Week 11 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis
After eleven weeks of NFL action we’re dangerously close to the fantasy playoffs. By now you’re likely either in it or mathematically eliminated so I would assume that you’re still fighting for a playoff spot if you’re reading this. You’re going to see some playoff analysis sprinkled into the game-by-game breakdowns alongside the usual injury […]
Shaun Draughn is Drawing Some Flex Appeal
BALLER MOVE: Add in PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 12% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Draughn is showing surprisingly good PPR value as he's caught four and eight receptions in his last two games. Although the yardage and touchdown totals promise to stay low, he's becoming a potential every-week FLEX option as he handles three-down duties for the Blaine Gabbert-led […]
Grab Tevin Coleman While Freeman Recovers
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 46% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: There was so much hype surrounding Tevin Coleman leading up to this year's fantasy drafts. It was clear he wasn't the right fit for Kyle Shanahan's scheme - but the highlight-reel-making player was viewed highly and was even given the starting job […]
Spencer Ware a Great Injury Replacement
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Spencer Ware is a big "who?" kind of name. One of the best non-NFL employed talent evaluators, Matt Waldman, wrote in depth about Ware, and stated when Ware entered the draft that he could be a great NFL-caliber back. Well, in about two […]
Javorius "Buck" Allen the Back to Add in Baltimore
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 10% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Forsett out for the year, Javorius Allen is likely to get first crack at the job - if it doesn't turn into a committee. I make that distinction because Allen wasn't a college player that seemed like he'd make a successful NFL […]
FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 12 NFL Waiver Wire Targets: Thomas Rawls, Buck Allen, Jameis Winston & More
While Week 8 was still the biggest fantasy football graveyard week for injuries, Week 11 was certainly no picnic either (and Monday Night Football has yet to go, bubble wrap your players). Pickups become more of the handcuff variety as most people who are going to break out or get a chance to break out, […]
Thomas Rawls a Must-Add
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 31% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Rawls faces the unfortunate issue of having Marshawn Lynch on his team. If Lynch returns, Rawls likely loses all value because of the Seahawks showing nothing regarding putting Lynch on the bench in favor of him. Rawls is still a must own in […]

Week 11 Boom and Bust Candidates: Carson Palmer, Marshawn Lynch, DeAndre Hopkins, & More
Depending on the type of league you’re in, there are only three to four weeks left in the fantasy football regular season. If you’re sitting pretty at 10-0, 9-1, 8-2 or even 7-3, you probably have little to worry about, as the playoffs are basically a guarantee for you. For the other 80 percent of […]
FanDuel Picks for Daily Fantasy Football Week 11: DFS Lineup Advice and Sleepers
It looks like Tony Romo is going to be back this week! Who's excited!? No, I'm not a Cowboys fan. I just get excited at the idea of Romo and Dez finally being fantasy-relevant again. In this article, my FanDuel DFS lineup targets, I will be headlining a few of my top plays on FanDuel […]
Week 11 DraftKings Cheap Tournament Plays: Mark Sanchez, Ronnie Hillman, Zach Ertz, & More!
Week 11 is here and ready to make dreams come true. There aren't any games this week that have projected point totals of over 50 points. The closest we've got is the 49.5 total that the Detroit-Oakland game is offering. This doesn't mean that there isn't cheaper fun to be had though. There is still plenty […]

Daily Fantasy Football Picks and Advice: Week 11 NFL DFS DraftKings Lineups and Sleepers
Welcome to the Week 11 edition of Daily Fantasy Football DraftKings targets. An introduction is not really all that necessary, as the title of this DFS article pretty much sums up what is going to be discussed. It's important to identify players with good matchups, but we also want to look at their DraftKings prices […]
Week 11 DFS Stacks: Matt Ryan-Julio Jones, Tom Brady-Danny Amendola, Tony Romo-Dez Bryant & More
Stacking is a common but important strategy in building DFS lineups, specifically for GPPs (guaranteed prize pools). These major tournaments, like the weekly Millionaire Maker on DraftKings, can have hundreds of thousands of entries, so the idea goes like this: pair a quarterback with a receiver, and if the two connect for 100-plus yards and multiple touchdowns, […]
Spanish La Liga Preview
Arguably the most enticing fixture across Europe this weekend will be the first "El Clasico" installment as Real Madrid host reigning champions Barcelona at the Bernabeu. A normally skill laden, high octane, passionate, contentious and politically charged fixture, it will surely be infused with an even more intense patina this weekend given the tragic events […]

Fantasy Football Buys? Aaron Rodgers, Darren McFadden, Jeremy Hill
The waiver wire isn't the only place to change the course of your season. The right trade can make or break your team. The key is to buy low on cold players, then swap them out once they get hot and their value skyrockets. Everyone knows this method, but that doesn't mean you still can't […]
Thursday Night Matchups: Allen Hurns, Julius Thomas, Delanie Walker & More
Hearing that the Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars have the premier Thursday Night Football time slot would usually draw yawns in years past, but there should be points aplenty this time around. Both are fighting for their playoff lives in the lackluster AFC South, with the Jaguars just a game back of the Colts and the Texans […]
Week 11 Running Back Depth Charts: Jeremy Langford, Charcandrick West, Jay Ajayi and More
Frankly, Week 10 featured a slew of feeble performances from the running back position. It is understandable, considering three of the league's top-10 scoring backs were absent due to their teams' respective byes (Freeman, Gore and Woodhead). The strange part is that the two top scorers of the week were both former backups for star running […]
Antonio Andrews (RB, Ten.) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in 14-team leagues as deep stash Owned in: 49% of Fleaflicker Leagues Analysis: Antonio Andrews is a serviceable back who runs tough, falls forward and punishes tacklers. He's also a slower runner on a bad team who is losing carries to two other backfield mates already (Dexter McCluster and Bishop Sankey), and potentially more […]
Denard Robinson (RB, JAX) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in 14-team leagues as a Yeldon handcuff. Owned in: 26% of Fleaflicker leagues. Analysis: A sprained MCL suffered in Week 2 derailed Denard Robinson's potential time share with rookie T.J. Yeldon. He missed three games with the injury, then returned Week 6 to log a season-high 10 touches against Houston in the one game Yeldon […]
Charles Sims (RB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in 12-team leagues for depth Owned in: 58% of Fleaflicker leagues. Analysis: There was a time during the off-season when some pundits had Charles Sims as the lead back in Tampa Bay. Many who recognized Doug Martin's skill set knew otherwise. Still, Sims has produced when called upon, and is the clear handcuff should […]
Andre Ellington (RB, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add as RB/flex depth OWNED IN: 71% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Arizona Cardinals' shifty third-year back is coming off of his finest game of the season in Sunday night's win over the Seattle Seahawks. Ellington piled up 88 yards from scrimmage on just eight touches (five carries, three receptions), including a game-sealing 48-yard touchdown […]

Week 11 Fantasy Football Fallers: The Bengals Offense, Alshon Jeffery, Emmanuel Sanders & More

Sam Bradford hurt his shoulder and was concussed, though the latest reports have him just […]
