Garrett Graham / Ryan Griffin (TE, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Looking at the upcoming schedule for the Texans, I see favorable matchups for their tight ends Garrett Graham and Ryan Griffin. Graham is the starter, but is banged up so I'll recommend both since I don't know who will be starting this week.  Over […]

Jordan Reed (TE, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ team leagues (PPR) ANALYSIS: This week I’ll be recommending the injury plagued but also very talented Jordan Reed.  I will admit that his matchup this week is not great versus the Rams, but I’m liking his matchup the following week a lot.  With Colt McCoy at quarterback, the Redskins offense has […]

Coby Fleener (TE, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ team leagues  OWNED IN: 71% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  In week 12 Coby Fleener had a prime matchup versus the Jaguars and sadly disappointed many fantasy owners (including me).  With Dwayne Allen out again in week 13, Fleener bounced back in a big way with 4 catches, 127 yards, & 2 TDs.  Looking […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 73% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Delanie Walker is coming off a monster Week 13, having caught five passes for 155 yards against the Eagles.

Jacob Tamme (TE, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Week 12 Streamer if Julius Thomas is Out ANALYSIS: Last week Julius Thomas left the game due to injury and did not return.  With Thomas injured Jacob Tamme received a lot of targets (10) but disappointed (4 catches, 31 yards).  Thomas has been classified as having an ankle injury and was in […]

Niles Paul (TE, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues ANALYSIS: Guess what? Jordan Reed is injured. Is anyone surprised?! I am guessing not, as earlier this season Reed was dealing with a left hamstring; now his right hamstring is tweaked. While Reed was out Niles Paul filled in nicely. So far Paul has had a career best […]

Coby Fleener (TE, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED IN: 51% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Last week the Indianapolis Colts were hit with the injury bug by losing Dwayne Allen & Ahmad Bradshaw.  With the injury to Allen, Coby Fleener became the 1 man TE show and he exploded.  Fleener was efficient (7 targets, 7 catches) and productive 144 yards (21 yards/catch). […]

Austin Seferian-Jenkins (TE, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Being penalized for a touchdown celebration means Seferian-Jenkins had to have scored a touchdown in Tampa Bay's Week 10 loss to Atlanta. It was the second score of the second-round pick's rookie campaign. His eight targets and five receptions were both career highs, […]

Week 11 Tight Ends: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Whats up ballers? The season has come and gone, and now we're nearly 3 or 4 weeks away from the fantasy football playoffs. Are you ready? My recommendations starting next week will be more long term focused to account for your focus on the playoffs. While tight ends are very unpredictable week to week, and it’s […]

Kyle Rudolph / Chase Ford (TE, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 48% / 1% Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Kyle Rudolph hopes to return this week against the Bears. Whether he does or does not, I want to stream the Vikings starting TE this week against the Bears. For whatever reason Chicago has been obliterated by opposing tight ends lately, […]

Jared Cook (TE, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues (Bye Week Fill-In) OWNED IN: 35% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: On the season Cook has averaged 43 yards per game (~4 catches/game) which is decent in PPR leagues.  The problem with Cook is he hasn’t found the end zone this season and has watched fellow teammate Lance Kendricks […]

Kyle Rudolph (TE, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 48% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Last week I wrote about Kyle Rudolph and I’ll mention him one last time before it is too late.  The past two seasons Rudolph has battled injuries that have impacted his performance on the field.  Like Owen Daniels, Rudolph has an offensive […]

Larry Donnell (TE, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 57% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This week I’ll continue the recommendation of Larry Donnell as he continues to produce decently.  The past 2 weeks Donnell has averaged (6.5 STD or 12.5 PPR) fantasy points.  This week Donnell has a nice matchup vs the Seahawks (7th most points […]

Mychal Rivera (TE, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues for Week 10 OWNED IN: 26% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Mychal Rivera is perhaps the hottest tight end in football over the past two weeks, and is one of our favorite sleepers and waiver wire streamers for Week 10. Derek Carr is coming into his own and is beginning to […]

Owen Daniels (TE, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues (PPR and Standard) OWNED IN: 48% owned in Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: In Week 9, I was hopeful that Owen Daniels would have a big game.  To my surprise and I’m sure many others Daniels had his knee scoped and did not play.  Surprisingly last week he came back and produced with […]

Week 10 Tight Ends: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

What's up everyone?  We are now over half way thru the season and hopefully you're team is shaping up for a playoff spot.  As you probably have seen this season when it comes to picking tight ends they are very unpredictable week to week, and it’s especially difficult to get consistent results from outside the […]

Kyle Rudolph (TE, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

 BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (Standard, PPR) 49% owned in Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Kyle Rudolph is a player who has disappointed fantasy owners more than once a year for the past two seasons.  Rudolph is currently out with a sports hernia, but he's due back in Week 11, and he has the intangibles to be a good player.  […]

Clay Harbor (TE, JAX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE:  Streamer for Week 9 in 12+ team leagues (PPR) 11% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Clay Harbor is my streamer and deep-league choice of the week.  Harbor will be facing a Cincinnati Bengals defense which has allowed the most fantasy points to opposing tight ends, and which generally struggles against the pass (ranked 23rd).  Harbor has shown […]

Tim Wright (TE, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues, continue monitoring in shallower formats 17% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Wright is someone I'd reserve for deeper leagues.  Last week, he showed what he is capable of (seven catches for 61 yards and a TD), but the problem is that he hasn't got a lot of opportunity.  Over the season, he's received […]

Larry Donnell (TE, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Owned in 57% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This week, my number one tight end recommendation off the waiver wire is Larry Donnell.  He's coming off a bye week and should be refreshed.  With that extra rest, Donnell will be playing a Colts defense that allowed 112 yards and a TD to Heath Miller last week.  Donnell […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep 14+ Team Leagues for Week 8 Owned in 10% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: As you might guess, there isn’t much available to those streaming tight ends, but I do actually like Austin Seferian-Jenkins quite a bit. He had his best game of the year in Week 6, and now coming off the bye, […]

Dwayne Allen (TE, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues Owned in 69% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Coby Fleener was drafted in 2012 to continue to be Andrew Luck's safety blanket, but since coming into the league, whenever healthy, Dwayne Allen has been the more reliable target for the young superstar quarterback. With 21 receptions on 33 targets, Allen's […]

Owen Daniels (TE, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues 46% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Owen Daniels is coming off a great game versus Atlanta with 6 catches (on 9 targets) 58 yards and a TD. This week he'll be facing the Cincinnati Bengals who give up the most fantasy points to opposing tight ends.  I anticipate that Daniels will have […]

Charles Clay (TE, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE:  Stream in 12+ team leagues in Week 8 37% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Charles Clay has a nice a matchup versus the Jacksonville Jaguars who have allowed the 4th most fantasy points to opposing TEs. Clay, who is coming off a solid game versus Chicago, (4 catches, 58 yards and 1 TD) will look to build momentum […]

Dwayne Allen (TE, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team PPR / Standard Leagues Owned in 65% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: My number one tight end recommendation this week is heavily owned, but not nearly heavily enough.
