB, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Stream in Week 9 Owned in 50% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: In recent weeks, Alex Smith has been quietly impressive in nearly all of his performances. While many of us get distracted with the works of Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, and Ben Roethlisberger, the 30-year-old QB has been excellent in […]

Teddy Bridgewater (QB, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 16+ Team Leagues and All 2QB Leagues for Week 8 21% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It’s been a rough couple of weeks for Teddy Bridgewater. In three starts, he has managed just one passing touchdown against five interceptions. Fortunately, the Vikings face a truly awful Bucs team in Week 8. The only worry here is […]

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 12+ Team Leagues for Week 8 50% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ryan Tannehill has now had three straight decent games in a row. While the Jaguars are not the guaranteed points they were at the beginning of the season, I would start Tannehill with confidence. He has been over 240 yards and […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues in Week 8 Owned in 76% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco has played excellent football of late, racking up ten TDs in the last four weeks while only throwing three INTs. Excluding a lackluster performance at Lucas Oil Stadium in week five, Flacco has bolstered his fantasy value by […]
